[1] Nothing else makes sense at this point in time
[2] We are short of about five starters and have a weak bench
[3] Here we have a competitive match that is a dead rubber and will not get a better chance to blood new faces
[4] I also like the fact that the game is away, meaning the players will be thrown in at the deep end, playing in a hostile atmosphere
[5] With the amount of new talent coming through, this is the time to try them out
[6] Anyone who plays will also have participated in the qualifiers, which should keep some people here quiet
[7] I would have Iheanacho in there to captain the team. he had not played for the Eagles much lately and I would like to see his form
[8] These boys will know they are playing for their place in Russia, so I expect them to go out full blast and win this game
[9] Hopefully, after this match, Rohr will have a huge selection headache
[10] If you ask me, I expect about four or five of these boys to make the starting line-up come our World Cup opening game

Re: Common sense says the Algeria game should be all new fac
Fortunately, your defination of 'common sense' is not espoused to by the majority of football minded folk, including Rohr.
That said, it will be incredibly stupid of anyone to go with all new faces against the Algerians for any number of reasons.

Are you going to be opening the same thread every time a new Nigerian is "discovered?" You know you can just update your old thread with "Uzoho?" Right?
Happy Sunday.

Re: Common sense says the Algeria game should be all new fac
Common sense according to Ayo. Don't second guess the manager. The bed thing is to put out a normal team with few changes in areas we need cover and see how they cope with some of the regulars. An understudy to Mikel needs to be tried, God forbid our Mikel gets injured

I am not bothered by the banter on this site. I am certain Rohr will be thinking like me.

Think like you of the Friday Onyeku and 3-5-2 fame? God forbid bad thing!!
Look, you really need to stop flattering yourself. After more than a decade on this site, you still have failed to realize you know nothing about football management.

Re: Common sense says the Algeria game should be all new fac
Ayo Akinfe na real piece of work...we go through this song and dance every time with him after Nigeria qualifies for the WC. Never fails.
Its like, he waits until we qualify and then starts posting all manner of things that are simply ridiculous.
I guess he really feels the need to be relevant now, after being MIA since the 2014 WC in Brazil
Anyway, it makes for interesting thread debates and discussions during the WC period.

Re: Common sense says the Algeria game should be all new fac
To a certain point, I agree with Ayo, though. Why do we want to use many of our regulars in playing a game which has little value to us? By the time the game is played, the FIFA (LAST) ranking to be used for the world cup is already out; therefore, a loss will not hurt us too much.Ayo Akinfe wrote:I am not bothered by the banter on this site.

Whatever Rohr does will be the right thing to to do because he knows best. Until then we'll enjoy reading Ayo's wishlist for entertainment purposes.Odas wrote:To a certain point, I agree with Ayo, though.

Re: Common sense says the Algeria game should be all new fac
Why would it make sense to throw fresh faces in the deep end? That's not the way to develop or encourage anybody. Dead rubber or not, we need this game to ensure our Fifa ranking is at the highest it can be before the draw for group stages on Dec 1st. Thankfully Rohr listed this as the next target. We need to play to win that game.

Fifa will rank teams based on the October table. The result of they match will not affect the rankings.felarey wrote:Why would it make sense to throw fresh faces in the deep end?

I put it to you that this fresh team is capable of doing better than the one that beat Zambia 1-0. Some of you cannot just get it into your skulls that our team is simply not good enough!
It is either you are being carried away by the results or you have set the bar so low, you do not care if we lose three games in Russia. Our current team is way too limited to participate in the World Cup.
Re: Common sense says the Algeria game should be all new fac
I agree play Uzoho and Alampasu against Algeria. Lets see what we have in the friendly. Hopefully we also play Morocco.
Uzoho
Shehu, Awaziem, Eze, Aina
Agu, Etebo, Ogu
Bassey, Iheanacho, Onyekuru
Beating Algeria won't affect our rankings significantly. Algeria is ranked lower than Nigeria. The ranking system is obviously rigged to favor UEFA teams. The UEFA teams also play more games than CAF.

I meant Bazee. Friendlies are mean't to test new players. The first 11 is almost set, maybe one or two new faces.
