TheGoodJoe:

How can the best achieving coach of the Super Eagles since Coach Westerhoff kill Nigerian football? We reached a stage France had to injure key players to win us.

We beat the Ivorians and put four past Mali. We played a draw game with Catalonia and played 2-2 with Italy. Two days after we qualified for the World Cup.

Coach Keshi rekindled the dead flame of the Super Eagles. He was a blessing.

forgiveness:
What is the purpose of having extra players if 11 players are good to go? That's what determines a good coach.
His bench was poo.

But the same coach failed to qualify us for the same Nations Cup. I hope it was not fluke.

TheGoodJoe:

Which of the players are you asking for? Coach Siasia is about to shame some of Coach Keshi's haters by inviting Aaron Samuel. Is it Omeruo or Babatunde you are looking for? Is it Leon Balogun?

forgiveness:
I have already told you, most players he later brought into the team was as a result of the perceived sacking of his defender and protector just to pacify some people. Keshi think say na only him get sense kwa.

TheGoodJoe:

Which sacking? He did not have a contract, he received no money from them, no money to support his coaching crew.

He made the choices that were available to him after the NFF stopped him from using home based players. List the players you are saying he called because of perceived sacking.

Perceived sacking because of being the best since Coach Westerhoff.

SUPER EAGLES LIST FOR THE AFCON DOUBLE HEADER AGAINST THE PHAROAHS OF EGYPT
.........................................................................................

Source: NFF official Twitter handle.


Note: The Home-based players are 22 in number and will kickstart preparations in Nigeria on sunday, march 6 (Isn't 22 too much?). The best of which will be selected and added to the foreign pros who will join in later. I think this is the Siasia's interim crew's strategy. ONLY SIASIA AND YUSUF WERE AVAILABLE FOR THE MEETING WITH THE TECHNICAL COMMITTEE, according to reports. Amuneke is still in Spain.

wayodude:
I doubt you understood my earlier points. Are you implying Nigeria did not have any midfielders apart from the 3 Keshi chose to take to Brazil? I dont understand.

I dont think there is such a thing a Keshi hater or Keshi fan. Every true supporter of the Super Eagles wants the team to win every game even if a Monkey is the Manager, never mind when we have a former hero as a player like Keshi as manager. If we dont in and play rubbish fans will criticise big time. na so e dey be everywhere o!

The problem is Keshi gave too much ammunition to critics with his logic defying selections especially for the Confederations Cup and World Cup! He already somehow managed to forge a winning team for the AFCON in February, so why did he have to change the Squad so much for the Confederations Cup which was only 4 months after by inviting Emeka Eze, Mohammed Gambo, Joseph Akpala?? He didn't have to do that...when you do things like that it had better work, because if not? well you know....

Then the Gabriel Okechukwu scandal too....gaddem

No Balogun, Ujah, Success, Ndidi, Madu, Ogu. Go check their stats for this season and see for your self.

THIS IS WHY WE NEED A FOREIGN COACH!! No fuk..ing sentiments

Keshi was a disaster in waiting since he won the Afcon, all other matches thereafter took Nigeria football back to the stone age period....

TheGoodJoe:

I pointed out that first of all, he lost his tactician. Coach Sylvanus Okpala. Second, the NFF said he should not use home based players again which ruled out some of his AFCON players.

That took him to square one and he had to almost start over.

Apart from the armories, he matched the team forward and achieved results. Those who fired their ammunitions, hardly pointed out his brilliant work. Team building takes time and he was getting there.

People kept on hammering selections but hardly looked at the overall results which is harder. I hardly saw ammunitions against Oliseh's selections but look at his AFCON results.

dijon:
pls mention the results oooooo......is it about the disaster in sudan or the calamity in nigeria when we played congo and south africa.... guy, Keshi lost it when he decided to play politics with our football.

wayodude:
Abegi all that na excuses. If Okpala was that much of an influence that without him everything fell apart then perhaps he should have had the job then, not Keshi!

And yes regardless of what NFF said Keshi still took several home based players to the confederations cup, the likes of Mohammed 'miss open net' Gambo, Azubuike 'slow poison' Egwuekwe, Emeka 'who?' Eze, etc lol

TheGoodJoe:

You misunderstood me. You said towards the end, he invited players because of perceived sacking. I am telling you that during that so called perceived sacking period, he was not earning money. Coach Keshi had no contract.

TheGoodJoe:
This is the exact thing I am talking about. You guys have your list and players you want. You guys are forget that Coaches have the way they play and players they keep tabs on.

There is also lack of familiarity that Coach Siasia, Coach Amunike and Coach Yusuf have to deal with.

This is a firebrigade approach.

Let us judge Coach Siasia and his crew after the game.

forgiveness:
Tell us when NFF said so and a game Keshi didn't use a local player.

forgiveness:
And that's why he had invite those players to pacify the NFF to renew his contract because no more defenders and protectors.

TheGoodJoe:

I will not tell you. Google works on your browser. Google whether the NFF stopped Coach Keshi from using home based players.

See Coach Siasia's list. That is what they are against.

joseph1013:
Seriously...I no wan dey hear Keshi. The guy did well and messed up the rest if his tenure. The way sentimentality clouded his selections was unreal. I no even wan remember those bad episodes. Which coach takes just a fit first team to the world cup. Look at our bench and you saw nothing. Look at all the scandals with the player selections. Does anyone remember the transfer of Sunday Mba and how Keshi never invited him again after the debacle? Let's banish the memories of Keshi's ugly past abeg.
