The coach should have benched oshimrn and oliseh till the second half and use kanu and okocha in the first half

Everything, there was no game plan whatsoever

Go pay him his accrued and outstanding salaries!

BUSI105:
both coach and the players are clueless

The players are not up to scratch, that doesn't mean our coach is the new pep, but those players should have done better especially osimhen who lost begging chances. I hope we get it right against Ivory coast

Like say no be connection most of them use get that position una neva see anything for this country

Oboto700:
Iam one of those rooting for the sack of poseiro before this tournament.. yes.but going by yesterday's game, honestly speaking our players have to be blamed. We created 7 good Chances and scored just 1. Is our coach expected to come in and score those goals? Please let's allow that Man to breath.

No patriotism bro. Nobody want to die on top Nigeria matter and ruin his club career.

Do the best you can but no kill yourself may be their slogan

You carry children way dey form billionaires enter pitch wetin u expect??... No team spirit, all man won play him own make dem for hype am! Wasting chances and overated and over hyped Chickens!!.... Make una free that innocent Coach abeg!, Him job na to coach not to play or to score goals!!

Timagex:
As much as I hate to admit this, I believe our problems are more than physical. If osimhen was in napoli's jersey, he would have bagged an hattrick. There is this dark spirit that clouds our players whenever they are in Nigeria's jersey. Take a look at how oshoala bangs braces for barcelona and struggles here.

Something beyond the physical is going on. I believe it and I know I am not alone.

that spirituality are u suspecting is what i am seeing as lack of team spirit, dedication and purpose.

Oshimen and Oshola scores those goals for pay they need to find equal motivation to do same here.

See sometimes when the spirits sees your purpose and determination they will even support u.

For the first time I watched Nigeria match in football showing centre and only 4! people cared to joined me with the owner of the viewing centre making 6! A lot has gone wrong in this country. So, the way I see it, the passion to keep Nigeria flag flying high in football is gone. the eleda of people in the hands of kidnappers is making Oshimen missing chances like Jackson of Chelsea and it's looking bleak already. I believe Airpeace is warming up to bring home our players after group stage but prayers can change it.

The current Super Eagles of Nigeria is just an assemblage of some brilliant individual football players but a very weak and directionless team!

They don't want to put their best for the fear of injury in other not to lost out in their foreign team.

They should make way for more hungry and determined youngsters who are dying to put on the National colours of Nigeria.

Sadly is only NFF that can determine this, till then Super Eagle may never be better.

Una get mind o, una de watch SE match with that state wei them dey? I no wan die quick, make dem no give me hat attack.

Pajero no get any blame from me..

He don do wetin most Nigerians complained about...he changed Uzoho and also started Yusuff...

Na bad luck Infront of goal no enable us win the match convincingly

Should have removed IWOBI right from the first half. He was not in the game, no work rate, no run ins, assist or defensive effort. Dude was just blank!

This is the dumbest thing I've heard this year

Messileo10000:
See, super eagles no serious.

Sloppy defense, no attacking prowess or creativity from the midfield, and lack of clinical attackers.

They are not just motivated. [/b]If na like this we wan go face Ivory coast, we go collect nothing less than three from their hand[b].

Well, sometimes, Football doesn't go like that

Exactly. Something is holding them back.

Looking at it from another angle.....

A country of over 220 million people versus a country of 1.6 million people.

Alimosho Local Government Area in Lagos population is 1,953,500 bigger than Equatorial Guinea.

Football no be by population ooo

by this logic , China should be winning the WC, followed by India.

The super eagles needs a therapist to boost their confidence. Not everything is physical some maybe going through a lot

Coach should have taken out Simon earlier

I don't know the credentials that made him to start Simeon ahead of chukwueze



Simeon hardly give accurate pass, he hold on to ball too much, his long pass is always over the box


introducing new wingers in the beginning of second half would have change that game

they didn’t do anything wrong. It’s just normal with Nigeria.
You better don’t give yourself high BP over super eagles and their coach. Also lower your expectations, because you will be disappointed. Surely .

Substitution was late...zanusi was suppose to be removed right from 45mins. Osimhen got a goal, so he is forgiven. But zanusi was just so poor.

I initially spotted a risk in the midfield. Only 4 or 5 midfielders were named in the 25 man list(alhassan is injured now)...who will distribute the ball to strikers?.....Iwobi played below par.

When you learn under a professor
Is different from when a head master give directive

no mind the coach, when he finished playing with Ivory coast that's when he will know how bad his team is.

I disagree, you have an unmotivated team because the coach is clueless. Take a cue from the Chelsea under Lampard and the same Chelsea under Tuchel..

We need reforms in our NFF.

1) Only ex professionals football players should be allowed to run the NFF. Kanu, Ekoku, Amunike, etc. Law should be brought in place to ensure no more square pegs in round holes.

2) Process of hiring coaches should be thorough and transparent. We obviously need coaches with good pedigrees but most importantly, coaches that can enhance how we want to play. Attacking with pace, flare, boldness. I would lean towards Dutch/Spanish coaches if we go foreign.

3) No more owing of money. It’s a big shame not to pay players and coaches. Once budget is released, all appearance fees for the whole year should be planned in advance and payment should be made swiftly. The money should never go through NFF.

4) We need a state-of-the-art training facility in the country that will cater to men/women and youth football. It will have the best sport scientist, nutritionist, data scientist, sport doctors, physiotherapist, coaches, etc. No need to camp overseas except for brief acclimatisation. Once built, we should privatise the facility for effective management. If foreign clubs like Chelsea, Arsenal, Manchester United, etc want to tour Nigeria, they can also use the facility, so there is a commercial route for it to sustain itself and make income to function optimally.

5) Foreign born talents of Nigerian origins should be quickly approached, and the lure of switching their allegiances to Nigeria should be pitched to them ASAP. Imagine what we could have done with a talent of David Alaba! Also, once we get our acts together, they would need less convincing.

poor selection and inept coach....most of the best starting 11 players were benched.


Austin eguavoen's performance in last AFCON was far better

The coach failed to call up the right players; Alhassan was a late replacement for Ndidi. He should have been on the 27 list; where are the likes of Moffi, Cyriel Dessers and Tella?

No effort was made to get Fulham defender Tosin Adarabioyo.

Everything, that man is a fraud!

NFF hired a fraud, he is no coach.
