SportsRe: Fans Unplugged: Pay Siasia Well by 12large(op): 5:45pm On Aug 16, 2010

SportsFans Unplugged: Pay Siasia Well by 12large(op): 5:42pm On Aug 16, 2010
A quick scan of the interactive media will reveal that Nigerian football fans not only back Samson Siasia, but they want him remunerated handsomely for the job of managing the Super Eagles.



The 42-year-old Heartland boss is the only coach in the running for the highly controversial post. He is reportedly demanding a $100,000 monthly pay, and a $1m sign-on fee. The NFF has said it can only afford to pay $20,000 monthly, out of which the coach is expected to pay his assistant.



Talks have deadlocked and will resume when the coach returns from Egypt where he took his team Heartland FC for a CAF Champions League assignment.



Fans, furious at the poor return on the Berti Vogts (who got $50,000 monthly) and Lars Lagerback ($300,000 monthly) investments, are demanding respect for Siasia who they see as the best local coach. They insist foreign coaches are not better, and as such Siasia should be paid comparably.



"The Nigerian Football Federation should try and meet Siasia's demand. Our local coaches need to be encouraged for them to get results. Afterall we know how much coach Lagerback collected for just six months. NFF no excuse, this time around failure is not an option." - Adeosun Musbau



"NFF should pay Siasia what he asked for, to me Siasia is better than Lagerback and Berti Vogts. Siasia is our own so he should not be underpaid" - Alexedewor



"Where was the money going to come from to pay whatever it was that Largerback was going to earn if he had extended his term with them. Not even did they offer 25% of what they paid Largerbackfor the World Cup talk less of half of it. They should go back to the drawing board and come up with a reasonable offer otherwise he should tell them where to shove their job I say. Arrant nonsense and a clear case of a Prophet having no honor in his own country." - Valteena



"Is Siasia not better than Berti Vogts who was paid $50,000 per month? Siasia should be paid the same amount of money Lagerback was paid - Masterj4arsenal.



From the economic perspective, others believe that paying Siasia competitively will benefit the local economy more, since he would spend the money locally as opposed to the foreign coaches who spend the bulk of their money overseas.



"Siasia spends/reinvests whatever he is paid into the Nigerian economy. Lars and Berti didn't. And Siasia is better than those two by all ramifications. I wouldn't take less than $50,000 per month if I were him." - Brownnel2000



"Why not pay this guy some good money for Christ sake? At least he will still plough the money back into our economy through spending. What fraction of the amount that we paid Berti Vogts and Lagerback did they spend in our economy? Absolutely nothing." Eric



However not everyone is in awe of the former U-20 and Olympics team boss, whose club is wallowing at the bottom of their CAF Champions League group after losing their second successive match on Sunday.



"$100,000! For what? What choice does he have if we refuse? Who else will pay him that much? He should feel honored to be given the job. For me, anything more than 20,000 dollars should be rejected. The fact that England paid Sven-Goran Eriksson 4m pounds did not make them to pay his successor McClaren the same amount. In fact he was paid less than 1m pounds. It may be true that Lagerback was overpaid, however that does not mean we should continue on this road to sanity! Let him prove himself first before demanding more." - Emma



"N15m for what? abeg siasia wants to take advantage of the media, because many nigerians want him he wants N15m. Even Amodu that qualified us for the World Cup two times was never paid N15m a month. If Siasia keeps misbehaving they would just give Bonfere Jo the job. Siasia please reduce price so you can get the job." 12large.

SportsRe: Whats A Fair Price For Yakubu? 1m Or 8m Pounds? by 12large: 1:59am On Aug 13, 2010
yakubu is and has always been a rubbish striker for nigeria, but in the premier league if he plays the whole season his a guaranteed 15/20 goals a season so for that reason his worth at least 8million

so do you agree or disagree with amodu. for me as long as eguavoen,chukwu and amodu was once nigeria coach, then i think siasia deserves his chance because his better than those 3. the only problem i have with siasia is his arrogance. should he get it job it won't suprise me if he starts inviting players like ambrose vanzekin,promise isaac,efe ambrose so people would say ohh thats siasia boys. thats what he did in 2009 instead of taking chrisantus and udoh he was too arrogant even lied that santus was injured, while he clearly knew that chrisantus was going to be fit for that tornament. if he get the job hope he realize that his no more coaching "siasia siasia boys' but super eagles.
SportsSiasia Not Competent Enough To Coach Eagles - Amodu by 12large(op): 6:28pm On Aug 10, 2010
Former Super Eagles handler. Shuaibu Amodu has kicked against the choice of Samson Siasia for the Super Eagles Manager's job.

Amodu declared that danger looms for the national team if caution and meritocracy are not applied in the choice or who will manage the Super Eagles in place of Lars Lagerback whose contract was not renewed after the 2010 World Cup.

Amodu who qualified the nation for the first-ever World Cup on African soil before Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) chieftains brought in Lagerback said that a lot of sentiments are already being used to give out the job which should not be so. Already, the media has determined that the job should be given to Siasia. Is he competent to manage the team? Does he have the pedigree?

"A lot of factors are supposed to be used in determining who manage the national team. Are we following due process in our choice of him?

Though he paid glowing tribute to the achievement of the former Flying Eagles Head Coach Samson Siasia, describing him as one of the country's brightest and upcoming coaches, he insisted that the NFF must not use sentiment but scratinize all those interested in the job currently occupied by Caretaker Coach ,Austin Equavoen.

The former BCC Lions and Orlando Pirates of South Africa handler spoke about his readiness to face the House of Representatives inquiry about the country's flop at the 2010 World Cup which will get underway on Tuesday in Abuja.

"Actually, this is not the first time I will be facing the National Assembly after dismal outing at various tournament. After Japan/Korea 2002 World Cup, I was invited by the National Assembly. My findings are already in place and I'm ready to state how we got it wrong in South Africa."

nomoface that is an old story. like i said we cannot blame mourinho anymore, even if mikel plays as a dm he should do more than sideways and backpass. against united minus one long pass to kalou and anelka, all mikel did was to pass the ball back to who ever gave it to him. thats not mourinho fault

it seems like if eguavor have taken bribe, because he did not call up his best players. how can someone that aspire to be super eagles coach, and was a former enyimba coach but he don't know his best players. surely barthelomen ibenegbu,ahmed musa,gbolahan salami,josiah madubuchi,solomon okpako are among nigeria best in homebase and there is no reason while unkwon players should be ahead of them. to the foreign players ayila is already out injured, etuhu is -1 so we have only kalu uche as the natural good midfilder. probable first 11 for nigeria
