Sometimes he was deployed on the flank or cm position. Most of the matches he featured in were uel, carling and fa cups
forgiveness:


Where did he play when he made his debut for Tottenham? Did you watch the match?

He never played as a CM for Tottenham. All the games I saw him played were mostly in the AMF position

He recently started playing in the CM position. He is a natural AMF.

So Mane was looking to win Ballon d'Or after winning AFCON, in his mind, he was the last UCL winner in the race for an international trophy.

He was advocating in anticipation

Tunisia can't go down because they did well

And am not sure if Algeria will be first ,Senegal might retain their first even if they will loose this game

There is no way Morocco and Ivory Coast will be ahead of Tunisia

I wonder how Senegal is in West Africa and Cameroon isn't

I feel closer to Cameroon than Senegal

Because you are at the boundary of West Africa.

I'm from North Central Nigeria, Kwara state, southern Kwara to be precise, meaning I'm in same Geopolitical zone with someone from Plateau state - 10 hours drive from my Kwara. But Osun, which is in SW, is 20 minutes drive from my place and I share more cultural affinity with Osun.

just when we are complaining about Akpeyi ..boom!! Senegal keeper happens.
I think the reason Algeria get the upper hand against us was because we were too gentle, our attackers especially ighalo and musa were crap and of course THE JERSEY.. Lolz
BTW I expect Senegal to equalize with pne the free kicks ..what did hell were they tall for.? Sane,Kouyate,Starr,Niang and you couldn't score from set piece

West Brom have agreed fees with Rotherham for Semi Ajayi

That's good because he's probably one season away from playing in the premier league

People regard Algeria as the current best team in Africa despite Senegal being no 1

Morrocco can't go from second to 7th, I don't think Fifa makes such drastic changes, Even when Brazil lost 7-1 they didn't go down much in the rankings

Tunisia didn't have a single good game in the Afcon

Rohr should not throw away Balogun because of one mistake after he has done well for the team in the past 3 years. He should extend invitation to him if he gets to play regularly for his club.

Kelechi Nwakali should get game time before he is invited to the national team. This is Nigeria's national team.


Rohr to overhaul Eagles as players reach end of international careers

By Gowon Akpodonor,

19 July 2019 | 3:52 am

Super Eagles’ Coach, Gernot Rohr will embark on a complete overhaul of his team if he retained his position as Nigeria’s manager.

The Franco/German is set to sit down with his employers, the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), to evaluate his stewardship and decide on the way forward.

The NFF President, Amaju Pinnick recently said the federation would not sack the former Bordeaux coach adding, however, that the federation would help him to become more efficient.

With the retirement of Skipper John Obi Mikel, who is likely to be followed by the first-choice striker, Odion Ighalo, Rohr is looking to fill some of the positions that would be affected by the new development, as well as plugging the holes he noticed in the team at the African Nations Cup.

Apart from the retiring players, among those that they may no longer feature in Rohr’s team are Leon Balogun, Daniel Akpeyi, John Ogu, and Ikechukwu Ezenwa.

According to a source close to the coach, Rohr was disappointed by the performance of some of his trusted players, particularly Leon Balogun and Daniel Akpeyi and as such wants to have capable replacements before the World Cup qualifiers begin.

“Balogun and Ogu are senior citizens in the team, but they disappointed when they were given the opportunity to play against Madagascar.

“Balogun’s game has been going down since he relocated to England and at 30, the coach believes it is time to look at younger players.

“He is still certain for a good partner for Troost-Ekong as Kenneth Omeruo has proved to be unreliable, but the Chelsea star will still maintain his squad place pending when there is a better alternative.

“Ogu has not actually featured prominently in Rohr’s team, so the coach thinks it is time to let him go. He believes that given the opportunity, youngsters like Kelechi Nwakali, Osimhen and Dele Alampasu can plug the holes in the team.”


The source said the coach is desperately in search of good goalkeepers from within and outside Nigeria, adding that Rohr has encouraged the NFF to look at how to get Arsenal young goalkeeper, Arthur Okonkwo to pledge allegiance to the Super Eagles.

Anyone who wants Balogun gone is not serious at all. Because of one bad game?? Leon is still important to us. He is 32 (real age - not football age) - so fucking what?
