JideTheBlogger: Yes oo. Imagine, a team without a player that can play free kicks.. We wasted corners, free kicks. No pattern, nothing.

ichidodo: Keshi should be given a long term contract,we cannot stress enough how much we,at this critical point of our first football golden age since the class of 94-96, stand to lose if S.A successfully poaches the Big boss....

vislabraye: Keshi is good. He's not perfect but he needs some assistant. The post should atleast acknowledge his strengths.

showby: According to the OP:
Keshi's team organisation is poor
Keshi's substitutions and choices are mediocre
Keshi sacrifices merit
Keshi's awareness and proactiveness is low
Keshi has poor man-management skills
Meaning that Keshi lacks all the basic "pillars" of good coaching. Can a coach that has all these weaknesses qualify for the Nations cup or World cup; lets not even talk of winning the Nations Cup. Na wa everybody wan talk football.

mikeansy: Keshi is not behaving like a man who has learnt anything from his mistakes at the World Cup

Kabikala:

God bless you bro.

Under 3 years of Keshi, Nigeria Super Eagles did not score any goal via corner kick and maybe scored one or two through free kicks. And we had dozens of both.

What kind of coach would develop a team that does not know how to optimiize dead ball situations? Recall how Argentina and France both defeated us by capitalizing on the opportunities provided through free kicks and corner kicks. How do the big teams excel? By not wasting the opportunities they get in a match.

Keshi has just been one lucky fella. He is no tactician. Simple.

DeeMain: I think Nigeria should use this transition period to find a great coach who can fit into our system.

I have issues with Keshi. Keshi is not tactically savvy. Yes, he has won us the Nation's Cup, but we shouldn't allow that to cloud our judgement. His team has no shape, his team lacks basic organization (they are all over the place). The commentators were even alarmed and made fun at how poorly organized we were. His substitutions and choices are mediocre (remember Reuben Gabriel for Onazi). What of his choices of players to the WC? How can an ambitious coach go to the World Cup without a bench? And yes, he sacrifices merit (remember Chigozie Agbim, etc). His awareness and proactiveness is low. France hounded us for all of 25 minutes before they scored without a reaction from Keshi. Save for Enyeama it would have been another tale. Lastly, Keshi has poor man-management skills.

I believe we had a bad World Cup. If the Ref had allowed Dzeko's goal maybe we wouldn't have qualified for the 2nd round. 1 draw, 1 ref assisted win, 2 losses and a bad team is not good enough 4 me. Keshi should not be rewarded for his mediocrity.

What's our vision for our team? Where are we going? These questions should inform our decisions not sympathy or emotional interest.

We house a quarter of all black people on earth. We are a giant. We are the hope of Africa. Let's raise our standards. Africa is looking up to us.

amadice: ....what a trash...what do u expect from keshi...thw truth is dat we dont havnt the caliber of players fit to compete at d level of the world cup....all our super stars ar flop amd bench warmer...pls dont disturb keshi even MOU, fegie will do nothing with dat team...free keshi abegii

mikeansy:

Like someone previously said Keshi/Oliseh should be a good combo. They should both keep their egos aside and work together

If Keshi is too much of a big head let's give it to Oliseh. I am confident he will deliver

Football is not rocket science, you either got it or u don't!

The current Swansea coach was a central defender and captain of the side and took over after Michael Laudrop was sacked! He did alright in my view.

mikeansy:

Mourinho and fergie will not take Ramon Azeez and Gabriel Rueben to World Cup ahead of Nosa Igiebor and and Fegor Ogude

amadice: .....both players are bench warmers in there respective clubsides

tonytony208:


you pple keep on flogging this tactical/ technical competency issue. How did he beat CIV and Mali at NC? how did he beat Morocco at chan from 3 goals down? How will you describe musa's first and second goals against Argentina? So you think a tactically incompetent coach would have been able to bring that out of a team (i mean musa had never been a regular scorer for SE)? If you call his achievements mere luck, then it means you will go to any length to make his achievements look like nothing; a disgusting sign of pure hate.

Mr man a beg leave keshi alone. He has shown he is better than any other coach nigeria had ever employed aside westerhof and as a result, he deserves to be retained. What he needs is time and not your pullhimdown tactics and pitiably destructive criticism.

Babyboy1986: Na so you they think?

Calebosko: somebody told me mikel was a snail,but d Germans are more like a milipeed,dats class......sometimes footbal is more dan run run,mikel was class.
