Re: SE and Foreign Born Players

My question is why does this matter? I think the best players should play irrespective of their country of birth.

Re: Don't Compasre Uzoho & Maduka to Me -- Enyeama

Both are early in their development for goalkeepers they will get better and push each other with more games. Plus it's not like we have obviously better right now.

This is reactionary . I get it but it is this mindset that makes us make knee jerk reactions.

Re: Even Cameroon with a new coach just qualified

To be honest , the reaction of the fans in the stadium is more dissappointing than the failure to qualify. " Nigerian fans acted with anger and unrestrained frustration as violence overshadowed the Super Eagles’ World Cup exit. Local spectators peppered both the Ghana fans, some 100 or so, and ...

Re: Uzoho, Balogun, and Aina!

We might be underestimating the impact of the drastic climate change on some players. Plus Abuja was hot.

Re: WHO IS STILL DISSING OKOYE

Bottom line no one person in infallable.Plus the GK position is such an unforgiving position - When you are on , you are a hero. One mistake is fatal.

We have two young goalies , they will make mistakes and they will both get better.

Re: Rohr's opinion on the Super Eagles' loss to Tunisia

He legitimately does not have faith in the quality of African players or his coaching ability to make the team push above its weight.

He sounds more like a club coach than national team coach. Team spirit, uniting vision and sense of belief can inspire a severely limited team to do more.

That was such a poor goal to concede. That red looked worse on replays. It was just not our day at the office.

Re: AFCON - Parity or Big Teams Slacking

At the end of the day it is still 11 vs 11. Anything can happen on the day. I think it is good and it makes for a more competitive tornament.

Re: If Rohr was fired today

This strictly for fun and perhaps a radical thouhg - but I feel Obi Mikel could make a good coach,he would garner resepect of the current squad. Perhaps a more realistic shout would be Yobo or Amuneke. Frankly I feel like we have slim pickings

Re: Liberia 0 vs Nigeria 1Live

Job done on to the next one. Not a vintage or memorable performance but we never looked in trouble, our lack of cohesion in the final 3rd was worrisome.

3 points was what the doctor ordered and the team delivered on that
