What do u guys Think about Jorgen Klinsman as the technical coach of the Super EAGLES ?


He made history with the US team at the world cup .

they played with so much energy .



just thinking that Rohr combination with this guy can give us the world cup if Nff think in this direction .... we have got the talents only need to harness them .


to me ROHR need a more technical assistant that understood the scientific aspect of the game ... its not about parking the buss when its not necessary ....this attitude has cost us in the past

Klinsmann can never work as Rohr's assistant neither can he wvn coach the Super Eagles because he can't even navigate the bedlam that is NFF

from the beginning, I had always known iheanacho was gonna be a big issue..... Even from the u17 I still do not know his preffpref position, is it a 10? A 8 or 9....

At Man city he scored a couple of goals, and I was surprised he was used as a 9, but even my mother would score a couple of goals if she was playing a striker for Guardiola.... He is not the fastest, nor has the most skill, nor very clinical, osihmen on the contrary is a lot more of a striker than him... Infact I dont see any striker in Europe in "osihmen" age range that is better than him.... Maybe halland Sha, but some people here will day they are on par.... So mention any new player from 19-22 better than osihmen( both stat and everything)....

I'm not arguing that Osimhen isn't a head above shoulders compared to strikers in his age range in Europe. I just want him not to let the accolades get to his head. That's all

Kbs468:
Ok Thats a good one. I never knew he was part the Team though untill now.

Thanks for the info. It should be him then because Sani Emmanuel and Onazi are pure street boys

Exactly.

Starboytwo:
that was why I was confident of him coming to the EPL.... As long as osihmen get quality service be it naija league, Spanish, italian or epl, the boy would finish..... I have a very high target for him.... It's not easy to be the heir to yekini...

I agree with you that Osimhen is a good finisher and has (or is still developing) all the qualities of a good target man. However, I would lobe for him to remain humble and keep on working hard while shunning distractions. I won't want him going the way if Isaac success, KC Nacho and Nwakali. We have lost too many young stars to indiscipline.

Kbs468:
Onazi I suppose but not really because what I could only recall is his supperlative performance in the world cup along side the highest goal scorer - Shehu Sani Emmanuel (Where is he now? Only God knows) as the players from TB Joshua's My People FC football club of Lagos.

Somehow somehow, there was joy and celebration at the synagogue for their feet.

IHEANACHO was as described by Safarigirl above

OMERUO? I dont think he made it to U 17 level too

KAYODE? I dont even know anything about him

Oga, Omeruo was in the U-17 team that lost to Switzerland in the final in Lagos. That team had Ramon Azeez, Sani Emmanuel and Stanley Okoro (aka Little Messi ).

First of all football administration in Nigeria is intrinsically POLITICAL.

It mirrors what happens in our elections when it comes to selection of the NFF President. It's just on a small-scale that's all.

There is money to be made and participanys want that money. THATS THE MOTIVATION and has been for donkey years.

Just like in our society l don't think there has ever been a free and fair elections. What we have is degrees of rigging.

So in the course of trying to get to office you sell your soul to the devil and murder all your convictions of righteousness in the process.

Honest trustworthy people may attempt but they will never succeed. IMO

The reality is that the people of a nation reflect it's leadership. We get what we deserve we are too ready to sell our birthright for a pot of porridge.

Amaju may do a few things right like all our politicians do but different degrees. But will fill.thuer very deep pockets in the process.

And yes l know Amaju well.

I don't want to believe that you can't get there without dishonesty. I still want to believe that you can achieve things in Nigeria with true honesty and dedication

Eartquake1:
Hmm you are too idealistic

There is no way you can make it to the top of the administrative ladder in Nigeria without 'setting' some people

We just pray that the person on top has the interest of Nigerian football at heart and Pinnick is exactly that

Do you mean that Pinnick has the interest of Naija football at heart?

Cc Icon4s, andrewbaba44, thesupernerd, tbaba1234, komekn, forgiveness, Joebie, Odunayaw, chriskels etc

What do you guys think?

Eartquake1:
What are you saying?

What I'm saying is that there are people with the interest of Naija football at heart without financial incentive who are active at the local govt level and grassroots. It won't be bad to look for someone like that. After all, Joseph was brought from prison to help guide a Nation through impending famine

edi287:
Firmino was a Rodgers signing.

Are you sure?

Well, you may be right

Eartquake1:
If Pinnick and NFF is not helping our football who is?

I don't want to belief that we don't have abGod fearing administrator in the whole country even if its to lift him from a grassroot local government sport admin. That's the truth bro.....there are people but evil doesn't want good. But light will still shine and darkness would be chased away

phamous08:
D problem.is dat will dey wanna play against us

Why not.

Considering our performance against Ukraine (they top their table for Euro 2020 Qualif) and Brazil (Copa America champ), all teams would. Trust me....unless they ate cowards and are scared we may upset them

jieta:
you quoted the wrong person, check well.

Okay

jieta:
please when is the draw.

Yea, you're right. My mistake

jihday:
We can't, we'll be in pot 1

Okay, that's true. My bad

Danielnino00:
Erling Haaland: "The Champions League anthem is my alarm tone. I wake up to it everyday. It's the last song I'll get tired of."

And Manchester United fans really think he's going to come to them and change his alarm tone to Europa League's anthem.

You're a mad man bro

jieta:
Well! I believe these is how you understand the FIFA ranking to be and you are not the only one. When we defeated Argentina everybody was happy and we where hoping that we will move up ward, of course we did move up ward but not as we expected some people where kind of been inquisitive that's when icon4 brought up this same analogy with a formular which FIFA use. You can check the website if the formular is still there because the Last time i did it was still there.


But my concern is that these systems don't apply to big teams when there play smaller teams. When we participated in the last AFCON we played seven matches won five lose two if you do the maths our point would have been 9 taking consideration of the two lost but at the end of the tournament we gain more than twenty points so is kind of confusing

Yes ooo my brother.

FIFA should be more open to the general public how they calculate their points and determine their rankings

ILLICITblood:
Firmino??


Thought that was Rodgers

No

seankafor:
oga pinnick no dey go anywhere.
You can take that to the bank

How sure are you?

If FIFA insists, then Naija may have no choice unless we want to be banned from FIFA sporting activities......I think its possible though. Those guys haven't really helped our football (NFF)

seankafor:
babayaro and his cohorts can shove the fraud case and evidence over their black asses

Guy calm down.

Its something that we should all tune in to if true.

It affects Naija football and I hope those involved get what's coming to them. If Pinnick will be sacked as a result, then I hope it happens like that

Kbs468:
Okay but certainly not a NIGERIAN either because for my little stay in here already, Gustav85 has been more or less a Troll to the SUPER EAGLES undoubtedly

You can't be too sure.

Afobear is also a known troll yet he is a proper Igbo guy

Curtisaxel7:
.....Because he is the only no.10 we have...

Aribo is also a 10. Like I said earlier we need reinforcements for every area of this team

ChrisKels:
Compare this to our 2019 stats where we lost to the likes of Madagascar

Some carpenters were responsible for our result.

Something tells me that we may be grouped with Algeria/Tunisia again for the World cup qualifiers

charlesemeka85:
The only player that I think will reach that milestone if he continues with his current form is oshimeh. He is just 21 and can still have up to 10 more years in the team if he remains in top shape.

I once thought nacho will achieve that but it seem impossible for now

That's why Osimhen needs to keep his head down and shut out all the hype from the media and fans alike. Also stay off Naija women or get married if he can't hold himself

charlesemeka85:
liverpool owners don't know anything but got it right by hiring kloop and allowing him to make decisions when it comes to players recruitment.

kloop single handedly transformed liverpool and made the right choices when bringing in players.

he signed robertson from hull

salah from roma when no big team were willing to have him after flopping at chelsea.

brought in matip and firmino from germany on a cheaper price when compared to today's market

graduated and gave arnaut a chance in the first team

brought in mane for a decent price from southampton.

brought in ox from arsenal on a good price

the only player that cost him much was van dijk and currently they are reaping the fruits

liverpool and kloop got their recruitment right for the past 2 seasons which is the main reason the team is among the best in europe currently

Your head dey there this morning bro. Ride on Jo.

I think that is also the issue with Chelsea for now because i don't think Chelsea's owner would have allowed another coach use young players in the first team. He believed in signing already established players but its like lampard insisted on developing young talents and gave the likes of Tammy, Hudson odoi etc a chance and now they are reaping the benefits

charlesemeka85:
Belgian First Division A club KV Oostende inform via their official website that they have re-signed Nigeria international Joseph Akpala for the remainder of the 2019-2020 season with an option for next season.

The experienced striker has returned to KV Oostende following his release by Saudi Pro League side Al-Faisaly in February 2019.

Akpala racked up 97 appearances for KV Oostende in his earlier spell with the club from 2015 to 2018, scoring 20 goals and had six assists to his name.

A product of Bendel Insurance, he lists Sporting Charleroi, Club Brugge, Werder Bremen and Kardemir Karabukspor among his former clubs.

A division lower, KVC Westerlo have confirmed that they have ended their collaboration with retired Nigeria international Emmanuel Emenike.

The Belgian First Division B team explained that they mutually agreed to part ways with the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations top scorer because he could not be brought to the level that both parties had intended.

In five outings for KVC Westerlo in the league, Emenike failed to register his name on the scoresheet.

Chai, one if the visiting professors in the Faculty of Carpentry. How could I have forgotten

Eartquake1:
How can one person be as tall as strong and as fast as Haarland

That guy is a specimen, I can't remember another person in football who has all that attributes

I think a younger ibrahimovic

chucs:
For me, I would say that the Vardy = Kelechi analogy is not the right example. KC lost form and has since dropped down the pecking orders and Vardy has ever been in hot form.

For me, I would like Osimhen to turn up for Beyern. I think he will do well and have a better chance to become a regular if he continues working hard.

Just like someone also stated earlier, I think Italian league fits him. There are lots of technically sound teams that play great football over there. He should run far away from England to avoid his career stalling.

I believe so too

TheSuperNerd:
Alexander "The Great" Iwobi: Mr Available


Only Alex Iwobi featured in all 14 games played by the Super Eagles in 2019.

Naija Boy!!!

We really need reinforcements for this guys....burnout is real

edi287:
Talented but don't push it...

Exactly bro

charlesemeka85:
i am referring to the nearest future not now

Okay, now I understand...

charlesemeka85:
you lie, bayern will feature him in games consistently if he proves himself in the team. they are searching for a worthy replacement for their aging polish hit man but are yet to be linked with oshimeh. it seem they are going for leipzig's timo werner.

the only team linked with oshimeh currently is newcastle united

Bros, as long as Lewandowski is on top form, Osimhen would be limited to cup matches and a few league starts...no matter his form.

That's the situation with KC and Vardy (who is also aging but is currently red hot)

charlesemeka85:
what do you mean by that? jose love strikers that have good work rate,big,fast,aggressive and clinical in from of goal and oshimeh possess this qualities.

jose go for serious minded players with no nonsense approach to games which are the reasons i am convinced that he will appreciate having oshimeh and ndidi in his team.

oshimeh has the same attributes with strikers the Portuguese gaffer have had in the past, the likes of zlatan,eto,milito,lukaku,drogba and costa hwere unplayable in jose's teams

Yes I get you and I am not saying that Osimhen won't be needed by Jose but Jose is too defensive minded and for now, we here agree that Osimhen should improve more as an attacker
