We underrate this Sierra lonean team at our own peril. Those guys are not coming for jamboree. We should put our acts together or face a shocker.
Victory to the eagles though…
But I will still say that Rohr is gambling with our midfield.
is it just me, or the players look funny? lolz (I really laughed)
I don’t even recognize any of them. we’re still talking of how to integrate simy who have scored 3 goals already in seria A and Paul onauchu who’s the top goal scorer in Belgium league. and I’m hearing Iceland, this Leone players no go kill person.
who would have thought that a day would come when we will see a team and write them off? I remember how bad things where then, when you fail to qualify for afcon back to back, you really start to shiver against any team, even if it’s against one that is 200 in fifa ranking. super eagles, truly speaking, has improved!
how many of you could remember when we played onazi as a fullback, all because of lack of options? now here we are debating how we will bench a left back that’s playing in bundelisga 2
all glory to God (not rohr), for bringing these abundance of talents to our doorstep
@kingston, why u nor remember when we won afcon three times. U didnt remember when we have about 4 afcon silva, you never remember that we have won over 6 afcon bronze, you always forget how we have been to worldcup in 6 occasions and rish the last sixten in two ocassions, you also lost the memory of our olympic Gold,silver,and bronze we have in our history, all you keep remembering is how we fail to qualify in few occasions just to design Gernot rohr, and lambast our people as usual( self hating) your remembrance is only of our bad memories, abeg pack well jare. Was egypt in all afcon? England have missed out on several european nations cup and wcup. Even Netherland that have been a wcup finalist in over three occasions, where they not missing in 2002 wcup, and also in the last worldcup? Where they in euro 2012?Why are you painting our few missed occasions on our face, everytime just to raise an unecesary arguements. So bcos we lost out of those afcon we should not wish for the best again abi? We are nolonger a footballing nation abi? So if we see what is not good we should keep quiet afterall we missed afcon before. Bro pls reason the matter well. Maybe its ur Rohr that gave us all our past glories that has made us become a giant of football. Listen keshi won afcon without losing a match, u dont remember that, 90 percent of our players today where firstly invited by keshi,siasia,oliseh. It wasnt by merit, infact it was by juju, the oyinbo wall including omeruo was founded by keshi, may br they paid him bribe, if so they have also been paying Rohr bribes? Before rohr we have had over 10 foreign born in our team and it was Nigerians that convice them, balogun, osaze, ekong, abbeygoerge, sone aluku, anichebe, carl ikeme, etuhu, vmoses(born in Nigeria but was in engish underage teams) bright dike, efe sodje, etc, now compare them with the few once Rohr have been able to convice and tell ur self who have done better, keshi qualified togo to their first wcup he was still sacked and togolese didnt care about history, tanzania discharged amunike despite creating history for them the tanzanians didnt care either, you can support our coach without reciting simons of our failed moments, nobody will have problem with that, thank you sir.
