What a 🇳🇬partner in Midfield they were at the World Cup

Will Deborah Abiodun break this two pair in midfield at the Olympics?🫣
I love their pair. I doubt she would. All i just want is some chemistry with Echegini asap so that it will get even more dangerous for teams they face. We sabi defend. No lele. But how sleek is our attack right now?

Anyway. Like i said earlier, i don prepare for a 2nd miss if that's the long term plan. If they want to use him for just afcon and tournament proper, and then bring up foreign for WC, na dem sabi.

Another person out of active duty is their top recommendation? (even if i like him more than many local coaches)

Aw I wish deres a voice note on dis nairaland


Why majority preferred Sia Sia ahead of amunike on dis space is …this present squad is highly indiscipline and Dey need a personal who can correct dt and stand on what Dey want

Remember dis journalist know dis coaches personality (citing aw Sia Sia managed Mikel ins 2005, 2008 and 2018 or so
Coachie, Even Eguavoen na disciplinarian. These guys are having misplaced priorities as a football assoc. But as you said, i no dey the space but how to qualify should be prior. What if none of what they opine works? Is it because of discipline and Mikel we want to risk all of these? All from before?


These guys are Visionless even if they pretend they want to manage funds.

Lol, England have been using Foden wrongly imo sha.

Ystdy where they seemed to tactics abit and switch Foden to middle, he seemed come alive a bit but alas it was too late.

Anyways, Foden na epl best. There must look for ways to put him or for him to start and that's why I'm suggesting him. No how an Epl best player should be a bench player
That's the only thing making him be in that XI right now, I won't lie. He needs to justify it. I dunno if it is lack of fear factor. Cos all the times he got the ball nothing. Saka gets ball and 2 doubles up on him and yet he gets an assist. Anyhow e be sha.

Jodera:
Rice suffered ystdy and he really tried. He stopped so many threatening attacks either by interception or tackles. But e come reach time for 2nd half Dem come dribble him life. Bellingham too tried defensively and gave his all but at some point, he started being overconfident and start playing "cruise" game which hurt England.
Arnold own na to deh throw pass. Aside the tackle which led to Walker chance(that the latter missed), he was almost just anon throughout.

Rice, Bellingham, Foden is the real deal in midfield. Foden should be allowed to Roam.

Anyways Sha na first match and it's good they won it. No cause for alarm yet from my ends
You fall my hand adding that Foden. TAA na like robot with a very short program installed. Pass and look. Nothing else. But he's more likely to have his moments than Foden imo. If na Jude they wan rely on sha, wahala dey. I have 6teams that can neutralize him in KO stages and hurt England. Na 1st match as you said sha. But i won't use Slovenia to think they've arrived either.

The good thing is that he has a great MD in Amobi (who I think should be our next NFF president if we know what we are doing). They'll probably beef up the squad and I expect them to do well at the continent.

The elective process into State Federations which eventually make up the leadership of the NFF mirrors the one of the country's polity. The most clueless and incompetent rise to the top to vie for positions.

I think as a matter of urgency all genuine lovers of Nigerian football and its stakeholders need to seriously find ways of getting elected enmasse into state FAs.

Not sure if they are provisions in the NFF act that are blocking people with ambition and high level skills from contesting as NFF president.
Those guys have done more work in a court than in the premises of their FAs. I can't forget the Davidson brouhaha that year. It was such a big mess. Money is around to chop from, but they just need to forego the archaic style. But, No!!

hope you saw the haram football they played in the second half that ensured the 3 points
That's one thing i like Mou for

Everyone has their primary tactic to ensure they win. Some are more superior than others. Some have more faith in their superiority than the rest. But nothing is as sweet as being the team to CANCEL all of that and progress over these far superior/tactical teams. Oyo for who wan dey complain when a superior team gets booted out. That's football!!!
Nobody wants to care about Haram football until it wins them something at the expense of the better team. Things may change later but one has to do what they have to do to get on top.

Italy and England that year are good exams until they met in final.

Jodera wan make England carry euro cheesy grin it's good shaa. But na Germany and France be my team. England should try and go far so Bellingham can have a better chance at balon d'or aside from that, make dem just come home after quarter finals cool cool. But wait how una go want 70m for kiwior??, Even if I'm a coach I can't go for anything over 40m for him. But that Author Melo swap isn't even mathing, I don't think Arsenal will even consider the deal at all.
England suppose go far. But Southgate is making Jude his focal. He better redirect to Saka imo. He should do all to make him defend less cos that's one way Kane and Jude will enjoy themselves. I have nothing to say about Foden until i see him get a shot on target. Guy is average in setup. I even prefer the Chelsea duo in XI than him. I hope they don't miss Rashford. Cos that guy go get telepathic sync with Jude if he were here. But form.

Overall, Kudos to Guehi for such achievement. 1st Palace starter in Euros since 80s for England. Who snatches him up after, we'll see.

Anyways Sha, next matches dey, tho I no go watch Serbia. Na England be my team. I just hope Southgate catch sense and play Foden in his rightful position. Make him disband Arnold comot from there
I was thinking na Palmer or Gallagher go wear that 8. Only to see that Carpenter wey no sabi defend sotey e affect Saka game. Cos saka dropped deep like 1million times to help Walker and Arnold was nowhere near. Just imagine o! 😂😂😂😂😂
Rice work kon triple cos the guy was either losing the ball or watching instead of tackling. Smh.

England setup will be their undoing. They have personnel to go all the way. But if they continue to setup in such a way that the front 3 turn ghost for a large part of 90 mins, then oYO. Na Germany and Portugal be my sure bankers overall. England dey too but unconvincing for now.

I didn't know Fidelis when he was with MFM, but many people spoke highly of him. The first time I saw a team ot his play was when he was with Plateau United. I saw a Nigerian club side play beautiful football and was impressed. Didn't need more than one game to show how good of a coach he was. It then became puzzling how he's never got a chance to coach any of the national teams.

Fidelis Ilechukwu started I believe started his NPFL career with MFM and has spent just 8 years as coach in the top flight. In 8 years, he's got 2 teams to second place and continental competition and won the league now with Rangers. This is the profile of a coach who should at least manage the CHAN eagles. Hopefully he gets a club out of Nigeria in the near future where he can futher prove himself.
seriously. I hope he also begins to look out well for himself till he's a name even the nff can't ignore so easily. I know he'll want to do something in the CAFCL anyway so let's see sha. Rangers should be preparing to rep well on the continent and not mess up like the last team that were an eyesore sotey the biggest noise from them was an off pitch incident and not what they were doing on pitch.


When will CAF even change the CL format? It is time!!

He should be the next coach of the chan team. We dont even pick our best coaches and players from our league.
The next home based nations cup is not far away and nff should please try him out.
As a reminder our football badly misses siasia. All these not qualifying for Olympics won't happen if siasia was around

Also. Remo stars coaches and players should be patronised. Remo stars and beyond limits are doing something special. Nff needs to get going
Seriously. Having the best legs of local based players at his fingertips will be a thrilling thing to see. In this very league, like 5 of them are good tacticians with at least a philosophy that works. The rest dey use old school mode dey manage. But NFF don't want to see results that they won't benefit from backstage.


As for Siasia with Dream Eagles those years, i rem my uncle saying that one day we won't see a quality replacement for Siasia. Here we are, over 16years ago and we still can't smell Olympics with a siasia. Team that should have been another feeders team for Super Eagles teytey, with at least foreign borns also eager to play Olympics getting attracted too.

In the nearest future now, local managers with modern philosophy may not pass 4 in the whole Nigeria.
