Seeing the level of performance of African teams in this world cup is encouraging.
Senegal giving a good account of themselves against Netherlands , Tunisia holding Denmark and Morocco holding Croatia.

Something tells me if it were the supereagles against either Croatia and Denmark, we would have lost like we lost 4 years ago against Coratia.Against Netherlands, we would have been beaten by Nothing less than 4-0.


Our current crop of supereagles lacks a winning mentality, lacks leaders who can help them stand up to big teams.For example against Portugal, Portugal fielded their second team and player for player, the team they fielded shouldn't be much more better than our team who had Terem Moffi, Simon and Lookman who are banging goals day in day out in their clubs.Ndidi is one of the best midfielders in the premier leage and Bassey have been a revelation for Ajax.So how did a second string Portugal team rout us 4-0?

First and foremost, if you look at the supereagles these days, when playing a bigger team, they play without any confidence and keep making silly mistakes. Even if we score first like against Algeria, we simply can't hold on or score more.As soon as they scored against Algeria, we started defending instead of pressing more.If you remember last world cup, we could have killed Argentina but the likes of Iheanacho and Ighalo just gets jittery whenever near the post.When last did the supereagles win a match after conceding first?
The days of Okocha and Kanu, they were big game players that are unfazed by the team before them.Kanu can literarily turn a game on it's head single handedly.Okocha was Bolton's captain and can bring calm to the team.They don't start defending after a sinle goal.Hopefully the rise of Osimhen will fill this gap and give us a true big game player.

Our NFF is not fit for purpose, we have been performing woefully in even age grade competitions that we used to perform well.Our Local Clubsides are not even getting to the group stages of CAF competitions.How do you expect a local footballer who haven't player a CAF champions league group game to stand up to Neymar or Even Mahrez?
NFF needs to improve our local leagues, we need a footballing philosophy that all our acdemies and local clubs will follow.It would be ingrained in our footballers from under 7.We need standard academies that will be managed by well educated coaches who knows our footballing philosophy. The tikitaka of Spain, the wing play of France, the high intensity of the Germans, the impenetrable walls of the Italians.We need a philosophy that defines our national teams.

Then we need a good foreign coach familiar with African football like Herve Renard till our local coaches are well trained and can step up to take us to the next level.

Shameful king

The only decent team Eguavoen won was Egypt and Egypt is not even what they use to be.Egypt didn't win any team in regular time during the knockout phase of AFCON apart from Morocco and they even further failed to qualify for world cup.Eguaovoen could not win a very poor Ghana team over two legs, Ghana that came last of their group in AFCON, a group that had Comoros.We are Nigeria, we are the super Eagles.Such results are not acceptable

Police are known to do this

Our league is rubbish.
We perform woefully at continental competitions.
And these are the players some people wants called to play for super Eagles?
They make examples of Egypt, Tunisia ans SouthAfrica who uses alot of home based players, but these countries have good leagues and are always at the deep end of African Club Competitions.
Some people mention Enyeama was home based when he started playing for super Eagles but they forgot that Eyimba won back to back champions league when Enyeama was playing for them.

NFF needs to wake up

kingthreat:
Sir, to pay them like Europe, patients have to pay like they pay in Europe.
We can take a cue from India and offer healthcare at lower costs and become a medical tourism destination in Africa.
Leadership has really been a dire problem as it is bereft of ideas.

Patients in UK don't pay for healthcare

kingthreat:
Solutions to these are
1. Make Medical Education the same cost as it is in the UK, US and Western Europe.
2. Leave Medical Education subsidized but let every nurse doctor, health professional know that they are getting medical training on a platter of gold. Compel them to sign an agreement of at least 5 - 10year service in the country.

While this is going on, please try and create a system of better pay for doctors and nurses. They are the real heroes saving lives not Naira Marley, Davido or Tonto Dikeh.

What about paying them the way they're paid in Europe? Make training like it is in US and give them facilities like in UK? Because you conviniently left those ones out

When you lock your hair, it means you have signed an irrevocable contract to one day barb your hair, which day is what we don't know.Might be a year, might be 50 years.So before you lock your hair, you must first come to terms with the fact that you will cut it one day

Some people will come and tell us how it's the western media that is making their religion look bad.Instead of them to accept and deal with extremism in their religion, they want to gag the media

SmartyPants:
He played 11 games less than Abraham.

They are not on the same level at all.

Staying fit is part of the game.You think Messi and Ronaldo will ne great of they miss 3 months every season?

That guy taking the freekick is super good with it

All of them same person, all registered April 12

Nigeria is not a serious country
Even a combination of Pep, Klopp and Jose will fail with this NFF
No substansive coach, but we have assistant coach, who is he assisting?
The assistant even is a corrupt one, there are players in that team not their on merit but because they have big guns in NFF.

Where did they see this news o
I clicked on the link, couldn't find it

Na only Yayah Bello news the OP dey post
We know them when we see them

Nigeria and recycling of coaches, they just keep sacking and reappointing thesame set of coaches.
Failure NFF

Whic

He should resign but my worry is nothing in Nigeria is done out of interest for the country.
The reason he is resigning is because some stakeholders who wants to install their own as NFF chairman are capitalizing on his failures
Just like Rohr was sacked because be refused to use some players linked to the cabals and they capitalized on him not playing attractive football to get him sacked.

Alayopitas:
Why wasnt he invited for our last game against ghana

Invite a player that wasn't playing?

Public money

Honestly he needs to resign.Our league, female football, ubder 17 and 20, everything is going backwards

Tyrrr
