Icon4s:Those same facts are why I will repeat that it can be argued. Even among many here Iwobi has been recognised to have more impact coming in a sub. So what if Rohr decides to use him as a joker again? Can you predict that? Did you envisage him coming off the bench against Zambia? It's all judgment and as it stands it can tilt either way for the two of them depending on a lot of factors. 2 Likes 1 Share |

With respect to the players in the team, I can mention some monikers that you can hardly tell where they are from based on their utterances as regards player selection etc.. what makes you a tribalist is the the behavior that stems from that strong loyalty to your tribe, not the loyalty itself, or as it is in your definition, an advocate or practitioner. I want players from my social group to do well (and that's not advocacy). However, if they are not measuring up I will say it as it is. So how am I tribalistic? Just say your are a tribalist and stop trying to rope everyone in. Where are you from by the way, so we can mark you. ykalhaji: 1 Like |

MetalJigsaw: we need to play very direct against Argentina, no need for much game play in the midfield. just like last year we can out run them at the back and get goals |

Mujtahida: Its very clear that Simon will not start ahead of a fit Iwobi. Rohr started him against Zambia just to retain the team momentum. |

Martz101:Abi, wetin you want make I talk? But regardless of the goal he made an instant impact in the team. Iwobi suffered a dip in form just some time before the double header. I doubt if Rohr would have used him as a starter even if he were fit. Him fit withstand cameroun gri gri football? |

Mujtahida: There in no tactics employed by Rohr that will start Simon ahead of Iwobi,for now....They are not fighting for shirt. Simon is not an integral part of the team because he can be easily replaced and forgotten,on the other hand Iwobi is one of our best players. 1 Like |

Martz101:Abeg kindly remind me of those games where both of them were available. I can remember Algeria tie and maybe first leg against Zambia. Beyond that it's mixed. I no sabi mathematics but the odds in favour of saying Iwobi will start as a matter of fact over Simon is negligible. That's why I said it's arguable. If it were so clear cut like Victor Moses I no go argue. But based on how things played out you can't say for sure. That's my point. |

Iwobi excels well when he plays as a No. 10 or SS. He's a brilliant attacking Midfieder, very good on the Ball, can dictate the tempo of the Team-play and certainly effective at connecting Defence to the Attack. I would rather start Simon on the Wing and reserve Iwobi on the Bench as a Joker, also as a direct replacement for Mikel. Do we get another creative Player in the Team aside from Mikel presently? So we want to put both our finest Eggs in the same Basket?! Starting a Match ain't the most Important thing, rather being Effective regardless to the Minutes played. Sokjaer is regarded a Legend at Manchester United not because he's a Starter, rather a super-Sub. We ain't the Coach, and we ain't in his Brain nor part of his Backroom Staff, hence we can't conclude or decide the Lineup authoritatively. 2 Likes |

OMANBALA1:You don dey enter another argument with the bolded ooo. Simon is not an integral part of the team? Is this supported by the facts? It has passed but I doubt strongly if Rohr would have used Iwobi against Cameroon even if he were fit. Why did he fall back on Ighalo who had not even played a single match in the WCQ for the double header? Do you think Iwobi would have fared well in that match? Let me give you an insight as to why I think even if Iwobi were fit he would not have started. Check out the match between Nig and Zambia in Uyo. Leaving Iwobi on the bench was very deliberate. I repeat very deliberate. It was strategy. Moses was to start. Run the Zambians ragged and tire them out. Iwobi came in when those guys were a softened as per tiredness and his impact was immediate. If you judge as per the nature of the opponents we'd face at the WC and say Iwobi is likely to be the starter, I no go argue but to say it as a done deal I no gree. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

OMANBALA1: Simon Moses can play the wing comfortably well with accurate crosses better than Ahmed Musa , He ;s also deadly when it comes to counter attack cos of his speed and ability to dribble (dont forget his show me your number dribbling ) he can take set pieces accurately well, in fact , he has scored on different occasions . he is very dangerous in the 18yard box . so tell me why we dont need him ?baring injury he will be at the world cup 1 Like 1 Share |

Mujtahida: Oga, Rohr choosed to start Simon ahead of Iwobi against Zambia in Uyo because he opted not to change his Cameroon winning team. And Iwobi came in and made the difference reminding Rohr that he is still favorite. Did Simon ever start ahead of Iwobi in our subsequent games? |
