siasia had his chance and he messed up with it even the game itself, is a hand of chance. Let me tell you that coaching a national team, you don't need to teach them how to shoot a ball, control of the ball on and off the air etc during the short period of training that are usually available. A national team coach is expected to closely access the attributes of his players their level of fitness etc. He is to design a game play that will out-class any opponent with alternative options should in case his main plan(a) fails to deliver. Also, his job his expected to be round the clock monitoring of players that may be required to fit into his game plan. Hence, national team coach are generally referred to as Technical Adviser or Managers.
Siasia tenure may appear too short, but it may have been enough for him to prove what we all belived he can do. He is a Nigerian, a footballer at local and international level and a coach at national and local level. Furthermore, most of our present crops of players are all well known to him and with a freehand to choose and drop any players (a gesture that is rare to most of our former coaches from our nff). Therefore, i see no reason why he should fall. Westerholf started impressing us then with his selection and scouting for new players then with different individual skills(although many football analyst were against him then) and he still ahead to qualify us for nations cup. How shall we now compare his approach to that of siasia now?
Let us just hope Keshi will be better if he is ready to correct some of the mistakes his predecessors made. Wish Nigeria the best.
