This is just rubbish.
This is not about Finidi George's playing days. It's about his coaching and as a manager, he is a zero
As a legend of the game, we give Finidi all the respect he deserves but as a manager, he remains a complete failure and no one is wrong in pointing that out.

Just because of your bigotry hate for a topic that had nothing to do with it in the first place
Thereby displaying your stupidity and foolishness
God go help you useless man
If we should take the statistics, you yourself know that I'm very correct!

Finidi will never win African player of the year. So unfortunate. Worst still, Finidi may never make one-tenth of the kind of money Osihmen is making. The final uppercut is Finidi and almost all the local coaches need the foreign base players for stipends to survive.

If you still think Nigeria can qualify for this world cup with a local coach, you are deceiving yourself. We may need to win all the remaining 6 matches to qualify. It's better to hire Pep Guardiola on a part-time basis for this task if we really want to qualify.

Osinmhen didn't directly insult Finidi George . Na para him para for him senior... its a matter that can be settled. You all are supposed to correct him and advise him to apologise, not turning simpe comparison to casting, downcasting and down casting of your own.

For 4ks sake the guy just did an MRI which obviously meant his muscles or tissles suffered from his recent injury, why did Finidi lash so much at him

Osimhen won the African Footballer of the Year wink I am shocked that you omitted it.
It's unnecessary to compare both , one is the coach and the other the player.

Those defending him are mostly from the south east, they don't understand what we call diplomacy and politeness.

Osimehn has lost my respect and love I have for him.

He forgot how Nigerians fought for him for African player of the year.

Osimehn has not kicked a ball for Nigeria since the start of the world cup qualifiers .
Keep quiet. South East of South west?

Wetin concern south east with Osimehn matter with Finidi George
The Osimhen boy just showed he is a street boy who has no respect. Even if he was rightly angry, what he did and said were very stupid of him.. No respect for your elder. He may never reach Finidi's level in football, I know there is money today in football but he should still have some respect left in him..

what do you mean by that,you all think everything isoney,the LG Lebanese boss kidnapped,let's say God forbid oshimen gets into such situation and there are passer bys that can help him get out,but they won't because they have lost the love they have for him,this life goes pass money,I hope that sinks into your empty head?

Must tribe always get involved in everything we do in this countryhuh
At the bolded, does he know you even exist?
Why must the coach blame him directly or indirectly for Nigeria clashing out?
Good coaches win BIG matches even without their star players!
I am not supporting what Osimhen did but we must not overflog or even turn it to a tribal war!!
Nigerian youths have lost it o!!!

NB: Go and watch that Nigerian Vs Benin Republic and tell me the formation or style that coach came up with.
Permit me to say he's a learner at such a big stage and Nigeria doesn't have that patience.
Apart from Osimhen, many other players are not happy with him!!!
Re: Finidi George’s Achievements Vs Victor Osimhen Record by Henry1989: 12:30am On Jun 16, 2024
Must you all drag SouthEasterners into every bullshits you talk about?
What's the business of South-Easterners in the matter between Osimhen an Finidi?
Both are neither from the South -East so why drag us into this?
It just obvious many of you leech on every opportunity to display your envy of and hatred for South-Easterners.

You all can do better. Ndi uchu

The guy is a kid, they may not have given birth to him when Okocha played.
They fought for him to win the best player, very baseless and thoughtless talk!!
Re: Finidi George’s Achievements Vs Victor Osimhen Record by Ibime(m): 12:34am On Jun 16, 2024
Finidi is a legend and my 2nd favourite Super Eagle of all time behind Oliseh

But comparing their achievements misses the point. Osimhen accused Finidi of lying about his availability and Osimhen is correct. You may question the method by which Osimhen expressed himself, but in mitigation, nothing makes a man angrier than lying on his name.
Re: Finidi George’s Achievements Vs Victor Osimhen Record by GUNITGuy: 12:35am On Jun 16, 2024

43Ronin:
Why should osihmen apologize to someone that tried to make him take the fall for his foolish tactics? Why can't finidi man up and accept that he's not a good coach? Osihmen called finidib& told him of his injury only for finidi to say he can't beg osihmen to play. Get lost Finidi! You ruined SE chances of qualifying to WC in a row. You are worse than APC
finifi was a former player,maybe he knows these players antics of lying to be injured so they don't play...e.g Neymar and many more...so I think that's why he didn't believe him

You are a joker. Finidi was a bonafide starter for both Super Eagles and the best European team of that time, Ajax.

In 1995, there was an article in a famous football publication which stated there are only two contenders for World Player of The Year, and they are both Georges - Finidi George and George Weah. George Weah ended up as WPOTY

One thing I've learnt about this VO9 vs Finidi saga is that it's better to keep quiet when one is angry, otherwise you might say things that would make you appear rude when you're overtaken by emotions... I've been in such situations a couple of times as well and most people will focus on what you said than how you feel.

The fact that he had an injury and couldn't play even if he wanted to must have made him feel the most pain and Finidi's statement was also wrong; you don't make people believe the wrong thing about others. He could've just reiterated what Osimhen said, but Finidi obviously didn't believe Osimhen had an injury and that was the genesis of all these.

VO9 is obviously a down-to-earth guy, but he allowed his emotions get the best of him and came through in an unusual way. Life goes on...
how do you know oshimen is a down to earth guy.....players feign injury,finidi as a former players know these antics,so that's what he thought

God1000:
Osimhen made a big mistake insulting finidi George, he shouldn't have done that, this is a big stain on him now, he should humble himself and desist from such behavior, he should not use his own mouth to destroy his career, people are watching him.
He was criticized by Finidi because he was not available for the match they lost. So Finidi could not win matches without him? Thierry Henry, Seedorf etc failed in coaching after being great players.

you have to insult everybody just to make your point, Abi? Don't forget, this same "shithole" of a country according to you brought him to the limelight. Now, who is ungrateful, you that is super intelligent can now figure it out. Nobody forces anybody to play for Nigeria. Know this, Nigeria super Eagles is a big brand any time any day.
Not everybody was insulted. Only those saying trash about him and don't forget he said ogun will kee them all so watch out when it rains. Osimhen has given his all to Nigeria. Super eagles didn't make him. His talents did. Many played in the eagles and didn't go anywhere so don't be ungrateful to those who has seen money and limelight and still decides to play for country. Just imagine those who chose to nationalize elsewhere, they'll be laughing right now and saying, na why I no play for them be this. Useless country and it's entitled people. Tueh
