Amuneke is my first choice but I like Siasia too. But how can he even concentrate on the job right now with everything hanging over his head?

Samson Siasia is always my Choice as local Coach. He's serving Ban, thus can't even be considered for the Job.

KPOM!

My only concern is the NFF bringing us another clueless coach especially someone like Daniel Amokachie or some foreign journeyman coach.

Right now, I think Emmanuel Amuneke is the right person to takeover the team. And they better fire him right away if they wanna get rid of him. That will give the new coach a few months before the next international break and AFCON to come up with his program for the team. Don’t wait until two weeks before AFCON to change coaches.

As a matter of fact, they have left it too late already. Rohr should’ve been fired on the day we lost to Argentina.

I don't even think you people realise how low Super Eagles have fallen, that is why some of you are still concerning yourselves with frivolities on this matter.

Keshi sparked a resurgence in the excitement for Nigerian football, people wanted to watch the team play, people were excited to see the team play.

Rohr has dragged us back to woeful times, although, in his defense, the likes of Oliseh started the decline. Today, no channel of repute will show even our World Cup Qualifying games and no Nigerian is concerned.

We are back to the trenches, and it is a travesty considering all of the exciting talent we have on display.

A TRAVESTY

Yup. The African qualifiers are by far the toughest ones to navigate. And what annoys me the most is that these Arab countries only know how to compete against Sub Sahara African countries but they will collapse once they get on the world stage. I hope none of them makes it this time around. I would rather have:
Nigeria
Cameron
Senegal
Mali
Congo DRc or Ghana representing Africa than the likes of Algeria, Tunisia, Morocco, and Egypt.

Good point. They know that Rohr is desperate to hold onto the job, that’s why they stuck with him … someone they can push around and tell which players to invite or not invite.

Nobody in their right senses and with respect for their career, will take the Nigerian coaching job right now. Not while the current administration remains

Good point on the Naija factor sha.

As regards to Sunday Oliseh, he’s a good coach but a very poor man manager. I don’t wanna see him anywhere near Super Eagles team again, as a coach.


O pari

codemaniacs:
Amuneke will also have to play according to the instructions of the NFF and what part of Nigeria the president is from matters a lot in Nigeria.... Oliseh is also a good coach but he also had to play according to the NFF and that disrupted and disorganized the team coupled with Oliseh's behavior towards the players..
SportsRe: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by Icon79(m): 6:42pm On Nov 16, 2021
Emmanuel Amuneke is 10x better than Gernot Rohr as a coach.

If we have problems playing against the likes of Central African Republic, Liberia, and Cape Verde; how are we going to compete against the likes of CIV, Ghana, Tunisia, or Cameron?

And he barely makes any changes during the course of the game. Strange!

I personally think the team would play better without a coach, than with Rohr on the sidelines.

Just give boys ball and tell them to play to win, and they would do better than what we have had to witness the last two games

Gernot Rohr has overstayed his welcome, for real. There was ZERO pressure on Ahmed Musa on that penalty, so it was quite an easy goal to score. I mean, we’ve already technically won the match and Musa’s penalty was the last kick of the game. Gosh, even my grandma would’ve buried that one.

And how can he use cold weather as an excuse when almost all our players reside in Europe? Is Morocco colder than Europe?


O pari

Joebie:

Na old age they worry this baba.

"Musa came in and scored the second goal, it is not easy to score a penalty especially if you come in only a few minutes so I was very happy about the two changes."

"Morocco it was cold, it was not easy for them to come in, we didn't want to make a mistake at 1-0 and to concede a goal."

True sha. I can predict Nigeria’s group even before we qualify sef:
- Argentina

- Nigeria
- Any other country

Big Joe, I ain’t kidding tho. They said that Gerard rates him highly and you know he still hasn’t reached his potentials yet.
