A good start i must confess. Let the team shun the usual "we'v gotten there, lets relax small" attitude.

I wish the team the best and an injury free season.

This is good for Nigeria based on the teams latest performance. However, i still wonder how Argentina still got the number one position based on their latest poor performance and losses !!!! angry grin. Click like if you think Nigeria deserve the latest ranking and share if you think otherwise.

For those who were shouting Nigeria doesn't need a foreign coach, we must use a local one bla bla bla. shocked cry I feel Gernot Rohr have shown that what we needed all this while is a competent coach and nothing else. We were not short of quality players. We just lacked a good, qualified and tactical coach. I mean, the Eagles are a delight to watch now. Away to Zambia was a tactical master piece, so was the match against The Desert Foxes in Uyo. That was a game we would have been beaten by the Algerians. Bottom line is, the NFF made a good decision in getting a good coach, irrespective of where he comes from, and we are reaping the benefits now.
