Head coach of the Super Eagles, Gernot Rohr, is considering dropping some players from his starting XI, when they face Croatia in their first game of the 2018 World Cup.
“We have to work on some areas and make some changes in defence and attack. There is time to be ready for the World Cup. Some players are pushing to be considered and it’s a good thing to have competition in the team”, the Franco-German coach said on Wednesday in Vienna, Austria.
Also, Shehu Abdullahi might lose his place to Tyronne Ebuehi, who came off the bench against England and Czech Republic and impressed Rohr at right-back.
Rohr has proven that he is not a respecter of names after he dropped Joel Obi and Ogenyi Onazi against Czech, following their poor outing against England last Saturday.
