Please somebody should tell stephen keshi to start watching uero 2012. Someone should show the players these tapes. Why in heaven's name can't we play like them? Don't tell me anything about giving them time to blend and all that because if the players have it in them and are told to play like that,what would stop them from doing so?if they are told to play tip tap till they get to the opponent's penalty area would they say no? Is this problem from the coaches or the players or both? Why should a country like Nigeria struggle to beat the likes of Namibia,Rwanda and Malawi? Countries we ought to wallop 3-5 goals on a very good day, whether na home or away. Take an instance from the french team of 2010 that went to south africa,they were indeed the worst european team in that tourney if not the worst that made it to s.a. Their conduct on and off the pitch was grossly ignoble,shameful,dishonourable and . . . And . . . And Disgraceful.The super eagles even fared better than them. But take a second look at the french team of 2012 at the euros. How many years did it take them to rebuild? Once the coach came in he knew perfectly what to do,he ousted the players who had less or nothing to contribute to the team and brought in fresh robust legs. Today the french team is a combination of youthfulness and experience. A team thats likely to make it to the semifinals of the euros if not to the finals with admirable attacking football. Baring in mind that this was a country we beat 0-1 in their own turf months before the world cup. If a replica of what laurent blanc did with the team is done with the super eagles, 3rd world war go start? If the super eagles start playing like Germany or even croatia and start entertaining us obama go resign? Why do we propagate mediocrity in this country sef? How can somebody come out to say he was satisfied with the way the eagles played against rwanda on saturday? Please dont bring patriotism into this abeg, Because celebrating averageness is not a question of patriotism according to my dictionary! If we atleast a quarter of wetin spain dey play boko haram go bomb us?Like my fellow nairalander afam4eva pointed out in the nigeria vs rwanda thread, this team just dey play 'jaga jaga' football. Its like a herculean task for us to pull a string of descent passes from enyeama to the strikers. Infact its just impossible. I cant even tell the kind of football strategy/ideology/formation we are even playing. Why cant we adopt a perculiar style of play and stick to it and let the world know us for it? Why is it impossible for us to field players with world class talent and uniqueness like the likes of okocha and kanu? Why dont we have playmakers,skillful guys and match winners in our team? Does it mean that no single naija footballer can bend a freekick around the 18 yard box? Has football died a natural death in nigeria or what? Is anybody seeing what I am seeing?
