BEER PARLOUR PEOPLE....HOW UNA BE

Kalapizim:
that's the point, opposition teams may not see it coming.

How good is he there that's the issue. Remember we have enough wingers already.

Mujtahida:
Lokosa on the wings. Hmmmm another Uzoenyi

how is lokosa another uzoenyi?

tbaba1234:
Sebastian Ogenna Osigwe with his father.

His club won the division 3 title in Switzerland. Another goalkeeper to keep an eye on post WC.

Division 3 in Switzerland. What an insult to all those keepers of the Nigerian local league.

Martz101:


how is lokosa another uzoenyi?

On the wings. That's the operative word.

Kog45:
Eagles starting lineup against DR Congo barely last minute change

1.Uzoho.. to boost his confidence

2.Ebuehi... picked to determine his fitness

3.Echiejile.. to ascertain his readiness since he had poor season.

4.Onazi...also to test his fitness

5.Balogun.... to ascertain his fitness since he is just coming back from injury

6.Ekong.....need to be in shape due to his bench role at the tail end of the season.

7.Lokosa....Rohr want to see want he can offer.

8.Joel........ his fitness level in question,so need this natch to prove he is fit.

9.Simy........He just need this match to prove a point

10.Etebo.....just back from injury, Rohr want to see his fitness.

11.Iheanacho...Had a good camp training as winger so Rohr want to see more of it and not really satisfied with his 7 starts of the season.

Rohr picked this XI majorly to ascertain the fitness level of players just coming back from injuries and players that lack playing time.

With this decision Rohr is a good manager cos this will expose players who are trying to hide their state of fitness.

Nice list. Joel as the AM I guess. And what formation is it

Aw cab rohr play lokosa on d wings and expect him to perform,make God kam catch make lokosa score two goals from dt position tmao

Mujtahida:

On the wings. That's the operative word.

Uzoenyi was not a striker, he was a winger and played as a winger so why the comparison

forgiveness:


Open eyes. Etebo plays there mostly.

Last season stats

Yes sir but I don't think we can rely on him there,everybody knows etebo is versatile

forgiveness:



Victor Moses is our Messi or Ronaldo to Argentina and Portugal respectively.

na so broo

Iheanacho training goal through Awaziem's legs...

Farzat:
I sympathize with Simon Moses. He really deserve to be in Russia. Maybe his enemies and those journalists writing trash about him should be satisfied now. Meanwhile Etebo should be his best replacement for d LW position for now. Etebo played d LW position at d Olympics and was very dangerous there. He has no business in d middle of d field for d SE, LW should be d best position to utilize his energy, defensive n attacking abilities. But if we need a winger that offers something different, then Onyekuru should be invited if he's fully fit. As for Musa, we know he cant start any match, we also know he cant make any positive difference from d bench yet nobody is talking about dropping him.

you opinion though, musa is a very good player and did not make the team by sentiment. hopefully he will prove you wrong

OMANBALA1:


Against Cameroon Ighalo could have scored 2 goals if it wasn't for Victor Moses. Ighalo can score a lot of goals if the players around him can understand his style...If Ighalo blends with Nacho as a support striker it will prove deadly. Ighalo will never click with Victor Moses...He needs to be paired with Nacho or Iwobi ,players with more vision and less dribble.

i don't know the problem you have with moses but is legendary, moses can't be drop because ighalo is not compactable with him

andrew444:

Simon will not be at the World Cup ? Where did you get the news ?
Etebo playing at left wing ? You must be kidding.

that's his natural position

Mujtahida:

I no dey for am. I dey hide since but make I talk am oha: I no dey for Lokosa oo

Hahahahahaha! Chai! Lokosa!

BN: Carl Ikeme to be 24th unregistered player on SE World Cup roster

World Cup: Gernot Rohr reveals 24th player to make Super Eagles team
Published on May 27, 2018
By John Owen Nwachukwu

Super Eagles coach, Gernot Rohr has revealed the 24th player that would be in Eagles’ team in the 2018 World Cup in Russia.


Rohr said that Wolverhampton Wanderers’ goalkeeper, Carl Ikeme, will be part of Nigeria’s squad at the 2018 World Cup, but as the unregistered twenty- fourth player.

Nigeria have included an extra player on their roster in previous editions of the World Cup, with former coaches, Clemens Westerhof and Festus Onigbinde taking Tijani Babangida and Peter Odemwingie to USA 1994 and Korea/Japan 2002 respectively.


Carl Ikeme, who is currently recovering from illness, played in the second round of the African World Cup qualifiers against Swaziland and was in goal when Nigeria beat Zambia away in their first game of the third round.

Rohr told reporters, ”Until the last moment, there is a possibility of bringing in these players.

“Carl Ikeme will be our 24th player to the World Cup.”


The Franco-German also explained why the Super Eagles chose Uyo as their training camp ahead of their friendly match with England.

He added, ”All the time we play in Uyo, we felt at home. We brought the pre-World Cup camp to Uyo, to remind the fans that we started here.”

OPPONENT WATCH:

Otemendi cops groin injury in training

Modified
Una go dey click like.. It's not a serious groin injury.

minfelix:
I think victor moses should get injured and miss the world cup so that some people can rest here...I've bin silently following people's comment here about that its jus becoming something else..some 1 said "I becoming to hate victor moses", some will say he's too selfish, you people just wanna force gernot rohr to have issues with him by all means..a top class player with a top class club na him una jus dey run down for here, some are even wishing onyekuru to displace him in SE squad...e be like say una kno no say afta Mikel,onazi,musa na moses follow for that team...he's selfish, he's a bully bla bla bla!!! God has given us such a direct opponent running down player yet na so so bad mouth ppl dey bad mouth am

no mind them, moses was our top scorer in the qualifiers despite playing lesser matches

One match can decide a team fate in the world cup. Rohr should please know this before he takes any injured players to the world Cup. .

I concur

Martz101:


that's his natural position

Okay bro if you say so,I have checked it and that's true

BascoVanVeli:


There is no arrogance this is something you are making up. Against Poland all the fks were for right footers. In my mind Nacho was our set piece taker until he pulled that stunt against SA. In reality he is lucky to even be on the team let alone be an option which he still is. You can believe that Moses forcefully takes all our set pieces, the coach obviously made that decision that he is number one.

against poland we had just 3 freekicks from good range, moses took 1,iheanacho toom 1 and ekong took 1 too, make una calm down on moses

Oasis007:
There is no need for Replacement, cos Rohr still gets 6 more Players to drop from the List. Lokosa might eventually gate-crash and becomes a good Ambassador for the NPFL at the Mundial.

Let's trust Rohr's Decision, whatever he decides with the List so be it.

About the list. Simon us one of the core players. In the team. That's the issue.

markfem2:


The victor moses i watch on tv no dey like cooperate. Reminds me of Jay Jay. Only difference is that Jay Jay plays to the gallery.

what do you understand by Jay Jay plays to the gallery?

andrew444:


Yes sir but I don't think we can rely on him there,everybody knows etebo is versatile

Well, all I can say is, that is his best position.

i don't see ekong, ebuehi and balogun starting this game and even joel

Martz101:


Uzoenyi was not a striker, he was a winger and played as a winger so why the comparison

If what I said is not clear to you I can't explain it ooo. Did you not read where it was suggested that Lokosa should be played as a winger?

Mujtahida:

Habaaa. He shouldn't oo. A player is injured, he is injured. No be by force. He should be replaced.

Just heard from Brila FM that Simon would miss the WC. Hope its not true.

tbaba1234:


Not true, We could have rapped up qualification in Yaounde but Moses was at his selfish best that day.. He is still a vital player though. He makes things happen..

even you baba what of moses exploit in making us qualify

Mujtahida:

If what I said is not clear to you I can't explain it ooo. Did you not read where it was suggested that Lokosa should be played as a winger?

lokosa playing in the wing is wrong because his a striker but uzoenyi was a winger and played in the wing.

so why the comparison sir?

tbaba1234:

You are promoting Swiss division 3 players.
Nigerians have a serious self esteem issue with respect to the west. Aren't there players in your local league you may promote?
From the time I have spent on Nairaland, I have come to the conclusion that a lot of Nigerians would reject anything that bears the logo of Africa. One needs to learn the alphabet in Europe for many Nigerians to believe the person knows the alphabet.
How sad!
