When I was in Joebie's room, I saw this exact fixture prediction map. He tipped Cameroun to knock Nigeria out. Tips Algeria to knock out Egypt and so on....

So this is definitely Joebie's

I’ll sack Rohr if I were NFF boss – Odegbami

Sodiq Oyeleke

Former national team captain, Segun Odegbami, says he would have sacked Gernot Rohr after Nigeria’s 2-0 defeat to Madagascar at the ongoing Africa Cup of Nations if he were the Nigeria Football Federation boss.

Odegbami, a guest on Channels TV programme, Sunrise Daily, on Monday faulted Rohr’s attitude during Nigeria’s matches, saying the coach was “too relaxed” even when the Nigerian team were losing.

The ‘Mathematical’ Odegbami advised the NFF to consider a vocal coach in their next appointment.
“If I was in charge of Nigerian football, Gernot Rohr would have been on his way home,” Odegbami said during the interview.

“I’m sorry that is a bit harsh, but you could see how he selected players, particularly in that match against Madagascar. We could have been out of this competition now, because of his selection of players for that match.

“See coaches like Jurgen Klopp, Jose Mourinho, they are the 12th players. They are by the side of the field, they are directing their players.


They are shouting on referees, they are doing things. That is the sort of thing Nigerian players need.

“Nigerian players don’t want somebody who will just sit quietly and not say a word. They won’t hear his voice. You won’t help them with difficulty.

“Our nature is to be loud, to be compelled and driven to the wall. Our nature is not to just relax.”

Yeye move, he has just consolidated his place in the U23s, with this move he should concentrate on proving himself, he shouldn't dream of super eagles from there. We have better players in his position already. I hope Ademola joins soon.

Rohr on Osimhen and Onyekuru:

"Onyekuru and Osimhen are young and they are here to learn. Musa and Ighalo are experienced so they are the ones to start. For Onyekuru, he has to first fight with Simon and Chukwueze for a position and then maybe for the central position. For Osimhen, he has to be stronger. In training, any touch he falls down. So I tell him to be strong"

Chief a quick one, going by your experience how do you think we can counter those quick wing plays from SA to cut out crosses or supplies to their 9. That is always their game plan with their pacey wingers. Do you think if we can cut their supplies we can best them squarely?

tbaba1234:


We need to get men behind the ball and choke space. They can do all the short passes in the middle as long as they are not creating anything.

We have to watch out for counters because that is their biggest strength. If we score first, they will struggle.

When i remember the way this SA team moves the ball from defense to attack in split seconds......hmm. The beautiful quick midfield interchanges they are so fond of.....hmm. Percy Tau's wizardry..... hmm. Lorch's lethality.... hmm. Mothiba's mobility.... hmm.

I sorry for Nigeria.

I disagree completely.

Tomori Fikayo is the arguably the best defender in the Championship in the 2018/19 season out of the 46 league games Fikayo played 44, that says he definitely their main man. Add to that at Hull he played 25 games in the 2017/18 season. His career total excluding cup games is near 80 games. He is most likely going to be playing at Chelsea first team this season.

Felix Udokhai is slightly older than Fikayo, has not played more than 30 games for Wolfsburg since 2017 he is not oustandiing in the league and or in his club. His career total is about 50 games. He is good,

However, Tomori is way ahead of him in every department as it stands now.

You may argue that the Bunesliga is superior to the 2nd tier of the English football league, i agree the top maybe 6/7 teams. But the lower half of the Bundesliga is not. Add to that the quality of players, it is very normal for Championship clubs to have £30 million players in their teams.

IMO it is a debate if he is actually better than Dominic Iorfa, who had a stand out season for Sheffield Wednesday after the shameless discrimination meted out at him in Wolves. However, the powers that be a the NFF have chosen to exclude him for reasons other than football.

Curtisaxel7:


Lol @ "falling down".

What about Onuachu that falls at the passing of the slightest breeze?

Odunayaw:
Rohr thinks Onyekuru should be at RW? O heavens!

SerVik:

Dear Mr. Rohr
What then becomes of a team that defeated the defending champions? I guess that makes them champions

For real, it is like this Rohr took Kai Kai.

When Real Betis beat Barcelona, they became the favourites to win the La Liga.

If Oga Rohr was coach of Brazil, Neymar and Robinho would never have gone close to the Brazilian squad.

Mbok do not turn Osimhen into a mechanic. I like my forwards light but full of pace.

Finito.

oga there is sense in what the man said. for christ sake oshimeh is just 20 and feather weight. in african footie he will be easily muscled. he is still a young chap who is still growing and will bulk up as he matures.

i bet you that oshimeh will be easily manhandled if he is deployed as a lone striker. the madagascar match was a good fixture to test him and onyekuru but things went south in the early minutes of the game and got worst in the 2nd stanza which made the coaching crew to throw in players they believed would have atleast salvaged a point.

oshimeh and onyekuru are one for the future and the but interesting thing is they are part of the team. for rohr to take both to the competition meas he rates them high

komekn:


The very thing i said about Osimhen and Sadiq Umar i am talking years ago is that they both lack physicality. i went on further to say they would not survive in the English league one and i was labelled a HATER.

Now you are all hearing it from the horses mouth Rohr, please you can now all in your emotive prejudice label Rohr a racist HATER.

We love fantasy here not facts.
