About Madugu, I think they should retain him....
I admit he isn't that tactically sound, but somehow, he knows how to make adjustment... That was evident in his subs today and the changes to the lineup that beat Zambia...
Also, I noticed from the post/pre match interview, dressing room and training videos that he seem to have a good relationship with his players despite his habit of screaming at them on the touchline...
It's better he continues, except the NFF can hire a more competent coach.... Knowing the NFF, if they refuse to give him a contract, they will likely go for a grade J foreign coach and we will be back to square one

How did we all arrive at this "Madugu is not tactically sound" conclusion sef?
This man just won us the Afcon.. Something tactically sound Waldrum couldn't do

Is it the color of his skin?..

If I was madugu.. I'll remove one of Ayinde or Abiodun on 30 mins dot

Bring in Payne or Echegini.. What is the worst thing that can happen?
You're already two goals down!!

All I've been reading is complaint upon complaints... Who dey win? Wetin be scores?

u want mk dem kill soldiers hide d pictures I no even understand una 4 dis country na picture wey dem expose so d public can take note that the war against bandits whatever name una call dem can’t be won by the Nigeria military for now. Maybe it’s still business as usual

Now that you've seen the bodies and made your conclusions.. What are you going to do about it?
Sharing their dead bodies is disrespectful to them and their families.. How would you feel if you see your close relative or friend's mutilated body flying around social media, just so some people can get "informed"?

The headline "100 soldiers were killed yesterday" and a beautiful writeup glorifying the heroics acts of the bandits should be enough to make you happy.
The photos are not necessary

Who are the idiots that allow the photos of these soldiers to be taken and posted online?

For what purpose?
What the Bleep are those people at the defence headquarters doing

AerialMapper:
An organised manner means dealing with the corruption behind the subsidy and not the subsidey itself!

Everyone knows the subsidy claim was grossly inflated. The country was not consuming the daily amount of products quoted and this figure was the basis for the subsidy calculation. If this was tackled, then it would have dropped to payment drastically.

All Obi is saying is that you cannot remove the subsidy and float the naira at once thereby burdening the citizens! What Obi is saying is that other governments had programmes that they used the savings for. There was PTF and there was SURE P... this government has given more money to the states from the savings but this is clearly not working. Youve just made richer governors . Then a huge chunk has gone to a contract to the company of your bosom friend. Clearly, the savings were not for the benefit of the people but to coerce the governors for their support (which is working) and enrich cronies.

If Obi had been able to articulate his ideas this way... Twitter would be on a frenzy by now.
I put it to you, you'll make a far better president than Obi.
At the very least, you can clearly tell us what you think should have been done!
Obi could not!

komekn is having a feast

Shit happens
There's nothing happening today that has not happened before.
But the internet has empowered people to sensationalize everything... If person wife get miscarriage today, E go be Tinubu fault.

As far back as 2008, I wrote a particular NECO paper, exam commenced at 7pm (in Akure) ... Why? The paper leaked and they (NECO) had to do emergency reprint.
Is it ideal? No!
Should things be better? Certainly!

But make una dey calm down with this Tinubu this... Tinubu that

ADEGUNWA01:
Nonetity said the deji is not there obviously u don't even hglave knowledge of the nonsense u are saying.
The deji alake Awujale ooni alaafin owa ijesa Osemawe olowo orangun ila akarigbo are all first class and sole native authorities of their respective divisions during the British Era and none is Snr to another no time in history did the British ever rank any oba in yorubaland.
I'm ondo state the deji is number one followed by Osemawe and Olowo. Even Alake or Awujale will not open their mouth so say this gibberish u wrote here.
The deji is bigger than ur village oba.

I hope this era dissappears quickly... An era where people cannot hold down intellectual conversations without name calling, insults and viewing every disagreement as a personal attack.
You should make a decision to be different.

You should have countered my opinion with facts without thinking I'm attacking your town or putting down your king.. That way we can both learn.
Do better sir/ma.. Make a decision to be different.
Cheers to growth

Watching Ola Aina bully brighton from right back yesterday makes me want to meet Chelle and punch him in the face.

Why the fvck will you have that player and then you decide to move him to left back
Shey na village people?
God abeg

zuchyblink:
Due to our defence and midfield deficiency,3-5-2 remains our best formation.

We don't have midfield deficiencies..

It's the super eagles coaches for whatever reason year on year are refusing to play more than 2 midfielders at a time.
For whatever reason... that defies logic

It's annoying, we will be playing against players from Ashanti kotoko and our midfield will be overrun

I wish a journalist will ask the reason(s) for this anomaly someday

This Uyo stadium na bad luck abeg

Make we return to Abuja

That's that for the world cup.. We're out
Nor be say we wan go win am before sef
Abeg

2030 next

This midfield stands no chance!
Eh God abeg
Why we nor dey ever get coach wey value midfield game

minfelix:
is this it?

This one na suicide mission
4-1-5 formation

Midfield is non existent
Shey village people dem Don Jazz Chelle

lexyman:
anything short of 2goals for super eagles is a loss to me . Rwanda was lucky in the first leg

Abeg
Even if na half goal
Make 3 points sha complete

Amedino99:
people harping on that miss seem to forget that he still scored in that match after that action which still didn't help at all as we were bundled out of the tournament. Despite all his achievements his national team career was reduced to an inconsequential miss at the world stage. Crazy what sentiments can do.

That miss was not inconsequential, we needed just 3 points to qualify from the group.

Match ended in a draw.
If he had scored into that open goal, who knows... We would have gone ahead to get the much needed 3 points.

You people should stop rewriting history abeg

I will never forgive Yakubu for that miss... Attempting to rewrite the story only make us remember buried hurts... Nor dey do am

M7even:
He will start him against Bayern Munich in the CL

He has lost two matches without scoring a goal now.. Yet he refused to play Boniface..

That's not normal

Samueltemi337:
Schick impressed when Boniface was injured
Alonso can't just drop Schick for Boniface now that he is back from injury

He lost against Bayern 3-0
Boniface was an unused sub.
Lost today 2-0
Boniface was still left on the bench throughout.

These cannot be down to Schick's form... Something else is going on

Seems Boniface has played himself into Alonso's bad books, thus getting benched for non footballing reasons

He cannot become so bad that he can't get in the team 3 straight matches

Jose Mourinho is many things

But racist?
His track record says an emphatic No!

TheGoodJoe:
Definitely, he can't play the same pattern as he did at Barca because of different players and change of style.

The pressing system by teams is at a higher intensity as it was in the past. Also, teams have learnt to play and defend the against the system. So it can never be the same.

What is important is that most teams adopted different areas of the system. So no one can say something that is being adopted and adapted to is dying. It is actually growing.

Baba if something has to be "modified and adapted" before it can work, it means the original version is no longer effective a system that is no longer effective is at best "dying" of not dead you admit that the man who made it popular in the modern era has even had to "adapt".. , no one is arguing Guardiola's brilliance, but you see that tikitaka. E don cast! tikitaka. E don cast!

TheGoodJoe:
How? A lot of teams in England have adopted the philosophies of the system. Football has changed for ever. Joyfully your wish can't come true.

This life comes in cycles, no change lasts forever, we will always recycle systems and ideas.
Even Guardiola no longer play the tikitaka he played in his Barcelona days and early Man City years..

He now plays route one football sometimes just to get over the line.

Enyimba has to be investigated after that show of shame yesterday.

Looks like blatant match fixing to me.

The first and the third goal
C'mon those cannot be coincidence... The body language says it all

JohnBullMySon:
When you only work for factories this is the kind of mindset you cultivate. This trip won't cost him more than 30-50 million naira. How much is land or house in Abuja?

Lol..
I hear you....

So in your beautifully cultivated mindset, when a capitalist founder/CEO makes profit, the next thing he/she thinks of is not business expansion, diversification or consolidation but all expense paid lavish holidays for workers...

Oshey world Bank worker

Lol
Anyone that invests in this business is about to be scammed

No CEO lavishes company funds on staff in this manner;
It's either the company's income is not legit or he's planning to run the company down.

Either way... Investors should be wary of this type of CEO

Man City assessing Ola Aina for a possible Jan transfer

Aina should resist the urge!
Pep has never trusted a black African
Never!
Just look at Yaya Toure

MetalJigsaw:
How true is this post?

"How Career Choices Can Either Make or Mar Your Professional Life

This is Ademola Lookman and Tammy Abraham.

Ademola Lookman rejected the England Three Lions offer to play for England and decided to commit his international career to Nigeria.

Tammy Abraham rejected all the offer from Nigeria to play for Super Eagles and decided to play for England.

While Ademola Lookman is currently in the pole position of becoming the next African Footballer of the Year, in the Ballon D'or who came 14th and is currently in the apex of his career but in the case of Tammy Abraham he is regretting his decision for committing his international career to England where he is no longer considered and can no longer be invited because of obvious reasons.

Now Tammy Abraham is pleading for a chance to play for Super Eagles of Nigeria."

Lookman did not reject England please... Die the thought.
If he was playing like he is now 4 years ago, he wouldn't have given us a thought, not a chance!
You think if Lookman was a starter at Chelsea the way Abraham was, he would still have chosen us?
Just forget it!

Mybettingtips:
@thegoodjoe see your manager. The man is going through a lot. He must have stood in front of a mirror after a game and gave himself good head smack and scratches. Things are not going well right now for Pep. I hope he bounces back quickly

The guy should calm down.... Everyday is not Christmas; when he was beating everyone blue-black and shattering klopp's hopes every season... Na genius we dey call am
Now it's his turn to feel little of how he has been making other coaches feel for years, he wan kill himself? He should go ahead

daveP:
Time, in a normal settings, will tell.

Nff reliability gauge
Their seriousness for business
Ehen

I pray sha

This isn't an NFF issue...
If he really wants to pay for us; whatever NFF does won't matter.

Person wey don dey Arsenal first team? , even if we roll out the red carpet, he still won't choose us.
Any foreign born Nigerian playing for a big club, I dey always comot mind
