Re: Nigeria will not win the Nations Cup
Don't know because I haven't watched every team. I have watched my team and a few other teams. Based on this body of evidence, I am confident we will not win. Of course if positive changes are made, that certainly improves our chances.Damunk wrote:If you are that insightful, why not disclose who WILL win it?highbury wrote:It is easy to say I am wrong.

Nothing easier than saying we "will not win it", because you have a 23/24 chance of being correct.
So you're not really saying anything worth acknowledging.

1) Poor Coach. Slow to make changes. We have no Nigerian flair. Gone!!
2) Why he didn't remove Iwobi after the garbage of a game astonished me.
3) Trust me, this Coach is not it. I will support him but I know he ain't the one. You can't tell me that Siasia can't do better.
4) At best Nigeria will make Qfinals

Re: Nigeria will not win the Nations Cup
I personally like our chances. Whenever we go we are competitive.

Re: Nigeria will not win the Nations Cup
It is easy to say that Nigeria will not win it. We have failed to win the vast majority of Nations Cups that we have attended. If you can tell me who will win it I'll take you seriously.

Re: Nigeria will not win the Nations Cup
More likely than not Rohr will win the Nations cup, because he has a good record against African countries (as coach of Nigeria). Non-African opposition is a different story.

Re: Nigeria will not win the Nations Cup
Even though some of Rohrs antics piss me off, we are well on way to being one of the favorites to win it, I very much like our chances.
Today's match was purposely played at high altitude at the hottest moment in the day, we were missing Ndidi, Mikel, Ighalo, and we still would have won if not for piss poor officiating by the linesmen.
Rohr has an excellent record in Africa, but our DEFENCE is starting to worry me. Giving up 3 goals in the last 2 games against mediocre opposition is a little worrying. I think Ajayi needs to be tried at the back. Omeruo seems to always make stupid mistakes every game he plays.
Rohr needs to sort out what our best attacking formation and players set are. I know for sure that it does not involve Iheanacho, and frankly I don't think he even deserves to make the 23 if it were based on merit. Especially with the likes of Ojo and Lookman soon to be in the mix. Unless he improves his game he is on the outs for me. No room for him to be frank.

Re: Nigeria will not win the Nations Cup

Re: Nigeria will not win the Nations Cup
Extremely hot weather and played on a high altitude. Do you know how difficult that is. So rather than get all your players attacking and draining themselves, play a more conscious game, get atleast a point.

Re: Nigeria will not win the Nations Cup
You seem to be mistaking the AFCON for the World Cup. Which team in Africa is according to you is "that good". From what I have seen over the whole qualifiers we are DEFINITELY one of the favourites even if it was played today. When we won in 2013, we were crap in our first 2 games. We will never play well in every match but for bad officiating we should have won this match in which we were CLEARLY in second gear. Ezenwa was on holiday in this game. I really don't understand this your honesty as this honesty does not relate to reality.highbury wrote:I hope I am wrong, but I am quite confident. Our team isn't that good.

Currently Nigeria is the best team in Africa.
Even going back to the worldcup I didn't see any African team I thought to be better.
It will be tough though.
Cameroon, Morocco, Senegal, will be tough.
Also look out for a resurgent CIV, and Ghana will be in with a say as well.
Egypt and Tunisia will be decent. Maybe Algeria can get their act back together.
But honestly I like Nigeria right now. Iwobi will be key and when we find out our starting trio we will be deadly.
Rohr needs to get rid of his sentiments.
