My Respect to Rohr for the courage to drop Aina for Echejiel

[metalalloy]

Look, Ech is the better and safer pick. We do not need to be blooding championship players in the WC...if we don’t entirely need to. Uwa’s club fortunes have nosedived too, but he at least has experience.

Experience of what?

Getting burned over and over again.

I don't think I need to answer that. You know already. You don't like him, and that is fine, but that he has experience at the highest levels of soccer is incontrovertible.

It's OK to say you don't know.

It's OK.

Correct!

Rohr has shown uncommon courage.. considering the fact that Aina was cajouled with a World Cup place to switch Allegiance to Nigeria..
For me Aina didnt loose out to Echejiele but to Tyronne Ebuehi and Brian Idowu.. I must admit Ebuehi improvement has been massive.. One of the best RB in Eredivise and his handling of Di Maria... Because Aina can also play Right back.
I wish Aina doesnt get offended and still remain committed with the Eagles squad..because Echejiele position would open after the World Cup..

There's no upside taking a mediocre Echijile over Aina.

NONE!

That’s what they all say until a blood rush to the head pushes Aina to clumsily bring down an opposing player in the box. Penalty. Bye Bye Nigeria

Dude has been on a STEADY decline...

Are you hoping he discovers the form he did not discover at the multiple clubs who have seen him day in and day out and gave him his walking papers?

I have a feeling Rohr will still take him as a backup, but dude is not it!

Since he keeps harping over and over again about experience, you are probably right. recency bias will probably work against Ola Aina.

It's OK.

It is. It’s also ok to say you know. Ola Aina’s experience should not be mentioned in the same breath as Ech’s experience

Because Aina is about 10 years younger.

One hopes when he reaches Elderson's age that he would have done a bit more with his career....
