Did Keshi win the world Cup.... and as per Manu... Simon, Success, Nacho, Yahaya... ask on the bench and you call that a coach... an international coach keeps his best for attacking players on the bench and uses Ehanoloo(I destroyed his name) throughout the tournament... guy explain that logic...

engrjacuzzi:
NFF will never seize to amaze Nigerians with this issue of foreign coach.
if they need to get a world class coach with pedigree, will they be able to cough out £6m a year when we know that national team coach don't get involved to often just like the club side aspect. if the NFF is indeed serious, they should go for the best hands like jurgen klopp, José mourinho, Carlos ancelotti,.
if that is too high, then we have harve reina, big Sam allaydice, mark Hughes , Brendan Rodgers.

Black man and inferiority... Why white coaches

mmsen:


It's part inferiority but it's mainly fraud.

They like hiring the foreigners because it's easier to get kick-backs from them when they are hired and because they tend not to last very long they can keep making money in hidden hiring 'fees'.

Manu Garba has won an international tournament.

Keshi has won an international tournament.

I guarantee you that the foreign mercenaries that they hire will not have achieved as much yet people like you will somehow claim that they are better.

I am not just looking at results or past glory. And looking at the team! Have u watched the super eagles recently? Did you notice how their games lacked direction and game plan and how it was difficult for them to fashion out chances? That's what I am talking about

Manu Garba has won an international tournament, the u17 world cup. But lemme ask you, why is it that we can't translate u17 success to u20 and national team sucesss? I will tell you. At u17 level our boys when compared with the Europeans are very talented have lots of skills. At this stage kids just play and with our talent we can beat these teams! But what about when the boys start understanding tactics and game plan, then the difference is clear. How can manu Garba use long balls against a German defence who's average height is higher than that of the Nigerian strikers? Many indigenous coaches have won the u17 world cup. But after then what?

I am not just after foreign coaches, but coaches who have the technical know how. He maybe African or European but he should be tactical and willing to develop our players and our football. The Keshi u re calling today is the product of Westerhof!

Any coach picks his team based on the evidence available - if they were left on the bench then he must have seen something that he did not like.

How many coaches currently working have won a World Cup?

How many foreign coaches have Cote D'Ivoire hired and how many tournaments have they won with all the talent that they've had over the past ten years?

Why have Egypt struggled so much with all the foreign coaches that they have had since Shehata stepped down?

What did Berti Vogts do for Nigerian football? Or even Scottish football?

Do you want Nigeria to hire another Lars Lagerback? Is he better than Keshi or even Siasia?

Most of these foreign coaches that wind up in Africa are not very good, that is why they leave Europe because they know that there are foolish people like you who assume that they know what they are talking about because they come from Europe. If you judged them based on their track record they would not be hired at all.

It's bad enough that they come with bad ideas for excessive pay but what makes it worse is that they all coach a horrible (usually northern European) style of football that no one wants to watch and is not successful anywhere.

Nigeria's problem is that the league is not taken sufficiently seriously - for some reason the NFF seems to think that they can partially develop players and then send them abroad and others will take care of them. Players need a viable domestic league to grow into top class players, it is foolish to rely on foreign leagues and coaches to take care of your own.

Look at what Mikel was at 19 and look at him now. Why was a vibrant, positive attack minded midfielder turned into a water carrier? This is what will keep happening if Nigerian football does not take care of itself.

Shame?? Why shame? Nigerian coaches couldn't really prove their selves with the national teams they handled. They had the talents and players with great skill set, but no technical know-how and game plan for each game. That's why u see our boys and girls do the playing while the other teams just observe and score us when they want and game over! We need coaches who can read matches well, understand opponent weak areas and develop a strategy to exploit these weaknesses and hide ours.

I would like the NFF to hire a highly technical and tactical coach who has a penchant for youth development, rather big name prayers. They can also make our local coaches his understudy, so that in the nearest future we could have world class homegrown coaches!

In the wake of the Flying Eagles and the Super Falcons’ unimpressive outings on the international scene, the Nigeria Football Federation seems to be looking towards the direction of expatriate coaches to handle the national teams. While the football house would insist on having expatriates head the technical crews of the various national teams, the back-room staff would still be headed by the indigenous coaches.PINNICK-NFF
Thank God

“The foreign coaches will be given convenient nomenclatures like ‘technical advisers or technical directors with the indigenous coaches working under them,”our source said. The Flying Eagles crashed out in the second round of the 2015 Fifa U20 World Cup in New Zealand while the Super Falcons were shown the exit door in the group stage of the 2015 Fifa Women’s World Cup in Canada.


According to a top NFF source, the Glass House has instructed top level football technocrats to shop for three technically competent coaches who would train the Flying Eagles, Super Falcons and the Golden Eaglets. The three tacticians are expected to come with their backroom staff but they would work with those Nigerians sent to England for courses in the technical study. The coaches who are expected to commence work in July would be expected to develop templates for the three teams as well as train potential coaches that would handle the teams in future.


It was also reported that the NFF will outsource the payment of the three foreign coaches through Public Private Partnership (PPP) with words rife that the federation chiefs are keeping the names of their partners under wraps until the details are sealed with all those involved.
