Speaking at the pre match conference of the team witnessed by Owngoalnigeria.com Osas Mahawi, Rohr said the new players in his team are pushing the regulars for a spot in the starting line up.
Rohr listed three players in particular who are making it hard for him to pick a starting line up ahead of Saturday’s game against South Africa in the race to be at the next cup of nations in 2019.
“It will be very difficult to make a starting XI because we have many good young players now,” Rohr said.
“The young players have brought a fresh spirit to the team and we must go forward and progress.Their integration is going very well.
