Super Eagles head coach Gernot Rohr insisted his team will be ready for the start of the 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifiers later this year despite their poor showing in the international friendlies against Cameroon, Completesports.com reports.
The three-time African champions lost 1-0 to the Indomitable Lions in the first friendly last Friday.
The West Africans were totally outplayed in the second friendly which ended in a 0-0 draw.
Rohr is however confident the team will be ready to get off to a good start in the qualifiers in September.
“We will be ready in September for the World Cup qualifiers,”the German tactician told the NFF media after the game against Cameroon.

“We hope the fans can return to the stadium in September after this crazy Pandemic (Coronavirus), which has made everything difficult.
“We have to start well in Lagos (vs Liberia) and four days later, we play in Cape Verde.
“Cape Verde beat Cameroon 3-1 on their synthetic pitch recently. So, we know already that it will be very difficult.
“Our first two matches are very, very important.”
The Super Eagles will host Liberia in their first game in the qualifiers and then travel away to Cape Verde for the second fixture.

This guy is a joker. Yesterday, Super Eagle was unable to beat Cameroonian team B. Cameroonian coach changed almost all the players that beat Nigeria in the first leg still we can’t beat them.
I was expecting the coach to come and change nigerian focus to world cup qualifier and that’s what He did this morning. He will use those milky mouse team in our group in world cup qualifier to shine. forgetting that we are going to meet strong teams in Nations cup.
Rohr has been Nigeria coach for five years now. even a student that gained admission to study engineering same day that this man was employed as Super Eagle coach in private university would have graduated by now. Stil we are yet to have a team that can handle big team in Africa.
we have talented players in Nigeria no doubt but give all the best ingredients to someone that don’t know how to cook soup, the soup will still be a mess.
we have indigenous coach that won’t collect up to what we are paying this man and will deliver. someone like Amunike.
I have said it before and I’m saying it again, with the way I see this man Nigeria will not win any cup under him. You can even read it from is comment before and after every game.
God bless Nigeria
@Godstate thank you abeg. I am waiting for the day NFF will hire a Nigerian,give him free hand and pay him as much as Euro 50k per month.
How far your onuachu @jimmyball
@Godsate for gods sake are you deluded, who was playing a team B in that game if you are honest to yourself, so we that a re missing Balogun, Zaidu Sanusi, VO9, Samuel Chukwueze, Samuel Kalu, Leon Balogun, etc Joe Aribo, who else should I name again? Ola Aina, Kenneth Omeruo. I can go on and On. where we playing with our A team. you see when I say most are clueless on this forum I will get attacked yet I am right. @Godsate, please get your facts straight before commenting to avoid looking clueless. Please stop making Cameroon look better when in actual fact it is Cameroon first team who couldn’t even beat Nigeria’s B team not the other way around
Hahahaha…haha.. Is this the one n only Ugo Iwunze? Lolzzz. Wetin happen? ABI you just dey tease? Anyway thumbs up for this posts. People just dey carry Yan. We won all our qualifiers, all of dem gbes. We lost one, draw one with a gra gra SE team put together within 2 days to Cameron first team in a friendly, all of dem come here dey cast. Dem go cast, cast, cast so tey ballot box go wim, still OGa Rohr n SE even now with Ejaria n Lookman n maybe Oliseh go dey kite kite high n high. Make the real thing start abeg, I no dey for all dis many iyanokpaja internet coaches.
@Glory Lol i just had to set that one straight people should not spread false rumours about the lines up of the teams.. Any true Nigeria football follower would not have made the comment @Godsate made. if Indeed they actually know our current crop of players
I mean VO9 alone is a game changer so is Samuel Chukwueze. I mean Zaidu Sanusi who was dynamite for Porto in Champions League. there is no doubt these three would have impacted the games, let us criticise objectively.
I personally I will not shy away to criticise Rohr when he under performs with a full strength squad, everyone here knows that. not when he has up to 9 regular players missing that is bordering unfair.
Even with ejaria,lookman,olise nothing will still happen we will not win anything.the man said he wants players from Bayern,real Madrid, Liverpool,etc lookman and co are not playing there so,no hop because that won’t happen anytime soon.
In as much as I didn’t appreciate the results from the friendlies,I am not the least worried going forward. We would do good when the real men show up.
The bane is that there wasn’t anything surprising from the friendlies. Rohr acted in character. Rigid.
What we have known about Onuachu and Iwuala was made emphatically clear.Hype.Not good enough.
If we look beyond emotions,we all know who should lead the line in terms of our attacking positions.
Based on precedence and form,my humble self rate Osimhen,Sadiq,Dessers higher than anyone else. I dare say, Even Simy is better than Onuachu.
let’s imagine that Osimhem and Aribo decided not to follow us to nations cup, does it mean that we won’t be able to face all these north African nations?
Rohr is still making errors that he made in the last nations and world cup matches and he is not ready to change.
A good coach must be able to read the game as it’s progressing and developed tactics with the available players to win the opponent.
If you look at our matches, technical inputs from our bench is always almost zero.
This man you are not a good Coach. You are always talking rubbish from your mouth.
You are to afriad to take risks. You loved your comfort Zone, And this your comfort zone is affecting football development in Nigeria.
Ndi Rohr is a PE teacher. Ngwa Rohr is not good enough for the Super Eagles. Shame no catch you na? The coach now states we are ready for the World Cup qualifiers. Ngwa is that not good enough?? Be satisfied with what you have. Rohr is better than Pep Guardiola. Take it or leave it.
The loss against Cameron in d first leg made them play with so much confidence in d second game,while our guys were jittery,going forward I would advice the coach to stop forcing miss in the team,he has clearly past his prime,we are going into WC qualifiers for God’s sake,we need players for the future,an ejuke should take his place and play so that he will be confident enough over time,Musa has done well for Nigeria but in football u can’t give what u dont have ..the likes of iwuala should not be called up any more till he is ready for national team,right now he ain’t ready,same goes to the 30 Gail’s man.how do u score all these goals in ur club and anytime u were the super eagles jersey,all get from him is to balloon the ball away.he has returned to factory settings same as iheanacho who after each game ,leaves us confused as to wheather to play him in attack , number 10 ,wing etc he fumbles any where u play him.i have studied the super eagles since rohr took over and it seems it was because we were having a bad run bf he came and due to the quality of players we had at the time,Victor Moses,mikel, and ighalo and determination of the boys,they stepped up and qualified from a difficult group.the problem rohr has now is that he is still living in the past,we are no longer in 2016,some of those players are either retired or have lost form,eg people like Simon moses,Musa,iwobi, iheanacho and shehu are no longer the players they used to be in the past.rohr should have focused on his midfield,in ite and use different midfielders and try to solve goal scoring problems.how many Gail’s has Simon scored fo SE? same goals to iheanacho and co.witjout a good midfield,if u like play lewandoski ,he will be like onuachu.we need to scout for midfielders and focus less on strikers and wingers Everytime we have a match ,rohr invited up to 19 attackers and only 3 midfielders and each time we struggle for goals,u can do same thing Everytime and expect a different result.we need to concentrate on midfielders period.
It has finally come to a reality after much anticipation…
Looking for to a line-up as follows:
………….. Okoye………………
Aina…….ekong….Balogun…..Zaidu
…. Aribo…. Ndidi……… Ejaria
…chukwueze… Osimehn…. Lookman…
Subs:
Uzoho
Awaziem
Ebuehi
Bassey
Henry
Etebo
Akpoguma
Sadiq
Dessers
Musa
….
Oga where is iwobi??? And where are the midfielders???
Your team is full of wingers and attackers … Only one midfielder on your bench???? Na whaoooo
Bros, no Ejuke? You have to squeeze Ejuke into that squad ooo. We need am.
Love your selection of Calvin Bassey and Dessers though. Nice wan.
Very boring!
With this Franco German Coach, Gernot Rohr in charge,Nigerian football is going nowhere. It shall be on the decline.
The NFF officials have made it differences to sack him. A whooping sum of $2M to be paid to him on termination of his appointment.
Surely, NFF officials have cuts from this bogus contract. It’s a scam and all the officials needed to be investigated.
Which other players is Rohr referring to when he said we didn’t have regulars? If there are no players what about Onuachu, the highest goal scorer in Europe. Kelechi was exceptional in England. Our goalkeepers, Okoye, was doing well in Holland. Indidi was a dictator in the Leicester midfield recently. Tell me which dept of the field coach Rohr doesn’t ave good legs. Please change this coach now.
You can go and change him now or better still send your CV to the NFF and let’s see what you can offer.
Whether you are blind to the results of our friendly matches or deaf to the yearning of Nigerians, that is your problem. Just don’t brush me with your mediocrity. Dem tell you say I be coach? Yeye man. Stay in your lane joor.
It is mostly clueless and senseless Nigerians like you that are crying to crucify the coach for ordinary friendly match results. You want him sacked but in your foolishness and senselessness you can’t even come up with a reputable replacement. All you’re here for is crying like a Shegoat on heat opening your rotten mouth wah wah wah change this coach now. Go and change him na. Oponu. Maybe it’s Rohr’s fault that you lost a bet. Oloshi eeyan. I’m in your lane now. Let’s see what you got.
It is worthless and shameless idiots like you Aphilidefool who will fail to identify a pattern of failure even if it lands at your nose. Who is talking about just one match and what is it to you anyway??? My Rohr ass linking idiot. Man is talking about a string of poor results this bird brain Aphilidegoat is talking about just one match.is it my job to come up with a suitable replacement or why are you asking me foolish question. If you don’t know, there are 100s of very good coaches currently out of work all over the world. Even if I come up with names will the NFF listen to me ? In your foolishness you are asking idiotic question. So, Aphilidecow, are you saying Rohr is the only coach in the world that the NFF can appoint at this time. Old boy stay in your lane joor . It is Rohr’s fault I lost a bet, if that is how you spend your pass time it shows how shallow minding and myopic you are to expect everyone else to do the same. You chose to pick fight and call names because of your Gernot Rohr, don’t you see how stupid you are.
You can go and jump inside lagoon or better still make use of a wet electric wire because Rohr is here to stay at least till after the AFCON. I’m confident that my SuperEagles will rise to the occasion when it’s that time. Whatever happened afterwards so be it. Mr stupid imbecile what results are you crying about?? Is it the ones that we failed to qualify for 3 out of 4 AFCONS?? Or the ones that we’ve qualified for 2 consecutive AFCONS?? It is only a Chimpanzee brain like yours that see a pattern a failure. Mr myopic fool please describe failure for us na?? Brainless Idiot You can take your betting frustrations on idiots like you who are only crying because of friendly match results. Go ahead and sack him na. Oponu sọwenu.
Hahahaha you work at the Power Holding company. If dem born you well go and touch wet electric pole without proper PPE idiot wether you won’t turn to Suya. Hahahaha hihihihihi. I can touch any electrical stuff in my house because it’s only 110 volts here in the States because I know your Chimpanzee brain will never know that since you’re stuck inside Sambisa forest Lmao!! If dem born you well go and hug wet electric cable of 220 to 240 volts. Ọdẹ. Ṣebi yiu be fish go and jump inside lagoon make we see na? I’m ok with licking Rohr ass Who are you? Electric wire licker LMAO!! I laugh in Japanese. Must I agree with you that Rohr must go?? If you know what freedom of speech is don’t I have a right to ask you to give me a reputable option?? Brainless Baboon. I can not let you lie to the forum about results that are insignificant. Tell us what are the patterns of failures you’ve been crying about like a German Shepard?? If you can ever get close to where I am In your entire miserable life your entire generation will be happy for it. Hahahahaha. Oloshi, Oloriburuku somebody. I get time for stupid assholes like you on this forum.
You talk like an animal sometimes…
“So, Aphilidecow, are you saying Rohr is the only coach in the world that the NFF can appoint at this time”.
see he-goat why not go and hire your world class coach that will work for seven months without pay
You’re not worth my time. So piss off. Why did all the big name coaches fled the SuperEagles job like a plaque when they realize they couldn’t steer the team to qualify for the WorldCup including your miserable self?? Aṣierejones.
I thought by now, NFF should have announced the departure of coach Rohr.
This coach have failed over the five years and he have over stayed.
NFF should give us four years. Yes, all we needed Is four years.
Now, NFF should have a law in place. This law should get everyone involved including NFF members.
Anybody that caught doing any atrocities around our sports should be fired immediately.
Now, get Amunike, Manu Garba, Egbo, Enyeama and Ikeme on board. Give them four years to build this Super Eagles team.
If they fail, then NFF should turn back to foriegn coach.
By hiring these our ex players, NFF won’t spend more money, they will build us a solid team in less than two years and taking world by storm.
Oga Rohr have wasted five years for nothing.
Let’s look at the Cameroonian coach they he organized his team both on Friday and on Tuesday encounters.
He made his substitutions around 55 to 60 minutes and in yesterday match, he changed the entire team and made his substitutions earlier in the match while our coach as usual didn’t allow his new players to play and the one that tested the actions were given few minutes, is that how you build a team? Is that how you prepare a team for world cup and Afcon?
Amunike, Egbo, Marnu Gerba, Enyeama and Ikeme should be the new Super Eagles coaches.
No time to check time. Do something NFF. God bless Nigeria!!!
I’m sorry Omo9ja Rohr has met his target of qualifying for the afcon and the world cup playoffs is on the way until he fails to qualify for the world cup I do not see any need for his sack unfortunately.
You do not sack a coach that has met targets in official games only for losing and playing a draw in just a friendly game.I do not see that happening unfortunately.
Just a quick question @Oga Greenturf.
Sir, are you satisfied with what you saw on Friday and on Tuesday against Cameroon?
Remember that the gaffer have bn with the team for five years and compare his subs and tactics to the new coach of the Cameroonian team.
Let assumed you were the owner of the Super Eagles. What would you do in this situation?
I am waiting for your reply sir.
Hmmm. Ire o. God bless Nigeria!!!
Omo9ja or whatever, please don’t waste space here again with your senseless submissions, you are becoming too much unbearably irritating
@Omonaija .. What make you feel Amunike, Manu Garba, Egbo, Enyeama and Ikeme will work together ?
Who will be the head coach and head goalkeeper trainer ?
Last time I check , If Amunike can’t work as assistant to Rohr , what make you feel he would work under EGBO and Vice Versa ?
Why do you think Ikeme would work under Enyeama and Vice Versa ?
You don’t just assemble a fantasy coaching crew and team as Reality is different from Fantasy .
Reality is not social media and football fantasy bro .
nairaland.com/6304793/amuneke-im-good-enough-super
What make you feel the players would even respect the names you mentioned above or accept them because last time I check , tons of footballers have egos .
I’m sure you still remember OLISEH saga with the national team right ?
Both players and coach having egos problem which causes unrest in the team
planetfootball.com/quick-reads/15-of-the-premier-leagues-most-uncontainable-egos/
Rohr is this and that , Coaching is more than just typing and assembling players to train and play .
Most Nigerians Coaches have Zero man management and that is crystal clear for everyone else you want to deny that .
In conclusion , even with the names you listed above . SE would surely loose some matches , draw some matches and win some matches BECAUSE in football , no team dey win all matches
The names you mentioned does not guarantee that SE would win the next AFCON or WORLDCUP after Rohr exists .
A certain Mourinho with tons of Trophy didn’t win any cup with Tottenham Hot Spurs ( ZERO TROPHRY ) .
A certain Roberto Martínez is the national team coach of Belgium since 2016 and currently the best team in the world . Yet Belgium never win WORLDCUP or EUROS .
Infact Belgium played a draw recently with tons of Countries include the latest match with GREECE .
FOOTBALL IS NOT A FANTASY WORLD AND THERE’S A BIG DIFFERENCE BETWEEN REALITY AND FANTASY .
Oponu look at this nonentity miserable moron. Is it my fault that you’re stuck in Sambisa forest living with Shekau??? I should come and spend one week in Nigeria Mr Brainless rat. I’ve spent 6 months in Nigeria at time in recent past. If you want to know I’m always in Nigeria at least once a year. So keep your dumb skull advice to yourself. Mr Ọdẹrinde Oriburukutọsiẹ. Look at the way the Baboon is trying to emulate American way of insults Lmao!! I laugh in Swahili. Your miserable moronic brain should allow you to drop at least one name that should replace Rohr at this point in time. Clueless idiot. I’m glad to be living a good life abroad while you’re still looking for a way to escape from the Sambisa forest you’re living. Garbage asshole living in a shit hole. Hahahahaha! That’s why the only thing your Chimpanzee brain only come here to say is sack Rohr now. Write a letter to the NFF na. Ṣebi na insde the same shit hole una they live?? Atọfungbemu. Bloody nincompoop. Tell us the pattern of failure dumb asshole.
As my name suggests, you can ‘ring my bell’ sucker if you you don’t like my views. Mind you, I am not so sure you will get an answer. Haha haha! Rohr ass licker.
https://youtu.be/WLtw3yzq2HE
Hahahahahahah!! You can shove your rotten balls on your stinky ass bloody fag. Yes I lick Rohr’s ass because he has met his targets of qualifying for the AFCON until he fails to qualify for the WorldCup I will continue to lick his ass. You can continue licking your brainless bell asshole.
Aphylideshit, after all said and done, I still feel Rohr should be sacked and I refuse to give you names of other coaches Mr Americana. You have failed woefully in your mission. All your other words are worthless, as worthless as you, pig. If you like, live on Pluto you are shit to me and you don’t influence my views. Olodo. Now, make like a bee and buzz off, your presence stinks. Aphylidetoilet.
Mr Nosoundidiot. After all said and done Rohr will still be here for the foreseeable future so I bet you will continue to cry like a bush rat till after the AFCON at least. Lmao!! Mr deep your head in the shithole. Your crying for his sack doesn’t hold water you miserable moron. Can’t you see how ridiculous that sounds?? Mr lick your bell ass. I can’t influence you because you’re comfortable with the shithole you’re stuck at. You’ve tried every means to escape but poverty has made an oath with you and your generation Lmao!! It is you that will soon flee like a bee because I will always be here for miserable morons like you. Oloshi Ẹranko jatiati.
Guys easy, I think the problem is from the technical bench and I will explain.Rohr need a lot of help. We need a very competent and astute coach as assistant to Rohr.He will act as the match reader and makes recommendations to Rohr for implementation.
The late keshi had the technically brilliant sylvanus okpalla and Houndinuo( who he pays from his pocket) Westerhof had Jo Bonfrere.Siasia had Simon Kalika the dutch tactical master.Fanny Amu had the late abdullahi doing all the tactical work.
Rohr have the inexperienced Joseph …….. I leave you to fill the gaps
Amunike would have fitted the bill perfectly but having being head coach of Tanzania, it is beneath him to become an assistant .Besides his salary in Egypt is fantastic for him to consider leaving.the NFF can hire Okpalla or bring back Manu to add steel to the technical bench
FIFA finally cleared Ademola lookman and Ejaira to play for super eagles
source because it is no where on the Media
Lmao!! Why have you stop posting your American music?? I don laugh tire. Stupid clot pole scumbag. I will continue to ask you for better options as long as you keep crying like a Chimpanzee for Rohr sack. If you have a problem with that then you son of bitch can continue your swimming skills in the ocean. Who is looking to be your friend?? Why would I be a friend to someone who is rotten in a shithole?? A scumbag like you Lmao!! Keep your useless friendship to your miserable self. Weeere. Jatijati. What is the pattern of failure miserable moron don’t have an answer. Give us other better options na American music the idiot Dey post and claim he doesn’t care about America Lmao!! Ẹranko radarada.
Oh you he have missed me Aphylideidiot, okay no worries, anytime you miss me again follow the advice in the link below. By the way, if Rohr starts to win more games, like I said, will be happy. Presently, you only have two options, Jack and Shit, and I just heard that Jack has left town. Haha haha haha. For now Americana, whenever you miss me again, you can ring my bell!!! Haha haha haha
https://youtu.be/URAqnM1PP5E
Thank you for licking my American ass. Lmao!! Keep fooling yourself de go. You don’t have to wait till Rohr starts winning games asshole. Continue crying like a bush rat for his sack why stop now?? Hahahahaha!! Olodo. Keep licking my American ass how sweet is it fag??
Mr mybrainisuseless. Don’t worry continue crying like a bush pig with rabies till September. We will cross the bridge when we get there because that’s a WorldCup qualifier not inconsequential friendly matches Mr lickmyass.
Rohr assleakers Mexico is on the wait i hope you guys will be arranging new excuses? Assleakers!!!!!
Maybe you should ask your children the correct spelling of ass lickers. Miserable moron always living with Baba Ijebu. We don’t care about Mexico friendly. It’s just another friendly dumb asshole. Our focus is on the WorldCup qualifiers and the AFCON itself.
Ask him he will tell you why he’s doesn’t want to comment on this forum one day and come back as soon the team is winning. Brainless assholes flocks together.
Prick!!!
Idiot.
Asshole. Mr suck my D….ck
Feed your dick to your boyfriend, idiot. I am not in love with you.
Who is in love with you?? Better continue sucking your electric pole bloody fag.
Asiere radarada Rohr has been useless against quality oppositions mostly in inconsequential friendly matches. We’ve beaten top oppositions under his watch in important matches so you don’t have any point whatsoever Mr mysensehasbeenusedformenstruation?? Come here stop doing soapy you bloody fag,
You are talking rubbish afilaka.
You’re just blabbing gibberish.
Eat shit. Pig face
Shove it up your miserable ass. Rabbied pig.
Listen, Aphylidelooser the next competitive match is in September. Your intellect should be able to comprehend that between now and then, there is nothing for us to chat about. You can keep biting trees in the meantime. I have nothing to say to you. If Rohr performs, happy days, if not……
No keep shouting like a rabbied dog till September na? You don’t need to stop there’s still another inconsequential match next month so I don’t expect you to stop bitting trees till then. Abugijẹẹ. olofo. Apọọda. Ondatọọ aṣieeere. Better keep your prescriptions doses by your side because you will always need it.
Inconsequential to you. I will still comment on the July friendly and expect you to hang if my comments anger you. For you, football is only about competitive games so, see you in September. Swine.
And you will always meet me here. I never have any problem with you wanting the coach to be sacked that’s your opinion because your brain is worthless. However, if you can’t answer simple question then you are in deep shit you asshole. You’re bereft of ideas that’s why you can’t come up with a better option. We don’t need your support till after September keep your miserable support to your sucking pole.
Let’s wait and see how the Super Eagles will perform in September. For now, talk is cheap. NB. If Rohr turns it around, good for everyone. Aphylideclown
Moron. If Algeria and Cameroon beat big teams in friendlies haven’t the SuperEagles under Rohr defeated Argentina and Poland in friendlies before? Mr. Inogetbrainatall. Bloody fool.
If we win our WorldCup qualifiers we don’t need you to change your stinking mouth. Keep crying like a horny Mr Hegoat all over the place for is sack. Iyana ipaja internet coach Lmao!! Nonentity.
Idiot Aphylidecrap. If Rohr turns a new leaf, happy days. When he performs like Algeria and Cameroon in friendlies, happy days. We wait and see. Bastard retard.
Aphylideomoale. Pray Rohr turns a new leaf. If not, calls for his sacking will ring out from Lagos to Los Angeles. Bastard.
Mr oloshi. That’s your own problem. Keep bitting trees till September. Ore pẹ aṣiere gbagbe. ọmọ ẹranko
Mr Lunatic. As long as Rohr meets his targets he will remain here till after 2022 Mundial. Therefore, your days of madness and bitting trees are extended. Hahahahahaha!
Aphilo Philo. Americana, na dis matter you still dey? You no dey tire?? The tin pain you small Sha. Pele. Emini daddy e.
Awọn Baba ẹ lawa jẹ.. Yes i no de tire for nuisance like you.
Aphilo Philo, leave dat matter a beg. After de next match we go visit am. Baba e ni mo je. Aphilo Philo! Aphilo Philo!
I go dey here they wait you. Na me be your Daddy. Keep bitting trees till September. I’ve made you submit to stop crying sack Rohr. Lmao!!
Okay Aphylidedaddy… Lol. Whatever makes you happy. Yeah Rohr is the best and only coach for Nigeria.. hahahah
Don’t worry Rohr will leave eventually. Either after AFCON depending if we make it to the final WorldCup playoffs. As long he keeps meeting his targets no worries. If he doesn’t trust me I will be the first to request a change. As for now he can’t be sacked because of an inconsequential friendly match.
Clap clap clap clap!!! Aphilo Philo, you too much. You don talk am finish. Please, help me with data senior man.
Wa wa alright.
Rohr na king of coaches. Sir Alex Ferguson na him house boy. Arsene Wenger na ant beside Gernot Rohr. Nigeria is blessed to have this world class coach. Aphilo, we go win the world cup next year. Anybody wey disagree, me and you go show Dem pepper. Deal??
Chaii! Now I have seen it all, heard it all o!
Haba! imagine a coach of a whole Super Eagles telling us that playing Cape Verde will be very very difficult??!
That’s a different level of hand now, owo onirun, hehe my advice is I know that you have it in you and also the situation on ground, but as long as you choose to carry on, then do the right thing, draw an immediate line under some people’s participation in the SE – I’m sure you you and your team know the ones in question, I won’t mention any names, but know this – you are in a very good situation, all you need to do is put some work in and change that team! many names have been bandied about and you know them all, there are even more- those who we don’t know of/haven’t heard of.
Please Oga Rohr, do the right thing, it will be better even to go there and lose every game with kids/a new team because the same thing is surely going to be the outcome with the team as it currently is but it will be better at least with a new team and you never know, everyone knows we (Nigerians) are naturally blessed with talent, all that’s required is a competent mind to galvanise the raw material and surprise the world again as we have done once or twice in the past!
I enter siddon look mode – I no fit shout
Ok, you folks needs some chill pill, the discussion should be about super Eagles and Rohr’s technical abilities not personal insults. Many people are nervous about this team and Rohr’s leading this team to the promised land. For me I think we don’t ve a solid team yet, and Rohr’s not doing enough to build a fearsome team, maybe he has given us is best, and his best might not be good enough for us. Can u guys what the Phoenix suns doing in NBA playoffs with a young team, young coach.By the AY my Bro Rohr’s not the only coach in the world.
Of course Rohr is not the only coach in the world. He will move on afterwards. At least after the AFCON. My question is which better option do we have at the moment? And please I don’t want to hear Amunike, Emenalo. Egbo and what not. How are they different from Oliseh who ran away in the middle of an important qualifier?? Can they work 6,7 months without getting paid?? Remember when top coaches were avoiding the SuperEagles job like a plague because they felt the target given to them was unrealistic. Only Rohr accepted the challenge and qualify for the Mundial from an almost impossible group. Now he has met his target therefore, I see no reason why he can’t continue because of an inconsequential friendly match. We created barrage of chances despite only getting together 2 days to the first fixture. Our focus now is the WorldCup qualifiers and the AFCON proper. The WorldCup qualifiers will determine the AFCON squad. Thank goodness we now have the options of Ejaria, Lookman and possibly Olise. I’m absolutely optimistic about my SuperEagles.
@Sunnyb .. You’re wrong as the Phoenix suns is made up of Veterans and young cores . Last time I check the team have one of the best PG ever in basketball ( Point Guard ) in Basketball in CP3 ( Chris Paul ) and other veterans in Dario Saric & Jae Crowder .
CP3 has won the NBA Rookie of the Year Award, an NBA All-Star Game Most Valuable Player Award, two Olympic gold medals, and led the NBA in assists four times and steals a record six times. He has also been selected to eleven NBA All-Star teams, nine All-NBA teams, and nine NBA All-Defensive teams.
Ayton is a future DPOY and Booker is a scoring machine in NBA ( Top 10 best player under 25 player ) .
So please don’t compare SUNS and SE as we don’t even have such tools @ all to make such comparison
It also took years for the SUNS to have this current team and chemistry .
Don’t forget this is their 1st NBA Playoff in eleven years ( 11 years ) .
So my brother , SE fans no get that kind joy or patience biko .
Pls NFF should sack Rohr now and let us have peace biko. NFF should sack Rohr and go bring the Amuneke and Finidi they will owe for 2 years (both players and coaches) and expect unbeaten streaks…LMAO.
And mind you his replacement MUST win AFCON o. We dont want to hear stories. That magician that will replace rohr and will never lose or draw matches MUST win the next AFCON. Because Rohr has suffered over the years to build a team that even the B squad can stop 2017 champions and the next hosts Cameroon from creating any clear cut chances in 2 consecutive matches
Don’t mind them ore pẹ awọn aṣiere gbagbe. When all the preferred coaches were avoiding the SuperEagles job like a plague we didn’t see them. They can now come out from their cave to cry for his sack because of an inconsequential friendly match. Lmao!!

Why I understand the worry but I don’t think it should be overblown. The Super Eagles is not in crisis. Far from it.
We haven’t lost in a competitive match since our loss to the eventual winners at the last Afcon,Algeria. That’s something.
Teams like Ghana,Cameroon,Egypt etc.have being blighted.
So I see no crisis.
We have a good team. We all know our starting eleven. The problem is we haven’t gotten the replacement sorted out yet. That could be remedied. We have the materials for that.
We should hold our horses; even if we disagree in issues relating to tactics and selection,it should be constructive and not come from a place of unnecessary panic.
Though I do have my concerns and reservations about Rohr in some instance, I am still confident. For what’s worth, he has never failed to qualify, there is a balance in the team( when everyone is around) and more importantly, there is calm and respect in the team.
Let’s take it easy and see how things play out..
When I say some people doesn’t have sense they will say we are insulting them. How can they say a team with Chopo moting in Cameroon starting eleven is the second team. The fact that their coach changed is started eleven from the previous match mean what? This idiot as usual displaying his lunatic by listing all the nigeria indigenous coaches to coach the team at once as if it its from his father pocket that they will be paid. Hatred and sentiment has blighted their sence of reasoning..
Super eagles finally going against another competitive team, which is a really good time to rate them. In my opinion the top African teams in no order are Senegal, Cameroon, Ivory Cost, Algeria and Morocco, which Nigeria is last out of the group.
A lot of these countries are colonized by France. In which these players are already playing in the top 5 league, ligue 1 or French ligue being 5 in the uefa ranking. A Lot of those players are starters too. Crazy thing is half of the players are born in France and choose to play for their French colonized country. To me the reason being is that they have enough top tier players with experience to actually compete and win things. Where is Nigerian people are always begging and pleading for foreign born Nigerians to play for them. But I always say they will easily outgrow the team, knowing few are actually good enough to compete and might get tired of carrying the team.
Nigeria only chance to stay in competition is through friendlies where the coach stay experimenting, so many one, two or three capped players. The lineups are never consistent. But people here eat anything. There was an article where a bunch of players dropped out because they were injured, I don’t know if that was true or if the players even pull through. But I saw the lineup and found at it was true. I read somewhere else that the reason players dropped out was because of unpaid wages, like always. It was no coincidence that a bunch a players decided that they were injured. Now tell me, why would a foreign born Nigerian would come play for Nigeria when you might not get your money, but in Europe you are most certain. Same thing with the women’s team, the women were protesting.
Back to my point, another way for Nigerians to compete is through the fifa youth competition, its how Osimhen and Chuckweze got recognized. Nigeria has the most u-17 world cup, but that doesn’t translate well for the final team they cant even make it past the second round. Lastly is through relegated or under 1 tier teams and or out of the top 4 uefa leagues and work your way up. Ngolo kante played in French third tier league, then worked his way up. Sadio Mane worked his way up. Edouard Mendy was unemployed, was constantly trying to make a team, then he got noticed by chelsea goal keeper Peter. The thing is outside of foreign born players in France they are players born in Senegal, Ivory Cost, Cameroon and etc that are being scouted by French people and others, and they get to play for top tier teams. While in Nigeria Taiwo Awoniyi was scouted by Liverpool, but he didn’t get his papers in order which put him on a whole bunch of loan spells, he got his papers late and now he might get sold to a mediocre team, that’s on him.
When I watch Senegal, Cameroon, Morocco, Algeria and Ivory Cost, I’m like I know most of these players. While super eagles I know few by heart like Osimhen, Chuckweze, sadly Iwobi, Kelechi and Ndidi. All people do here is post new players that should play for super eagles every other day, which relates to my point how there’re so many players with less than 5 caps for the team. Which disrupts the synergy and partnerships with players.
For a team to win something the whole foundation has to be good. I know Nigerians here are corrupted by heart by promoting a bunch of players to be slaves, working for free, imagine that. I thought slavery ended. I just don’t see the super eagles being successful where the federation cant even pay its players, its just not gonna happen. And I dont care about what a past player said about should of played of Nigeria because I would have played more, even for free than playing a few time for England because they will actually pay me, thats the stupidest comment I ever heard. Yall really have no jobs to keep talking about Eze, Lookman, Aridibayo, Nmecha etc every other day. Why would a European born Nigerian getting paid come play for Nigeria and not get paid? Spamming their social media is not gonna help either. These players will have great club careers, but not national team careers. People keep dreaming and hoping, hope is irrational. All this team is gonna do is rinse and repeat, rinse and repeat. People reject a call up and or not playing because they are not getting paid then they look for another sucker. Just a bunch of poor players who been relegated or dropped down from a league. From poor Collins to Awaziem.
But how was that first game? It was bad when they were playing with the sprinklers on, in Austria. my gosh. Andre Aguissa shot could of been saved, but the keeper was late. Like I said there are numerous goal keepers from French colonized African countries that play first ligue in France, even democratic Congo players. While people here desperate hanging on to Okoye. Cameroon, Senegal, Congo producing great goal keepers able to play in top leagues. Onana play for ajax that almost made it to the champions league finals. I guess Iwobi poor performance from Everton carried on to the team. Carlo Ancelotti left, I want to see if his performance change with a new coach, because I was not feeling him. But nice to see Olayinka
For the second game Marcus Abraham had energy, was seeing him up and down. Olayinka needs more chances. The game was still poor, Rohr aint getting paid so he hitting it where it hurts. This guy is going o two world cups. Even of Rohr gets fired, who they gonna get? Who wants this job?
