Super Eagles coach, Gernot has reacted to the performance of Arsenal star, Alex Iwobi in Nigeria’s 2-0 loss to Serbia at the Hive Stadium on Tuesday night.
Rohr said Iwobi played individually particularly in the second half of the game.
The German tactician said that the 21-year-old wanted to make a show, adding that the Super Eagles prefer to play as a unit.
”With us all the time, he’s very good, already in Poland and he was fantastic tonight,” Rohr told Evening Standard.
“Perhaps some times [he did] a little too much individually, he wanted to make a show. We prefer collective football.
”But when he can eliminate his opponent it’s very good. He’s with us all the time in confidence. He’s free when he has the ball.
“I don’t know what the tactical options of Arsene Wenger are when he’s with Arsenal but with us he’s free offensively and he can show all his qualities.”
