Wow report and counter report

Hope this guy is not using us to get a call up to the national team
In the next few months we'll Know. Buh it seems there might be truth in the report. But if he decides to stick with Denmark, good luck to him. He wouldn't bench Ndidi anyways

Sports Ministry Wants Former Tottenham Boss As Eagles Coach

By Ibrahim Taiwo , The Nigerian Voice Sports
Listen to article
Amidst the uncertainty surrounding the contract renewal of Gernot Rohr, top officials of the Ministry of Youth and Sports Development has identified former Tottenham Hotspurs manager, Harry Redknapp, to take over from Gernot Rohr.
Sports Minister, Mr Sunday Dare in a video made available to newsmen revealed that he wanted a competent manager to handle the Super Eagles whether it is Rohr or not.

Dare said, “All I want is a coach that is competent, I don’t care whether it is Rohr or not. The name doesn’t matter, but does he have the credentials?
“Look at our footballers, they play in some of the best clubs in the world and are coached by some of the best coaches.

“So if you want to coach a Nigerian team, you better be sound because the invited players that are going to represent the country train under the best coaches, therefore, we don’t want a player that is sounder than the coach.”

However, the NFF Executive Committee in a meeting held via video conferencing on Thursday, mandated its General Secretary Mohammed Sanusi, to liaise with the Super Eagles’ coach, Gernot Rohr, with a view to putting to rest all matters around his contract within the next seven days.

But according to a top football stakeholder, who spoke on condition of anonymity to the Punch, he revealed that even though Rohr was about sealing a new deal with the NFF, the ministry was looking at Redknapp taking over as coach of the Eagles in the coming days.

His words “He (Rohr) is expected to get another contract offer from the NFF as there are other likely conditions included in the deal to be sent to him today (Monday),”

“But if he (Rohr) doesn’t accept the new offer, it will pave the way for the ministry’s preferred candidate Redknapp; he is highly rated by the ministry officials, even though some feel he may be too old for the Eagles job and hasn’t had a coaching job for about three years.”

Redknapp, 73, last managed at Birmingham City in 2017 but was sacked after five straight league defeats, which left the Blues second bottom in the English Championship table.
Pls o leave our Gernot Rohr. I think Rohr will stay nevertheless

Saka rejects Nigeria.
Good one. Much ado about nothing. Ebere Eze next!
We should learn to appreciate what we have. Iwobi, Ejaria, Aribo. Some people were already benching Iwobi for Eze. grin grin

England will likely call up Saka for their next friendly and he will accept.

I'll engage you on this.

Segun paid his dues. Okay, no debating that. But that doesn't give him the right to impugn on the achievements of Rohr and his players. I criticized Rohr during the EC and the last AFCON. And my criticisms were merited. I don't resort to attacking the coach/player personally like Segun does. If you note, I warned against the inclusion of Mikel in the last AFCON and many unintelligent people here assumed I had a personal grudge against him but I turned out to be right at the end of the day.
Yeah almost everyone has criticized Rohr at some point particularly because of his inability to make subs at the right time buh he's done very well since. I'm also not in support of most of Segun Odegbami statements but I just choose to ignore most because of his status in Nigerian football

Blueelf:
Na Segun you suppose dey ask this question.

You still haven't answered my question.

We all know that Segun was only good enough for the local scene and couldn't even win AF champions league or even CAF player of the year. I wonder what his agenda is for downplaying Rohr. You self think am
He won the CAF Cup Winners cup and was nominated for the African Player of the year twice. And by the way when he played African players barely played in Europe. So it's very unfair to use that against him really. And also less qualifying slots were available to African countries at the world cup(I think about one or two). He's still one of Nigeria's greatest player and after so many years he's the second highest goal scorer for the national team. He might not be saying the right things but please Don't undermine his achievements

Rabah Madjer easily comes to mind.

Segun odegbami is an overhyped legend and a Yoruba elder who lacks discretion in speech and conduct. Simple!!!

He couldn't even feature in a single WC as a player yet he tramples on Rohr's achievements as if he could have done 1/4 of the Job Rohr did

The thing is, Iwobi does not have the mindset of a professional footballer, he doesn't train, he has a poor cardio, he is more interested in being a celebrity than being a footballer

Do we look like children to you? grin
To be fair on him though he has always said he preferred Ejaria.


Both have thier strengths and weakness. While Eze is better when it comes to scoring, Ejaria is better when it comes to his work rate
