If Nigeria doesnt make it through,then NFF must be mad for making such a clueless delusional decision. Has it gotten to this ..

Naysayers should keep shut. Same Mali once gave our hero Stephen Okechukwu Keshi, a gaffer job .
Tanzania gave Amuneke a gaffer job

Togo also do same to Keshi

Nothing is ordinary if we play same good cards to one of the best coach on the continent. Let's give this young man a chance to proof a point once and for all and for the good of the continent.

COMRADES, with this appointment, are we moving forward as country/ football nation or moving backwards?
Exactly. That's my question.

The players are bonding well with Eguavoen and super eagles Team B coaches. Bringing this man at this time will change the chemistry and cohesion of the team. We may lose out.

They should have allowed our coaches to finish the job of qualifications before hiring another coach. The players says they're playing for the coaches and committed to the national team.

With arrival of this man, things will go wrong with the team and we may not qualify for the world cup.

Bye Bye to the world cup!

But Why does Amaju Pinnick continues to interfere in Nigerian football. He tenure has passed and he continues to dictate the tune.

Amaju Pinnick should be called to order.

Dear Mommy and Daddies, please am not a scammer, I can prove everything I say here beyond all doubt! i won't be doing this if only there's a glimmer of hope. please forgive me, but it seems that I have no choice. I'm typing this with tears in my eyes and with a very heavy heart. I'm doing this for my little girl who is asthmatic, I have exhausted my savings to buy her Seretide inhaler but at this point it has become too expensive to afford. I work two jobs to provide for my family but it never seem to be enough and as it stands I have exhausted all channels with which I can borrow money to buy it. It is sold for 18,500 but anything we can lay our hands on is perfectly okay please. Even 1k will go a long way to keep my baby girl alive please. Please my family, am on my knees, I am pleading for assistance to save my daughters life. I beg you in God's name please.. Any well meaning Nigerian whom God has touched their heart to help us, please help us. May the Almighty GOD bless all you lay your fingers on, amen.

Is this the world class manager NFF hired?
What an insult to all the nigerian coaches!
Exactly.

It's the handiwork of Amaju Pinnick who is obsessed with hiring foreign coaches to cash out.

This is an insult to Nigerian coaches.

It's the handiwork of Amaju Pinnick. Ñot Ibrahim Gusau who is the current chairman of NFF. He is a stooge of Amaju Pinnick.

What has this one accomplished?

NFF and their addiction to foreign coach…Mali don turn to abroad abi?
Oho...ask them!

Nigeria is now a butt of laughter.

It's just like Brazil recruiting a coach from Peru or Venezuela to tinker their national team.

What an insult.

I am ashamed!

NFF = No Future Ambition

This appointment is strictly based on well guided salary sharing formula. Nigeria and "kwaruption" is like 5 and 6.

Why not give the job to our local coaches than this dude with no pedigree?

I like him. He is African and we should start believing in African coaches. Mali is a good soccer nation. Chelle can get us the World Cup ticket.
Re: NFF Appoints Éric Chelle As Super Eagles Head Coach by Umuinyioku: 11:48pm On Jan 07, 2025
Federal government should not allow this appointment stay.

The new coach was fired by Mail on social media last year. And he's not better than Ammuneke, Eguavoen and other seasoned local coaches who qualified us for AFCON (CHAN) recently.

The only reason one could adduce for this appointment is to allow sharing formula between the coach and NFF officials. It Is not based on competence or pedigree of the coach. Nor out of patriotism.

This appointment has implication for us as a football nation. We are highly rated in African and world football. Mali, where this man hails from, doesn't near us an inch in football history. Nigeria is always ahead of Mali in rating.

Yet,he is appointed to tinker our national Team! This could be likened to Brazil going for a coach in Peru or Paraguay to tinker their national team. It doesn't make sense or could add value to their football.

Nigeria is now a butt of laughter to football community. It's disgraceful and embarrassing.

The players are already bonding well with our local coaches. Bringing this man at this moment will altar the chemistry and cohesion of the team. It may likely bring confusion because of pedigree of the coach.

This appointment Must be stopped.

The players will not be committed to him. And this is a recipe for failure,anarchy.

Bye bye to world cup qualification!😭

It’s just a big shame that the NFF have stopped so low and degrading to give us someone like this..! To be honest, why do these guys just bring any Tom Dick and Harry to take over SUPER EAGLES? What is even his Pedigree in the first place? Chaai, na so we carry miss World Cup sha, that one na confirmed.

A coach took us to final of AFCON , he was not called but someone that took his team to only quarter final from another country was called ..
Make Una continue...

I don't know why we like picking from the back seat ...
Genort Rhor ( abi wetin be him name ) would've better off this one ..

Or the last nation cup coach that took the guys to the final ...

Hmmm, something of note, I watched the last afcon, and I kinda admire the Malian team a bit they played some technical football, they may not have gone far at the tournament, maybe with Nigeria's massive talent he can turn things a bit around, even though his profile isn't inspiring, furthermore, our major focus right now is a world cup ticket, and our opponents are fellow African teams, having someone who has played on the continent and understands African football play, style and pattern may just come in handy than bringing a European coach who may probably need time to understand the African football terrain, note also we don't have the liberty to lose anymore games at the qualifiers as we are almost at the bottom of the table.
Mali played brilliant football.

African coach. Well, lets see what he got.

But to honest, cant the useless NFF find a good nigerian coach? Why always foreigners? NFF just looking for a host were they can feed(divert funds from) on!
Mention the good Nigerian coach or coaches.....
1. Finidi George was appointed you guys threw him under the bus .
2. Austin Eguavon is getting tongue lashed
3. Some people said, the should appoint Amunike. I don't know why he should be given the job .
4. Sunday oliseh was heavily criticized

. Do Nigerians really know what they want? I don't think so......

Herkim:
The kind of guys we have at the helm of our football in Nigeria are bunch of jokers. They are not serious about our football as nation.

Is it a must to appoint a foreign coach for us, this is totally unacceptable. We need our ex footballers to be use as our coach.

This particular Nff coach doesn't have pedigree to coach Nigerian National teams. This is another waste of resources.
Like who?
