These are players we should be going after not those that want to eat their cake and still have it at the same time

If this is real, can you post it on the NFF page?

oloriooko:
Which is gradually becoming his permanent place, hope he's not carving his butt prints on the bench already
Seem Villa is feeling the big clubs will soon come for the dude

His end product needs to improve

Especially now Villarreal is looking for results

etrouble:
Buhari cannot sack Osinbajo. The Court already ruled on that on Obasanjo VS Atikuchukwu

Buhari does not obey court orders

Chukwueze on the bench for Villarreal

MetalJigsaw:
Three reasons why Gernot Rohr should go
opera.com



The recent face-off between the Nigeria Football Federation and Super Eagles coach Gernot Rohr has taken another dimension after it was revealed the gaffer was angling for an extension to his contract which expires in seven months.
Rohr got an extension to his contract before the 2018 FIFA World Cup, a move many felt was in the right direction but things have turned sour between the Federation and the coach.

The crux of the matter is unpaid salaries and allowances and even though Rohr has not publicly complained about it, sources within the NFF has said he is unhappy and might leave.
Rohr has neither confirmed nor denied the rumour but it is evident that the once beautiful relationship between Rohr and the NFF is now frosty.

With the start of the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers by the corner, I think it is time the love affair between Gernot Rohr and the NFF comes to an end.

Something has to give, we can't start the qualifiers in this manner.

Here are three reasons I think Rohr should take a walk.

Rohr has not won anything with the Super Eagles.

This a fact and I am not sure anyone will disagree with that. I have seen coaches sacked for lesser reasons but Rohr seems to have some hold on the powers that be.

A first-round exit from the FIFA World Cup did nothing to enhance his reputation and then the third-place finish at Egypt 2019 didn’t exactly soothe frayed nerves.

To put things in perspective, the last time Nigeria was at the Nations Cup prior to Rohr’s arrival, the title went back to Abuja. At Brazil 2014, Nigeria, with an arguably less talented side, (with due respect to the class of 2014) got to the second round and gave France a run for their money before bowing out.

Rohr’s 'spreadsheet' at the 2018 World Cup and 2019 Nations Cup did nothing to enhance his reputation or even improve on past World Cup and Nations Cup appearances. He has not delivered as he promised he would.

No love lost between Rohr and the NFF
It has been clear for some time now that Rohr and the NFF are just papering the cracks in their relationship. The Franco-German isn’t happy that the NFF have no made his salaries and allowances a priority while the NFF blame the situation on lack of monies from external sources responsible for his salaries.

That excuse has apparently not hit a right chord with Rohr and even though he has not publicly said so, there have been rumblings from his camp related to payments.

Every worker should be paid his dues and Rohr is no different but if they can’t find common ground the divorce might just be an option.

I am not privy to Rohr’s contract but I think there is a way out of this unnecessarily bickering. Rohr should take a chill pill while the NFF raise monies due to him or he should resign and sue the NFF for breach of contract.

Again I am no lawyer and I haven’t read the contract the NFF entered with Rohr but common sense should prevail here.

The Super Eagles brand is bigger than Rohr or the NFF and the grass, in this case, should not suffer when two elephants fight.
Either they reach an amicable agreement or Rohr should resign and sue the NFF for breach of contract.

Best way forward.
Rohr has taken the Eagles as far as he can.
I think Rohr has done his bit for the Super Eagles as I do not believe he can improve the team anymore. This might sound defeatist but I have always had this feeling since that ‘six minutes of madness’ against Argentina in the last group game at Russia 2018.

Lack of game management from the players and the bench caused us a Round of 16 slot and I must say it was painful to take. Rohr
We had our destiny in our hands but we somehow contrived to throw it away. It would not be the last time such will happen as Rohr’s tactics and substitutions have left a lot to be desired.

The group stage game against Madagascar (The Eagles lost that game 2-0) was painful to watch and it clearly showed Rohr’s lack of understanding of his squad or maybe he just does not have it anymore in him to deliver the Eagles he promised.

Nigeria’s game with Algeria in the semi-final of the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations is another prime example in Rohr’s inability to get over the line. With the game inching towards extra-time, we somehow managed to put ourselves in a compromising position. We were on the ascendancy after our equaliser but once again we allowed the game to run away from us.
It will be easy to blame the players but I think Rohr should take a chunk of that blame.

He’s done his bit for the Super Eagles and I thank him for that but I believe he (Rohr) has ran his race with the Eagles.

The news making the rounds right now is that the NFF won’t be renewing his contract. If that happens, I won’t say I will be an unhappy man.

He’s got a lot of free passes for a long time and maybe this is the point where he calls time on his Super Eagles adventure.

Take your opinion and shove it through your ass

Only the 4-1-4-1 formation can get the best of Ndidi

David Luiz missed his calling to play in midfield

He could easily have been top 10 dms in the world

darkelf:
You're right about this. Although I rate him 50% on his abilities as a coach (and I feel he needs refresher courses or a tactical assistant), its not a lie that merit determines team selection for the Super Eagles now and 90% of players merit their place

It's not just merit, it's having the ability to handle the egos that feel hard done by the selections

darkelf:
There's no jinx bro

If you put in the right type and amount of efforts, you get desired results. Its the law of Nature and its unchanging

Exactly

Ahmed Musa scored a brace today

When Ahmed Musa gets in the mood...... 🔥

Here's the best goal of the brace he scored in Al Nassr's 5-1 win earlier today.pic.twitter.com/SqOj3K4Km5

Forget shout!! It is not possible

Is it possible for a president to remove a CJN?

Kuginzi:
Not possible&!!!

You can only shout

Kuginzi:
Falana is dreaming or confused!!! Let him ask Obasanjo about the bad experience he had about 3rd term agenda

If Obasanjo had crippled Atiku on time he would have gotten his 3rd term

Leganes defence is wack

TheSuperNerd:
Kalu is still 22. Players peak normally between 25-29.

.

Development is as a result of hunger and hardwork

On the basis of that I say, Kalu has reached his peak

charlesemeka85:
maybe he is not doing something right. relegating players to the bench sometimes brings out the best in them when given a chance

Not Kalu, he has reached his peak

TheSuperNerd:
Full time in Cairo:

#U23Afcon

Egypt win 1-0 vs Mali with one of their only 3 shots on target. Mali lost a couple of chances and had more on target. Mali bossed possession but Egypt were defensively rigid and efficient.


Next up is Cameroun vs Ghana in the next One hour and 5 mins...

Very Mali-like

The Arsenal of Africa

Icon4s:
Every member was up for Nominations bro. It was an open democratic process and the people have spoken.

No worries, the process will be well monitored.

Mr Goodluck Jonathan

TheSuperNerd:
Kenneth Omeruo returns to the First XI for Leganes vs Real Sociedad in La Liga.

Chidozie Awaziem makes the bench.



In Ligue 1, both Samuel Kalu and Josh Maja start from the bench today for Bordeaux vs OGC Nice.

Why is Kalu relegated to the bench

Them change coach?

Is it just me or is Airtel very slow today?

Dottore:
At least he's good at his trade as a false prophet and still pulling crowd. What are you good at.

Spotting false prophets

I don't know why I like this man.

The lion himself

He's no lion

He's a false prophet

Oshigun:
The Vultures are gathering. Afenifere that cannot help itself and is largely irrelevant to Yorubas today is mouthing off too just to benefit from the trending name of Osinbajo. Misery loves company.

What haters, clapping hands in glee today, will have the shame of witnessing is Osinbajo growing stronger and becoming more influential from whatever is going on right now. If indeed there is an agenda by a cabal to weaken Osinbajo then I can tell the bigoted haters of Yorubas to note that Tinubu and the Yorubas in general have endured worse to then overcome.

Wise men don't speculate or base opinion on gossip. Let all official info be available and Osinbajo, plus the many influential Yorubas behind him, will know how to move. We leave the premature ejaculation to our brothers from the SE while we get on with the business of determining what is really going on and then devising solutions silently. It is no coincidence Osinbajo , Tinubu, Akande et al are silent. Yorubas are not emotional like others whose first reaction to anything unusual is to be screaming from the roof-top telling the entire world they will do this and that and thus making themselves easy to checkmate.

What a load of crap

What did you people do in Fela, Abiola, Awolowo, Sowere's case?
