How come other managers are fired for results and not behavior?

How much must you stink up, the job that even your players are against you?

somehow:
Because a Dutch writer did, I should swallow such writings?

If he's got bad man management as being preached, why was he winning matches with the players thereby setting records? Was he using mercheneries?

crismark:
i support d guy....at least whenever she is passing her boundary its good to remind her dat u re d man of d house wit a hot modifying slap..

Amazinpeace:
can't say but I will marry that kind of man if he has potentials, not all ladies go for already made guys

Kog45:
Henry Oyekwuru played mostly as winger,as top man he couldn't do it in his club but very solid from the wings.

My point is this making 23 man list with the presence of Victor Moses,Alex Iwobi,Simeon Moses and Ahmed Musa not easy for him and Rohr will never consider him as number three striker after Ighalo and Iheanacho.

darkelf:
If he continues like that, I assure you he'll never step into anybody's shoes. Not even ayodele Makinwa

You can imagine the indiscipline. This guy just made me really angry.

somehow:
Your question has nothing to do with what I have been typing. Stay within the context of my post if we're discussing my post.

If oliseh was so bad as they have painted it, how then did he set all the records? With which players and staff? Shouldn't all of them be against him or at least most?

Make we reason am na.

Some poeple already have a pre-assumed mindset of Oliseh so anything that supports this, they lash on.

When things was rosy and he was enjoying good performance, some here we're putting up the 'but' in their statements waiting for one slip so they can say "I told you".


Weird set of Nigerians.

Kog45:
My major point is third striker which i don't think Rohr would consider Oyekwuru for cos you mentioned him.

So Oyekwuru have Victor Moses,Simeon Moses,Alex Iwobi and Ahmed Musa to compete with meaning that one must be dropped for him to make the team,huge task.

The third striker apart from Ighalo and Iheanacho have to be from Nwakaeme,Ideye and Kayode,mentioning Nwakaeme,Ideye and Kayode was based on being part of Rohr team during qualifier nothing more,hope you read my line on Martins,i said i don't see his calling happening.

Now my question is will you consider Oyekwuru as third striker ahead of Ideye or Nwakaeme in the 23 man list.

Kog45:
Pls why are we disturbing ourselves with Success.A real student of Nigeria football history would never be bothered cos we have seen enough of them better than Isaac Success in all ramifications but with same attitudes.

Pls do you know Tarilla Okorowanta,Etim Esin,Ochucko Otis,Dondo Ava,Duke UDI,Emma Ebiede,these are extremely talented footballers who are supposed to make it in the world of football but indiscipline ruined them,so Success would not be exceptional unless he changed his attitude.

Some months ago i was telling anyone who care to listen that Success is not a player for this WC,may be 2022 if he can changed but sentiments beclouded some and said am talking trash but good even Success people which i belonged are beginning to see it now.

Sir Komkne always saying it that Success is a failure,pls check Iheanacho now but a lot disagreed citing that he is extremely talented forgetting football is always about discipline not even talent.

Success is someone I know very well right from U 17 in UAE,very bozzling guy who love partying a lot,he shiuld just take it cool and learn from extremely talented players likes Eric Cantona,David Ginola,Paul Gascoigne and Etim Esin,what was the end result.

TheGoodJoe:
With the right diet and drills, Isaac Success can get back into shape. With more drive, focus and hardwork, he can get back to form.

However, the idea of him having a negative influence on our players is frightening.

ChrisKels:
Henry is about the most ambitious youngster in Eagles rank now. His story no be here. Like komekn the English FA supremo rightly said, Isaac is a waste man. He is got nothing to offer Nigerian football, I just don't want him anywhere near our shining lights who are serious with their careers.

darkelf:
Umar Sadiq scores for NAC Breda today in their 3-1 defeat at home to AZ Alkmar

gbosaa:
What’s so special about Isaac Success? Dude should forget the World Cup and focus on keeping himself fit. How the hell did he amass so much fats that his present team had intervene by putting him on special diet to bring his weight down.

I don’t see him as a serious footballer.

Why Liverpool fans got excited about tackling machine Ndidi…

https://d2x51gyc4ptf2q.cloudfront.net/content/uploads/2018/02/14152710/Wilfred-Ndidi-Jordan-Henderson-700x366.jpg


There are two reasons why one Liverpool fan’s opinion piece about the Reds’ need for a player like Wilfred Ndidi spawned dozens of transfer stories still reverberating around the globe a week later. The first is the desperation of a click-hungry sports media for transfer gossip in February and the second is that it made complete sense.
This is a team without any discernible dynamism in midfield and here is a player who has made more tackles this season than any other Premier League player. Liverpool fans understandably went a little gooey and started dreaming of an Ndidi/Keita midfield that would condemn the stodginess of Jordan Henderson to the bench or even another club.
If Claude Puel spends any time at all on the internet, we hope he reads Mediawatch and thus knows that those reports are unfounded. We would hate the wonderfully unruffled Frenchman to get ruffled so soon after he had successfully fought to keep hold of Riyad Mahrez. But while quoting numbers approaching £100m for the Algerian, we cannot help but wonder about the asking price for the Nigerian, five years younger but equally vital to Leicester’s mission to reclaim European football.

Were you to believe the people we are duty-bound to call boffins from the CIES Football Observatory then you would put his value at around £58m. In a list released in December , Ndidi was rated as the 11th most valuable Under-21 player across Europe’s big five leagues. Only Dele Alli, Leroy Sane, Marcus Rashford, Gabriel Jesus, Anthony Martial and Davinson Sanchez were given higher values among young Premier League players, and two of that number have since turned 22.
It will not have escaped your notice that all of those players are at top-six clubs. Whether it be Liverpool or another suitor, it seems unlikely that Ndidi will be allowed to quietly excel at Leicester far beyond this summer’s World Cup. That’s not how football works in 2018.





When a player only joins a club in January and still wins the Young Player of the Year award, you know that he is special.

When a player joins in January but makes more tackles than all but two of his teammates across the whole season, you know why Claudio Ranieri called him a ‘warrior’. Ndidi based his game on that of his hero Jon Obi Mikel, was compared to Yaya Toure in Belgium and has walked (scratch that, he never walks) into inevitable N’Golo Kante comparisons at Leicester; you can certainly see traces of all in his relentless running and prolific tackling.

The tackling is the headline statistic (113 successful tackles with Everton’s Idrissa Gueye a distant second on 85) but that has to be tempered by the fact that no Premier League player has been dribbled past more; he simply attempts a hell of a lot more tackles than anybody else, though his success rate of 62.5% trails behind both Gueye (68%) and Kante (64%). But even taken with those pinches of salt, to be that effective at 21 is simply spectacular.

“He is a fantastic recoverer of the ball, winning the ball back, and gives us possession,” says Puel, but the Frenchman has also been careful to keep using the word ‘potential’; he clearly sees his job as turning Ndidi into a complete midfielder rather than just a tackling machine. The question is whether he will get the opportunity to complete that job or whether the task will be handed over to Jurgen Klopp or Another in exchange for £60m or more.
One thing that should not be difficult to improve is Ndidi’s shooting. As it stands he has taken the most Premier League shots this season without scoring. He’s probably not quite as proud of being top of that particular table.

Russia 2018 WC Countdown: 118 days 23 hours to go

tonysmart2017:
for better future prospect. Please quit & take it.

tbaba1234:
Manu Garba abandoned his best under 20 players on the bench and went for those who were largely still homebased to help them find clubs. The result was a poor performance which did not help anyone find good European clubs.

If you choose your best players regardless of where they are based. The chance for a good tournament is high. This improves the chances for the home-based to find good clubs.

MetalJigsaw:
De Ja Vu or not? Well, all thanks to Liverpool for sealing the game for me in just 45 minutes with no tension unlike that lowly CHAN fake eagles that almost forced my heart out of my mouth with a 1-0 plus a man down for 90+ minutes the other day.

2.35... should I have gone a bit greedy with a halftime win?

100,000 to 235,000


To God be the glory


Esther is in for a Royal Rumble tonight hahahaa

Kog45:
Sir,apart from Deji and Maduka who are willing, hope you know how these FBs behaves when it comes to switch allegiance,so no need waste our times in begging players for U 20 when we have pool of talents at home.

If they are ready for us no issue but i believe U17 or any age group teams should be for home grown especially 80% home grown and 20% for FB cos focusing more of our attention on FBS would be suicide to our grassroots development.

Super eagles foreign based and now Fly eagles foreign based then what remains for our young ones at home trying to have breakthrough through underage tourney better to make it HG 80% FB 20%.

Modified* pls why Germany based guys centre of attraction.

tbaba1234:
Kelechi is the best pk taker in the team.

AIG07:
all what these guys need is putting a little extra work in training and we'll be good to go.

But why has no one talked about defending setpieces. During 2014 Worldcup we conceded 2goals against Argentina, 1goal against france via these same setpieces(out of a total of 5goals conceded 3 were from setpieces) and that was during Enyeama's time o...

Hmmm... That thing de scare me.

elyte89:
Both players are not even sure of starting eleven

So sad because he actually does have a high football IQ.

kennysville:
Have you seen Iheanacho's penalty kicks? No play O! That is like iheanachos one on one with any goalie.... Dude go finish any goalie wella! I am not hyping but to me, he is better than VicMo in PK

AIG07:
So your pick for penalty kicks is Victor Moses-I think that's a fair one.

Victor's ball deliveries most especially crosses are poor. But I think he can be work on. His deliveries against Cameroon in Uyo are testament to this. One from the corner kick lead to a goal. The direct free kicks he took that day weren't that bad as one hit the target though the resultant goal was over turned.

A bit of extra training should put him in shape.

CaptainStephen:
Ndidi should also be saddled with direct freekicks from 35 yards, the boy rocket luncher leg must not waste

Icon79:
So we have to load up even the cadet squad with these many foreign based players? For what??
What then are we paying you for? To gather some already made players??

Naija coaches are a special kinda lazy sha. Unbelievable!


O pari

AIG07:
Throughout the World Cup qualifiers, the Super Eagles scored 12goals across 6matches averaging 2goals per match which is an impressive stat putting in mind the strength of the opponents they faced and going on to concede 4goals in total.

Of the 12goals scored, only 1 was scored via setpiece(corner kick) while the rest came from open play. The team conceded 4goals: 2 from open play and 2 from spotkick(resulting from avoidable goalkeeping errors). This has gone to show how strong our line of defence was against the top, strong and physical african sides.

With Rohr, looking forward to strengthen his defence and finding a reliable and permanent solution to the ever unconvincing goalkeeping department, I see the team putting off any forms of attack from the open play.

In the light of this, Eagles opponents might have to exploit other means to break the Eagles' wall and get the desired points/results. One of these means will definitely be SET-PIECES.

Eagles' group stage opponents Croatia, Iceland and Argentina all boast of world class and deadly dead ball specialists. These opponents, might decide to draw fouls out of our boys in dangerous areas to capitalise on our team's weakness-SET PIECE DEFENDING.

There is therefore need for us to settle and fix our inabilities to convert and defend setpieces before
we kick the first ball at the mundial.

A very good left and right setpiece takers who have the ability of weeping deadly balls into the 18yard boxes from left and right sides of the pitch. These players should be our notable takers in the upcoming friendlies so as to enable them to master the act before World cup proper.

*my suggestions*
Victor Moses
Simon Moses
Kelechi Iheanacho.

your views on this.

Icon79:
Wow. Oliseh is already accusing the football of a crime? Hmmm.

Let's hope that he hasn't gotten himself blacklisted from coaching anywhere in Europe or even getting sued sef.


O pari

TheSuperNerd:
Boss Joseph1013, Sir Terzurum5, Sir Orkpekyandega, Chief Icon4s.... all other monikers and protocols duly recognised.

I think with the appointment of our youth and cadet team coaches, we need to create new threads for them to follow up on news about them separately from the Super Eagles. This has always been the trend... what do you suggest? Normally it is Joseph1013 who handles and creates all threads on our under age sides.... so what do you guys think? I am dropping this here because none ahead of the 2019 Tournaments have been created just yet.
