Current/Past Eagles as Managers...See Ndidi

Subzero047:
The thing is, Iwobi does not have the mindset of a professional footballer, he doesn't train, he has a poor cardio, he is more interested in being a celebrity than being a footballer

Carlo Ancelotti prefers a 4-4-2 formation and I'm struggling to see where he would fit in the new Everton side

solonnachi:
They want to finish Rohr with responsibilities. NFF are just being lazy to work. Who is suppose to revive our league and reorganize our youth teams? Is it Rohr? I will not be surprised if they add U17 Flamingos, U20 Falconets and Super Falcons to his job. This was the reason why he must reside in Nigeria.

I still wonder how taiwo international career ended so son

Dude stop getting called 8 years ago when he was 27

He was snubbed during his good time with qpr dynamo Kiev and Bursaspor ,we don’t even have better options on that left back ,as far as I am concerned elderson is not even on the level of Taiwo then

Lol Ozil is past his prime so I doubt it.

NFF grooming Yobo as Super Eagles future coach, says Pinnick
Nigeria Football Federation President, Amaju Pinnick has disclosed that the federation appointed Joseph Yobo as assistant coach of the Eagles to prepare for a future role of the team’s manager.

Pinnick noted at the weekend that the leadership role displayed by Yobo when he was the captain of the Eagles motivated the NFF to appoint him as a member of the team’s technical crew.

He maintained that Yobo’s appointment would contribute to the development of the Eagles, as the team look ahead to qualify for the 2021 African Cup of Nations and the 2022 World Cup.

“When Yobo was captain of the Super Eagles before he retired, I saw inborn leadership character in him. His charisma and the way he carried other players in the team was exceptional.
“Yobo is a born leader. This is why the federation decided to appoint him as one of the assistants in Super Eagles team.

“We are looking up to Yobo to manage the Super Eagles in future and being part of the team’s technical crew will give him that opportunity to coach the Super Eagles in the nearest future.

“The Late Stephen Keshi was also an exceptional leader when he was the captain of the Super Eagles. He later grew in the coaching job to handle the Super Eagles. Yobo needs to be encouraged.

“This is not the first time a Nigerian retired player would be given this type of opportunity. Yobo’s presence in the Eagles will help the team,” he said.

On Yobo’s lack of the required certificate for the job, Pinnick clarified that “apart from the first assistant in the national team, other coaches that are yet to get coaching licence are allowed to be in the team’s technical set up according to the rules. So, Yobo’s appointment is on track.”

The president also revealed that the federation was working round the clock to raise funds for the Super Eagles’ campaign to qualify for the AFCON and World Cup when hostilities resume after the COVID-19 lockdown.

Keshi could have been a party to it but it goes far above him, I think it's like a syndicate.

barackodam:
When we won 2013 AFCON, has anyone made mention of any names involved in the logistics?

Keshi won us AFCON. Shikena.

Now, it's a matter of bribe, you're asking not to exonerate anyone.

Keshi took all the glory for the AFCON triumph, no one talks about his staff or anything. So, if indictment is coming, na only Keshi we need to know

Subzero047:
Iwobi has not had a competitor in the GWG so you can't say his playing every match is love

Now Ejaria is in the picture let us see whether Rohr truly loves Iwobi or a case of playing what you have

Subzero047:
With the coming year and Ejaria, Iwobi is not a guaranteed starter and Jamilu Collins position is not safe

Only Ekong, Osimhen and Ndidi are SE guaranteed starters

Subzero047:
Allegedly Imoh Ezekiel was asked to pay $10,000 to join the 2014 world cup squad

Nff cannot probe Nff
So na to dey look remain.


We don't need to think this is an attack on the integrity of NFF.


These allegations means the SE is a Merc Team!!!!


And with funny names here and there, i cant but agree....



Our kinda society don't have security for people that talk like this and that's why common sense plays out here. Before dem use higher power do person strong thing.


Infact, we've been mentioning only Keshi


Pls let's add the names of those involved in the WC logistics. They must all be a party to this. No exonerating abeg.

Joebie:
Guy ive been saying the same thing here. It’s on record. Never suggested otherwise.

elyte89:
@basco and @charles....na una two correct.. Its okay

barackodam:
Abeg, davep and anybody, who's this flavor nabania y'all talking about.

I can't unravel the player. Wetin be im name gan gan?

andrewbaba44:
You have a point

Ndidi osimhen and chuks are destined for big teams

Let me still observe others sha

Sorry to say Siasa fall my hand, itself he hand no clean.

But then which person hand clean for NFA.

BascoVanVeli:
so u rather the allegation stay as hearsay? Without a name the allegation is simply a rumor. U act like the said stakeholders are members of the mafia....

Subzero047:
It could be a great move, Chukwueze needs a team built around him due to his maverick nature of play and he doesn't have that luxury at Villarreal

A youth-centric team built around Chukwueze could unleash the beast in him

Joebie:
Let me correct that Ndidi will face fierce competition from Billing if the latter switches allegiance as rumors are suggesting. Ndidi does not deserve an untouchable status in SE yet. But let’s see Billing play first for SE.

Adelakun Was The One Doing All The Job Looking For Players' - Nigeria Great Odegbami Blasts Rohr


In a no-holds-barred interview with Nigerian television station Plus TV Africa monitored by allnigeriasoccer.com, legendary Nigeria winger Segun Odegbami strongly criticized the decision of the Nigeria Football Federation to give a new contract to Gernot Rohr.

The Franco-German football tactician is on the verge of inking a new deal with the NFF amidst all the conditions laid out in the proposed deal, including living in Nigeria to monitor potential Super Eagles players in the domestic championship and being paid in the local currency.

"I don't know about the plot to send him packing, I have been an advocate of the end of foreign coaches in Nigerian football and I stand by that," said Odegbami.

"It is very insensitive of people at this time in our history considering where we are now with the coronavirus opening our eyes to the new realities of the world for us to continue to go back to something that has failed us."

The highlight of Odegbami's interview was when he revealed that English-based scout of Nigerian descent, Tunde Adelakun was the one doing most of the job assigned to Rohr.

Adelakun has often been sighted at English Premier League match venues monitoring players of Nigerian descent with a view to a call-up to the national team.

"Gernot Rohr didn't succeed, he took all that money, didn't spend his time in this country.

"A black young Nigerian man, Tunde Adelakun was the one doing all the job, combing the whole of Europe to look for players and all Gernot Rohr was doing was spending few days to assemble players and play matches.

"Besides that his scoreline is not anything that Nigerians have not done before so we must put an end to this slavery and colonial mentality," Odegbami added.

The 1980 Africa Cup of Nations winner concluded by saying that an indigenous coach should be in charge of the Super Eagles

"Nigerians at this point have to look inwards, everything around us shows that these people out there don't love us so they can't love our country more than us.

"We have Nigerians who can do the job, they have always done the job and they can still do the job.

"Gernot Rohr, we have no business discussing with him, his contract expires in June, he should just go quietly."

Winning the champions league is not easy

But I can assure you that if Nigerian players start playing for clubs like ,Madrid ,Barcelona ,Juventus ,ATM,Liverpool ,mancity ,psg ,Bayern ,Dortmund,chelsea then it won’t be long before you see them winning the champions league just as Salah and mane

A Nigeria player might not win the champions league in the next 5 years if they don’t play for those club I mentioned

komekn:
In the context of Nigeria unfortunately irrespective of the endeavour, you can never rule out the overriding pecuniary self interest.

The way of Egunje.

These are the things that have discouraged a number of Nigerian origin players abroad that have been approached the wrong way.

Hopefully, with Yobo a lot that will now STOP.

Blueelf:
This is just unnecessary waste of data.

Everyone knows its Samuel Eto'o
