Congrats to him... but as interim coach, he should be ready to exit at any time.

So far to me the most successful Nigerian coach was the late Stephen Keshi of blessed memory.

What happened to the Coach that took us to the Afcon final recently?

Why the change?
The coach resigned voluntarily few days ago. He got bigger offers.

Am not surprised, this man likes being used. I can't believe he forgot quickly how they made him and Okoye the scape goat when Nigeria were knocked out by Tunisia during the previous nations cup

Any coach will perform with the current crop of players in the Super Eagles undecided . Eguavon should do better this time around after all he went to the 2021 AFCON with the 2nd team of SE without the likes of Ekong and Oshimhen and he won all his games in the group stage b4 luck was against him against Tunisia.
Any coach that avoid avoid Uzoho at the goal post will do well grin , we have the squad dept
Re: NFF Appoints Augustine Eguavoen As Interim Manager Of The Super Eagles by TheGoodJoe(m): 11:47am On Mar 02, 2024
NFF will continue jumping in circles to avoid giving Amunike the job because they know he will deliver in an immense capacity. Praying for the best for Eguavoen.

EGUAVOEN'S RÉSUMÉ AS COACH BEFORE NOW.

1️⃣. Failed to qualify the U23 team for London 2012 Olympic Games.
Performed woefully at the U23 African Nations Cup which served as the qualifying tournament for African teams to the Olympic.

2️⃣. Failed to qualify for the 2006 World Cup as Super Eagles interim coach.

3️⃣. Failed to qualify for the 2022 World Cup as Interim Coach and stepped down to Head NFF's Technical Department🙄🙄🙄

4️⃣. Performed woefully by getting us knocked out of the 2021 AFCON at the Round of 16.

What exactly are those defending MEDIOCRITY looking for to justify the agony of Eguavoen as Interim Coach again?

Please, defend with track records and let us criticize with track record that shows he has NO BUSINESS even as Technical Head, talk less of Interim Manager.

No, Eguavoen has failed before! The last time out after they sacked Gernot Rohr, he failed to qualify Nigeria for the World Cup. They want to play out the same scene again

They should have appointed Amunike. Amunike proved himself as a player, playing for Zamalek, Sporting Lisbon and Barcelona. He also proved himself as a coach when he took Osimhen, Chukwueze & Co to win the U17 World Cup, and then took lowly Tanzania to the Nations Cup.

Both as player and coach, Amunike stands above Eguavoen
Tribalism don set in.
Because you are igbo, Amunike has suddenly become better than Eguavoen

Re: NFF Appoints Augustine Eguavoen As Interim Manager Of The Super Eagles by mikuz(m): 11:51am On Mar 02, 2024
The NFF's decision to appoint Augustine Eguavoen as the Interim Manager of the Super Eagles is quite an aberration, as he doesn't seem to be a good coach.

It feels like a puzzling choice, abstruse in its reasoning and generating acrimonious discussions among fans.

The selection lacks the alacrity needed for the team's improvement, and the response from the public is ambivalent, with mixed feelings about whether it's a positive or negative move. Overall, it appears to be a peculiar and confusing decision for the team.

Eguavon ought to have developed himself to meet the demands of modern techniques in coaching. Judging from his past, he lacks the cutting edge skills to coach the SE.
It's a shame that coaches in Nigeria are not trying at all. I was surprised to see how an indigenous coach turned things around in Cote D' Voire and won the AFCON for the Ivorians when the foreign coach was sacked for sub optimal performance. A good and experienced coach can seriously impact on the success of a team, in addition to having quality players. The chances of success is more with a good coach. I saw it in Ivory Coast.
Eguavon needs to wake up and stop presenting himself as a part-time coach.

Everything about Nigeria is always lobbying and bribery.

Hmmm. Here we go again. This guy doesn't inspire confidence one bit. I don't why we refer to him as a legend when he isn't ooo. SAMSON Siasia still is the best Nigerian manager that the Super Eagles needs when he is done serving his ban.

You want someone who was guilty of corruption to take over the job because you have a bias for him.

They should make him permanent coach. We don't value our own thing here. All these foreign stuff is scam. There are local players that can do better than all these so called international players so that no access to media. Who can know that nwabali is a good homebased goal keeper
