At the end of the day, keshi won an ANC and qualified us for the R16 on his first attempt and posterity will remember him for such. If our present coach can match or exceed such result by receiving bribes or fielding backwater league players, I will accept 2 Likes |

TheGoodJoe:Stop arguing with them because they will not understand. Sometimes being good enough is not enough,some factors are considered like commitment. Keshi chose players that were ready to lay down their lives on the pitch which some players are ready to do 6 Likes 2 Shares |

charlesemeka85: Did you see instigation? Those big players had poor attitude. That was it. Keshi could see through them. So as much as you praise their stats, their loyalty indices were low and they had to go.

andrewbaba44: That is why I used to tell people. When it comes to Keshi, forget what you know. Ameobi who was a washed up and finished player, pulled a master class against Italy and was the man of the match. Even Alan Pardew, Newcastle coach had to bring Ameobi back in the squad. Just shun, the Big Boss is Too Much. 1 Like

jihday: That was why Okpala exposed Taiwo that he was lying and was removed for Mutiny. Taiwo never knew that Keshi got wind of what he was planning. And saw him and his cohorts out of the team. Okpala had to make it public for Taiwo to know that Keshi heard of his plans and that was why he was dropped. Not dirty deals. 2 Likes |

TheGoodJoe:Oga pls let's talk about our WC qualifier match against Ghana....Stephen Okechucwu Keshi is late and he will be remembered for winning Afcon as a player and as a coach,reaching WC second round,first to captain Super eagles to WC,longest serving captain 1984-1994....a player that was banned from national team and NPFL by Anthony Ikhazobo for playing for New Nigeria bank in Wafu cup final but couldn't make it to camp on a deadline date.He ran away to Ivory coast and was signed by stade of Abidjan when he thought he had no hope.He move to Belgian league from Ivory coast to sign for Lokeren and moved to giant Anderlecht after a season.The first Nigerian to play in any major European cup final,against Sampdoria....Stephen Keshi didn't for once criticized NFA for his expelled from football in Nigeria.He made it possible for the likes of Austin Eguavoen,Samson Siasia,Ademola Adeshina,Osaro Obabaifo,Andrew Uwe and many more to come to Belgium for Pro career....The highest Super eagles defender with goals till date. He has done well no matter how some would like to paint him bad....till today no Nigeria player ex or active love Nigeria Super eagles than Stephen Okechucwu Keshi. I challenge anyone to come out where Stephen Okechucwu Keshi was indicted for bribery. RIP the Big boss. 9 Likes 1 Share |

This thing reminds me of my friend's younger brother. The boy was so good. Brilliant creative midfielder and scores wonder goals. First thing about this boy is his dada hair. Long and bushy. If you see him bounce on the road, you will think Messi polishes his boot every morning. After a while, his coach dropped him from the team and the brother was mad. None of the players could lace his brother's shoes. The brother was head and shoulders above them in talent. The elder brother went to the coach to confront him. The coach explained. Look around you. These boys working in my house are his team mates. They cut grass, fetch water, go to the market and even help me sell some of my business goods. On the field, they listen to every word I say. They come very early to the pitch before me, and clean up after I leave. Your brother has refused to cut his dada ![]() The coach pleaded that he was tired and that the brother can go with his MessiX2. 3 Likes |

andrewbaba44:oga Andrew...Thegoodjoe is right on this one please. Very spot on. Every coach has a particular kind of players that suit their ideology and tactics. For Keshi, he selected players which he knew would deliver for him and he got the AFCON trophy and Round of 16 in WC. However,I'm not disputing the fact that some local coaches are corrupt but in Keshi's case, he is justified. 3 Likes |

charlesemeka85:Auba was Arsenal's best goalscorer..he delivered the FA cup almost singlehandedly bro...he is now at Barca simply because he fell out with the coach.
