Rohr
Gernot Rohr, Super Eagles Technical Adviser, on Tuesday wielded the big axe as he dropped Goalkeeper Daniels Akpeyi, injured Moses Simon, Chidozie Awaziem, Kano Pillars Junior Lokosa and Stephen Eze.

He will take recuperating Goalkeeper Carl Ikeme to Russia as the unregistered 24th player.

25 players will leave for London on Wednesday with two player remaining to be dropped. He will name his 23-man list on June 4, two days after England friendly.

Wow.
So Akpeyi slipped through the basket.
Anyway, let's wait for the official word but this is hardly different from the owngoal report.

[okuns]

Why waste our time with calling up Akpeyi in the first place?

[Cmoke]

Team is meeting Buhari today then fly to London.

We go know who enter plane.

BTW Simon said they told him the final decision about him will not be made until Friday!

Why waste our time with calling up Akpeyi in the first place?

Because some think there's a good goalkeeper hiding in there, somewhere. Personally I think, like the Hulk, he ain't coming out anytime soon

[Cmoke]

Funny CE will not be too surprised if Akpeyi is dropped

[osita]

i though akpeyi will not be dropped

[walesvilla]

Akpeyi not dropped - the 5 dropped are Simon ,Dele, Agbo, Eze and Lokosa

[anointed]

Are you sure Akpeyi was dropped? Pls, double check and confirm. Only the link you posted appears to have that info.

It's Ajiboye plus Moses Simon, Stephen Eze, Junior Lokosa and Uche Agbo that have been dropped. Ola Aina may not make it too from what I also gathered.

If you ask me, to drop Akpeyi wil be a HUGE surprise. IMHO he has been better than many give him credit. I just do not see how Rohr will drop him.

Said yesterday on another thread that the handling of this boy’s case does not look professional. The coach seems to have agreed with the medical assessment but some people (apparently in the NFF) are insisting that he keeps having more and more medical opinions. While it’s a crying shame on the young man, the greater great or should be top priority this late in the game 1 team unity.

Man, I really feel bad for Moses Simon. He really worked hard for our qualification. Horrible timing for his injury.

[niyi]

Chidozie's dropping must have been injury related, right?

Think it's strange we are going to the world cup with only 3 CDs. I'm guessing Uche Agbo who's really useless as a CD is Rohr's 4th CD

Chidozie still in the squad

[niyi]

Chidozie still in the squad

Just saw that. Other websites report Chidozie still in and Agbo is dropped. Hmm.... why the confusion?

Why the confusion? Naija now

Because there are several leaks by guys close to the team that have one interest or the other.

[Bigpokey24]

well 2 more players will still be dropped and probably placed on standby

Colin was saying Simon was not cut yet. He is on his way to London for a scan.
