Truidstar:
Na pinnick be the coach?

So are you saying he should continue to stay on as NFF chairman?

The Buck stops at his table and he takes the bulk of the blame. That's leadership.

In other saner countries, him and his goons would've resigned but in Naija, they don't. Even if they have terminal cancer

Apart from his goal, nothing really special here

Amadaz:
there's nothing like trying to douce tension. You sounded all like an accomplice. It's important people know the situation on ground cos is a life or death situation in Nigeria now.

You're obviously stressed bro. or a nutcase

Goodbye

Who remembers Sukuta Pasu?

Meliforme:
What of Imama.

What of Aigbogun and Ladan Bosso?

ChrisKels:
I wonder that kinda blessing wey no dey enough for him to at least finish as a runner up in the AFCON

You don't like Rohr. Do you?

Meanwhile, Dennis featured for a little under 60mins before being subbed out AND David Okereke was a 77th min sub entrance as Club Brugges picked up a 1-1 draw at Galatasaray.

Dennis had an okay game and almost scored twice

ChrisKels:
If AFCON easy, why ur coach no win am?

He will get there

Eartquake1:
Africa doesn't have too many top players

They should have just started with an initial shortlist of 10

charlesemeka85:
Nigeria National Team coach Gernot Rohr has been ranked among the top twenty national team coaches in the world by German-based organisation International Federation of Football History & Statistics (IFFHS).

This year's award was won by Fernando Santos, coach of Portugal national team, with whom he won the UEFA Nations League in June 2019.

Super Eagles manager Rohr ranked joint-nineteenth with one point along with Jan Olof Andersson (Sweden), Paulo Bento (South Korea), Age Hareide (Denmark), Marcello Lippi (China), Oleksandr Petrakov (Ukraine U20) and Marc Wilmots (Iran).

The head coach of Algeria, Djamel Belmadi got into the top five (5th, 61 points), Madagascar's French coach Nicolas Dupuis placed 10th with 11 points and Senegal coach Aliou Cisse ranked 18th with two points.

OMANBALA1:
I swear I can't stand that team...I probably hate that country...God help me.

Yea God help you

Wouldn't want to hear that you blew yourself up in a London Store. Do away with the hate

OMANBALA1:
Meanwhile, I can't wait for Super Eagles to rape Three Lions...My joy will know no bounds.

yea, that's true. Forgot to add them

somehow:
What do you know about the NPFL/LMC rules?
What concerns USA laws with LMC/NPFL football laws?
There is a law in the LMC/NPFL guidelines that is capable of handling your "what if"

Do you even know that LMC has its laws different from that of Nigeria as a country and even NFF?

Seems you just love to type. If you do not even know this, then sorry that I thought you did.


Small education: USA law is not what governs the MLS which is their own local league body, the body has its own laws just like FIFA has its own laws.


Have a nice day.

Okay, then let them make sure the laws are stricter or implement them if need be. Apology letter is a slap on the wrist.

TheSuperNerd:
Madagascar.... So that we can carry out a proper surgical operation on them this time.

Hehehehehe **laughs evil laugh**

lolll

I wanted to list them but It's not worth wasting time on people we will beat. It will hit harder on them when we knack them in a proper tourney

Comoros nko

somehow:
We are talking football, you're talking USA. 10 years because? When we have seen worse. There was no physical assault recorded from him

Bros, try to to read and understand...okay. Stop jumping into things

If he had successfully incited a riot, lives may have been lost and I gave the laws in the USA guarding against that as an example.

Please read and understand next time or ask for clarifications if possible. Shikena

TOP 5 FRIENDLIES I WOULD LIKE THE SUPER EAGLES TO FEATURE IN THE NEXT AVAILABLE WINDOW

1 Algeria: Well, they beat us and in grand/embarrassing style. I don't mind playing them away. It would be an interesting battle between talented attackers on both sides. We should watch out for Mahrez and render him impotent this time

2 Portugal: They are a very tactical side who adjusts based on their opponents.I personally expect them to get to the Semi-Finals of Euros 2020. It's been said that C. Ronaldo scores well against teams within our position (FIFA ranking). I doubt he would get 2 goals against us though. This match would expose our young crop of players to world class football. Since we did well against Ukraine and Brazil, I expect us to do well against them too. Truth is, the players we should actually watch out for is Jao Moutinho and Benardo Silva.

3 Senegal: Games against them go either way. Mane is phenomenal and Koulibaly is a rock in the hear of their defense and no wonder both has been selected in the shortlist for Balloon Dór. Their midfield is also quite compact and they are quite physical too. Should we win, i don't expect it to be more than a goal margin

4 Argentina: Our perennial foes. Our bane in most World cups. Truth is, I love when we play them. They bring out the best in our defence. However, I feel we could have beaten them many times in the times past had we gotten our tactics and player selection right. I want us to play an in form Icardi and Di-Maria with an out of form defence lol. Should be an interesting match. I predict over 2.5 (lmao)

5 JAPAN: Very fast side which Klopp would be happy to coach as they can run for 90 mins non stop without tiring. Talented players like Takashi Inui, Shinji kagawa, Takefusa Kubo, Okazaki et al should keep our defence on their toes. I feel their Midfield is the most talented (compared with other areas of the team) and the battle will be won and lost there. I expect a win from us though.

Feel free to add yours people

somehow:
I would have preferred they serve at least 80 percent of their punishment before any break is given to any erring player or official.

They already set a bad precedence in the past, so not doing same for Kano pillars may be seen as 'witchhunting '

The preferred punishment would've been to ban the guy for 10 years because even in the USA, inciting a violent protest carries jail time because people could end up dead. Then, o would go ahead to ban the club for 10 matches. When they drop that many points, they'll keep their carpenters in line.

LaMujer:
But no o. Rohr must be sacked, because he hasn't achieved what a particular indigenous coach achieved.....

Those asking for Rohr's sack are either going to benefit from it or don't really have the progress of Naija football at heart. He's the best coach we've had since westerhof

Truidstar:
is that not the player whose wife was waiting for him at the airport with their baby? An u17 player.

Those guys were way older than their professed ages. Looking at them just gives their actual ages away

andrewbaba44:
I just saw that now bro

It’s all over everywhere that Messi will win ,I hope so

What if VVD wins it.

However, my mind tells me that Messi would win and maybe VVD comes a close second with Mane in 3rd position

Ayoothniel1:
Boss, please what does “opianto” mean?

If you know Chinwetalu Agu, you'll know that most Nigerians don't understand his expressions of surprise

Clementoke:
Rohr talks tough as he makes case for outstanding wages

With just seven months left on his contract with the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), Gernot Rohr, the German coach of the Super Eagles, is making it clear that he is looking at his options.

“The President of the Nigeria Football Federation has told me that we will sit down in January 2020 for a discussion and the conclusion of the extension of my contract, which runs out on the 30th of June,” Rohr (pictured) told this reporter, during an exclusive three-hour conversation in Lagos, Nigeria’s commercial capital last Friday.



“To be very honest, I have enjoyed the last three years with the national team of Nigeria, because I can see the progress that I have made with the players over this period.”

“I think that I have the chance to do something with this group for the 2021 AFCON in Cameroon and the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. The players are young, disciplined and willing to learn. I am very happy with them and my staff. We have formed a strong team, a strong unit,” he said.

“But I am surprised that the federation are taking their time to conclude a contract. And to be honest, I am also surprised that when I was given a contract extension after qualifying for the 2018 World Cup, it was only extended until July 2020, which is right in the middle of qualifiers for the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon. That is not normal and it is only the federation that can explain the reason for this.”

“According to the provisions of my current contract with Nigeria, I am free, from January 1st 2020, to enter into a pre-contract agreement with any club or national team, to start work with them on the first of July 2020. That is my right,” Rohr said.

“After the AFCON in Egypt, I was approached by some national teams but I made it clear that I was still under contract with Nigeria and was happy to continue with my work here.”

“I will wait for my conversation with the President of the Nigeria Football Federation in January, when he says that we shall arrange a time to sit down and talk. We shall see what happens.”

“While I have had a good time with my players and staff over the last three years, I have to say that relations with the administration have not been very easy, especially when it comes to the payment of my wages and that of the bonuses and allowances of my players and staff. There needs to be a lot more respect in this regard,” he said.

According to the former Girondins Bordeaux defender and manager, who coached the national teams of Niger, Gabon and Burkina Faso, before joining Nigeria in 2016, Rohr claims that he is owed close to $100,000 in bonuses and allowances by the NFF.

Jean-Jacques Bertrand, who served as the lawyer of Manchester United legend Eric Cantona, has been negotiating with the NFF on Rohr’s behalf to get the arrears paid.

“I preferred to get Jean-Jacques involved because it got to a stage that I didn’t want to be speaking to the federation about money all the time. It got tiring… I wanted to take my mind away from money and simply focus on my job and let him deal with the issues off the field,” Rohr said.

Nigeria, under Rohr, won a bronze medal at the last Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt and have made a strong start in the 2021 AFCON qualifying campaign, winning their first two matches against Benin Republic and Lesotho.

“We have made a very strong start to the campaign and we hope to continue with that when the qualification series continues in August. Hopefully, I will still be here by this time,” Rohr laughs.

NFF sha. Just pay a man for his labour. It shouldn't be too much to ask na

Amadaz:
you sound like a fool, you go hear word day wey you go encounter this bad guys.

My statement was an attempt to douse tension by lightening the mood but you obviously will insult. Its in your DNA. Continue

You guys should just tell us to stay in our houses then

It is God that protects. Being overly wary doesn't help anyone

AdorableJosh:
Lmaoo you sound angry, actually it's not mediocre in anyway, just jump and pass.

I am not angry but the series makes no sense. Simple

TheKingIsHere:
The latest watchmen episode is so good and intriguing.

So many dark secrets that the US government did and hid.

It also exposes how the media misinterpretes a lot of things by giving accolades to those that don't because of media bias.

If you ain't watching this series, better do so now.

Started with episode 1 and so far, it is a big pile of horseshit

So disjointed and boring. Wonder why many enjoy watching mediocrity

I apologize for touring Kennedy Boboye as a potl CHAN eagles coach. Never new he was an assistant carpenter to the main carpenter himself (Imams)

jihday:
I don't care about Pinnick, I think he has been poor as FA chairman, but the truth is if Nigeria had fail to beat Lesotho even Rhor won't give the excuse of lack of friendly. Did Togo even play any friendly? Truth is Imama is a poor coach it's not even up for debate

Soon, I will release a carpentry list for local coaches. I'll try to be comprehensive about it. Imams is a respected coaching carpenter

Chidonsky:
that yemi ella was very good coach.

He carried 30+ yr old players to an U-17 tourney
