against iceland rohr should deploy the 3-5-2 formation and if done we stand a huge chance winning the match.the icelanders are compact and highly disciplined side but lacks creativity will lack creativity to subdue our midfield if we have move bodies there. i forsee them relying mainly on dead balls to score. iwobi and iheanacho if paired together up front will cause a lot of problems to the iceland defenders with their speed, understanding and trickerery. mikel and ndidi should shield the back 3 whereas the former will serve as an auxiliary centre back then etebo with is lungs and power should be deployed as a box to box midfielder. moses should play as a left wingback while ebuehi should be the right wingback. the trio of ekong, balogun and ogu should be the central defenders. uzoho ekong balogun ogu ebuehi ndidi mikel moses etebo iwobi iheanacho 8 Likes 3 Shares |

We were doing well before we conceded that own goal. Ighalo did have few chances but his shots lacks power. Even Iwobi hits them more than he does and he grased out quickly and stopped pressing. |

mank1234:We were busy here fighting the negativity of our own resident pessimists but we failed to detect the more serious negativity of Rohr. Excuses are the favorite sport of losers and weaklings. We are average. FACT. but does that mean we should get run over? No. And other less fancied teams have proven to us that a WC team should fight. It's the WC for God sakes. Serve up something!! You said self believe is paramount. Bro, you just re-echoed the first of the seven hermetic principles which is mentality. Once the mental frame work is wrong, it's just a matter of time before everything collapses. If it is right, it's just a matter of time for everything to pull through. I repeat:Rohr has poisoned the mind of the team. 6 Likes |

Iwobi is the key to us unlocking any defense. Mikel seems to be only good with long balls which are only effective against African sides. Our opponents are taller than us. I hope Rohr deploys Iwobi to the AMF or Pair him with Nacho up front. 4 Likes |

charlesemeka85: ![]() Easy Bro, how did you come to this Conclusion - that the Iceland Team lacks creativity? So sigurdsson and other Midfielders in the Team ain't creative?! Any Fact to prove it?? i forsee them relying mainly on dead balls to score. iwobi and iheanacho if paired together up front will cause a lot of problems to the iceland defenders with their speed, understanding and trickerery. ![]() Chief Coach...... another Fallacy. Has Iwobi ever played as SS for the Eagles, specifically behind Iheanacho as the leading Striker?! Who dash Iwobi speed Sir?! Even Iheanacho ain't a real pacy Player. Understanding you say? On or off the Pitch?! mikel and ndidi should shield the back 3 whereas the former will serve as an auxiliary centre back then etebo with is lungs and power should be deployed as a box to box midfielder. ![]() Master Tactician.......... which one be auxiliary Center Back ni tori Olohun. Mikel as an auxiliary CB?! Kada Kada Sir. moses should play as a left wingback while ebuehi should be the right wingback. the trio of ekong, balogun and ogu should be the central defenders. ![]() Senior Manager........ and you will be comfortable with two slow CBs in a 3 at the back Formation?! Even ready to experiment a Player as slow as Ogu in a must win Match?! uzoho ![]() Lord..... how do you plan to win with this Setup and Lineup?! Ogu at the back?! Etebo as a No. 10?! Iwobi as a SS and Iheanacho as the lead Striker?! LMAO. Bruh, we will be tactically disgraced, nullified, and brutally massacred by Icelanders.

TheSuperNerd: I stand for equity, fair-play, transparency, and a level playing field. An objective unit of measurement for all players assessment and selection. Instead what we have is subjective personal judgement based on double standard parameters in player selection. Youth U17 football is not senior professional football even in England the larger majority of boys who play U17 end up not playing professional football. However, we assume that once you have played U17 then you have made it and even use it as a measure for the present continous. Leveraging past glories for present quality measurement. Your approach is divisive and excludes based on your bigoted prejudiced discrimination towards players not born in Nigeria. You essentially call them Non - Nigerians that debased approach is where tribalism, nepotism and favouritism are birthed. In a sense the problem with our country. You use the term "Our own" and that essentially excludes people like me and players not born in Nigeria. It's the same reasoning we vote for corrupt politicians who fleece us dry because they are "Our own" so somebody comes from my village who is intrinsically corrupt and devoid of any righteousness I therefore vote for them because they are "Our own". The attributes of heart = determination, passion, desire, belief and the will to win are not the exclusive preserve of youthful or older players or is determined by the league you play in. Nonetheless, you can not substitute these still essential ingredients for the other ingredients of technical ability, athleticism, football intelligence and team work, you need them all. Then can you tell me how you measure these most subjective of attributes, that are extremely fluid and continously changing depending on circumstances. The Odogbolu comparison is on the subject of motivation not player quality, so keep matters in context. A team of Fired up never say die "big heart warriors" will amount to nothing without quality. It's the application of the aforementioned right attitude attributes to your existing top quality football ability, that is what will give you VICTORY. When I see supposed youth like yourself not holding on to the attributes of righteousness and fair-play. I'm not suprised, unfortunately we have very few examples in our every day lives in Nigeria of these most noble of attributes . So it seems difficult for many like yourself to comprehend. 2 Likes |

AIG07: I disagree with you strongly. KC will not have the physicality to trouble the Icelandic defence. Furthermore, KC is not a player to go it alone he may try to use pace which he has but it's not blistering add to that he is not that comfortable using skill one on one to beat his man. Playing KC behind Ighalo is more effective. The Icelandic team is very physical we will to be Robust. I haven't seen much of Simi so Im not sure if he could pair with Ighalo. Correct me if wrong he doesn't seem particularly fast or tricky. Mikel is a better option in DM with Etebo and Ndidi more forward facing. Giving Ebuehi the option to use his pace to trouble the Icelandic defence. I am looking at the 3-5-2 formation I expect early substitutions to keep up a relentless pace and attack until the last minute of extra time. I see no place for Shehu in this formation even as a sub. Ogu big question marks on his pace however, I watched Ekong and Balogun get bullied by the physicality of the Croatians. In this regard I am almost certain NOBODY will bully Ogu. It's now ALL or NOTHING it has to be ALL OUT ATTACK. Otherwise na house we deh go. 1 Like |

We don't have to use strength to break defences we need clever attackers. Till the time Ighalo was subbed off he never won a single ball with his strength. Of what use is strength when you can't use it. We don't have strikers like Costa that will fight for every aerial lballs. You will only see Ighalo standing and backing defenders. If Rohr starts him, we will not score. 8 Likes |

I suggest we use this formation for the 3-5-2. It slightly similar to the formation The Good Joe suggested a few weeks ago but I modified it a little. I put Balogun in the middle because he seems to struggle against players with pace. Iheanacho is on the left because I noticed he likes to shoot with his left foot, but he and Moses can switch positions if its most suitible for the team. 1 Like
