They are finally coming out of that low block. This is where a good AM would have ripped them to shreds.

There’s no way the SE practice set-pieces. Woeful.

It was me.

but the players chosen by Rohr is still poor.

Both goals came from our defenders flooding the box, not from our general attacking play, which has improved but is still average.

Musa has been a passenger, Collins offers nothing. Both should be replaced for Ejuke and Aina respectively. Had they both started I'm sure we would have scored more by now.
Lots of us called for 3-5-2 (Solace Chukwu wrote a good piece on it) but I’m not sure it’s one to boast about after watching the first game and considering our personnel.

Personally, I think Musa is done with the SE but to call him a passenger today is a head-scratcher. His best game since the WC, only outplayed so far by Balo.
Musa has been getting into good positions but he cant give 'that pass'. He is not a passer at all. But to call him a passenger is just 'vancityesque'. Nothing to see here.
Why has Nacho been so poor ?

Because he has been dropping deep and we know he aint a midfielder.

So why is Nacho dropping deep when Rohr has deployed an attacking midfielder (Musa)

Because Musa has been a passenger

and as I type Musa blows a wonderful chance.

Musa wasting all the free kicks and corners. Should have been selfish there but chose to pass.

IN OUR CASE, THERE IS NO TIME. NO SERIOUS COACH WILL TAKE THIS JOB

Pasamu on Monday Feb 22nd 2010 post ANC- I will repeat again, the problem with our team was never ability or personnel or even tactics . It was confidence pure and simple confidence. Amodus team had been spat upon, anything they did was dismissed as insignificant To see the team going from playing brilliant football against Egypt in the first half of their ANC group game to the cautious fear laden play against Zambia was sad.

But he brings a lot of hustle in the midfield, something we lacked in the first game

Finally put together a good flowing attacking play and Osimhen finds a way to miss it…

hustle with little end product.

why he is called "chickenhead"

We didn't have 3 midfielders in the last game, so you are comparing apples to oranges.

watch what would happen should EJuke play that position.

we are wasting our time with this clown manager.
