    Honestly, if you think Rohr will not have selection problem and pressure, think again!

    Our biggest problem is actually defense and goalie.

    Attack is packed with different options.
    Imagine if eze, lookman, olise, Akpom, danjuma, ejiara, decide and complete their switches..
    Hmmmmm
