Okay, let me concede that you love the Super Eagles and did not discredit the team, players and the coach

BUT

you are still skirting around the major thrust of my post which is the Grade A coach (best hands) you want appointed as coach of the Super Eagles because you are unconvinced by Eric Chelle who has no Plan B according to you.

So I have some questions for you and I'd appreciate it if you can give direct answers this time.


🔸Who and what is a Grade A coach? Which metrics determine a Grade A coach?
🔸Do you think a Grade A coach will want to coach the Super Eagles given the dysfunctional nature of our football administration?
🔸Do you have any Grade A coach in mind that you'll want to be appointed for the Super Eagles? If YES, who?
🔸Is the Super Eagles having a Grade A coach a guarantee for winning the AFCON 2027 ,& 2028?
🔸Has any Grade A coach managed the Super Eagles in recent years? If Yes, who?
🔸Do you consider Emerse Fae, the Ivory Coast coach to be a Grade A coach?

since 2019 afcon it has been african tutored and trained coaches that has been lifting afcon….all the so called Grade A where are they…we once had Avram grant(former Chelsea,Portsmouth,Westham
,coach) in Afcon, we once had Christ Hughton(former, Newcastle,Nottingham,Birmingham,Norwich,Brighton former coach) how many Afcon them win….in this Africa, you will be shocked that a coach like Finidi can just take up the coaching role of Angolan national team and go win Afcon…everyone go shock🤣🤣

Meliforme:
Those are the kind of questions that I take so much delight in giving answers to, as this will broaden our perspective of the game and give more validity to my stand, but you have soiled the entire discussion with your fingers pointing at me, saying things that are completely false, I don't like it when people say things that i did not say.

Maybe for the next time when this type of discussion comes up, i can lend my voice with good insights, but for now. I am done.

Lol. If your opinion had substance, it would welcome scrutiny and you'd answer the questions, not take the next available flight outta here.

Anyways, l have added your monicker to my list of fantasy football theorists in this thread, and henceforth I'll ignore and wouldn't engage your posts.

Love and light.

Maduka Okoye is NOT FIT to lace Nwabali boots.

darkelf:
Awoniyi has nothing to offer the eagles

It's not even about the stats. Bros style is play is yuck

There no match awonoyi is playing and you expect a goal....it's that bad

Let's not deceive ourselves by holding onto sentiments

You guys should stop saying stuff like this. Ndidi has been written off even before Afcon as having nothing to offer anymore but today it’s a different story. For as long as a player hasn’t retired he can still be useful to any team on a lucky day.

Imagine Nottingham saying Awoniyi has nothing more to offer before yesterday’s game. Let’s stop all these our arrogant takes please!

Spain at the 2022 WC was in transition plus they had had two poor back-to-back WC tournaments before 2022. 2014 (Knocked out in first round), 2018 (Unimpressive showing before getting knocked out in second round). Plus in 2022 it was the lottery of penalties after parking the bus that Morocco used to beat Spain.

Belgium was a team in decline so as good value Morocco's victory was it still wasn't prime opposition they beat.

Sorry I can't seriously rate a Morocco who haven't done anything of note since 2022. Losing to SA in the 2023 AFCON in the second round and failing to win a tournament on home soil despite all the attendant ojoro is not the hallmark of a team that can get to the semifinals again of a WC.

minfelix:
we just like to downplay teams and their record here….especially on Nairaland…baba if Super eagles beat Belgium,Spain,Portugual at the world cup, the type of hype will get here will be blown over the roof and out of proportion….now spain is a weakened team, Belgium is a weakened team because no b Nigeria beat them abi🤣🤣….baba Morocco can still bank on their tactical astuteness and still shock the world….dont come and make the opponents they defeated at the last world cup as if they are Botswana and Tanzania….the freaking defeated Spain,Portugal and Belgium…thats a huge one

Awoniyi in form and with a decent run of games is a good forward. Pray he gets his consistency back.

I didn't know how to feel about Nwaneri's mesmerising display in his debut for OM because I don't want him to do well so that England would overlook him for us to pounce, also I can't wish him failure.

Here is another deal that I want to happen. If this deal happens, we are getting Iroegbu.

I feel more confident approaching these boys when they go abroad than when they are in England.

Kog45:
Yes a goal in months,8 matches and a goal with very poor minutes of play if summed up is not up to 3 full matches,Awoniyi hasn't had 90 minutes game this season,most of his games this season are subbed in 10 or less minutes to go,and funny you did not even showed compassion to his injuries woes, especially the last one...fans are just happy for him

Oga Chris,nothing serious, people are just happy for him due to his life threatening injury.....yes only injury made him not to be relied on cuz if Paul Onuachu with eagles stats of 30 matches with 4 goals and even older can still be considered then why written off a player with eagles stats of 10 matches and 2 goals with even limited minutes.

You are right but trying to guilt-trip me wasn't necessary.

I want to build a team similar to what Senegal parades. I want a team where my bench has same or almost same quality as my starting eleven. It hurts when our standard of play drops after a substitution is made.

Painful to say, but Awoniyi doesn't guarantee goals. He is a good guy and a hard worker nonetheless.

semid4lyfe:

This take is emotion laden. You will be fine.

Both are good goalkeepers

I've heard all the arguments but what is still making me skeptical of the chances of the petition succeeding is whether FIFA concerns itself with national laws.

Plus these same players featured in the recent AFCON highlighting the confidence of the Congolese FA that the players were duly cleared.

Believe me I'll be the happiest Nigerian if the petition is ruled in our favour but one has to be realistic.

charlesemeka85:
if that case isn’t tangible enough fifa would hv thrown it off since

And the good thing is the NFF got the timing of filling the petition right which is working in their favor currently

Heard the verdict will be heard before the end of Feb and with the look of things DR Congo will be kicked out

Okoye based on quality would ordinarily be a goalkeeping option but his refusal to come for the AFCON shows he's not reliable or a team player.

He was handed the keys when he hadn't proven himself club wise even though we had other goalkeepers then nobody complained.

Nwabali took his chance and has cemented his place as our number 1.

Maduka should enjoy his club career no be by force.

My question,does Paul Onuachu guarantee goals

U re not guilty until u re proven guilty- Dlaw et al 2006 ,dt answers d ur number 2 question concerning dem featuring at the afcon


U c dt number 1 question ,I am sure is what is giving FIFA HEADACHE,like I said in my previous post any judgement dt Favor’s DR CONGO Will be exploited by other countries in d future,making reference to the judgement

Kog45:

I have no confidence in either of the two leading the lines, same as Tolu, but Onuachu trumps both as a sub-striker(playing behind the main striker) because he has a better footwork and his linkup play is good. That said, my choice is a fit Terem Moffi.

Osimhen
Akor
Moffi

Kog45:
Thanks Ibrich, I understand but sometimes man must talk,imagine you rated a player with 30 matches and 4 goals but written off a player with 10 matches and 2 goals and they're bold telling us he is fat but the guy showed us his six packs,so who's lying

Awoniyi is like a son to me but you can never see me here rooting for him in eagles cuz I knew he hasn't done enough but i hate it taking down on player unnecessarily especially a player that nearly die cuz of this beautiful game.

Imagine telling us what are they celebrating about him,as if they're not in this world when he had that terrible injury,even Nottingham Forests board extended his contract just to show that they care,fans stood for him cuz they're compassionate but here you see guys running their brothers down anyhow.

Sad but thats life
Thank God Awo is buzzing again
I just pray he goes on a scoring run

True.

Nwabali is the undisputed #1 anyday, Maduka is also a good goalkeeper and a reliable backup anyday. I no know why dem dey do like say he useless.

Kog45:

Yes.

Another reason why Morocco has CAF by their balls

Nigeria needs to step up abeg

Make Okoye dey there dey play touchline. Arthur Okonkwo go soon begin drag d No 1 shirt.

Country wey no dey work as a team.

Let Moffi find a club first and get back to form, he has done absolutely nothing of note to make any serious persons top 3 choice.

baba forget all this thing you dey talk🤣🤣….Spain,Portugal and Belgium are world class teams….decline or no decline, any african team that beat them in a quarterfinal/semifinal match has done a huge lot…..
SA beating Morocco in 2023 does not remove that they are also a big team and one of africa’s current inform teams….Didn’t Benin also beat us?
You want to play and win a team like Spain as an African and you say you wont park the bus, home of tiki taka…issokay

All i know is, you dont need to rate them, but almost a 100% of its football fan will be rooting for them to reach final on home soil….Just wait make SA qualify to round 16 of world cup and see them coming to brag that they will win afcon 2027😂😂….its a general thing with African countries…same thing as us…with our poor showing at 2018 wc, if we had qualified for 2022 and reach the semis im telling you, we would be handing ourselves the trophy of 2030 if we were to b the host🤣

elyte89:
Nope we re not playing Cameroon 🇨🇲 cos Dey didn’t file in any protest ,besides I heard dem sef get skeleton for deir cupboard (mbeumo ) na French guy and Dey also operate non dual citizenship,so if dem wan show head, we go just file in another petition against dem 😃

I read that it was Cameroon that even first filed a protest. I will confirm.

comodo:

My brother....
We suppose dey crush these north and south Africans both on the pitch and in the boardrooms
But we need to get our acts together..
How can a whole Nigeria not have up to 5 FIFA approved stadia??
We did not even say 10 oh!
Just 5!!

So we no get mouth na

Besiktas and FC Porto interested in Terem Moffi

As weak as that Spain is in those 2018 and 2022 edition….
unpopular opinion “baba they will still beat our super eagles of that 2014 and 2018 set if they had met us in the knockout phase or group stage”

i do not also rate Morocco like that sha, but give it to them, they are still maintaining that red hot form

Argentina were so poor in 2018 world cup, but them find way removed us

I don comot mind for Nwaneri, it will only happen if he personally decide to switch to us. He is a big prospect the English FA won’t let slip off their fingers easily

Iroegbunam to lazio will be good for the lad which will brighten the chances of playing for us but at the same time he is seeing enough playing time at Everton. Not sure if Everton will want to sell

Heard the NFF are already in talks with Ugochukwu and Chukwuemeka but have no idea of the progress made so far. Another I would want the NFF and Chelle to reach out to is Femi Azeez, That guy is a certified baller

Golden generation nostalgia. We did not park the bus when we beat Spain 3 2 in france 98. We are the only African team that can actually play ball with Europeans.
