One has to commend the NFF mehn...

the game against DR Congo should be prosecuted entirely with fringe players who are on the cusp, we do not want to wear our players out.

England should be our strongest team.

depending on who the final opponent is the stronger side should also face our main team while the weaker opponent should have heavy rotation.

There should be no less than 30 players in camp when we play DR Congo.

6 friendlies before World Cup for a team that heavily relies on Mikel, Moses and ndidi is quite risky. In fact, we’re asking for burnout/injuries. 4 friends should had been enough
2 in march
1 in may
1 in June
By now, most of our 23 are already complete so I’m confused why 6 friendlies are needed. I hope this agents hasn’t compromised rohr integrity causing him to schedule more friendlies to try out newer players

right now we have 5 guaranteed friendlies and supposedly working on getting a sixth.

There is nothing wrong with 6 friendlies as long as they are used strategically.

Before last WC we played 3 friendlies, this WC we aim to play 4.

Our depth chart is far greater in 2018 than it was in 2014, so frankly we have many more players to test, and competition will be much greater, unlike the joke that took place under Keshi.

Nothing wrong with 4 friendlies before the WC, as long as we play fringe players against DR Congo and do not burn out our main team in all matches. I am sure Rohr will be giving all the players chance to play and will make plenty of substitutions.

You want the team to lose another friendly against Uganda in 9ja?
That's not good for morale heading into the World Cup.

Ug is good for practise sessions

There’s no need scheduling 6 friendlies prior to World Cup or 2 in the same month as World Cup especially as we’re heavily reluctant on few players. I believe that if rohr was still searching for multiple new players presently then it’s advisable to play 6 games. But from the look of things, rohr already has his main guys for World Cup so I don’t know who you guys intend on prosecuting those 6 games. We should understand that our players are coming from a long season so playing 2 games in may and 2 in June prior to World Cup is risky in my opinion. Anyway, this is just my opinion sha

Friendlies are also for trying out new strategies and not just new players. These strategies are best tested when closer to competition and with the most probable squad.

Chief! Des days, you jus dey make me laf

Thus in reality, you believe Uganda will be Nigeria - eh? I understand anything can happen in matches, but at moment, there are very few teams in Africa that can beat the Super-eagles. However, I don't believe Uganda is one of such teams

... and I second your opinion. I think six matches is too much especially because coach Rohr already have a clue of his men. Granted tactics will be tried and et al., but are we planning to show our "tricks" to our competitors? Well; the NFF, coach Rohr and his crew knows better

We need the friendlies. Injuries can happen even before the friendlies.

This was a tough friendly against Yugoslavia days before the 1998 world Cup. And Baruwa was found out.

[/video]

most other countries are playing 2 friendlies in March

most countries will play at least 3 more friendlies before the WC

I don't see the fuss. And no we do not know our players.

Just last match we discovered Ebuehi and Idowu who have both only played HALF A MATCH for SE. Both options look better than Echiejele. Aina also has only played 1.5 matches for us.

Uzoho has played half a match for us.

Yes we need more games, do not be mistaken.

We have yet to test

Joel Obi
Bazee
Success
Bonaventure
Oshimen
Okonkwo

We have plenty to do if we want to be at our optimal best.

Baruwa oo -The stage fright was too much to handle – this is why we need those friendly to find more about all our keepers on world stage- so far Akpeyi is a big suspect at the world stage.

VE, by this time the coach already knows most of his first 11. I hope you’re not insinuating that shehu should be dropped for ebuehi on the basics of a “2nd half performance”? Not good. I believe that the coach already knows most of his 23 members at this point and playing 2 games in may and June will be risky to our players. It will be risky injury-wise and our opponents will be privy to tactics, players etc. Nigerians needs to stop this mentality of “1 bad or good” game deciding if players should be dropped or selected because that’s not how football works

Van city there’s no more time for tryouts . This isn’t scremage or open tryout, The coach should focus on the players available and work on tactics, cohesiveness, familiarity, teamwork and bonding. Most of the players that qualified us for World Cup should be used at the World Cup. After World Cup, all those guys you listed can be integrated in the team

Why launch our kit in London and not Abuja?
Is Nike launching kits for more than one country or just Nigeria on this date?

Absolutely shambolic defending and goalkeeping in this match. The goalkeeper (Abiodun Baruwa) should be shot for that 2nd goal!

Should be shot for a football match? Na wa for people here o what kind of evil thought is that
