I think this set piece thing is a general problem for African teams. It's only recently our Super Eagles have been trying to improve in that area. Also, African teams and defending set-pieces is another issue despite some of the African teams boasting giants on their teams.

It's really a problem of coaching if you ask me. Most African teams don't exactly seem to put above basic efforts into "set-pieces training" either for offensive or defensive situations.

Omeruo, ekong, ajayi n awaziem re world class

Tosin is joining super eagles soon

By the way....what is wrong with our goalkeepers.
will Francis be ready for the march clashes.

tbaba1234:
He does not need a switch. He can be invited in March.

andrewbaba44:
Mou that is rated as the 2nd best coach in the past decade

I just called klopp ahead of mou recently , i am not a fan of mou, but broda dude is good and you cant take it away from him

jihday:
Tony Bolus have been sacked as MFM's coach after yesterday's home loss to Enyimba. The reserve team coach will be in charge temporarily

andrewbaba44:
You can imagine he called small boy Zidane but he didn’t call mourinho and he was trying to correct me

Blueelf:
If only Jerseys won games

andrewbaba44:
I will not call you mad as it’s your opinion bro

But common pochettino over rohr

I rate only 2 coaches ahead of pochettino in world football ,I don’t need to tell you their names

tbaba1234:
I think one of the problems with football is that there are too many stakeholders. Too many people are interested, from the federal government level to local governments.

Nigeria basketball players are made up mainly of US born stars on merit. You can not do that with football without backlash. Aigbogun was given a limit to the number of foreign born talents, he can add to his team for instance. Even Imama was given a foreign based player limit.

Most football coaches can not just invite the best players and select from the best. There are just so many things at play.

It would be difficult to get the NFF up to the level of the NBBF.

Where do our basketball teams get money to employ NBA coaches ? This is like hiring top managers pochetino and that wolves coach for super eagles

TheSuperNerd:
Lol... There was. But as I recall as a very little kid back then, we didn't qualify for the 2001 U-20 WC. The one that saw Saviola emerge from and had Ghana taking third I think.

Come to think of it sef... Ejide even made his NT debut before Enyeama. Enyeama's first senior cap came on May 4, 2002 vs Kenya as a 19 yr old.

tbaba1234:
Well, like i told Jihday a few days back, it is not a drill.

Wait till you hear the under 20 coach too.

isan:
When the season end he will buy another 100m midfielder instead of grooming foden to a world beater and also buy another world class defender instead giving adarabioyo a shot

TheGoodJoe:
For almost a whole season, Zinchenko played as a left back. Not deploying in a game.

Were you expecting Jose to outplay pep coached team? It hv never happened before and will never happen. Their style and philosophy approaching a game differs but you have to accept the bitter truth that Jose masterfully got the desired 3 points which many never thought was possible. That's tactical masterclass

TheGoodJoe:
Top knotch bomb. Tottenham were played off the park. Manchester City missed good chances. Do you remember the Aguero miss where Lloris was on the ground and a little dink would have been a goal? Penalty miss? Was that due to Mastermind brilliance of Mourinho?

Coach have their tactics. Some are to win games and brag. Others are to Create legacies that will change the face off football. Guardiola came and changed English football forever. That shows he is a genius, not winning by luck and claiming Mastermind.

TheGoodJoe:
Na wa for the r you people. What is master class? Did you watch the game. Tottenham were played off the park. Manchester City were sloppy in front of goal and unlucky. Heck, we even missed a penalty. Was that also Mourinho's Mastermind?

Even with a man down, we were still out playing Tottenham. They were just fortunate. Congrats to them but do not make it look as if Mourinho did anything special when he was totally outplayed.

tbaba1234:
I thought Rangers was eliminated.

Danielnino00:
Enyimba will be in action shortly against San Pedro... A draw could be enough to see them qualify for the next round..

Rangers will host El Masry at 7pm .. they need a win to qualify for the next round..

TheSuperNerd:
Meanwhile, Dessers got some Beautiful legwork man.... Nice dribble in the box which takes him past his man but he couldn't connect that final pass to his teammate. They are still a goal down.

andrewbaba44:
Because sold haaland for 20 million?

Osimhen that was bought for 13rmillion euros nah and you are here they wont sell him for anywhere close to 20 million euros,lol, go and check his rate at transfrmkt its at 30 million euros

Lille will sell osimhen for nothing less than 40 million euros

ChrisKels:
Bia Jide what time is it over there wey u dun high already?

tbaba12345:
Ha, you might be getting your wish. It is not a drill.

andrewbaba44:
That’s why he said cheap nah

40 million is cheap for a good striker and victor is good and young

tbaba1234:
I am hearing whispers about the new youth teams coaches.

If true, most people will be disappointed as some old names will be making a return.
