We may not be able to convince Ethan Nwaneri to play for us.

Abeg make The NFF and U20 coach call this lad up quickly.

he’s a youth prodigy, comot mind

Odunayaw:
A certain Junior Ajayi on Hellas Verona's bench. Transfermarket says he is Ivorien

Any other info about him?

sofascore think he’s a Nigerian

Starboytwo:
omo I just check Fotmob now, Oboy Southampton are so poor🤦 kilode..

Infact, Aribo is their highest goal scorer with 3 goals in about 23 games or so.

However, of all the goal scorers in Soton, Onuachu has played less (14 match 2 goals) every other person is 20+ games...

Hopefully he can do about 6-10...

he will do well to end the season with 5 goals

Chelle met with Ndidi, Simon and Iwobi and also spoke extensively with Osimhen

elyte89:
If na only own goal report am.. I for say na 100percent fake news,but sam Audu of score Nigeria report am too..and dt man Dey get some
Serious exclusive for hand .it seems he has an insider but for this news ,both na fake news

I’m surprised Audu fell for it, I’m sure their source is owngoal

zicky:
Fans call out Kanu for poor performance of Enyimba.
For me the fan is absolutely correct.

this is for those people who think only former footballers can be successful football administrators, just compare Anyansi with Kanu

Owngoal go just dey one corner and start fake news for no reason

maidaboi:
that season it was merited

Mbappe = Monaco
Nacho = Man city

abegggg

ChrisKels:
Iheanacho has never been over hyped. His hype was on merit and the hype rightly died down also when he started declining.

iheanacho better than Mbappe was over the top tho

Kog45:
Hypebuzz academy to Royal Antwerp now Southampton....Madalla boy carry go

is he a striker or a winger?

A certain Victor Udoh is about to join Southampton from Antwerp in Belgium

Truidstarr:
He was never a wonder kid, na Una dey hype am unnecessarily for here.

he was, ahead of that U-17 World Cup he was our best player, Zlatan met him just to make him move to Sweden. He was a very fine prospect before he derailed himself

elyte89:
E b like say Ghana 🇬🇭 don vex sack deir coach o

elyte89:
When a player can give u what u need , the league shouldn’t be a barrier

Cc charlesemeka85

won’t happen

TheGoodJoe:
More than 4000 talented players from all over the country thronged the pitch of the FIFA Goal Project in Abuja, Nigeria’s political capital, looking for a chance to make it into the team.

Amuneke found a way to see many of them play. He would group the boys into teams with a 30-minute time limit.

Are you saying the over 4000 players were recommended?

I repeat, if we don't go back to open screening for U17, and even improve on it and make it even more thorough, with more time and even more zones. Until then, people should not worry themselves with our U17 programs.

Finito.

cc: elyte89 TheGoodjoe my comment was based on this article, divided them into teams and they play 30 minutes each, please do the maths how many teams do you think he can watch in a day?

Finito.

he didn’t screen the 4000 sha, in fact I’m sure he didn’t screen up to 400

Amedino99:
Osimhen Sha

i would be more worried if he doesn’t get these chances, last season Haaland had the most in the epl this season he’s second

kingphilip:
And had a lot of (if I am not mistaken) own goals to show for it.

mention 5

Kog45:
Rohr picked Idowu,Simmy Nwankwo right but he is not a fraud but Keshi na fraud

but who called Keshi fraud?

humility33:
Kolo once got a top job with Wigan but he malperformed that was about 2 seasons ago .
He couldn't deliver on the job, the loosing streak continued and that was how he lost the job .
I agree with the chances are slim but they come once in a while and it is something that should be grabbed with both hands

this is what I’m saying, try to make something out of the opportunity you get, we can’t keep crying without putting in the work

TheGoodJoe:
That is one of the reasons I am supporting Vincent Kompany. I believe him succeeding can open ways for more black coaches to get trust.

For instance, just checking, a whole Kolo Toure is assistant coach for Manchester City U16s.

As in, a whole Kolo Toure, captain of Manchester City, Liverpool and Arsenal.

Miami fashie this thing.

Laugh is choking me.

Kolo Toure has a UEFA Pro License and UEFA Executive Masters and is doing assitant work in academy. Someone that was coaching in Celtic, Leicester City, Wigan.

Kolo was poor as a coach, if he’s sure of his talent he can try outside England. Viera have coached France America England and now Italy, there are few black men in sport management so it’s normal to have very few coaches

Kog45:
Oya if Lampard and Rooney be black wetin go dey....

I’m not saying it’s easy but my point is if you are aspiring coach as a black man will you rather seat down and cry or get down to work and make the best of your career? Besides there are black coaches in France, at least I know Antoine Kamboure ex-PSG coach he has coached several team in the French league

Kog45:
fraudulent Nigerian?

I mean it was obvious he became ‘Nigerian’ just to play at the World Cup

Franktom247:
Amunike can't lace Chelle shoes like seriously
[b]because of AFCON Quarter Fina[/b]l

Make things begin Chelle first

Oya na, why Oga Amu no get even 1 point when he carry team go Afcon?

zicky:
Seeing Shola there I feel somehow but it is what it is.

I swear, very fraudulent Nigerian

Kog45:
Who told you that ex internationals are lazy or do you think it's easy for black men in coaching world.....

🤦🏿 here we go again!!! Excuses yi nooni

zicky:
How is that now a natural thing when a coach and his crew were poor according to you.

who called Peseiro poor? He wasn’t sacked he left because he couldn’t agree to a new deal

DABIGATRAN:
When the Portuguese journeyman left with his boring defensive tactics, everyone was clamouring for Amunike to be given the job. It was just natural.

In the following weeks, paid hands from the usual quarters started producing articles and write-ups about how Amunike would have a fierce and querulous relationship with the NFF ...bla bla bla. Before one could say jack, enter Finidi!!
The rest is history.

Igbos have now been officially barred from holding any tangible coaching position in the Nigeria and that is why we are here moving from Finidi to Eguavon to Mali...next is China or Cambodia. THE BIG NIGERIAN PROBLEM

the natural thing was for Peseiro assistant who had been with the team for a while and is also a league winner to takeover not everybody clamored for your Emmanuel ‘fired in Egypt and Zambia’ Amunike. Carry your useless agenda away from here

zicky:
Goodjoe is right you don't put the failure of a head coach on the assistant. Finidi was Peseiro assistant and was employed even after sacking peseiro. Ivory Coast hire Fae an assistant to the head coach. But when it comes to Amuneke it all changes, he must also carry the blame. That's why Goodjoe feels there's a conspiracy against Amuneke

comparing grapes and apples, Amunike was fired alongside Sia1 and the whole crew and Keshi was employed was Keshi a Hausa man? Fae was hired in tournament and that was the sensible thing to do, can’t fire the whole crew during a tournament.

TheGoodJoe:
Taiwo's case was clearly explained by coach Sylvanus Okpala. Keshi overhead Taiwo planning to sabotage the team to fail and he got axed.

I think Martins was dropped due to poor performances in that window.

Okpala’s explanation made no sense and neither do I believe Keshi was tribalistic just trying to tell you that Amunike had nothing with tribe

DABIGATRAN:
We have won the U-17 world cup only 5 times since its inception. Amunike has 2: one as assistant coach, another as head coach.

Amunike took a rag-tag Tanzanian team through the AFCON qualifiers and secured the ticket.

Amunike played for top clubs like Sporting Lisbon and Barcelona.

Amunike scored decisive goals that won Nigeria international laurels.

Amunike has a top coaching license.

Stop the hate guys!!

ok sir, we’ll build a statue for him as the first ever coach to do all these

TheGoodJoe:
Sorry, the point does not stick to me. We are talking about making Amunike the head coach and him suffering terrible sabotage when he was head coach of different National teams. These are pure facts and truth. I don't need to prove it. Picking an unqualified Finidi over him is a fact. I don't need to prove it. Calling him to tactically make inputs to help Eguavoen in I think a two game tie is nothing.

every single coach dead or alive white or black have suffered different level of sabotage as you call it (incompetence is the right word tho) by the NFF
