ChrisKels:. Yes, Francis-uzoho is the second choice goalkeeper but he always mistakenly finds himself in the third tier league on match day instead of making the bench as second choice goalkeeper always does. I think it is a new tradition in Football for second choice goalkeeper to find themselves in another league on match day but it only exist in your fantacy. Bravo. What position is Francis-uzoho in that snapshot? Oga, na you no dey talk true. 2 Likes

forgiveness: That snapshot is not according to the ranking. It is alphabetical order. Ruben is the number 1 and that was not indicated in the snapshot. Uzoho is 4th choice but it is not because of that snapshot. When Ruben was out, Uzoho was the team's third choice. 2 Likes |

Etebo Jack Of All Trades, Master Of All: Most Fouled Player & Most Accurate Passer Vs Barca Published: March 01, 2018 Industrious Nigeria international Oghenekaro Etebo worked his socks off as Las Palmas were held to a 1-1 draw by La Liga pacesetters Barcelona at Estadio de Gran Canaria on Thursday night. Messi scored from a free-kick to open the scoring for the visitors on 21 minutes, but Jonathan Calleri calmly converted a penalty kick to equalize for La Union Deportiva two minutes into the second half. Etebo and his teammates completely stifled the offense of Barcelona with a strong defensive performance for the remainder of the game. According to statistics from Whoscored.com, the Super Eagles star was the most fouled Las Palmas player on the pitch, winning four fouls, double the figure of Vicente Gómez and Jonathan Calleri, who drew two fouls each. Etebo was the most accurate with the ball at his feet of all the 14 players in action for Las Palmas, finishing the game with a passing accuracy of 92 percent to place first ahead of Vicente Gómez with 86.8 percent. Against Malaga on his debut, he had a passing accuracy of 84.9 percent, Leganes 77.8 percent, Sevilla 74.5 percent and Athletic Bilbao 87.2 percent, meaning he set a new personal record against Barcelona since his arrival in Spain in the winter transfer market. This season, the former Warri Wolves star has been deployed at central midfield, attacking midfield, center forward, left winger and support striker. Oghenekaro Etebo's form will please Super Eagles manager Gernot Rohr, who has named the versatile midfielder on the roster for the friendlies against Poland and Serbia later this month.

I just dreamt that we defeated all of the countries in our group. In addition we qualified for the quarter finals only to be defeated. Despite how far we went in the world cup coach rorh resigned due to criticism from the fans. |

tbaba1234:I'm so thrilled about Etebo's performance.I read he was the MOTM in a game that had Messi, Rakitic, Iniesta, Paulinho. I'd quite put him down as one who might not make the cut to Russia but he seems to be blooming in Spain. But is it that Rohr has not found a way to utilise this guy? Cos in the SE, he seems to be jack of all trades, master of none. The ANS article says he's been deployed as CM, AM, LW so far for Las Palmas. And these are the positions he's played in the Super Eagles. The only match he really shone was the match against Algeria in Uyo. Since he's been flat. Awful against SA and lost against Algeria in our last WCQ match. Etebo is Amokachi. Let Rohr find a way to unleash his energy. Our midfield is full of so many options for Rohr. I am happy that we have Joel Obi coming in for the friendlies. Whatever happens abeg let John Ogu go to this WC. Sentiments abi? But it's justified abeg. The guy need am. Agu can wait. 1 Like |

tbaba1234:Tbaba you are a real guy here and God bless you for your analyticals on football issues. Pls does Uzoho being number 4 at his age and keeping week in week out disturb his chances in Eagles?NO but stating it is an offence and they see it as berating but that's the TRUTH for now The message was that Deportivo was not fair to sign another keeper on loan when they have young promising keeper who already had two LA liga appearances but i wonder why some are always finding it difficult to understand simple comments. Good that you stated it out in a very simpler manner that a novice in football would understand better. ..... not some online rats who always believe some players are important to their life than the rest of us and only way to express their opinions is to come out like a mad cow on social media thinking we all carried the same mentally disorder syndrome. |

forgiveness:Mikel Agu?not convincing so far in Eagles GWG. I think Rohr just have to do justice to the midfield cos for now we have three untouchable,MIKEL,NDIDI,ONAZI but Ogu had Algeria and Argentina match going for him irrespective of any midfielder form in his club. .....now we are having Etebo back in a great form in LA liga and also a talented Joel Obi is back and also Mikel Agu which means the midfield is a war zone and only performance in eagles jersey would determines who is going to make it especially between Etebo,Ogu,Agu and Joel Obi. 1 Like |

Kog45:.. Agu is a DMF. He's not a CMF and he's not up against Etebor and Joel Obi who are attacker and CMF respectively. Rohr just needs to decide the components to form his midfield. He needs to decide on how many CMF, DMF and AMF he needs in his team and I think that will determine who goes or stays. Besides, I still don't see Etebor as a DMF or CMF because yesterday I didn't see any spectacular thing he did. He was just strolled when he was without the ball and ran vertically at players whenever he was with the ball. The boy is an attacker at best.... However, many match Agu don play for Eagles wey em no impress? |
