Onuachu has the nod. Physically, he’s just more of a handful to deal with and his club scoring record is outstanding. But I would only drop Awoniyi if entirely necessary. He’s a great player as well

Let’s hope he gives Awoniyi more chances to prove himself like he has done with Onuachu

Taiwo missed a sitter on his debute ; Nigeria ended up losing the game 1 nil. Has only scored against lower Bundesliga opposition. Doesn’t have champions league or Europa cup experience. Wasn’t even his clubs top scorer.

Do you really think now is the time to drop a fit Onuachu in place of Taiwo??????

So drop Onuachu who has proven himself and give Awoniyi more chances to prove himself? If you were the coach that people are screaming that you should be sacked anytime you drop a game, would you do that?

How does a shot on goal that was blocked and deflected by a defender amount to missing a sitter? This is why I love CE

Onuachu is more of a change of style guy. He is far more effective in the air within the goal area. Unfortunately, Rohr has not paid much attention to such option and has stated so publicly. However, Onuachu has managed to take advantage of any slim pickings thst have come his way.

I don’t know what you mean by ‘proven himself’. Onuachu has not impressed, so there is nothing wrong with trying someone else.

Onuachu reminds me of the ex-England central striker Andy Carrol.
Similar role, tall (though not as tall as Onuachu), great header of the ball, he came with a lot of expectations whenever he was invited to the England set-up. However, Carrol never quite convinced and frustratingly he was always only 'nearly' there.

Onuachu still has the benefit of the doubt because he hasn't changed clubs and leagues yet.
In as much as one must respect what he has done in Belgium, one can only get a true picture when he makes that step up.
Its not his fault, but one really has to question why no-one has come for him with such a phenomenal strike rate.

Interestingly, the only club that has shown a degree of genuine interest is West Ham, the same club that Andy Carrol made his name.

You are such a ungrateful SOB!!! Who scored the winner in Benin to qualify Nigeria for the ANC? Your Osmhem played in that game how many goals did he score? Which one of our strikers has scored hat-trick in Europe this season?. You are now calling for a unproven striker to replace Onauchu!!!

1naija wrote: ↑Tue Oct 12, 2021 4:04 pm Proven himself means he has scored goals for Nigeria. The fact is there is only one slot for both of them. One has scored goals for Nigeria, the other has not. Granted he has not had enough chances. Rohr can only chose one of them, so emotions and feelings wont make a difference.

Though he has scored goals, his overall play has not been impressive. He has not lit up the place as the lone striker and not impressed as a support striker. Nothing wrong with trying someone else who might bring more to the table.

BTW, I am not discarding him yet.
