TheGoodJoe:
I just feel it is unprofessional and insulting to make people waste their time applying for the job, while sticking with the person on the job. I hope it never repeats itself.

Completely agree

Marjoribanks:
We need a coach who has not been corrupted by the Nigerian system!

A coach who won't fold under pressure.
Definitely not someone who is afraid of losing ordinary friendly matches by playing just 13 players out of 25. Incredible!

Completely agree
Hopefully he has learnt his lessons

Well said, summary of Super Eagles Coaching Drama, as culled from Nigerian Sports Journalists.

1) NFF waiting until May to announce new coach to avoid paying April salary
https://twitter.com/FisayoDairo/status/1783790269961306319

2) Coach will be an indigenous coach (because of funding issues), but sadly won't be Emmanuel Amuneke.
https://twitter.com/OgaNlaMedia/status/1784825148027118046

3) George Finidi and Daniel Amokachi likely to be amongst assistants
https://owngoalnigeria.com/2024/04/29/breaking-nff-board-reject-choice-of-amuneke-as-super-eagles-coach-picks-another-nigerian/

4) Thus Coach most likely to be Ndubuisi Egbo (Ex Super Eagles fringe Goalkeeper, currently coaching in Kosovo, or Michael Nsien (Ex U23 player, currently US U19 boys Head Coach)

Point 1 is kinda smart
Lol

elyte89:




My pick is ndubuisi egbo from day 1 ,judging by their cvs

If its by CV, Egbo trumps all others
The guy no be their mate

Westham interested in Victor Boniface..
Guy should stay put in Germany abeg

forgiveness:


E go score tire because Conte believes in a target man. Meaning, all balls will be directed to him.

Lets go then..

forgiveness:


No, Conte like em type. He only needs to be consistent with the in ..ala because crossing go plenty.

Fingers crossed then..
Another Top scoring season loading?
Time will tell..

Samueltemi337:
It favoured him at Lille

I don't remember how Lille played while he was there

casualobserver:


There was a time many years ago when the AC in my room was on 24/7 whether I was home or not. The tarrif increase before this one was when I stopped. I live in an area with stable electricity and electricity was very cheap.

I also remember when I was a child that my dad always left the AC in his office on.

So to that point the minister has a point that subsidizing electricity had inculcated bad habits in us as a people. The example he gave about freezer was a bad one. 1 because a lot of freezers don’t actually consume much power and 2 AC is the real power guzzler. When I lived abroad then no born me to leave ordinary light bulb on if I am not in the room talk less leave the house heater on when I am out. Same with petrol…the way I drove abroad with expensive petrol was different from In Nigeria with cheap petrol.

Subsidies do indeed create bad habits.

I completely agree with you..
I currently use a Solar System that can gives me 100W of energy for 10hrs if fully charged
This has made me somewhat energy efficient..
I turn off bulbs not in use, same with fans and other appliances..

I got the Solar System when the Electricity situation was very bad this year...
When it improved a bit, my new habits of energy efficiency kicked in..
Any appliances not in use are turned off
This has also saved me money because the last time I bought units on my meter was in February and I only bought 5k

If we all become a little bit more proactive with saving energy, we will cut off a lot of unnecessary costs..

forgiveness:


Conte!!! Keep possession?

Kick and inshalla na em Conte sabi.

In that case, make he run oh!!!

comodo:

Goal conversion 22% No that's very poor I must say. Meaning he throws away78% of his chances?

Yes it's poor because most of the time he's running too much
This definitely affects his strike and conversion rate
If the team can keep possession more and he doesn't have to run as much, his conversion rate will improve..

If you watch the clip Chriskels posted, all the balls he got, he had to do some running to get away from the defender, many times to a difficult angle..
So his shots were either parried by the keeper or went out of play..

A good Coach would work on that

opes:


Four more. He is currently 3rd on the top Scorers table, 14 goals from 22 matches.

That Inter Milan team is something..
3 players in the Top 8 Scorers List means they are doing a lot of things right..
Kudos to the coach and players
Let's hope they turn up in the UCL next season..

do4luv14:



What he did to both Mikel and Vicmo is giving me mixed feelings, particularly as VO is a strong headed Guy

He improved Vicmo though
But I completely understand you

comodo:

My good brother. What is staring us in the face is sabotage. We can either agree or continue playing the ostrich as usual. History is about repeating itself. If NFF could afford a foreign coach, we for don get coach since. Sports ministry wants to have a say on who to be appointed since na dem go foot d bill. NFf no gree. That's the merry go round. Las las world cup will be sabotaged. Then at the end a foreign coach will be appointed.

Hmmm...
Fingers crossed
Highest we miss the world cup
Everybody go rest
😅😅

do4luv14:



Conte is a good Coach, but I had a mixed feeling about this

Yeah, me too
But I just don't see any club that's really serious about signing Victor for now..
But Conte is a serial winner, so mixed feelings

Kog45:
Good that he took the penalty

Yes o
Let's hope he can deliver 4 more goals before season ends
I think he works too much in that team
Too much running which ends up affecting his conversion rate
A team that keeps possession would help him more.. Think Spalletti last season
If he stays, maybe Conte can fix that..

elyte89:



But come to think of it..even d d coach was appointed earlier dis month or now,d coach will have just 3 to 4days to train d invited players…Abi is dere any difference?

I understand your point Chief
It's generally better to do things early
So the new Coach can start early, but I kinda agree with you, maybe no much difference

ChrisKels:


How many matches do we have left before the season ends because I really want him to get up to 20goals this season.

4 i think

comodo:

Like I have said. History has shown that issues like this always occur whenever they want to appoint a local coach. Don't be surprised that the match will be pushed to Abuja or Kano and kick off time will be 2pm. The country no dey shock me again. A country where a president voted against his country. A country that took players that came in during winter to Hot Kano sun for a crucial WCQ. The same country did same for AFCON qualifier. Country that took it's U20 players to water logged and potopoto pitch to play a crucial qualifier match. A country that told it's coach that he needs outright win whereas a draw is enough. All because they want the man in the dug out to fail. Nothing dey shock me again. The in coming coach has been set up to fail. He needs nothing but a miracle.

Bros be calming down na abeg

The good thing is, we have players now who atleast are fighters, regardless of who the coach turns out to be
We would still need a miracle to qualify, no doubt

ChrisKels:
Victor Osimhen against Roma was fire.

https://twitter.com/EaglesTrackerNG/status/1784736177221714015?t=-NtqiAKs6aj0MiecEjGZTA&s=19

Man was immense yesterday
More voices coming in

Kog45:
Pls Oga Ibrich,just forget that road and let’s talk more on something important,not Osimhen and Tammy comparisons that’s staled…..Osimhen don japa leaving Tammy behind

Yes o Egbon,
Oganla reports on X that NFF executive committee just met for the first time yesterday to discuss our Coach issue.. hmm

He also reports that they have selected a local coach and will make an official statement this week..


This our Coach situation na.. " the more you look, the less you see.."

It would take a miracle for us to qualify for the world cup

komekn:


When I don't join you in this FANATICAL over hype it's called hate. VO did all this and scored one penalty your whole epistle of praise simply doesn't add up.

I noticed Tega has just come back from an ACL injury after nearly a whole season out with injury. Comes on as a substitute and scores. That's not easy 😞 coming from such a series injury.

Trust me mate, you don't want to go on this road with me..

ChrisKels:
Victor Osimhen against Roma was fire.

https://twitter.com/EaglesTrackerNG/status/1784736177221714015?t=-NtqiAKs6aj0MiecEjGZTA&s=19

My goodness!
What a player!!

Everything you want in a number 9..

Speed, strength, agility
Strong hold up play
Excellent movement and use of space..
Brought others into the game
Took his penalty excellently
Forced the opposition defense into making mistakes

If his teammates were a little more prolific, he would have had like 2 assists...
The header to set up Anguissa was too sweet abeg..
The cross to Kvara was top class as well..

Osimhen too good abeg!

Part of me wants him to stay one more season in Napoli with Conte
Part of me wants him to move to the PL

Lookman grabs the second goal for Atalanta

humility33:


You guys will mislead this guy to ruin his career.

Same Napoli the fans were all insulting him on their facebook page few days ago during an interview he answered questions in English

You need to see the hate and bitterness in their comments

I will advise him to leave even if it is to go back to France

It doesnt work that way Chief
There has to be offers on the table first
All we've heard so far are rumors

victornoah:
K. Nwakali scores!

Even though they lost 3-1, he (Nwakali) had the highest rating (7.7) for Chaves

Chaves are sure candidates for relegation
We hope a decent club picks him up this summer
I hope he's done enough to get a move

Conte taking over at Napoli in the summer
3 year deal..

Question:
Should Victor Osimhen stay and work with him, or should he leave if the opportunity arises?

Kog45:
Read my line very,FA said they are broke and asked ministry to assist then who dictate.

How are they broke?
These guys got $4M for AFCON Silver just a few months ago
No one is asking what they did with the money
Those guys are not as broke as they are trying to make everyone believe
They are trying to eat their cake and have it

$4M may not be so much but it can atleast get some things started

Moffi with a goal..

Ndidi scores again..

Philosopher1979:


Players like Olisah ndah and ibrahim olawoyin might be better than some of these top 5 league players but people will not agree.
The scouting system is not always perfect.

Completely agree

But las las Naija will not cease to amaze everyone. Na interest first before patriotism. How the guyman name just popped up from nowhere go tell u say d game strong.

Lol
