You like running down our team against Ivory coast all the time. they have the best team in Africa yet could not even qualify for the knock out stage on two occasions of being to the world cup. i don't know how many times it took Nigeria to make a statement in the world cup. maybe you should tell me?


I agree, Nigeria have an average middle fielders. but yet this average middle fielders are unbeaten in the last thirty six world cup qualifying( one of the best in Africa) and only bested by Brazil and Spain, this average middle field is third in Africa and the only team to have been to the last three world cup.

And your world class middle fielders of ivory coast are in what number in Africa ranking please remind me. The good thing is that the last time the both team melt Nigeria came top so show some respect

Though, Gatusso de try pass the rest sha.

Honestly with the exception of Pep most other ex-footballers have failed as coaches.

She is engaged to Azeez, the beach football player.

Even the ones that are currently successful were not that good during their playing days.

He obviously needs to go back to the bakery men. Thank God he, Vierra or Arteta were not given the Arsenal job as were rumored then.

Exactly!

See how Maradona failed. Why Pele too no try?

I have always told people that someone like JJ Okocha can never make a good coach. I have held this opinion since his playing days. Many of them are technically gifted but tactically deficient.

what was his output in his last season in lille? 2011/2012?

7 epl goals i think, 8 in all competition

btw hazard is not a player you'll judge by his goals, Well for me

Icon4s:
Yeah mostly true.

Look at Nigeria's top footballers and see their coaching careers:Amuneke, Amokachi,Siasia, Oliseh. JJ and Kanu just respected themselves no try am.
With the exception of Keshi who by the way did not play football at the level most of those above played. Siasia too tried sha and of course he didn't play at the level those on the above list played.

Truely, the average or below average players are the ones that make good coaches.

Good news for us then. By the time this present crop of carpenters and average players like Agu, Ogu, Iheanacho and co retires, we'll have a bunch of superb coaches on our hands. .

Chrismario:
Because maybe they are not naturally gifted. They spent many years learning how to (do whatever) from coaches to fit in while the good ones are showcasing skills like neymar and Pogba during trainings.

Cruyff succeeded as a coach. Our own Keshi too.
The former coach of newcastle, Kevin keegan, deschamps, pochetinno, zidane, former psg french coach Lauren blanc, Frank reijkard, Diego simeone, pep guardiola, Franz beckenbaur, even our siAsia too

TheGoodJoe:
What of Diego Simeone and Rijkaard who played at the highest level for club and country?

Even Diego Simeone had a very rough patch in Argentina. It takes patience and belief to swing the tide in the direction of the coach. Even Keshi had a rough patch with one of the junior teams before it clicked for him.

Unfortunately, football lacks patience and result is what people think about.

I hope Henry gets the support he needs from the management. He can do it with time. If not, he looks for a smaller club in France and keep trying.

TheGoodJoe:
Gary Neville gave up too early. He is a genius. He just took a drastic step going to Valencia where the philosophy is totally different from what he worked with in England. Then playing against top teams who understood the Spanish game more than him.

I believe Gary will do better with an English side and with time to grow.
