Senseless statement. So is it the Nigerian born players that will make England or Germany's squad?

Don't be a dunce yourself by reducing my use of "midfielders" to midfielder. I clearly pluralised my Tots and said I have a list. Is a list of one a list at all?

I clearly dropped a small chunk of a major issue (I.e. the Midfield issue) I have always pointed out since the time of Gernot Rohr's final 2 yrs with us leading into Eguavoen's own reign of tactical one dimensionalism and all you see here is a cheap chance to totally digress into brainless discourse.

Nigerian football is again in a dark spot so abeg quote me with something more intellectually sound, and solution-laden and not this noise some of you, in here, take glory in while offering little or zero substance.
Sorry the omni-knoweth, again I apologize for making you waste your time. Has Jibola returned to action yet? Just asking o.

Fake news.

Government is planning to employ a foreign coach.
Better oohh

Some big brands should be proposed to.... funding the coach salary directly

We were doing better before the Advent of abroad born players. Our abroad born players are left over players and mediocre players. We performed well even without dominating CHAN and Champions league. I stand with Amokachi and I have said here earlier.

He won't obviously return until the summer when he leaves Huesca (he trains alone for now) and get signed by any club that wants him by then. So wait till May/June/July/August to see where he ends up.

Now go get yourself some other item to read, My Nosy Gorilla. grin

Addressing just this statement as a standalone. Note this emphasis, "standalone".

Now My son, Osimhen will easily make the Germany squad and even start for them.

Let's leave out England bcoz ain't no one benching Harry "the HurriKANE" even though Osimhen again makes a top case to be England's deputy in that role.

Wilfred Ndidi? He will definitely make both squads as well. Maybe not as a starter but definitely as a solid squad member.

So that's all.

Our problem is and has always been coach. Other African teams have foriegn players and they're doing well. Gabon used a squad of dual nationality players to beat the same Ghana we cannot beat.

Dual nationality players that play in division 2, 3 and 4 clubs in Europe are doing wonders in Africa. Yet Nigeria is playing rubbish, and you say our problem is players

Oga howhuh

Don't mind them. They don't even know where their problem is coming from.

Onuachu just scored a hat-trick yesterday, but if he should play for Nigeria tomorrow, he will still achieve nothing.

Is Onuachu a dual nationality player too or is Ghana tougher than Belgian squadshuh

Our team lacks coaching and organization. Simple.

We are not the only African teams with FB players.

Why are Cape Verde, Gabon, Morocco, Senegal,etc playing well if FB players are poor in Africahuh

Even our female National team players have been brilliant. They have US born players in the mix too.

Peter Ukeme Olawale scores for Hapoel Raanana in the Israeli Liga Leumit. His team leads 2-1

It's his 7th league goal in 27 league games (18 starts).

Recall Olawale belongs to the 2019 U17 Class.

It's sad records by The Yak and Osaze Odemwingie are still standing. Lol. One good reflection of our football in over 12yrs.

Copied:
Yakubu Aiyegbeni

First African to score a UEFA Champions League hat trick (2002)

Most Premier League hat tricks for an African (4)

Youngest African to score a UEFA Champions League hat trick (19 years)

First Player to score against all 20 PL teams

Top Nigerian PL scorer (95)



Of course, if e easy, do am. But these guys made it look easy.

Warris happening??

Funny how this report partly shows a glimpse of what I already knew.

Eguavoen and Amunike were clearly not in sync with each other. Eguavoen didn't listen. This is why I say this loss is majorly on him.

Amunike did complain about Dennis' unwillingness to track back/track a man and truly it is that one moment of lackadaisicality that earned Ghana the throw-in, in the first place. Then from the same throw-in, Dennis again didn't track his man.

Abeg, I have read and seen enough. Eguavoen is a true dunce.

And Ghana actually switched to a 4-5-1 at the beginning of the second half. The DM dropped back to the back four to make it 5 at the back leaving 4 in the middle and only Afena up front in case of a quick counter.

Inability to read opponent tactical switches and then not being in tactical sync with your assistants further exposes Eguavoen for the one dimensional dummy he is as a coach. Tufiakwa!!!!
Eguavoen is not a dunce... Eguavoen and Amunike were in sync stop trying act as if Amunike wasn't part of the coaching crew.. Eguavoen, Amunike and the coaching staff all failed...

the thing you should say is Eguavoen is a typical adult Nigerian who must have things done his way and other opinions are nonsense... A lot of people on this thread also have the same mentality..
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by TheSuperNerd(m): 7:34pm On Apr 04, 2022
Oga, he is a DUNCE!!! A BIG TACTICAL DUNCE!!! And there is nothing you can do to change that. Period.

And ofcoz Eguavoen and Amunike weren't in sync. You can try all you want to rope them all together but the smart observant ones unlike the gullibles and agenda folks know that Egu acted alone as the boss and didn't obviously take most of Amunike's tactical suggestions on board. It is on Egu. Coz what he did is exactly what he did at the Afcon. No difference.

I remember them when they were in Everton Academy quite a few years ago.

It could be said they were given access on account of Amokachi. They were released Everton, just not good enough to be diplomatic.

He has tried to open many doors for them but they have never been able to rise to the occasion. Not surprisingly they are playing Local football.

Amokachi unfortunately is part off the rot and decay that corruption has caused the NFF to be where it is today.

Let's start with England.

Not one of the current players in the SE are going to make the bench, that's the reality.

So what's exactly your point, calling quality players left overs because of they didn't make the English team.

Then to add insult to injury garnished with blatant prejudice you call them Mediocre.

Then in the same vein you will call KC one the best finishers in world. You are highly misguided.

OGN has their moments when they are wrong, right, half wrong, half right.

I hope this is one of those totally wrong moments. Oliseh ke?? Same man who ended Enyeama's career with us? Same man who disrespected Mikel obi's place in the team??

Heeeiii... Abeg nau. Some never still recover from the WC Ticket loss and Oliseh's previous reign of chaos as our coach.

I know he is kinda tactically sound as he showed that with Fortuna Sittard contributing to their promotion to the Dutch Eredivisie but abeg... Man is a temperamental nuclear bomb. Man management is not his thing and I don't know how much he's improved in that aspect.

I don't trust this Oliseh fellow. Tactically maybe I can a little but as a man manager?? Even Rohr is a better man manager than this man.

Nna why are the people at the helm of affairs bent on extending our chaos like this? Na only we waka come into nadir boulevard? Haba
Oliseh is the kind of coach that will give you results, unfortunately such coaches are not loved, because people find them too strict. No player is bigger than the team, you either play to instructions or court the bench. A big player player like Emmanuel Dennis, might not play under Oliseh, and people are gonna hate Oliseh for that.

NFF might not handle a tactically sound coach, be it a native or foreigner because they will find the personnel difficulty to control.

NFF will also find it difficult to hire a foreign coach that is tactically savvy as Oliseh.

I'm not disputing the fact that we have been victim of poor coaching and management.
My stand is running after all these half-baked(I call them half-baked cos they couldn't even make the original team) FBs under the guise that we don't have quality player should stop. Our problem is coaching not players.
Running after FBs while we have the homegrown ones is kind of discouraging.
After all, correct me if I'm wrong but I'm not sure there was a single FB in the squad that won our last AFCON.
The bottom line is that these FBs won't give you the level of commitment and passion you want compared to the homegrown players.
