oga, Pinnick is going about it a very very wrong way. Why all the media panorama. He did the same with Tammy. All Eze needed was an official invitation. If he turns that down, then he should be allowed time and space to rescind his decision. komekn: Thankfully Amaju is not ignorant of the dynamics of football marketing and value associated with national allegiance.
Soon Eberechi Eze will be playing for Nigeria, my expectations before the end of January or sooner. |

Tell them make dem hia .. All those patriotic bs. tbaba1234: Football is a career, some of us make moves in our careers primarily for financial reasons not because we love our company more than another.
When the financially better move aligns with a career advancement move. The choice is easy. That is why most players will choose England over Nigeria.
It does not mean, they love one country over the other. Some of these boys listen to mainly Nigerian music but they have a connection to both countries. |

That Umar matter for Glasgow no pure.. modified Komekn need to be balanced Koboko99: On Sadiq Umar's time at Rangers FC and his relationship with Steven Gerrard.
Speaking to The Sunday Post, he said: “All of a sudden, I was told that I could not use the first-team dressing-room any more. Instead I had to go change with the kids. Then, after a few days, I was also forbidden to park my car inside the training centre.
“I felt humiliated and kept asking what was the reason for the change of attitude. But I never received any answers. Gerrard wouldn’t give any explanation about it, neither to me nor my representatives.
“I believe absolutely that I was not given a fair chance to show what I can do. They made me feel like a stranger. I started only once (in the League Cup semi-final against Aberdeen) and that was when there were no other strikers available.
“As I say, for me everything went wrong after they brought in another striker (Lafferty). Once I put a ‘like’ on Instagram to a post from a fan – and I was fined £20,000, which was absurd.
“And Rangers didn’t even pay me up everything I was due. They still have to give me my salary for December.”
If we talk about a certain player at wolves, someone will tell us he was frozen out of the team because of Jorge Mendez involvement with the club but he's always too quick to pass a judgment on Sadiq Umar.
Sadiq was froze out of the team too without any explanation, not like he played 25 games without scoring.
If you can make excuses for someone because he didn't get to play then think twice before you pass such judgement on Sadiq. |

It won't happen, that's my point. What we have is a Nigerian problem which spreads to many other spheres of life. BascoVanVeli: No the system can be changed right now.

In the midst of all that, Rohr still has to surpass Keshi though. That's the lowest bar for him with the relatively better talents at his disposal. charlesemeka85: not only corrupt but well connected politically. i bet you that if not that jonathan lost to buhari keshi would have remain as the super eagles head coach prior to his demise.
i still make jokes that sacking keshi was the only good dividends from buhari's government because if not pinnick wouldn't have had the guts to dare authorities from higher places in jona's government then who were pals with keshi.
do you have an idea of how many times pinnick tried to sack keshi but was stopped by powers beyond him?
winning the afcon turned keshi to a monster and demi god at the same time which gave him more leverage yo carry out his dubious practices without blinking in conjunction with tony harris who was the agent of almost all the deadwoods that made keshi's team on a regular basis |
Sports › Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by Joebie: 4:51pm On Nov 23, 2019 |
We are talking player management and player invitation, not tactical ability or scouting. Many of our coaches will not be able to manage the ego of some of our players, which is why they resort to players that will be LOYAL to them - often times players that know they do not deserve a place in the team. OMANBALA1: You may have missed my point. I am saying that the current set of players Rohr is working with are some of best talents in Africa and even across the world to stretch it. We agree on that but I want us all to understand and agree that the success of this very set is not in anyway rested on the tactical abilities of Rohr. He inherited those players from our "corrupt" Nigerian coaches. Keshi , Siasia , Eguavon didnt have these sort of talents,when they coached the Eagles....you know ,like Pep struggling to win matches at the Champions League without his Barcelona special talents...lol. In essence, Rohr was simply lucky-in the right place at the right time. He is not a genius! However, I think he knows how to manage players attitudes and behaviors. |

it's either you join them or leave them. You can't change the system in Nigeria as it is unless through revolution. BascoVanVeli: Tell our government to stop bribery. Why should everyone be forced to leave just to make it when we have a league?
I personally don't care who coaches because at the end of the day we only look at results. |
Sports › Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by Joebie: 3:57pm On Nov 23, 2019 |
It's simple. Let's be a little balanced, else you will end up being in the other extreme side. List the current SE players, and those you think that should replace them. I bet you, you will not be able to replace up to 5 players. In the past, we could do this easily. OMANBALA1: So, Otigba , Ajagun , Imo etc were the players that were gonna win the world cup for Nigeria...come on, soul brother! The truth is that that era was the drought period. Dont sugarcoat anything. In reference to those players , where are they today? Their world class quality suddenly disappeared? Shouldn't we be criticizng Rohr for ignoring Onyekuru who was one of our hottest players in Europe ,while he paraded a spineless Simon. Why arent you up in arms screaming corruption ? Africans worship white people like God starting from the white Jesus in your catholic church...its deep brainwashing...lol..works like magic.
Those average players you listed up there werent gonna make any big difference and its ultimately a matter of preference. Haruna Lukman , Taye Taiwo and co were mere pretenders and we saw how they fizzled out with time. Every coach has his preferred tactics and players. If I were a coach Iwobi will be selling gala, Ndidi will sit for Zuby...my choice. |

Well, read my last few posts modified And you just echoed my opinion OMANBALA1: Let's not forget to give credit where its due. The two time a Nigerian club won the prestigious African Champions League they were led by our indigenous coaches in the person of Khadiri Ikhana MON and Okey Emordi MON. Again , the root of corruption in Nigeria cant be traced to Nigerian coaches. They work in a broken system. The government are responsible for the decay |

I have always rated his player call ups highly (80-90%), and that tells you I say things as it is. Granted sometimes wetin I go say no go sweet many here. But if I were really against this team I would have called for his sack. Rather I have always opined that if we are to go far in the WC (which is what I am really interested in) he will need a tactically sound assistant. But what is the guarantee that we will a employ a better coach if we lose him? The NFF has not been good at employing good coaches for the most part, or maybe we have just been bad at keeping coaches long enough. charlesemeka85: likewise i myself because i will boast to be one of the realest here who spit things the way they are. i am no longer a kid who's submissions are based on what is trending in the media or our football circle. atleast i am old enough to acknowledge the truth when i see one and will never back out from saying it
i have been following the super eagles right from the mid nineties and from that period till date it will be ignorant to address me as a novice in matters related to nigerian football except our female teams which i don't follow much.
no matter the hate it takes nothing from us admitting the fact that rohr have done well since taking over the coaching responsibility of the super eagles and based on my personal rating i will give him 7/10
i knew little about him and wasn't really sold out on him when the nff brought him on board but after watching his first 2 games against tanzania at home and zambia away i knew the man has something to offer which grew my confidence in him and the team.
i will be a drastic decision if the nff decide to allow him leave |

No he didn't, but nothing is stopping our indigenous coaches from making it elsewhere. if they are really good they will get jobs elsewhere. I also mentioned Shuaibu. With the bad officiating generally and other factors, how does that even encourage any coach to work well? BascoVanVeli: Did Keshi make his name in the Nigerian league? Why must the league be the excuse to every equation? |
