WATCH OUT...DIS MAN WILL BE INVITED/FORCED BACK TO D NATIONAL TEAM

Not happening

charlesemeka85:

Be doing OK there, that's future super eagles coach if you don't know

tbaba1234:
No away win

Lol, no be everytime away team go dey win na, at least there's a 5-0 scoreline

oloriooko:
The English FA arranged his move to ManU just to promote him ahead of Van, he's not worth that price ans nothing near the quality of Van.

Nawa o, Woodward told you this?

andrewbaba44:
If wayne rooney decide to stay at the epl he would

Rooney was washed up according to you but would easily score 15 goals a season as an attacking midfielder

How many nigerian players have played active football at even 33 self? 38 is too much

Mikel is doing it at 33, maybe osimhen, chuks,iwobi ekong might do it because those guys are so fvcking young

I understand you, but not all the time age sometimes these players too need a last pay cheque before they call it quit, then no sane club will buy a 33yrs old player who in his youthful days had an average career. 80% of the players we've produced in the past 10-20yrs were average players

andrewbaba44:
Agreed , thats why i said mikel is prooving me wrong

correct guy

andrewbaba44:
Many naija players at 32 where 42

Only mikel obi is proving me wrong at old age ,and maybe ighalo will soon

you ever thought maybe they could be playing with their real age? I remember in year 2003 after that year's U-17 fiasco when the press asked Eguavoen why his boys flopped like that, he said because they were very young and inexperienced. Mikel was part of that team and I'm quite convinced that he's either playing with his real age or not too far from his age maybe a year or two difference

Blueelf:
But zlatan na real boss ooo

Balling at 38 still.

Meanwhile Naija players don't go club wey their name end in "spor" at just 32.

I don't even understand this slander against Nigerian players, how many 38 yrs old still play active football? At the age of 28 Wayne Rooney was already washed up and had to move to America I didn't hear you call out British players. Bros I go vex for you o

Bobo Nacho dey bench today

andrewbaba44:
Oga kalu has played as a winger and he even lacked goals nor assists so leave this wing back excuse

was about to point this out, his numbers have never been great

elyte89:
Nerdy ,now u guys can c y rohr prefer dis guy to Samuel kalu,its end product is good compare to kalu,yet we call for his once he start him...



Meanwhile

by the next international games, nobody should even whine or cry if this guy starts ahead of Kalu

do4luv14:
I think he is a former mancity/man united youth teamer

Liverpool

Brighton don't even bother about Balogun these days, as usual he's not in the MD squad, while Solanke is only good enough for the bench

Joebie:
Yes he kept for them in their first 6 games this season and has not been in the matchday squad since then. I have to do more digging to know what’s going on. Lobi has another Daniel who is also a keeper — Daniel Atsaka.

probably he's gone to an Arabian club to make more $$$

Joebie:
The 3 keepers behind Lobi's top clean sheet run so far this season:

1. Emmanuel Daniel (5)
2. Moses Ocheje (3)
3. James Faith (2)

Credit must also go to the team's defense.

same Emmanuel Daniel from the last Olympics?

The WCQ billed to start in March have been moved instead we'll have AFCON qualifier games

jimmyiovine:
Which angle?! What specialities do PWC have in order to be in charge of recruiting football coaches? Do their staff know about coaching licenses and qualifications or the knowledge/experience to understand the cv of coaches? Very silly from the NFF. Infact make dem kuku sack every body in technical committee, since they can’t be trusted to do their jobs

PWC wasn't mentioned the report said a private firm

Subzero047:
The technical committee is knees deep with these coaches, if they conduct this interview there's a 100% chance it will not be fair

Pinnick got this one right

looking at it from your angle, I think you are right

Subzero047:
They are to make sure there is no biasness in the selection of coaches

Your motives are getting clearer

lol, you don't have to always tackle him, I think he's actually correct this time. If the technical comitee can't preside over interviews for the coaching role of all our teams, then we need to ask what exactly is their job function

What do y'all think? https://twitter.com/TosinAdarabioyo/status/1218235225723019265?s=09

Joebie:
OGN don start. How credible is this news?

Disengaged Coaches Of Nigeria U17, 20 Teams Reapply To Keep Their Position
January 16, 2020 095

Former head coaches of the national youth teams of Nigeria have tender their letter of application to continue in their role following the expiration of their contracts which wasn’t renewed by the Nigeria Football Federation ( NFF) .


NFF disengaged the coaches after their contracts expired citing poor performance of the team as the reason why the football body is throwing open their positions but the coaches want to keep their position.

As at the time of filing in this reports, coach Manu Garba, Paul Aigbogun and Imama Amapakabo have all applied to keep their jobs as coach of the Under-17, Under-20 and Under-23 respectively. Some of their assistants also applied.

This time around the NFF won’t be in charge of the recruitment as it has been handed over to a private firm who will screen the candidates before conducting an interview among the coaches for recommendations to the NFF.

Already as many as 60 coaches have applied and most of them possess coaching certificates of the highest level making the process a lot harder to pick the successful candidates for the job.

not a bad thing they applied, the bad thing will be if they get reappointed

Taste of what Barcelona fans should expect from Setien as he takes over Barcelona play books.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0wfa8W4X4gg

looks good, I just hope they can be patient with him if he doesn't hit the ground running. I think they can forget this season because adjusting to his style may take some time and Madrid are beginning to hit top form

elyte89:
Well success is relative...what u term as success to ursef might not b to anoda person...to dem,I feel been called a three lion player or an ex international English player might b worthwhile to dem Dan any oda thing..or do u think dis players dt refuse to opt for Nigerian don't weigh up deir options b4 choosing deir final destinations? Dey re not kids nor dumb,dey av advisers,dey av weighed up both options well b4 choosing (england);and am sure most know fully well dey stand little or no chance of having a bright career,yet dey will still choose england

I agree with you, we all have different ambitions in life

Totally enjoyed watching this

Kbs468:
I'm not even saying he would be defensive minded ooo

But that Super Eagles wouldn't be conceding goals Left Right and center per say should he venture into coaching profession ooo

Keshi was a defender but during his time as coach we were very poor at defending set pieces, so poor that Tahiti scored corner kick against us

tbaba1234:
You make good points but summer tournaments allow for better preparation and less club-country conflicts.

Let's not forget, there are more African players in Europe than Asians so Europeans will definitely kick against losing important players in the middle of the season.

The weather point is very valid.

Cameroon said there will be heavy downpour in their country during the months of June and July. I also think the change in date is good because the newly expanded club World Cup will take place May/June ending just few days to the start of the Afcon. That schedule would have been very tight for some players

Official: Afcon 2021 have been brought forward. New date is now Jan 9 - Feb 6

Icon4s:
You get thge point.
..in addition Amuneke won the U17 WC and took Tanzania to the AFCON after they couldn't qualify since after 39 yrs

but someone think we should give the job to yobo because he has over 100 caps which means he sabi the job

Danielnino00:
Because he is human..

Is it so wrong for an ex international to coach the national team ?
Didn't Keshi and Siasia achieve success with the national team when they were in charge?
Some of the most successful national teams in the world are being coached by ex internationals..

nobody is saying he shouldn't coach the SE but he needs to prove he can do it, it's wrong for anybody to even suggest his name, on what basis? What has he done? Keshi coached U-20, Togo and Mali's NTs. Siasia handled U-20 and U-23 even Chukwu handled Kenya and used to be assistant to either Bonfree or Westerhof. The NT job isn't to be used as a training ground for anybody.

Danielnino00:
I don't see much difference there....We had that game against Argentina in control..He just needed to make some changes to replace the tired legs in the team and we could have nicked a draw... Against Ukraine,it was the same thing.. at the AFCON against Cameroon,it almost happened...
I don't deny that Rohr is good defensively,but saying that he is a master at protecting leads is a bit overstretching things .. .

And I say again if he was in charge of that Barca team,there is a very good chance that he would have lost too..
Didn't PSG blow away a 4-0 lead to Barca in the UCL sometimes ago ?

How? We scored first, they equalised and scored 2-1 we equalised and then took the lead which we held on to. So what did he almost blow?
