Lol... Cameroon beating Malawi 2-0 so far in the Wafcon Final. No Nigeria in the final, no problems so far... The Chawingas have been stifled so far.

HT: Cameroon 🇨🇲 3–0 Malawi 🇲🇼


Randy Waldrum left a very solid defense for the SuperFalcons before he left…. Look at what Madugu has done 😭

The Cameroonian 🇨🇲 side are well drilled….

Their attack upfront is also very Quick and Smart with Ngah #11 and Eto #10 doing their job well..

Look at how the Cameroonian double pivot is shielding the Defense well…. Didn’t know that this Achta Toko Njoya who plays for Real Madrid team B can play as a CDM/Box-2-Box.. was thinking she’s a no.10

We deserve this Africa cup of national seriously 😒

You just woke up or what exactly??

AndSunGorilla:
Sir, you aren't saying it as it is. Saying it as it is means mentioning the player and officials involved. If these things aren't exposed they remain beer parlor gossip and slime allegations, kapisch.

One thing you must take note of is Confidentiality…

And again i can’t put the players career at risk, Do you have the power to give her a Call up if NFF strong heads say NO??

Akekoromowei boost for Nigeria

The Falconets have also received a significant boost with Benfica forward Seimeyeha Janet Akekoromowei cleared to join the squad for the World Cup.

AkinDS:
Another classic case of ‘eyes wide shut’.

I know there are many characters here who will choose to ignore, deny, or remain completely unaware of the truth I put right in front of them…

But anyway I don’t care because the truth no fit hide forever, when matter cast on it own I will be here to laugh out, until then they don’t have to believe, just read and pass or ignore totally.

When I say my things I say it as it’s… who I want impress for here??

Do you know the agency the player belong? Or they’re working with behind close doors..

AndSunGorilla:
Madugu threw the first Salvo now during his post match conference.he said based on their training sessions, she wasn't good enough to be considered.

But was good enough to make the team😂😂😂

Abi make we mention player name wha Pay 2M naira to go WAFCON.?

I hope the Super Falcons ladies will come out and tell their stories, and damn the consequences!

I have heard things from the players, but I’m not in a position to talk about them.

If these players don’t come out and speak with evidence, then they’re part of the problem.

Dollars, Euros, or Francs,

Better still do you know how much is that #500k worth?? You wan go pay Coach under $450 for a year??

Ahhh fear person oooo

How much do you think Emma Hayes and Sarina Weigman receives??

Anyway we no reach to appoint coach of their standard that’s what you mean..

@NGSuper_Falcons 🇳🇬 set to reach their lowest FIFA ranking points in history when the next update is made next month.

🔸Projected points: 1522.09
🔸Previous lowest: 1535

Madugu really came to destroy everything

lovewins:
You don't need $500k to hire a world class coach for the super falcons. You need maximum $200k to get it done. You'll even get multiple options for a little less than that.

The past and current Moroccan coach earned about $200k too. That gives you an idea of the going rate of coaches of that calibre.

Also, there's no world where the NFF can afford to pay 500k for a falcons coach. They struggle to do that for the super eagles coach talk less then falcons. They should go find $120k-$150k coach with the promise of prompt payment. That's a lot more realistic in my opinion.

$120k/$150k for this era?

Then we’re not ready at all.. except they’re going to employ an Ex-SuperFalcons international as Coach or a Randy Waldrum type.!

If Nigeria really need a World Class A-Level Coach then $250k and above at least ohh

NasirIbnLaAhad:
Lovewins, as always, your contribution brings much-needed rationality to these sorts of debate which are often guided by emotions and sentiments. I also fancy your analogy comparing Madugu’s tenure to the systemic realities of the Nigerian state. But personally, I still think you may be giving Madugu too much grace here with what he did to this team. I wasn't fooled one bit by the WAFCON win. We've won the African Women's Championship 11 times already before Madugu took full control of the team. You say his inputs possessed little to no consequence, I'd say his inputs, especially starting from the semi-finals of the last WAFCON we won, were actively destructive to the players. When (a) you don't have a coherent coaching philosophy that players can learn and stick to, (b) you don't even have a stable starting 11 and you keep switching up in every game, not allowing players to settle into certain roles and (c) when you pair players with other players they don't gel with or play players out of position, you're actively making things difficult for these players and increasing their workload, all the while disrupting their focus and affecting their decisiveness with your senseless "go! go! go!" barking from the sidelines.

Which brings me to the Michelle Alozie bit. It's unfortunate that people can't see how this poor girl was set up for failure before the tournament even started. Any coach who does basic player scouting would have realized how ill-advised it was to keep deploying Alozie as a left-back, which is a role in which she has historically struggled in and clearly lacks natural positional instincts.
As a right-footed, attack-minded fullback, playing on the left severely restricts her body shape, field vision, and passing angles. Alozie’s primary strengths lie on the right side, where she can overlap, combine in wide areas, or cut inside to deliver dangerous deliveries into the box. By forcing her onto the left flank without instructing a central midfielder or center-back to shift over and plug the gap during transitions, Madugu stranded her on a defensive island. And people are surprised she looked awful this tournament? No kidding! What do you expect taking a fish out of its fish tank?

I'd also like to note that calling for complete NFF accountability and highlighting atrocious coaching are not mutually exclusive. Both statements are simultaneously true. The current NFF leadership is an administrative cancer. Assembling camp barely two weeks before a major tournament - when key rivals had over a month of preparation - and starving the squad of high-profile warm-up friendlies is pure institutional and logistical negligence. Not only did they frustrate Randy out of his job, they also exposed and accelerated the failure of coaches like Finidi and Madugu (however tactically inept they were) by failing to put proper preparation in place. This doesn't excuse Madugu. He's still tactically inept either way and we deserve better. The girls deserve better.

The worst thing Nigeria could do is get involved in a discussion of "we would have won if X or Y started". Swap in your favourite player and the result doesn't change. All tournament we have been chopping and changing. The problem lies deeper than that.

See your U20 for Abuja Stadium 😂😂😂

I guess the NFF body na from bad to worse

To let you all know, The Women’s League Clubs are also another huge problem, not all of them though…

Imagine a players contract expired last month and the player want to leave, she ask for her clearance form so that she can leave, Club management are sending her a Contract extension letter which is until 2028 season which she must sign before she can be cleared to leave the club😂😂😂😂

If you want me to post details and evidence I can still post…

Nigeria Football Problem Plenty..!

gomol:
500k/yr max should do it

Nigeria can get a well known World Class Coach with that amount….

$400k — $500k annual salary, but they won’t risk it cause they will rather steal that money and come up with I give give the team $10k for each goals when things get rusty.

Let me update you guys….

U20 are currently in Camp for the World Cup in Poland 🇵🇱

The Coach complained about the bad training pitch at the FIFA Goal Project in Abuja, instead of the NFF to do the needful they took the girls to Abuja Stadium 😂😂😂😂

What happened to the era of taking the team on a Training Camp abroad to a country similar to the host country for the players to get acclimatized with the weather conditions and everything??

Omor this NFF board need to go…. They gave us this dirty Madugu that made the SuperFalcons miss out on the World Cup..

Anywhere the head goes the body follows, so if Madugu one part of the body is to go, let the head themselves go as well…

Kibbs:
He’s the face of this failure of an administration, idc if he’s the scapegoat or not. He’s clearly not fit for purpose, you want him to be covered in glory or what? After this shambolic displays?

I guess Justin Madugu sabotaged everyone because from what I heard he was going to be sacked after the South Africa 🇿🇦 game..

Mecka:
So this tiktok ladies have joined their super eagles boyfriends to add to our sorrow of not seeing Nigeria at the World Cup. What kind of disappointment is this? Who have we offended in this country

Everyone has to play to their strengths instead of cosplaying as what they are not, Colombia, Brazil play fast pace attacking football, Spain play possession game, that’s what their players are built around, and it works for them, One reason I can’t even criticize Malawi and Zambia for their playing style because that’s the kind of players they have..

Tabitha & Tewma are the fastest attacking duo in women’s football and you want the team to be playing tiki-taka? it won’t work..
You can have the most technical players in the world and you will still find it hard to contain the style of football with these profiles, we’ve seen it happen before..

Look at the SuperFalcons one of our Strengths for some years now is the double pivot in Midfield…

Evelyn Nwabuoku & Halimatu Ayinde with Okobi in front of them

Or

Rita Chikwelu & Ayinde with Okobi in front of them..

Or

Ucheibe & Ayinde, Abiodun & Ucheibe with Tony Payne or Echegini in front of them…

And it took Randy some time to get this and when he realize he stucked to it.. and things started getting better..

Then the pace on the flanks was also one of Nigeria Strength.. Combine with a Very Physical and Athletic Center Backs of Ohale and Onome..

Me I just tire to even continue….

Sometimes the best decision you can make in Nigeria is to not belong, to not be part of any gang. Maintain your neutrality, be independent and speak your mind, speak truth without fear. Enjoy watching people carry the burden of ass licking and trying so hard to please their ogas.

olapluto:
Moving forward, NFF should support the U17 and U20 girls. The U17 girls have a very sound coach, much better than Madugu.
Then we need a new head of female football in Nigeria. The occupants have fed fat for doing zlitch.
Wemimo should take U17 or U20 on a long term basis.

The future is not bleak for the falcons. The conveyor belt of talents is still intact. We just need a sound coach that can also convince technical disaporians.
Oh and we need a sound Nigerian assistant to drill the girls on how to shoot properly. We lack a proper striker in the team since Nkwocha.

People like Aisha Folade, Sam Ahmadu and co need to follow this NFF squad and leave as Madugu and his crew are going.

yinkeys:
Very sad year for Nigerian football
Until 2030
The issue is that we will never learn from our mistakes
Same conventional politicians will occupy the NSC & NFF
Won’t be surprised if Falcons don’t qualify for 2031 World Cup

Nigerians geniunely understimate the importance of preparation.
But in the typical Nigerian behaviour believing money can solve every problem, those f**ls at NFF and NSC started promising the players thousands of dollars, after they found themselves in dire situations.

Incompetent dimwits! Money that would have gone into proper preparation and getting a World Class Coach….

Imagine believing a PHE teacher who can’t even perform on the field of play to take you to the World Class… At least he won the WAFCON with Randy Waldrum hardworks, reaping were you did not sow!

Diavolo:
One thing about local coaches is they are so bad they can't even figure out how to sell the local players they desperately want to market so they can get a share of the commission. You need to win first and then gradually introduce the players they want to sell. But they make it so obvious that it affects the morale of the team. Same thing Finidi did with Taminu who has found his level. Madugu already confirmed when he said he prefers to use local league players even when there are better foreign born players. I don't know if it's greed from the coaches themselves or their masters from the NFf who put them as puppet in these positions forcing them to always tow this road

Madugu said it himself that he doesn’t fancy the. Foreign born SuperFalcons players…

FIFA Rankings 🤦‍♂️


I pray they don’t fall down below 45

daveP:
A federation can be terrible and the coach and players can still brave up and do the needful. The Late Yemi Tella(God bless his soul) did it. Siasia did it as well.


So for Madugu, he is terrible and mediocre for this outcome. This is his football. He is the African Arne Slot!!!


All his sentimental supporters that made all that saw this ahead and labeled us haterz are now pleased ba? You think we can't display faith in the midst of systemic failure like you did? We chose not to cos this ship and the sailor were bound for destruction even if it left the shores.

Whatever the hell this is, is an indictment on local coaches cos at the hand of two now, we miss out on the World Cup for both teams for the very 1st time ever


Finidi George and Justin Madugu


Maybe they were better in the past and such opened doors for all these trials and error. But they're not getting any better whatsoever. They're not here for better careers as Coaches/Managers. And don't bring the nonsense luck trope in here. this is not only the reward for systemic failure. This is the reward for mediocre with its supporters despite the handwriting on the wall

Madugu, Ann and co were never good coaches, go and check their records with the clubs they handled…

They were only there as NFF toys and instruments to ruin the team…

Is Ann better than Omagbemi, Akide, Nkwocha, Maureen Mmadu, Wemimo, Stella Mbachu?

We know why she’s there!

All the main players of the SuperFalcons don’t want to say anything out here so they don’t lose their spot in the team, because if they do they won’t get call up again..

When Randy Waldrum said Madugu, Ann and co weren’t good enough to be his Assistant you all were calling him names…

After Madugu buy them Sam Ahmadu, Ademola, Former U17 media Officer Madam Faith and co to say good things about him in the media Abi e get Wetin we nor no about?

At least we have seen it all..

gomol:
JM should not be used as a scapegoat.
Since we are not going to the world cup we can now focus on the people and organisation working day and night to kill football in Nigeria.

Oga there are a lot the players said behind Camera but we can’t talk because it would look as if we leaked out personal information they confided in us..

Since the Days of Nigeria Coaches handling the team, i have never for once spoken against them but pleaded for maximum support..

Look here, Rasheedat Ajibade, Asisat Oshoala Ashleigh Plumptre did a lot of work behind the scene and you all would think Madugu was doing one thing…

I know most of you don’t know this, But I can boldly tell you that when the SuperFalcons were losing to Morocco 🇲🇦 2-0 in that last WAFCON final, instead of Madugu and his crew to do the needful as Coaches,
THEY WERE CRYING 😭 😂😂😂😂

The players literally assembled themselves and fought back to victory.. You all think it’s Madugu!

The players were the ones who won that WAFCON with their individual brilliance…. I have a lot to say but for the sake of the players safety I can’t..

When i talk, they tagged me an enemy.

The Super Falcons are now struggling badly under Justin Madugu, and the reality sinked in.

Madugu inherited a squad that had already been assembled and developed into a competitive unit, and the WAFCON triumph came amid that existing foundation. Now, with more time under his leadership, serious questions are being raised about the team’s tactical identity, performances and overall direction.

Even the playoff route to the World Cup he couldn’t…

For a team of Nigeria’s stature, this is deeply concerning. The Super Falcons deserve a clear tactical identity, strong leadership and performances that reflect the quality within the squad.

Same team that defeated Australia 🇦🇺 in their Home and held England to a draw could not even get a Playoff spot….

Chiaaaeeee!

I pray God delivers those Madugians from Eternal Blindness 🙏

Thank God is now clear that Randy Waldrum is not a good coach and he left nothing in the team before he left..

2-0

Sack that useless aboki...no pay him salary again

He must continue oooohhh

Sack what??
