Let's even talk tactics. Mali had one man advantage from the first half against CIV. Scored from a screamer, and still could not win.

A tactically sound coach should have won that game. So I don't get it

The only positive thing I see in Chelle's record is beating SA 2-0 after regulation time at the AFCON. Just 2 wins in that AFCON. Eguavoen even has a better AFCON record

Go check na..
JP had a far better resume than Chelle.. let's leave all this bias and see things the way they are.

let me help you, Samueltemi337

Chelle vs Peseiro. You can ignore the Naija stats for Peseiro. Granted Chelle is a young coach, but what has he achieved?

But the team is already steady
Why not allow Eguavoen to continue
There is already rhythm in the team


And for the CHAN Eagles
How can he take over immediately
Allow ogumbote and illechukwu who know the players down to thier NPFL clubs to finish what they have stated

Let them lead the team to CHAN

what's his record?
Honestly, judging by his record, I think they should have just let Eguavoen continue. I don't see how he is better than Eguavoen, and he doesn't have Eguavoen's long experience with the SE. I was only referring to those condemning him for being Malian.

Anyways, maybe Egu isn't convinced that he can win this WC qualifiers and he doesn't want to be remembered as the coach who failed to qualify Nigeria twice.

Anything foreign good or bad always cool right?.....Chelle sacked by Mali for poor WCq but hired by NFF to qualify Nigeria for WC?

Excuse now he has knowledge of African football.

I just hope Eagles makes it

Eguavoen wanted an indigenous coach to succeed him. I don't think he would have minded continuing. The NFF execs wan chop money. Chelle even took a pay cut to take this job, considering what he was paid in Algeria. That's the kind of profile they like. They get to have their cut.

So in your manly take, any coach for that matter is good enough.. interesting!
bros Eric Chelle is not any coach…atleast he is an experienced coach and has been around here in africa for sometimes…you all are looking for a coach that won Afcon back to back, or has won epl and bundesliga….who was Emerse Fae the ivorian coach before lifting the afcon trophy?

Very sad to see many Nigerians rejecting Chelle not on the basis of his record but on his nationality and skin color. Racial inferiority complex really has a firm grip on most of us.

I think Chelle should introduce himself to the SE team and Nigerians in general as a Frenchman, not a Malian. That would help us believe he is capable.
A black man is not a Frenchman. French people are white Caucasians. Enough of this transevaluation of values. That's how men became women and women became men.
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by WarHammer2000: 7:58am On Jan 08, 2025
Well, both Rohr and Peseiro had average RECENT records before they joined the SE but they achieved meaningful success with us.

No matter how good a cook is, if you give her
2,000 naira to cook a pot of Ogbono soup, she will certainly do worse than an average chef given a budget of 500,000 naira to prepare the same dish.

No matter how skilled a coach is, if he keeps getting hired by poor teams with average players, there's little he can do. Chelle has never managed a team as talented as the SE before. Now he has a team with elite players in the best clubs in the world at his disposal.

Let's see how his soup will taste.
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by Joebie: 7:59am On Jan 08, 2025
Problem is Chelle is not the best 3rd grade foreign coach we can get with African experience.

TBH, the only thing impressive about the guy is that he is young...
I don't care about all this talk of him playing entertaining football with Mali at the AFCON.. his CV isn't impressive at all...
But of course, I hope he succeeds
I don't want no entertainment. Just qualify us for the Mundial and that will be entertaining enough.

Emerse Fae is like Roberto Di Matteo of Chelsea champions league winner,so nothing special
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by Joebie: 8:07am On Jan 08, 2025
may we also consider the circumstances that led to Fae getting the job? Yes surprises can happen, but should we have these kind of mediocre standards at appointing coaches, because of a few surprises?

I posted the last games of Chelle in charge and people are still arguing let him play first. WC qualifying record is poor with Mali. His record post AFCON is disastrous, and yet they say let him hold a press conference first. Why do we like gambling like this?
is Nigeria Mali? even the quality players we think we have over mali, Chelle still came and chop our eyes 2-0…
He is playing in group that has Ghana,Comoros and Madagascar…these are also decent teams that can beat any country in the top 10….Mali is Just 4points behind Ghana and Comoros with 6games to play…not as if he left Mali in position that they cannot qualify again…i hate hypothetically statements though…but if Mali had left him to continue…he will slug it out with those guys above him in that group going by their form at the Afcon…Africa is just too impatient with coaches…with the Ghana is doing mumu, Post Afcon form of Mali will thrash Madagascar and Comoros and give Ghana a run for their money.
Eric Chelle qualified as table leader form a group that has
3rd place finisher
Fierce North African Tunisia.
oga lets allow him play his first two games(oh ue will even lead Chan eagles in february)…calm down, i didn’t say he the best coach, but he is decent and has some decent african tactics to play in hostile condition.
His first 16games for Mali was a back to back winning.
Even CIV themselves celebrated widely cos the match was a seconds away from PK shootout.

Post AFCON Mali under Chelle lost to Ghana at home, and couldn't beat Madagascar @bolded.
He topped the group at AFCON with 1 win and 2 draws.

Fierce Tunisia? How did Tunisia fare besides Mali at the AFCON?
Let's also note that SA lost their first game. They probably got better after then.

See the Group Standing as a refresher.
