I can't wait for March already. For me I think Chelle should be preocupied with scouting than being busy with CHAN. Of course unless he IS looking to infuse some home based players from CHAN
For real meehn🤦🏼…Coach Daniel and Fidelis should be allowed to continue what they started…thats another way to build our own coaches…NFF sha

If weak teams can frustrate you defensively, then you should also have that defensive style in your toolkit when you meet bigger opponents. Na that versatility we need for the long term.
i use to love AE but the way them use talk tear am down, my moral just dropped, bit with the hiring of Chelle, small hope just rush to me oo…Chelle just need that defensive shock absorbers… then we are good to go

Gusau wants some HB guys infused into the team. But then again, I don't think he needs to be physically involved with scouting when even you wey no be coach, know the performance of all our established stars and new gems coming up.

Even Nwakali wey dey play Sunday Sunday football sef get im videos on the internet not to talk of all those playing real professional football.

It was later that Malians discovered that the reason why he left was because the FA were tired of his toughness and non-interference when it comes to selection of players

NFF should kindly take note of this statement about Chelle from Scorenigeria

He is quite versatile enough, from all the matches he handled with Mali,he executed them with four different formations, but his most preferred formation is 4-2-3-1.

And his defense were always not that bad against those bigger teams,he only loses with just -1 goal margin.
But the drawdown is he either lose or draw against those so called stronger teams.
But let's see what he can achieve now with one the powerhouse teams in Africa.

That AFCON tension is something else,
I hardly finish any of our marches to avoid witnessing any last minute heartbreak goal.
Just look at Seydou Keita's face when that goal entered grin

A little optimism

Don't forget

Finidi’s side lost 2-0 to Eric Chelle’s Mali side at the Grand Stade de Marrakech last year in a friendly

Just days after Finidi George beat Ghana

Not true at all. By the next year, Ronaldo was crowned the world best player and Roberto Carlos was number 2.

Crespo, Lopez, Zanetti were regular in big clubs.

Two years later some of the Atlanta players were stars of the France 98 World Cup. You can't call the Olympics few notches from U-17. Especially , Atlanta and Sidney 2000.
did you recall celestine babayaro and kanu’s celebration at Atlanta 96?

Na wetin Dey pain me be this we keep using our national team to raise profiles of 3rd class coaches

Honestly i apologise to amunike, finidi and sia sia supporters if this is what we can get at the end of the day.
Abeg... remove Finidi from the list of the ones u want to apologize to. Whatever he got, he got deservedly. Dude ensured we got into this mess further. We can blame Peseiro for starting it but somebody made it worse because he wanted to implement his agenda right off the bat.

Okay leggo
Rwa vs Nig (9ja to win)
Zim vs Ben (draw match)
SA vs Les (SA to win)

next match
Nig v Zim(9ja to win)

Rwa v Les (draw match)

After March the group will look like this
SA 11pts
Nig 9pts
Ben 9pts
Rwa 8pts
Les 6pts
Zim 3pts

oga go and sleep, the weed you took yesterday night never clear for your eye…thats my prediction, on paper that my prediction is 70% bound to happen…Super eagles on their days will beat Rwanda home and away…we have beaten teams like Lesotho and sierra leone home and away before….
even poor ghana came back from afcon and beat mali in their home…dont underrate an african sleeping giant they can sting at anytime.
carry your igbo go smoke more and sleep well well

4points from march qualifiers is even more realistic…either we draw away to rwanda and beat zimbabwe at home, or we win away to Rwanda and draw zimbabwe at home…you guys should start looking at things with real reasoning…we are not that bad, even during afcon qualifiers we topped the group having teams like Benin,Rwanda in it…i blame the boys for losing to Rwanda at home…on a normal day dem suppose collect beating

I won’t give up until after march games …I believe if osimhen is fit and we are able to win Rwanda 🇷🇼 away and Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 at home while oda top teams cancel each other ..our World Cup dream will be alive


Remember osimhen hasn’t. Played any World Cup qualifiers yet hence part of d reasons we struggle for goals to win matches .he will be a big determinant in our qualification quest .

His stats for Mali specifically is average considering the opposition if we are to look at the results.

Outside Mali, his stars are poor
List the weak opposition he played with. Ordinary Rwanda dey beat us for house but you think there are still minors in African football.

Joebie:
the truth is we've had games we outplayed our opponents or even had decent goals ruled out and we did not get the maximum points.. I think in football there is time to play conservative and play all attack especially when you know your opponents are better as in these two cases (according to you)

modified
I'm saying this coach needs to learn when to switch up play and be conservative. I think that's pretty a basic thing though i'm not a coach.
if you are going to be all out attack all the time, you will be met with situations like these.
This has to do with the quality of player and not tactical play.

Are you expecting Nigerian players to make this same error the Malin defenders did?
