timay1: To be fair, I can count on one hand up to 3 to 5 local coaches better than Rohr and those substandard foreign coaches we usually hire. Their problem is that they always lack sufficient backing from the NFF,as well as the fact that they sometimes work against themselves by calling up low quality players ahead of better ones because of peanuts they'll get from players agents, thereby hampering themselves in the process. I don't know if it's village people dey cause am.
if these guys can give themselves brains and reduce their corruption small, we won't need to hire any washed up white coach for the next decade.
My problem with most of these coaches is the packing the bus style they adopt to a fault. The Super Falcons are also now suffering thesame problem. It works for European teams and the USA but not for our national teams. I believe only Dutch coaches (who know what they are doing) can do well in Nigeria ( because of the similarity in style). Coaches like Mourinho for instance, even during his prime, would have struggled to achieve great results from the beginning with the super eagles.
Just40 this is confusing o, where do these people visit or live in Ghana that they keep complaining about power outages? probably not Accra. Just watch the first 3 minutes of this video. They complain about power outages in Ghana as if they were talking about Nigeria. For Nigeria, everyone knows generator is common, but the white lady here says they also needed the generators for Ghana. What are your thoughts on this? or probably she's speaking of a few power outages in some areas.
Ennyjay69: This is the possible combination of the 3rd placed teams which will decide who we will face
I think if Cameroon beats capeverde convincingly, then we would face Malawi. However, with good preparation I think Nigeria need not fear Ivory Coast or Algeria.
68816419: Mad man, I hope you are not referring the same tiny Mombasa I know in and out, mazze, I swear to God Kaduna and Kano are far far more developed than Mombasa comparing Nairobi with Abuja is like comparing Kenyatta with Bill Gate , u need to know that development is not about developing just one section of a state/county but the whole of the states/counties at the same time, and this what what most Kenya's cities lacks. Old Mombasa CBD and just very few residential areas can only be tagged "averagely developed" according to Nigeria standard or even world standard. You also need to know that Nigerians cities development spreads across all areas and not just at around the CBDs , take Kaduna for instance, the Kaduna town (capital of Kaduna),Zaria(50k from Kaduna) and Kafancha( 200km+ from Kaduna) are all far more developed than Mombasa are madly developing, 35,23,23 roads are currently been dualizalised in kaduna , Zaria, and Kafancha respectively and massive projects will be commissioned by the president on 20th this month , such styles of development applies to most states in Nigeria. Nigeria is indeed the most developed Africa Nation outside the already white developed SA.(cape Town, joburg, Durban..)
Hmm maybe we can also add Namibia and Morocco to the mix. Egypt is coming up as well. From my assessment, Kenya is taking some steps but the Kenyans on this thread exaggerate a lot and those steps are baby steps if the development is not spreading to most parts of the country and only concentrated on certain areas.
M7even: Im currently rewatching the highlights of yesterday's game. The commentator said something really baffling that further supports safari girl position on the Nigerian Eagles ofthe 90s as the most solid team ever. Yesterday's game was the first time Nigeria would score two goal at the first half in AFCON since 92 when Yekini scored two first half goals against Kenya. I mean for all the good soccer we hype the 90s team on, they didn't score two goals easily when opponents were dummies in soccer unlike today's football that has weaker teams of the 90s catching up fast with the continental giants
Yeah you are right, in terms of results for the super eagles, I don't see much difference between the team of the 90's and the team of our beloved Stephen Keshi in 2013/2014. They achieved thesame results. I think the only difference is that we had more quality players like Rashidi Yekini and Finidi George especially who were already known around the world by their club performances. When I meet certain people from various countries, the only thing they know about Nigeria till this day are Amokachi, Yekini, Okocha . So yes, that team I think gained world recognition and should have achieved more.
Eguavoen said Nwakali didn't really do badly, when asked about Nwakali's performance in his post match interview. I think Nwakali was told to just come on to control the game and maintain possession for the team.
Shma: You don't reason. if you had a brain, you'll not be doing this nonsense. @GeneralDae has just whispered the truth in your ears by showing you how stupid you are trying to play with dirty areas.
The 'Ajangul tatterdemalion' activated. lets see between: the biggest oil producer and the 70% inarable & mineral deficient country, which is the best.
For starters, forget about the primitive behavior going on here. Let's focus on the background.
Honestly you lost me there. Dunno what you're on about this time. By the way, is it true that aside Nairobi and a few places in Mombasa, you don't have paved roads in Kenya? Is it also true that Kenya has only 50% of her population with access to electricity?
ednut1: there are over 300m people in usa. These so called events are usually isolated cases . And majority of people there have not experienced these things. Grow up
If I tell you that majority of Nigerians (even Northern Nigerians) have not experienced kidnapping and BokoHaram, would that mean anything to you? Note that Nigeria is also said to be a country of 206 million people. I'm not saying U.S is bad though or that people should stay in Nigeria and not relocate. I'm just questioning your logic here for fun.
PetroDolla2020: stop deceiving yourself, huh? are you aware that 90 percent of Nigerians survive on less than a dollar per day? Tell me, what is salary of a federal employee in Nigeria today? i was shocked to know that about 70 percent of federal employees are paid less than 100,000 naira per month. In Ghana, the least paid government employee is paid more than double that.
Okay, Nigeria is doing great,huh? But let me ask you these questions? 1. why are people being killed in nigeria and so much violence if indeed the country is doing well? 2. why are millions of Nigerians now running to Ghana, a country they rubbished and continue to rubbish being 'poor"? [s][/s]
are you aware that 90 percent of Nigerians survive on less than a dollar per day?
Can you show me where you got this from? Or its' from your ass as usual.
why are people being killed in nigeria and so much violence if indeed the country is doing well?
Nigeria is not doing well in that aspect.
why are millions of Nigerians now running to Ghana, a country they rubbished and continue to rubbish being 'poor"?
This is another Hogwash. Why are Indians everywhere? Nigerians are even more in Cameroon than Ghana, and they are also in Gambia, Togo, Liberia, etc. Liberians are not running from their country like Ghanians who are all over Hamburg in Germany, and also all over Nigeria. Does that make Liberia more developed than Ghana?
vankelvin: Our sincere apologies on behalf of our Brother.
He was actually driving home a point to Ghanaians.. You mis-understood him but *it's okay*..
Cameroon is a beautiful place with beautiful people... I'm actually impressed with your stadiums.... You guys have done well
But Just40 said Ghana has stadiums which are as beautiful. I don't believe either Ghana or Nigeria has comparable stadiums to what I saw in Cameroon. But it is expected, they've been building that stadium and preparing for years to host the tournament at all cost.
PetroDolla2020: what have you been smoking? Must be pawpaw leaves,huh? By the way, who told you Nigeria is a rich country? don't ever say that again Nigeria is NOT a rich country, and the tragedy of Nigeria is that it is becoming poorer and poorer each passing year.
By the way, how do you measure how rich a country is? Yes, in your opinion, what are the indicators or factors that define a rich country and a poor country? I hope yo won't come tell me it is determined by how many posh cars you find on the streets or how tall the gele of their women are or how people throw lavish parties and block roads
as I stated, the wealth of a country is measured about how well the people of the country are doing. Key indicators like life expectancy, personal security, access to water, electricity, jobs, quality education, quality health care etc etc.
go the UN Human Development Index, which provides ranking of countries around the world. You will weep to see how lowly Nigeria is rated
stop deceiving yourself that Nigeria is a "rich" country by the way, nigeria is the poverty capital of the world. Ghana, with its $1 GDP attracts more FDI than nigeria, chai
Nigerians in Ghana are doing well? who told you? most of them are pr0stitutes and armed robbers Ghana's jails are overflowing with your nigerian brothers and sister
Nigerians are doing well in Ghana, but cannot do well in Nigeria? and their country is now a shambolic shiithole oh dear oh dear
[s][/s]
They say Nigeria has 206 million people, and out of that, approximately 100 million live in poverty according to them. Even if that is true for the sake of argument, that would still leave us with 106 million Nigerians who don't live in poverty. That is already more than 3 times the size of Ghana. Why do you choose to ignore the 106 million people but focus on the other half?
nwadikeokey11: Honestly I'm not happy the way things are in Nigeria, because by both human and natural resources only a few countries of Europe, America and Asia should be more developed and better than Nigeria and no African country, not even South Africa or Egypt should come close, let alone Ghana, but for rogues who calls themselves politicians Ghanians now brags and insults Nigeria and Nigerians any how. I will never talk down on Ghana but the truth is, if relocating from Nigeria to go live in another country means that i have to move to Ghana i will rather move from Lagos where i currently reside to my village, reason been that i had visited Accra Ghana in 2017 and to be very honest i couldn't believe that that was the over hyped capital of Ghana because there was absolutely nothing, not even one thing that impressed me about it. Well i wouldn't know, perhaps that could be because i had bin to several developed cities of the world, including some capitals in Africa and i must earnestly state here that Accra was the least developed of all. Nigeria may be a shithole but then it can never be in the same league with Ghana. You have said it here many times how Nigerians are many in your Ghana but are you aware that your citizens are far more in Nigeria than Nigerians in your country? I love and respect Ghanians and citizens of other countries but this boastful habits of Ghanians trying to compare or compete with Nigeria and Nigerians is so insulting to say the least.
Tell them o, dem nor know say Ghanians full PortHarcourt, Deltastate, Lagos, and other places. Just that they are usually quiet and low key. Anyway concerning your visit to Accra in 2017, do you think the capital may have improved under their new president? Maybe the man is performing wonders making Ghana probably better than it was in 2017.
PetroDolla2020: you are a big disaapointment to your family, yourself and your country.
Tell me, is English your first language? If English is not your first language, then shut up! Don't know why nigerians cant stop disgracing themselves and talking trash all the time
[s][/s]
But you were the one who brought up English here. Abi your brain don dey pain you?
PetroDolla2020: are all schools in nigeria federal colleges?
The problem with Nigerian is that they don't want to accept reality. they will lies to themselves, as if so doing will make things better. and yet you see your country going down and down. wise up. shine your eyes
no wonder some university graduates in your country can't speak or write good English
See who is talking, pot calling Kettle black . Do Ghanaians even speak English? You speak Twi, so what does English have to do with what we are saying?
PetroDolla2020: oh please! You really believe the crap you wrote?
Well, obviously I know more about Nigeria than you,huh? the federal govt started a pilot in some states for feeding students, but as usual the whole project was swallowed by corruption
The nigerian government has never provided free books or free uniforms. stop spreading lies,huh?
You know more about Nigeria than me but you don't know that education is free in Government schools? Ever heard of Federal Government College and schools like that?
You know that Nigeria is also about her states and state Governments (with their own budgets for education, health, etc) as well and not just the Federal Government right? If that is the case why compare Nigeria to Ghana?
PetroDolla2020: It’s not true. I know some Nigerians in public schools in Nigeria who pay fees.
In any case, Ghana also provides free food, free uniforms, free books
Nigerian Government also provide all these things. Buhari's Government even started feeding the children as well (don't know if they've stopped because they were criticized for it). If you don't believe me, search it out yourself.
PetroDolla2020: In Ghana, education is free from primary to university. On top of that, students are fed and clothed by the Ghana government. They even get free books.
Are yiu aware 15 million nigerian children are out of school, according to UNICEF, and roaming the streets?
Education is also free in Nigeria in Government schools as far as I know. My sister went to free Government school and I know many also who did and this has been on for decades, so I don't know why 15 million children would be out of school.
oilmane: When compared to Nigeria it is a thousand times better, they inform the public via the electronic media before they switch off the light, is when they want to do maintenance. They go for 3-4 without light going off so to me it is very good
Wow I think Nigeria just need massive investment in Solar Panels where it becomes affordable and in excess.
oilmane: Ghana is good when it comes to electricity, security is good depending on where you live and that is all, most Ghanian dislike Nigerians with passion.
Is electricity constant everywhere? Because I still see few interviews of visitors (once in a while) who complain about electricity. So I'm confused. Almost everyone says there is constant electricity everywhere but some say they need to improve on electricity.
It is ONLY in EPL, LA Liga, Serie A and other European leagues dat you see entertaining football.
In International Cup Competitions football, many teams are conversatives in dier play! E.g. Italy. In World cup matches, Many teams play cautious, boring football..
