[Bigpokey24]

[Gotti]

Given all of the changes, the team is frankly doing better than I had expected...

GO Super Eagles!!

[furiously frank]

GO Super Eagles!!

Agreed. Majority of this team may not have played together ever. Unlike Friday's team who have been together for more than 4 years.

Since they gave us two goals, make you kuku award them a 3-0 victory nah.

Meanwhile you are very quick to merrily award Algeria a 3-0 victory over Nigeria in our last WC quali game in Algiers.
You try.

[aruako1]

I have given Rohr a few knocks but I have been impressed recently.

[Damunk]

As soon as I saw that Cape Verde OG, I just knew the miserable bunch of whiners would use it as a point against our team.

[delisyomie don]

[tedder89]

Well said....plus some such as Chidera and Kingsley worth an addition to the bigger squad

Kingsley was part of Chuks and Vics u17 set.. dude was very impressive... also Ejuke is a must for the SE ...Bonke should stay with our standby players

I was not happy after the Benin game but we were the better team today by far. With so many mixing players against a team that is decent at home. I would have take a draw. It's ok not to like Rohr (I'm not a big fan) but he got it right today.

Damunk, I wanted to open a thread to ask you and TXj, two guys I consider big **** fans.

What improvement have you seen if any in the team play?

Can you tell us what is his team's tactics if any?

How about his strategy?

Can you tell us the formation he uses?

Do you think he is capable of getting the most out of the personnel he has available to him?

Finally, HAS THE SQUAD IMPROVED?

I am first and foremost A SUPER EAGLES FAN, and that can never change. I am NOT an analyst and don’t pretend to be.
I SUPPORT THE SE COACH, whoever he might be, AS LONG AS HE IS GETTING RESULTS.
I supported Oliseh, Keshi, and even Siasia WITHOUT pretending to be a tactical analyst.
I supported AMODU and was not part of the public condemnation of his “boring” football that was one of several excuses used for his unceremonious sacking.

Come to think of it, what was Keshi’s “strategy” since he is proclaimed to be the Nigerian GOAT?
Or Oliseh’s?

If you are asking whether Rohr is capable of getting “the best” out of his players, the answer is yes - until someone comes and proves otherwise.
It’s a trick question because everyone knows ROHR IS THE BEST WE CAN AFFORD and if you have better, affordable options, you guys are really good at keeping it a high level secret.

Go bring Pochettino and he might do better. Or Conte. Or Zidane. Or they might not. You won’t know until you try.
So your question get as e be.
‘Formation’? Does formation not change depending on the opposition and game plan?
What is Guardiola’s ‘formation’?

Has the squad improved?
Over what exactly?
Over what it was in 2019?
Definitely.

I’d say it’s now a better squad than even the 2013 AFCON-winning squad.
African football is not sleeping and teams are not advancing at the same rate. Quality of tournaments is not static either.

TxJ might be better in answering your technical query, at least he does his homework.
But don’t be fooled that the majority of the tactical debate here on CE is of any quality when it comes to strategy and game management.
Everyone has an opinion but only a few seem to know what they are talking about.
Lest we all forget, they abused Keshi’s ‘tactics’. They abused Siasia’s ‘tactics’. They abused Amodu’s ‘tactics’.
Rohr is no different.

He just happens to be “the worst SE coach ever” - until the next one comes along.

[vancity eagle]

Haters can hate but Rohr keeps racking up away victories, something no SE coach ever did with such ease.

This time he did it missing 11 key players.

With a midfield that got their first caps today.

You seriously cannot begrudge this achievement.

Slowly but surely we are moving in the right direction. Hopefully he has learned his lessons.

4 straight competitive victories since Sierra Leone debacle.

Ended Benins home unbeaten run

4 straight competitive shut outs, ended today.

The biggest impediment to our play frankly has been the poor pitches.

[highbury]

In as much that I agree that Rohr isn't the best available coach out there, firing him now will be unwise. I think it is prudent to make that decision after World Cup( if we qualify) or after the 3rd round of WC qualifier( if we don't qualify).

Bigpokey you need to chill sometimes.
If it was the SE that scored the own goal, you'd blame Rohr. The opponent scored an own goal and you are still not happy. This is how wizards behave o. You don't need to start flying at night to become one.

We will praise him when he does well...like yesterday. And knock him when his team plays poorly. But we never support the country Nigeria is playing against (like you did with Ivory Coast). People like you and BigPokey are two sides of the same coin. You never see anything good in those that you don't like.

If Rohr's team plays poorly again, I'll express my displeasure - it is my right as a fan.

[gochino]

we nigerian sometime we never happy ,the guy still getting results and qualifying for tournament remember 2015 and 2017 nation cup.???

So are coaches hired just to qualify teams for tournaments?? See complex!
