Re: where are those forcing junks on the SE

I was never really sold on Adarabioyo. His biggest asset is his age frankly. Lookman will be a great addition to SE. So Aina is suddenly junk ? Aina is a decent defender and versatile at the back. Definitely needed in SE ,especially given our clearly limited abilities at the back. Lookman does not ...

Re: #RorhOut

Wait, I’m confused. Senegal on paper is the number 1 ranked team and literally has the best squad on paper among all African teams. So, if Senegal is the number 1 ranked team on paper and has the best squad among all African teams then where is this arrogance coming from? Let’s be clear, Nigeria sh...

Re: wAyo Akinfe, come in here.

Igalo was still our best target man going into the World Cup. He could have silenced all his critics last night had he scored that chance. Anyway going forward, we need younger and top class players who can hit world class. Let us see what becomes of Simeon Nwankwo. A front three of Nwankwo, Onyeku...

Re: IGHALO must be dropped

Ighalo is the easy blame. But I did not see him missing many chances. We just simply did not create enough attacking plays. The approach to today’s game was off. Its not just today o that we just don't create chances - its the reason why he hasn't scored much for the SE. This has been an issue for ...

Re: Super Eagles Line Up For Croatia Tie, Etebo In, Onazi Be

Common as much as I am a Shehu fan, at this stage I believe Tyron offers us much offensively. Nevertheless all the best, the coach knows best. If its a 352, i am sure Rohr would use Ebuehi. IN a 4 man back line with the pacy Croatian wingers, Rohr would want to use Shehu's grit and physicality to c...

When I told my people that qualifying for the World Cup and participating in it are two totally different things, some of you laughed. You can now see that it was the right thing to bring in the likes of Uzoho and Ebuehi. Now, all Rohr needs to do is play Joel obi at left back and use Alex Iwobi as...

Re: Iwobi asks Rohr to use him as the Eagles playmaker

Why do you keep stubbornly putting Joel Obi are RB/RWB? What gives you the impression he's any good there? You keep repeating it over and over assuming that'll make it more acceptable. Joel Obi is the best leftback in the squad. Take it or leave it! If you were told that John Ogu could play centreb...
