@Kitaun, warfarian.
Thank u jare kitaun, i quite agree with you. That boy or man called Yobo is costing us alot of havoc, really I still don't see him in the realm of half of uche okechukwu yet with alot of opportunities and support given to him. I read in a daily recently, he was tongue lashing Almighty Chief Segun Odegbami MON, a mediocre player like him and most of them that refuse to listen to constructive criticisms from analytical elders, of course woe on to him.
This is not Nigeria standard, it is high time this team is disbanded before they dented our image the more. The only appreciation and consolation we get outside Nigeria both in Africa and in Europe is our soccer.
We don't have attackers that can score goals like Rasidi Yekini, we don't have mid fielders like Okocha that can command the tempo of the game. Yes, we have Mikel, but Mikel can only play good football if he has good team around him, maybe Martins as well. Mikel releases ball often, he doesnt seem to be a very skillfull ball joggler.
As far as i am concerned, this team should be disbanded. Only Mikel, Martins, Odewingwe and the goal keepers should be left behind if possible
@warfarian
please. don't let us be talking this way, don't join issue of football with our leaders please.
These players you are encouraging to be holding Nigeria to ransome at any rare opportunity are not the best from Nigeria, but because all of them have opportunity to represent Nigeria once or couple of times. That was the begining of their stardom.
They should be eager to render selfless service to the Nation that exposed them to the world.
Go to Ajegunle, Surulere,Mushin,Epe etc etc in Lagos alone not to talk of Enugu , Abia sokoto kaduna rivers. You will be amazed lots of intelligent and skillful players.

Very Stupid to lose such a match. I have never been a fan of this Voggts. He was sacked by Scotland a few years ago following a string of bad results. With this kind of defeat I can't see us progressing into a formidable team everyone is expecting us to be. There is no excuse losing to Uganda. Penalty or no penalty it's simply OUTRAGEOUS. Sack this German now, I don't think he has the pedigree then again there are so many factors contributing to our woeful performances in recent years. The players are there but when we have a bunch of potbellied Men who know nothing about Administrative Football then I see no considerable improvement.

@ Adura ngba, do we really have to play so many games to see what is obvious. Berti Voggts is not the right man for the Job. Trust me I give this man two years tops he'll carry his load and waka. I don't think we should be losing a game to a shitty team like Uganda, UGANDA you kno hear the name. You sabi any solid Uganda player. I am tired of people giving lack of matches for our poor performances

We should not blame Vogts, Even if we use Jose Mourinho, Nigeria may not still win the match, The determination of the boys are not there and its right time to use home boys players to execute such a match, The boys that beat Kenya were concentrated with Home boys, there bloods are red and thick and are ready to make impact even if they are to die on pitch. The mentality to approach the match wasnt there. No sponsors on the Nigeria side that will motivate this boys, MTN uganda motivated the Ugandans to beat Nigeria. Donations came from various quarters. Super Eagles played the game against 13 players, The referee and the crowd made this list. This boy's were bad indeed.  It means this Foreign base players can't play and beat Enyimba or Rangers our local league teams? Someone should answer this question. But even if they were not motivated they should use there international experiece to avoid defeat, We will go down considerable on FIFA rankings, The NFA must pay for this damages they are causing the nation, I'm ashamed I'm a Nigerian, If it was Brazil we played against that means we are expecting basket of goals to carry home, Haba |

what really annoys me is that we keep making the same mistakes again and again, if its to sort out our problems I can't see us doing it in the nearest future. We should just hope things go well with our current form of organisation.

I am happy with some response I saw on this board but to hit the nail on the head our woes has nothing to do with NFA, nor coaches it is simply a case of declining talent no good player again in the Nigerian game example in the last season how many Nigerian players played the UEFA champs league?
WHich Nigerian player has ever been highest goal scorer in any competitive league before (I am not talking of Malta, Cyprus Sweden and Singapore)
We find it convinient to blame NFA was it not the same people that were in charge in 1994 and 1996 the same disorganisation yet we won I could remember in 93 or so when they forgot players kit and had to cut their joggers to knickers for them to play Burkina Faso yet we won 7-1, Then Keshi and co would arrive the camp 24 hours to kick off and we would still win with staggering margins that was because the quality of our players were by far better than those of other African countries. The African footballer of the year used to be a roll call of Nigerian players now we have very below standard players
And we Nigerians refuse to face the fact we would blame everything in this world from racism,as if Nigerian is the only black nation in the world-Senegal and Cameroun that played world cup quarter finals are caucasians,
to officiating as if everybody in the world is against Nigerians we are always quick to forget the circumstance for the cancellation of Uganda's goal in the first leg,
to bad pitch forgetting that Nigeria beat Gabon on a sandy pitch in Ponte noire courtesy of Rashidi Yekini,
to bad weather, to muscular opponents(Cameroun) to CAF, to Hayatou, to hostile fans

, That match was a comic relief i thank God i don't watch Nigerian matches no more, i humbly suggest they pass a bill in the Senate that bans any Nigerian from calling that team Super Eagles, they should be called Eagles no Super preceding it, Those boys are still in Dreamland they should know by now that African teams don't fear them no more P:S What is Makinwa still doing in that team can you imagine that chance he squandered

Only 4 players are from the supper eagles, kanu,taiwo,martin,utaka, all the rest are all home players, the coach should have try to win that matche first befoer filling in home base players, what the hell is he doing?
Not that we don't want the home base to improve, but crucial match like that shold have been won,first before experimenting.
Anywhere Hope we win our next match to at least qualify to Ghana 2008

Now we all can see footie is not just about parading stars but form. Some said we robbed 'em in our Bossom here, how true is that? With the number of stars paraded in that team, one would think we will just punish 'em easily, but we didn't  If we have to struggle against a Ugandian team, hw much more when the ACN starts and we get to play Cameroun, Ghana Ivory coast and the rest  Sacking Berti is the not the solution. The solution lies amongst the players 'emselves. Thanks.  |

The Ugandans scored a good goal in Nigeria which was disqualified and the coach promised he will beat us square and fair back at home. Berti Vogts ought to enforce discipline in the team by making use of players who are willing and available. If something drastic is not done, nothing for us o even Enyimba FC will beat our Super Eagles all over Nigeria.

I THINK THE SUPER EAGELS SHLD CHANGE their NAME TO A MORE APPROPRIATE NAME LIKE "SUPER COCK" OR "SUPER CAT". THEY ARE SUCH A DISAPPOINTMENT TO WATCH. GONE ARE THE DAYS THAT I'LL SACRIFICE ANYTHING JUST TO WATCH MY DARLING TEAM PLAY EVEN WHEN NEPA TAKES LIGHT, You JUST HAVE TO LOOK FOR A WAY TO WATCH THE MATCH because WE ARE OBVIOUSLY GOING TO WIN. THOSE DAYS THAT THE SUPER EAGLES WILL BEAT A TEAM BY ATLEAST 2 GOALS TO NIL BUT NOW, JUST MANAGE A SCRAPY GOAL AGAINST A SMALL TEAM OR LOOSE BY A WIDE MARGIN TO A GOOD TEAM. THOSE DAYS THAT THE EAGLES WILL CREATE CHANCES UPON CHANCES. You ARE SO SURE THAT A GOAL WILL COME BUT NOT THESE DAYS, FOR A GOOD CHANCE TO COME: IT PROBABLY WILL BE IN THE DYING MINUTE.
I can't REMEMBER THE LAST TIME I WATCHED THE SUPER CATS PLAY. GUESS IT WAS THE GAME AGAINST GHANA AFTER THAT, JUST GET THE SCORES SO THAT THEY WONT MAKE ME SAD EVEN IF THEY WIN.
THE 1ST LEG AGAINST UGANDA WAS A LUCK AND THE UGANDANS EVEN SCORED A GOOD GOAL THAT WAS DISALLOWED BY THE REF BUT THEY PROMISED THAT IN THE RETURN LEG, THEY'LL BEAT THE SUPER CAT FAIR AND THEY DID.
IF NOT FOR PATRIOTISM, I'LL JUST SHIFT MY SUPPORT TO GHANA. GOD KNOWS WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF WE PLAY CAMEROUN, AM SO SURE WE'LL BE BEATEN BLACK AND BLUE.

i agree, super cats shld just go and play in the wafu cup instead of the nation's cup so that we wont mess up. if care is not taken. ghana 2008 will be nigeria's worst nation's cup because most afican small teams now know that nigeria is no longer super eagles but super chicken

I'll like some of us to know that despite our loss to the Cranes of Uganda, we're still topping the table with 9 points while Uganda has 7 points. More so, another match will be played on the 17th of this month. So why don't we wait till then and see what happens before we continue to condemn and share blame with this and that?

Until Nigerians accept that there is a problem with Nigerian Football as a whole, there will be no change. We will keep going round and round in circles.
Players
We should accept that we do not have a world class team. We have never had. We see our players as superstars. We believe Nigeria can boast three world class teams. We believe We have more talent than any other Country. All these are bogus beliefs. Blatant Lies. Our playes are average at best. And worse the quality of our team is below the sum of its individual average members. How many of our players play top roles in top European clubs? How many even play in top European clubs? The team of of 1994 was succesful not because they were stars in Europe, but because they never thought of themselves better than they were. Today we don't have a Goalkeeper worth that name. our best defender Yobo alwaysplays below par for us. Shittu is just average. Taiwo despite his 'age' is at his peak and will only go downhill. midfield? only hope is mikel. maybe obodo and olofinjana too. he rest? rubbish. attack? average playesr. no bite. why any sane coach will play ayegbeni still beats my imagination. He's just a carbbon copy of emile heskey. The sad part of it all is that the above is the best we have to offer.
NFA
the source of our problems nfa. simple. administratively incompetent. devoid of ideas. i seriously doubt if any member of the nfa is in that board for the interest of nigerian footbal. they are all there to make ends meet. people often wonder why these players keep complaining about money and allowances and ticket refunds. its simple. why should they spend their money when the money meant for these matches is being shared by nfa members? if there is no money we will understand. I don't know of one good idea that has come out of NFA ever. not one. wether for the Local league or the International game. I remember in the late 80's and early 90's i could tell u names of playes in our local league. today i don't even know the teams. i don't know when the league starts or when it ends. the league has never started at the right time in the past five years. Until the NFA gets its act together, there is no hope for nigerian football.

The NFA is underfunded and so cannot pay player bonuses, hire a world class coach and all.Inspite of this, i blame the players.Very very few of them are patriotic.The whole idea of playing intl games to them is to make money and with that attitude we would never get to that height we deserve. We should accept that we do not have a world class team. Exactly. |

I was actually dissappointed. I think our local players who are hungry for fame and cash will do far better than these foreign based players.
They do not see their call up as a service to the nation rather they see it as bothering them.
It shall be well.
