TheGoodJoe:Maybe you lack comprehension. Because you seem to have a different definition of the English language word "Mockery" that you created by yourself. Instead of conceding that your claim is SIMPLY UNTRUE you continue with this charade. |

mostob:there won't be no trouble everyone knows their role and they are both humble men's who where once team mates and Eguavoen is the boss here but won't show it because the man is way respectful than you can ever imagine even the journalist who do interview him gives testimony about how simple and respectful he his to people around him and amunike is simply same ![]() |

komekn: I can see so much honor in your write up. It is simple logic, he can get better deals outside Europe. I am proud of him that Kelechi Nwakali is willing to work his way up. How that is biting you, baffles me. |

TheGoodJoe:You talking NONSENSE. Football is a very short term career that can be fickle. That's why players run out their contracts unless another club offers much more or similar. Which mad person is going to give Nwakali £11k a week when he has done Absolutely nothing in 6/7 years in European football. |

komekn: Were you his agent to know if Nwakali had offers or not? You are quick to rant as if you know it all but you actually talk about things you have zero knowledge of. It is easy to market him for a decent wage outside Europe. His choosing to take that cut shows determination to get it right. It is not how many times the guy fails that matters. Leave all that your short career talk. You said the same for Iheanacho and Osimhen but they have enough time to still pick themselves up. Bother about your fanzones picking their careers. The guy is okay and working his way up. |

TheGoodJoe:My approach has remained consistent. He did not deserve to be in the SE selection, it is blatant Favouritism, Nepotism and corruption. When there are hundreds of more deserving Nigerian players across Europe. I don't compromise on merit you do. |

komekn: My point has always been that you are so full of yourself and talking as if you have an idea of things you do not know. Increase your teachability index. You claim knowledgeable of things you have no idea of. What do you know about players compared to coaches that have direct contact with these players? Salisu is a fan of this kid. Eguavoen said it openly that he is a fan of the kid. Amunike called Nwakali a gift to football. Then you who have not played professional football, let alone coached even departmental class will come up screaming as if you know more than them. Sometimes, you chill and learn. You do not always run your mouth as if you know all. That is how the Chidera Liverpool trial came on and you tried to run it down. Talking as if you have a tenth of the ideas of scouting players for Europe than one of the big wits like Babawo Mohammed. Even I was pissed at the appointment of Eguavoen, but I had to chill and study what he is doing. All our coaches can not be wrong. If they feel Nwakali can help, sometimes chill and learn. The kid was brilliant when he came on. Beyond even my own expectation. Yet you are running nepotism, corruption. As if you are not one of the most biased persons I have ever met on Nairaland. These guys know more than you. CHILL. |

komekn: Shouting Liar will not change plain logic. Are you saying his agents will not get a higher wage if they market him outside Europe? You know it is true. So calling me a liar will not change the truth. As for you, you do not know about the offers that took place behind the deal. |

charlesemeka85:Rumor. It is not true. Speaking on Amunike, Eguavoen said that the former international turned coach is a man close to his heart. “He has been my good friend for a very long time. ” He has been my brother and we have worked together for a long time. “He’s a quality addition to the coaching crew and he will bring a lot of value to the Super Eagles,” he said. https://independent.ng/choice-of-amunike-will-add-value-to-super-eagles-eguavoen/ |

TheGoodJoe:At best you spend 3/4 weeks with your national team coaches. But you spend years with your club coaches and let's not forget ,it is your outstanding consistent top quality performances that get you selected for national service. Not your relationship with the NFF Godfatherism policy. I know a few of the coaches at Arsenal ( you may think it's untrue) Like some who were at Crystal palace before going to Arsenal. Most have real integrity like Gilliard . They essentially found him well below the Mark. So all the coaches and scouts in the clubs and leagues he played at across Europe were blind. You are TOO ASSUMPTIVE not every coach in the NFF agreed with his selection. But this is the NFF riddled with politics , Godfatherism, vested interests and corruption. As a result ,l will not have too much faith in the decisions of the NFF where players are concerned. |

TEACHABILITY INDEX I will like to talk about this briefly. When I was watching the tactical philosophy video of Eguavoen, I heard him make a statement I considered outrageous. He called SUNDAY OLISEH the BEST MIDFIELDER in the world at that time. I was like no way. Off-the-top of my head, I could call Dunga, Albertini, Mauro Silva, Frank Rijkaard, and a host of others. But, I chilled and decided to do some research. The perfect defensive midfield player – Sunday Ogochukwu Oliseh By Segun Odegbami It was July 24, 1993. I remember that day like yesterday. It was an African Cup of Nations qualifying match against the Walias of Ethiopia. The Super Eagles won very easily, a high scoring 6-0 victory. What caught the eye particularly on that day, was this prodigious young player who was making his debut appearance for the Green Eagles. For 90 minutes he gave a virtuoso performance. On that day the search for a worthy successor for the ‘irreplaceable’ Mudashiru Babatunde Tiamiyu Lawal at the defensive midfield position, Number 4, ended. That Clemens Westerhof gave a debutant the opportunity to start in a position that was one of the most technical in any team, that required special traits and talents, meant that the player must be good. On that fateful day, I watched a performance such as I had not seen before then, nor probably since. If near perfection was possible in football, that was it. Oliseh hardly put a foot wrong on his debut for Nigeria. He put up what must go down as a masterclass on defensive midfield play. His every touch and move were flawless. He tackled intelligently and cleanly. He shielded the ball effectively when in possession. He did not hold on to the ball unnecessarily, releasing it quickly and with deadly precision. He delivered short and long passes with both feet. He had an effective dribble and shot well from a distance. His transition with the ball from defense to attack was slick and a beauty to watch. After his limited forays upfront, he returned quickly to be in the first line of defense when the team lost possession. Was he playing from instinct or following the coach’s instruction? Either way, it was a perfect interpretation. The greatest beneficiary of his immaculate display was marksman, Rashidi Yekini, who was in his full element on the day, capitalising on the brilliant passes lofted from Oliseh’s feet as if measured with a tape and delivered safely onto his running path behind the Ethiopian defenders that did not know what hit them, until they had produced 3 of the 6 un-answered goals that were scored on that day. At the end of that match in 1993, my conclusion was that a tape of Sunday Oliseh’s performance on that day needed to be produced and distributed to all football schools and academies worldwide, for a perfect demonstration of the art of defensive midfield play. It was indeed a masterclass. What I am saying is that it is good and refreshing to debate. Sometimes, you listen and learn. If I did not pay attention to Eguavoen, I would have missed this important detail. I went on a journey studying Oliseh. That was why I posted that clip of him, I think in Belgium. So, sometimes it is not about arguing but also learning. You can miss much if you do not learn. I watched Oliseh a lot but never knew he was that good. Those excerpts came from Segun Odegbami. FINITO. |
