The dramatis personae in what has become known as the show of shame of Belgium have been speaking on their actions even as they put aside their differences to confront Congo in a friendly match today in Belgium.

Gaffer Sunday Oliseh who described the altercation as a normal disagreement in a family, however, has explained his actions of stripping first choice goalkeeper Vincent Enyeama of the Eagles captain’s band and handing it over to CSKA Moscow forward Ahmed Musa.

Speaking on Brila radio, Oliseh said that the storm was over but insisted that Musa, the man who takes over as captain of Eagles have all the qualities of a good captain.

Vincent-Enyeama-and-Ahmed-Musa

‘’I want a captain who is disciplined. A leader who can motivate other players. A player who comes to camp early. I want a young player not a retiring player as captain. And Ahmed Musa is that player. He is my captain’’, Oliseh said.

When you have a new government like our honourable president just came in, he’s picked his ministers. And you have your philosophy and you have your way of working.


“As a coach I have looked at the team and I have looked at Nigeria going forward. We need a captain who will think of staying with Nigeria for several years to come, who is regularly in the front. And Ahmed Musa did a great job for us in Tanzania under very difficult circumstance. He is a very responsible player and he is the captain of the team. So he is the captain of the team, there is no question of a tussle.

“The fact that I would like to have somebody (as captain) who is thinking of playing now and not somebody who is preparing for retirement or thinking of life after-football. And I think it’s time we had peace and quiet around the Super Eagles. That is why I am glad that most of the players here are finding ways to work as a team because I get the feeling now that they are aware that they are representing 170 million people’’, Oliseh said on Brila. He explained that the camp was in good mood ahead of today’s match. ‘’The players have shown their desire and we are working on stringing them together. It is unfortunate that the home-based players are yet to be given visas but we are hopeful that they will be here for the second match against Cameroon on Sunday’’

OK, continu... Next........

Super eagles should be disbanded before they send some nigerians to their grave with BP.

They need 5yrs to scout for new talented players nd possibly build another Atlanta team..

There is Mo excuse for wickedness

Ride on Mr coach; no more African time.

Oliseh, oliseh, hw many times i call u so? who dey sell pepper nor dey carry hand scratch brokus.... i don talk my own.

Oliseh is stupidd! A man that buried his mum on weekend and tried making it to camp on Monday and you are misbehaving? So you expected him to leave the burial and rush to camp because you are playing heavenly cup? When you were captain were u not about retiring? I don't blame you, ask Siasia what arrogance cost him in that team. They are adults not babies. As a matter of fact enyeama deserves more respect than you gave him. He has played for 13years as an Eagle, with 101caps so far. I smell jealousy.

Oliseh dont kno the rudiment of coaching. He needs tutorial

As a Nigerian Football fan, I respect your decision Mr. Coach Sir.


Your team, your philosophy.


Enyeama is trying to make it about his mum's funeral. Oliseh is speaking about his teams cohesion.


Sai Oliseh..

Sai Enyeama.

Sai Captain Musa.

Am not feeling this oliseh

There seems to be more to this rancour than the eyes can see.

Stop this hate campaign.....Tiago Silver was stripped off Captains arm band in Brazil...was Neyma Jr the next in rank in terms of seniority? The same goes for Mascherano being replace by Messi for Argentina..these replaced old players still gave their loyalty and commitment... Why the Noise from Enyeama many coaches around the world pick their captains..I'm sure if it was LVG, Pep, Sir Alex or mourinho of this world there won't be any cry all over....leave Oliseh alone..this is his time..judge him on RESULT! Because he is an African doesn't mean he should be treated wrongly....If Enyeama cants shape in...he should shape-out.. A coach will always be the BOSS!

Oliseh is in a course of self destruct!

While Oliseh may be right, the emboldened fails to convince me.

Oliseh is either setting himself up for a big fall or for massive success. There's no middle ground.

ok

Oga anything u like u do...u r in-charge

na your problem b that. I already know you will be sacked before mourinho.

one of the most stupid excuse I've seen n heard of By the way he could have done it in a more matured manner

Sharrrrap there Mr Oliseh. Enyeama is old, retiring ,strong, experienced and still performing so what has all your flimsy excuses got to do with his technical abilities and delivery. I see a yakata falling super eagles in Belgium today. Pls don't call me T.BJ ooo!!!

Bury the hatchet or Oliseh , you will fail woefully

Quote me

It very necessary

Shoro niyen?
Rubbish talk 4rm oliseh.
God go catch u, no qualify 4 anytin wit dat ur stubborn head. We go see if na Enyeama dey go sack or u.

Story 4 d gods

IF THAT IS THE REASON WHY OLISEH CHOSE MUSA AS THE CAPTAIN OF SUPER EAGLES, THEN IT MAKES SENSE, SINCE MUSA IS NOT THINKING OF RETIRING YET AND HE ALSO REPORTS TO CAMP EARLY.

You are the coach, you don't have to explain.


NEYMAR -- Brazil Captain.

MESSI -- Argentina


This wont be an exception

you are the coach and you know the best for your strategy, just never lose or draw to keep yourself in the utmost position or you are doomed...... :Pyou are the coach and you know the best for your strategy, just never lose or draw to keep yourself in the utmost position or you are doomed......
