Re: Super Eagles would have qualified and won Afcon-Rohr
These are all conjecture o.
The FACTS ARE:
We did not qualify for back to back Nations cup and a WC prior to Rohr. He qualified us for every AFCON and WC as the coach. His comment was that we would have qualified for the WC and won the Nations cup if he remained coach. Based on FACTS and his record, I agree with him that we would have qualified. He did not show during his period as the coach that he would have led us to the trophy, so I do not agree with him on that. He may not be the best coach technically, but he knew how to get the team ready when qualification was at stake.

We would have beaten Ghana in Ghana and in Nigeria.

The problem wasn't who the coach was but who we were paired against.
Said as much when the pairing was announced and natives who are not students of history were immersed in premature ejaculation were rejoicing.
Rather not qualify than have that coward of a coach take us to the World Cup to go and learn again... going there to make up the numbers.
My argument then was that having suffered the humiliation at AFCON and also being paired against their archrival, they will come highly motivated. And they did.
What won the game was more of a desire.
Both games ended in draws but they 'won' based on away goals rule.

Re: Super Eagles would have qualified and won Afcon-Rohr
Rohr, Egu, and Pinnick are why we didnt qualify. Rohr for his penchant for Oyinbo born that cant compete well in rugged African footy when the stakes are high and African referees lets questionable tackles slide, Egu because he wasn't brave enough to change out Rohrs core players, and Pinnick for sticking with Rohr for so long.

Only half a line of that entire paragraph are “facts”, the rest are merely OPINIONS!
Meanwhile, your logic is NOT how football (or frankly life) works…
Keshi qualified and won AFCON for us, and then failed to qualify for the next AFCON!

Ugbowo,
We would have won the World Cup under Rohr. Never mind that we lost to almighty Central Africa Republic at home. LOL.

Re: Super Eagles would have qualified and won Afcon-Rohr
The sacking of Rohr was not the problem. His replacement with a dinosaur was the problem. If Pinnick had stuck to his agreement with Peseiro to have him be with the team at AFCON and take full control after the tournament, hae would have had an unprecedented 3rd term as NFF President in the bag. The problem was that he listened to those who supported the dinosaur because he was a local coach and thereby put sentiments ahead of common sense.
The result was DNQ and Pinnick losing his job.
The unfortunate thing is that these sentimental folks are just doubling down and refusing to accept that they are part of the problem. They have not for once said that with hindsight, Eguavoen was the wrong man for the job, rather they keep waffling and giving excuses just like their comments on this thread.

Although why should Peseiro not have taken over BEFORE and not AFTER AFCON ?
That never made any sense to me. Just a way for the crooks to sneak in their clients before Peseiro took over. Also I think they were hedging their bets to see if they could get the job done without hiring a foreigner. That ultimately was a horrible decision.
Peseiro should have taken us to the AFCON in Cameroon and not that 442 1994 dinosaur.
We never do things right.

General Rawlings,
Be honest bro. You know Ghana won by luck. That is, a combination of an error and the 'away goal' rule. So, ...
And the BIBLE says: The race is NOT for the swift, neither is the battle for the strong nor ... but time and chance makes them all.

Re: Super Eagles would have qualified and won Afcon-Rohr
If Ghana won by luck, then the Amodu curse that somebody cursed us is part of that ‘luck’.
Which normal country does the same thing first time, second time, third time each resulting in costly DNQ when no be say dem curse us?
We dey shout, shout, shout “who go be the replacement? Weytin be his achievement?”, dem say “Wait first, we dey come”. Some even say “sack first, ax kweshon later”.
We are now asking foolish kweshon like, “when World Cup dey start?” and, “which one is better, DNQ or boring football?”
I’m supporting Ghana jare.

No one knows if Rohr would have qualified us for the world cup, but what I do know is that the man is full of crap

Re: Super Eagles would have qualified and won Afcon-Rohr
Lies lies lies.
The Oyibo born Lookman was responsible for our ONLY goal over 2 legs against Ghana.
Meanwhile the home born Osimehn couldn't stay onside to save his life and kept attempting spectacular overhead kicks rather than concentrate to score. Or what about Simon failing to square for a tap in ? That one na Oyibo ?
Uzoho failing to stop a simple shot na Oyibo right ?

Perfectly put!!!
While Ghana were busy working hard behind the scenes, Egu and co went to London to chill...
While Chris Hougton and co...was looking for players to augment his team, Egu was looking for a Thompson Oliha.....
If u fail to plan....u plan to fail.
Eguavoen planned to fail, thus he did.....no other explanation

...are all of them not 'full of crap'?
What foreign SE coach have ever left his job with flying colors?
They win and win, until they start losing we frustrate and chase them out.
I stand to say, Rohr as pragmatic as he is could have scrapped and qualified us for wc, and even go further at the AFCON.
