We already have a very solid core of a good team

Rohr's glaring lack of ideas and tactical ineptitude aside, let nobody make the mistake of throwing the baby along with the bath water. I'm watching the first leg of the Nig vs SL match now for the first time, and up until that bizarre mental collapse in the 76th minute or so of the second half, those boys played some very good football; and the midfield of Iwobi, Aribo and Etebo kept possession very well until that injury forced Etebo out and kinda dulled the momentum (we pretty much lost hold of the midfield from that point) with Iwobi particularly guilty of some very nonchalant football. The core and backbone of this team as we all know seems set already- with of course few more additions expected for various reasons to be complete the team (the likes of Lookman, Ejaria, Alhassan Yusuf?, Nwakali, Noah Sanrenren bazee and Kingsley Ehibizue). The main core are Balogun (make him the captain), Iwobi, Ndidi(boy did we miss him so badly right now) , Etebo, Aribo, Chukwueze, Samuel Kalu, Ebuehi and Osimhen(the main guy right now). Then throw in the likes of Nacho, Ejuke, Ajayi, Lookman, Ejaria, Ehibizue, Sanusi, Aina, Akpoguma etc for a solid depth. It will be extremely daft to rejig the "rebuilding" process again with a new coach... our team is more or less 80% set already. All it needs is just some fantuning here and there.
Now if Rohr gets the sack ahead of next years remaining qualifiers, I suggest a more attacking minded coach with a proven track record gets hired to see how to get the best out of the team... cause those boys are not playing to the best of their real abilities, Rohr has held this team back so much for 4 solid years now.
