discusant:Playing England now is the best time. At least it will reflect a last minute change to the soon to submit 25 man list to FIFA. It was Coach Gernot Rohr intention all the while. Though he was still hoping that Simon Moses may get fit before the Croatia match. Had we played Czech Republic first and won, we may be carried away thinking that we've arrived. |

THIS IS A SE TEAM WITH POTENTIALS. The first half selection by the referee was deliberate and he saw exactly the performance he expected to see and we could tell with his second half substitutions . I still have a problem with moses , his position is very vital for creating goal chances, I feel musa would have shown more bite if started. moses is slow, weak and for me not dribbly enough to be a hazard if you know what I mean. I am confident the coach knows his starting eleven and I won't be surprised to see them start against the Czech Republic come June 6th. Go SE, go SOAR 3 Likes |

If Genort Rohr is truly sincere. He would go with my first 11 as shown below. Ikechukwu Ezenwa Tyronne Ebuehi Troost Ekong Leon Balogun Bryan Idowu Victor Moses Wilfred Ndidi Oghenekaro Etebo Alex Iwobi Odion Ighalo Kelechi Iheanacho 1 Like |

[quote author=CSTR1003 post=68120882]Defence and goal keeping which was supposed to be our weakness looks decent. Our midfield and attack need to get Sharper. Rohr should never play two defensive midfielders ever again to avoid the calamitous game we had in the first half . Anyway, it is a friendly. It was promising from the super eagles. [/quote Our goal keeper is still weak. what happened to the second goal? |

samtol4: It isn't just the goalies. Our players have never been good at defending set pieces. I can almost say that 70% of the goals we've conceded at the World Cup since 1994 have been through set pieces. 1 Like |

bedspread:You'd appreciate John ogu more if he's given the right space to operate behind a creative midfielder. Shehu Abdullahi is inarguably one of the best the team has. Back-to-back, he was our man of the match in the qualifiers. You can't use a single game to judge him now. He wasn't available in our match against Serbia, the ebuehi you prefer "flopped", but he did well today. Besides, shehu was fasting. I really pity onazi. He's so heavy now and "irresponsive". He'd still make it to the WC though. |

my opinion about the game 1.uzoho is good but still needs more game time and test games to boost his confidence 2. the well praised partnership of balogun and ekong was tested today and I'll say that they disappointed with Leon not living up to expectation 3. my beloved ebuehi should start at the world cup. that bro offers a lot while going forward and does well compared to shehu. 4. onazi and Joel obi failed again, they struggled to keep possession and string passes together correctly. they did same against Congo and now the same thing 5. idowu is a little better than echiejile reason being that he knows how to support attack and defend as well 6. iwobi should never be deployed to the wings again. he does well centrally. And ndidi is needed in the team in terms of ball winning and keeping possession 7.ighalo is a good finisher as evident in the way he controlled that iwobi's pass and hit the woodwork 8. Mikel needs to be more of a Yaya toure for Nigeria in terms of surging forward with the ball and making good decisions when he gets to the final-third 9. rohr is a good tactician 10. if not for onazi and Joel's woeful perfomaces, we would'nt have looked foolish in the first half. Lastly john ogu is good. I like his body movement and confidence on the ball 3 Likes |
