I think we can assume Ajayi is Ndidi's under-study. So if Ndidi is not fit, he'll be our DM.

Who plays alongside him and Iwobi is anyone's guess. Aribo seems to be in pole position but I wouldn't discount Etebo.

As for the 2 CD's, I dunno - my sense is it will Ekong + any of the others but Balogun has done himself major favours and will playing time at Rangers he might just have reclaimed that spot. It looks like the full backs will be Sanusi and Ebuehi.

And I get the sense Chukwueze will continue to get the nod alongside the industrious Simon.

Then Osimhen.

Okoye also seems to be in pole, unless Uzoho challenges him.

By and large, the team is set.

Can't wait till he is gone and a coach with an exciting approach to football is hired. Nothing the likes of Ekong, Collins, Ebuehi, Ajayi, Aina, Simon, Onuachu etc will do next month that you can't already predict or already seem. When you pay a coach the kind of money Rohr is paid, he is supposed to unearth and assemble a group of world beaters not these set of div 3 quality players being paraded. He seems to just be throwing darts on the wall to see if it sticks, not sure he knows what a baller is if it hits him on the forehead.

This is so funny.
I guess it's a case of once you have the money and can pay top dollar, that coach will turn you into world beaters, right?
So what happened to Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, China, USA that have all the resources in the world to pay "that kind of money" and much more?
Its bad enough trying to convince many Nigerians that some FB Nigerians are worthy of consideration for the SE and you truly believe money is the issue?

Did you know Keshi was in 2012 being paid roughly the same as Rohr is today, allowing for inflation?
And rightly so!

Your Keshi struggled against virtually every minnow he faced, including

Kenya, Namibia, Malawi, Ethiopia, Sudan, Congo, and YES TAHITI.

Not once did Keshia team play minnows as well as the Lesotho match. NOT ONCE.

How about how he played in an ANC semi-final? How about how he played in a final, how did **** fair in his ANC final....oh wait Hope you are not more focused on beating minnows than competing with the best of the best...

You can't play against the best when you fail to qualify for a competition by failing AGAINST MINNOWS.

What happened to Keshi's defense of the Afcon trophy ?

Keshi team played in 2 AFCON competitions. They won one and failed to even qualify for the other.

Let us see what Rohr does in 2 tournaments so we can properly compare. He's already en route to qualifying for a second tournament, so he will have already passed Keshi in that regard.

He CAN'T PASS KESHI, don't you get it? He's already had the chance to and failed...now you are bringing in after the facts stuff to dilute the comparison. Belsabaini's current work with Algeria is similar to Keshi's and is clearly better than what Rohr is doing. Hopefully **** wins something at some point but he can't go back in time to do what Keshi did winning the ANC on his first try and getting to the WC 2nd round.....

Okay we get it.
Keshi is and forever will be the GOAT Naija coach for winning the AFCON at first attempt.
You can't better that.
Can we move on now?
We have a tournament to qualify for.

Really! Dr Inflation! Keshi and Rohr were paid in Dollars, not Naira!

Keshi himself revealed that he will be paid five million Naira (less than $25,000), which was what he also received during his initial contract.

“Truth is, we have a foreign coach now and from what I heard and know, he is being paid four times the wages Stephen Keshi and I were paid, and these are two players (himself and Keshi) who won trophies for Nigeria,” Oliseh told The Punch.

“We recently renewed the contract of Rohr and in the new contract is an addition of $10,000 to his monthly salary. His new salary is $55,000 (about N2 million),” Pinnick said.

BABANLA FAKE NEWS AND YOU ARE WILFULLY POSTING IT AS 'EVIDENCE'.

So you think Adelakun and co are doing their service for free?

You wey no get soccer qualification, how much you sef go take as your own salary for 'software' coach?
And did Keshi tell you he was paying anybody from his salary?
I'm genuinely curious.

I get FA football qualification and I don coach church team for London league for about 2-4 years! Those days were rough, finance and administration wise. Those boys (now) men were the best all round, after politics and mago-mago* enter, I took a back seat and faced other things!

I’d assume if both Etebo and Aribo are available they’d both play behind Iwobi.

Nigerian injury list : Nididi, Etebo, Aribo, Sam Kalu, Sansui none of them will be available to face Sierra Lone.

It will be interesting to see how SE will perform in the away match without these players

Why are people putting a 40 year old Uzoho in goal? Okoye is our number 1 going forward.

Glad to know he's back!

Sanusi played 90 mins too and got an assist.

2nd highest rating on his team as they played Sporting Lisbon.

I think we have our legitimate LB.

Rhor better call Lookman and Adarabioyo up this November. No excuses.

I'm not yet convinced on Adarabioyo. Don't think he's necessarily better than our current options.

Lookman is a no brainer.

Etebo is back from injury currently playing for Galatasaray scores are 0-0
Galatasaray 1- 1 Alanyaspor Etebo has just been sent off
