daveP: Rohr will definitely try the 3-5-2 in one of our group games.. that's where having 4 CBs will be necessary.. 4 FBs too will b necessary.. |

Training Report : Iwobi Shines In Eagles Training , Uzoho Top Goalkeeper In Shooting Drills ![]() The Super Eagles of Nigeria had their first training session as a group today in preparation for their upcoming pre World Cup friendly game against Congo DR in Port Hacourt. Owngoalnigeria.com correspondent was at the session which had four goalkeepers and 12 outfield players in attendance and lasted close to two hours at the training pitch of the Godswill Akpabio Stadium. Arsenal midfielder Alex Iwobi showed his abilities during a close game among the players with his vision and ability to get out of tight spaces very much the hallmark of his performance. The goalkeepers were not left out of the session with coach Enrico Pionetti taking them on shooting exercise after some drills to help them warm up properly for the exercise. Deportivo La Coruna B goalkeeper Francis Odinaka Uzoho impressed the most with his reflexes particularly when it comes to parry shots away, while Ezenwa appears a bit slow in reacting after making a punched save. Daniel Akpeyi was also not far off in making saves off efforts and from our counts made the second highest save after Uzoho who stopped more efforts during the drills. **Osas Mahawi Source: http://owngoalnigeria.com/2018/05/23/training-report-iwobi-shines-in-eagles-training-uzoho-top-goalkeeper-in-shooting-drils/ Russia 2018 WC Countdown: 21 days 23 hours 13 mins to go |

daveP: I strongly believe that we won't be worried about Aina being dropped for Echijele if he (Aina) had done better in the games he has played.. Ebuehi made his debit after Aina and has played fewer minutes but he has already shown us what he can offer..even Idowu managed to score on his debut,thus giving Rohr the impression that he got something good to offer too.. but Aina is yet to make an impact that place him in competition with Echijele... As bad as Echijele might be,he might be selected based on his experience.. its left to Aina to grab the opportunity in the next two friendlies... 1 Like |

More Camp reports From the first training session held, Ebuehi trained with the rest of the team. Meanwhile, Ndidi trained alone. His recuperation continues. |

Lol... not really because of the Four CBs. Look at the fullback positions too... we have five fullbacks: Shehu, Ebuehi, Aina, Idowu, Echiejile. I believe only four will make it. daveP: |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by daveP(m): 4:52pm On May 23, 2018 |
Danielnino00:Yeah, I'm aware of the formation already. But taking 8defrnders is just excess to me.... 15 spots for the remaining 3sections of the complete team. Unless the sacrificial lamb is from the goalkeeping department, then I don't really that 8all going. Haba now. More like GK-3 at most or 2 if 1is sacrificed Df-7, or 8, as your stance is Mid-6. This is the least for the middle. Attack-7, less 1 That's how I'm seeing this. |

Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by TheSuperNerd(m): 5:03pm On May 23, 2018 |
One will drop from the left back position. Aina, Idowu and Echiejile are in contention there. Shehu and Ebuehi are for the right back position. daveP: |

daveP:First of all, as per FIFA rule,all teams must present a squad with three goalkeepers,no more,no less.. Most teams will actually be going with more defenders than midfielders unless some forwards are listed as midfielders... Going with 8 defenders isn't a problem at all especially given the fact that all our fullbacks are versatile.. as for the midfield, I think we have seen enough of that already.. it's clear that majority of our midfielders out there are DMF.. no need to add an extra dmf.. should Joel obi make the list, then it will be 6 midfielder and 6 forwards... 1 Like |

charlesemeka85: You're not being fair with Kayode, how many games and time did he play with Girona and how come he's done well since he went to Shaktar? know that the latter is way better than the former.. BTW, which position did he play at Girona? Not saying he should be at Russia but to say he flopped is untrue. A flop is a player given enough play time and used in the right position, yet consistently performs woefully. Can you relate this to Kayode? 1 Like |

somehow: He will never bench stuani and he is not better than stuani we all know that,they play a 5-3-2 formation,why cant he bench the other striker? I am not saying he is a bad player,please can you push this question you just ask me to forgiveness because he is in a better position to answer |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by TheSuperNerd(m): 5:47pm On May 23, 2018 |
Yes... Or two sef... The possibility of going with just three fullbacks is there as they would be versatile too and can cover for one another. But again I see Rohr going with 4 FBs and then also Four CBs. He invited 10 defenders.. And I see him dropping two. But hey... Like I said, He may shock me and drop three and we go with 7. But until then. ![]() daveP: |

somehow: So being a player of the week just once change a player from being a flop? Clap for your self The same forgiveness called nwakali a flop for only scoring 4 goals all season and he his a midfielder,but the same kayode scored 4 goals all season and he is not a flop, player of the week look like a trophy in your eyes. 2 Likes |

And he repeated the feat by being on the team of the month in Ukraine within few weeks of moving there. meaning if he had more playing time in Girona + being played at the right position, he would have done well too. Ignore sentiments. Not saying he should be in Russia, that is left to the coach which has already phased him out but the truth remain what is it. the truth. andrew444: 1 Like |

You can push it to him yourself, i only corrected a notion from your comment. That he didn't bench the other guy can only be answered by the coach as we can all see that he's actually good after proving that in Shaktar. andrew444: 1 Like |
