Instead of arguing over spilled milk
Let's us just drop our preferred line ups Here and have full insight on the next match.

smartsmith0907:



okay gimme your line up.

TheGoodJoe:
Just to make a little contribution.

I liked what I saw in the first half when it came to keeping the ball and creating chances.

The Sierra Leone players gave us the respect and we made them pay for it.

What intrigued me most was how we pressed with numbers in the first half. There was literally no room for the Sierra Leone players to build passes.

Unfortunately, I was too busy to watch most of the game, especially the second half but when I tuned in, for what I still don't get is how we switched from pressing with intensity to sitting back.

We might have still attacked but we switched off from our pressing game and the result was catastrophic.

charlesemeka85:
he should be sacked abeg

IDENNAA:


Omeruo was in form, and Ebuehi was just joined. Are you telling me that Akpoguma can play that wing more than a tested Awaziem ? Be serious. Don't forget he love his German boys

12large1:
That akpoguma na straight up Trash. Next time no one will deem anyone a sure banker before playing for us. He is only starting because his a German/Nigerian. The guy is so stiff and he isn't even better than Shehu at Rb let alone, Awaziem, aina or Ebuehi. Basically, rohr is using the worst Rb possibly and starting him. He might be A Better CB tho but I doubt it. As for musa, he should just retire or be used as a CF. Anything contrary and he is absolutely atrocious

1realBobby:
wait ooo... so none of you guys believe in Iheanacho anymore you see the double standards? most guys here calls rogers racist for benching nacho, and yet don't think he's good enough to be a back up to Osimhen.. How laughable!

TheGoodJoe:
I think Rohr needs to work on our team relying more on pressing to defend than sitting back to secure leads. We are naturally not built for a conservative stance.

Our players are better on the front foot.

Rohr's selections should tilt towards a conditioned pressing unit, when you compromise with our true identity, we Suffer.

Stamina is key to win this kind of game. Keeping fatigued players is a recipe for Disaster.

Finally, Rohr needs to attend to the midfield balance. We lost shape repeatedly due to no defined roles during transition of play. The team needs to work on passing channels and maintaining compact shape in the middle because the World is growing fast with respect to this.

They were positives but lots of lessons to learn.

Unfortunately, the team is far from ready.

elunico:


Osimhen, Iwobi, without these two, our pressing is nonsense.

We can't effectively adopt this system if we don't have more of such players.

TheGoodJoe:
Maduka Okoye, enough said for the Goalkeeping poster child.

JayromWrites:


Because He is performing in the here and now


Top of the group in The Qualifiers

Rohr dey Bleep up, but make we no compare am with Sia1 and Oliseh

1realBobby:


Make una stop this nonsense... If Rohr had started Akpeyi or osigwe yesterday, they wouldn't have done better... or maybe they would've... it's uncertain.

But one thing is sure.. If rohr started someone else in his stead yesterday, and the person ended up conceding 4 goals, you would be the first to lambast rohr for not sticking with okoye. Humans are truly insatiable

In fact self, tell me which of those goals came as a result of a direct error from Okoye? His hands were tied on all occasions. there was barely nothing he could do

elunico:
Rohr is here to stay.


For those who are just coming to the party, it's too late. Now is the time to give Rohr your undivided support.

MetalJigsaw:
The coach is responsible for steering his team the way they should play.

He is responsible for reading the game and detect any weak link or lapses.


If a player isn't playing well he has the right to take him off at the right time . And Rohr has failed in this countless times

charlesemeka85:
i watch the highlight of the game last nyt via youtube and to be honest non of the goals was his fault

jihday:
That guy has never liked Maduka so I understand where his post is coming from

elunico:
I've said it before and I'm saying it again, Akpeyi is our best goalkeeper.

His distribution is better than anyone in that team.

mostob:
No No No... say something more about him. How much do you rate him?

TheGoodJoe:


Worst is that Iwobi later gasses and we turn to blank.

Actually, we pressed with numbers earlier and later stopped, increase the need for individual pressing ability and a scattered shape.

This falls on Rohr accepting the system, selecting players who can suit the system and training the team to play it.

Well, they were good signs.

TheGoodJoe:


Maduka Okoye looks totally inexperienced to me and does not look a talented stopper. However, I like his foot works which shows he is trained for the modern game.

It also shows he might be astute tactically but he needs to show it by being vocally commanding at the back.

He needs to drop his age factor and take the responsibility at the back to maintain the defensive shape by calling out gaps.

Either way not convinced with his judgment when under pressure and would get a poor rating for me, especially with the header goal and I think the first goal.

mostob:
This is not about hate. Maduka was practically forced down our throat.
