ok, this your new crop where you wan go harvest them from since you don’t like European super stars

AndSunGorilla:
Largerbeer was good too, but he spent a very short time. His team really played well if not for Yakubu and Kaita who decided to show their own craze

But make we tell ourselves the truth, the NFF can't afford a top quality coach now. As for me, we can find a young low budget coach ready to build his cv. Like when Renard was still coaching Zambia, right now, we no fit afford am.

jihday:
already retired by 98

I doff my hat to the Carthage Eagles. They exceeded expectations. In a game where they were expected to lose, coming away with a point is huge. Final day of group stage will be Interesting.

andrewbaba44:
They where so good in everything ,from defense to GK

The danish defense was also good that’s why we didn’t see a Tunisia win

Now watch how Morocco will do against Croatia tomorrow

Ogochuks101:
Big 1 point for Tunisia. They just need to beat Australia in their next match.

Samueltemi337:
And when France lose to Australia?

daveP:
If we arrange friendly with this Saudi team. sE go colet 4 like.
Simon go wan exchange Jersey with Aldawsari
Uzoho go dey laugh after 90mins

Odunayaw:
And for the lots who think it's all about "stars" and leagues

Pray tell, what did you learn from today's matches so far

I saw Saudi and Tunisia playing their game with confidence and not reaction

andrewbaba44:
The painful thing is that our star studded super eagles might not score a single goal against Argentina

They will be twerking for Messi and co

Odunayaw:
Andrew I was very impressed with the Saudis

They executed their plans. Why? Because they had plans

Our guys are a reflection of the tactical nous of our coaches

Na from player selections we take de know say our coach no get plans

AndSunGorilla:
Did you watch the Mexico vs Hb nigeria game? It was an eyesore!!!! I repeat what we have is a coaching problem, simple. A good coach will use what he has or find what he needs, that's all!!! Westerhoff decided he wasn't going to use Owubokiri or Obiku in those days despite their great performances. Westerhoff decided Yekini would bench an england based Efan Ekoku, he decided an inform Nwanu is better than an experienced Keshi. Keshi also decided to go with an inexperienced Omeruo/Oboabona over Yobo and countless other examples in his title winning quest. I strongly believe if we have the right coach, I don't care if the person is a foreigner or Nigerian, we would achieve great things either with these same set of players or new additions in some areas.

Your head dey dia. I recently heard our VP do like a karaoke of Asake's song, then I went to hear the song. Our answer is in that song,
Organize, every other day I organize
Some of us are wise every other day we organize

I rest my case.

Jay Jay has polished up, am really impressed with his expressions and use of English, so proud of him
Meanwhile, the pidgin english commentators crack me up especially the lady, she's hilariously good, kudos to them

elyte89:
Dem don declare holiday for Saudi Arabia

E reach abeg,wetin Nigeria no fit do five diff times meeting argies,

Mujtahida:
We learnt that you cannot bank on a one off result to make the argument you are advancing. When Saudi Arabia consistently wins with this crop of players, then maybe you can advance this argument and even at that the question is would Saudi Arabia pick these players if it has players littered all over the elite leagues in Europe? Brazil is your answer.

I tell you bro

I am very sure we would have lost today had we met them

Like, I can stake N50k on it

AndSunGorilla:
Deschamps na crase man, just realized he didn't replace injured Benzema, which kain stubbornness ne dat? When asked basis for not replacing Benzema, he say ma my decision

Yes he has achieved results no doubt, took an unfancied Monaco to UCL finals and won a WC but men I no just gbadun the guy. Last WC he took Mendy for a tourist trip, person wey dey injured, na wa.

Odunayaw:
The point I was driving at was that it doesn't take stars and top leagues to carry out a good plan.

Not just Saudi but Tunisia.

These matches is an indictment on our football because it is either our players are too blockheaded to interpret and play their coach's plan

Or the coach is pretty clueless and has no plans

Which do you think
