There's nothing to assess in Alampasu, this isn't the first time he's getting an invite under Rohr he even played against Togo. Whether he uses those guys or not it doesn't change the fact that they won't be invited for next month games as he already has his top 3 even 4 keepers (Akpeyi, Maduka, Uzoho, Ezenwa)

I thought we were all in support of the phasing out of Akpeyi and Ezenwa??
What do they have left to offer again?

I know Alampasu had been tried before,but that was around the time he wasn't playing regularly at his club..I think he deserves another chance now.. Same with Yakubu..

See,this friendly might be our last chance in a while to try out new players..after this,we are back to the qualifiers...
Unless we won't mind seeing the trio of Akpeyi, Uzoho and Ezenwa at another major tournament as our goalkeepers,it's time we give chances to others...

jihday:
But if they tell you to backup your claim that Aina was our best defender at the last Afcon you go dey dodge, see as you rush drop screenshots here

Like somebody said, "if forgiveness hasn't found it on the internet yet,then it isn't on the internet"

Curtisaxel7:
Any lineup yet? Or is it still too early?

it too early even the caoch and the backroom staff still no know who go start or not. players dey give them selection headache.

I agree with you but but knowing Rohr it will be gradual especially for Akpeyi, he still kept goal in our last competitive game

the formation is 4-1-4-1 rohr is exploring

okoye
sanusi. omerou. balogun. apko
ajayi
Moses. iwobi. chuks
nacho
musa just like I predicted musa and nacho to lead

smartsmith0907:

A 4-1-4-1 without Ndidi?

so in the second ejuke will be coming for Moses and desser for musa aina for apkoguma 99.9% sure

jihday:
Frank Onyeka is better than ozil?

This is not ozil's case

Subzero047:

make we dey watch the formation go sweet rohr wan win at all cost

That's also true..

I just want us to get this goalkeeper issue sorted out as soon as we can..

benji93:
A team that has a history of having goalkeeper problems. You are trying to slip in a fact you are not sure of. Not because there were no other goalkeepers. What does that even mean? Nigeria has always problems in the Goalkeeping. We have never been spoilt for options in the goal keeping department. Mention any other goalkeeper that was as good as those three while they donned the GWG. You better have a support for whatever fact you put out. Maduka was invited while he competing in Regionalliga west, the 4th-tier of the German league. If he can be invited, others deserve to be featured when called up. This is not a tournament. These are friendly matches were you get to test players.

The only time I remember us having problems with our goalkeeping department was '98, Sunday Rotimi and Greg Etafia were good enough to at least replace Aiyenugba as 3rd choice both of them were never given any chance to prove themselves

JohnBullMySon:
let me assure you. Noatter what you say, you won't change the fact that okoye will be at the post, alampasu won't, okoye will be in the squad in November, with Akpeyi back and uzoho, alampasu will still go.

We want to see other goalkeepers to ascertain if they are better. All these grammar don't add up.

Starboytwo:
What time is the match my good people

7:30 pm

if the tactics work out expect a very high pressing game and attacking game.

Danielnino00:

I think it has been sorted. Uzoho Akpeyi and Maduka, we'll have a clearer picture next month

smartsmith0907:


lemme give you an indepth analysis of these players

1. Uzoho ( APOEL) plays in Cyprus which is rated 16 by UEFA league rating:- uzoho came to the limelight in 2017 after becoming the youngest foreign Goalkeeper in LA liga and he consistent over the years from his move from deportivo to Elche to anorthosis and now APOEL he has been playing continuously have never heard Uzoho been out for months without playing unless he is injured

2. Okoye (Sparta Rotterdam) plays in Netherlands which is rated 10 according to UEFA league ranking ...okoye is the most undermined player here and damn underrated who ever says Okoye was invited coz he was commenting of NFF post that person is a nonentity and he is BALNTANT liars coz Okoye earned his invitation and was merited
lemme give his synopsis He started in Bayern Leverkusen and moved to Fortuna in 2017 he came to the limelight whe he SINGLE HANDEDLY save his team from relegation( oberliga ) making 5 appearances with 4 clean sheet and conceding just a goal who ever follow regionaliga will tell you how difficult it is to concede a goal in 4 matches vonsidering the scoring spree in the league this was when rohr discovered him In the 2018/2019 season, he became the club regular goalkeeper. He finished the season with 15 appearances, conceding 25 goals and keeping 3 clean sheets. this stat is very impressive considering his age and exposure at that time now he is in Sparta Rotterdam pushing for a No.1 spot

3. okiki LASK playing in Austria Ranked 12 according to UEFA league ranking :- I have a kinda close link with him coz have been following him since age 8 during his days in Asko donau linz
he came to the limelight in 2017 when he broke into LASK junior he went on 46 game spree and went to wels having 8games on his belt now he is in LASK first team playing a UEFA Competition and he will soon be their first choice considering his performance in his last match

now compare these players with alampasu who has played a total sum of 6 games since December 30 2015 till date international match included
https://www.footballcritic.com/dele-alampasu/profile/65554
and played for ventspils which is currently 36 according to UEFA league ranking so my broda the trio has been consistent over the years and are playing right now in a better league than alampasu I understand you're a fan but his time will surely come

Has he played yes or no? When Alampasu was playing for his reserve team the goalpost changed. This is the same guy that no SE could even smell a goal against before a big match and he still didn't get a chance.

Now u are bringing up matches that equate to Xmas village competition to say okoye deserves an undisputed number one shirt.

You are also wrong dele was playing for his B team in Portugal and made at least 20 appearances. He is in Latvia to get playing time. This is the same Latvia that a player went straight to a big league from so that rating is nonsense.

okoye played all the preseason game even played against Dortmund so what are we talking about
basco show where alampasu made 20 apperances alampasu only made 6 appearances in 5 years do he even merit a call up

Ajayi didn't do well and in a double pivot and they are asking him to protect the defence on his own

smartsmith0907:


oga forgiveness ya a clown stat doesn't lie
I said he played 6 games in 5 years I stated counting december 27 huh ??
for ventspil this year he started two europa qualifiers and conceded 6 goals that says alot
he played recently in the Latvia cup and got a clean sheet
back to his days in feirense he played allainz cup he was in goal for 2 games and conceded two goals
he also played in liga NOS for feirense with a clean sheet according to transfer market. apart from these games tell me other games alampasu has started in the last five years

You are the clown here. Just admit you lied and move on.

What a joke. You started counting from December. December of which year?

How many games have you counted? Is it not more than 5 games?

That's enough to debunk your lie.

smartsmith0907:


make we dey watch the formation go sweet
rohr wan win at all cost

Ajayi is not good as a midfielder, if Tunisians play a 4-3-3 we are fried

jihday:

The way he saw Ezenwa and kept him in the team for years, right!?

Imagine having all these problems because we did not invite Azeez

Subzero047:

we are not defending today we are playing ultra attack make match start before we criticize abegiii

yeah

smartsmith0907:

Before you play ultra attack make sure your defense is ok

If Sanusi ventures forward it may 3 against 3

why you dey reason like this

smartsmith0907:


If uzoho and okoye is not around like youve said which might not be possible then okiki will step in for them and we might not really miss them coz we will be in okiki's safe hands

Seriously? Okiki?
