grin grin grin they can't afford to pay him off fully bro and the incoming manager can't start with being owed salaries as a result of nff being broke so thier only option is to pay him off instalmentaly wink

The arrangement is nothing new. A lot of football clubs do it. You keep paying the coach his regular wages until he finds a new job or when his contract elapses, whichever comes first.


I remember Tottenham did it with Pochetino when they sacked him. He was still getting paid until he got a new job

Violence is not solution to crisis

This is a controversial take, perpetuated by politicians to keep the population obedient.

Europe and America became what they are today through violence. They fought countless Civil wars, two world wars to become a little bit of a sane society.

Tbf, if you look at history, a lot of crisis was solved with violence.

That Kerrby connection (Kerr and Kirby) go really limit her chances to start games. Harder dey there plus England and even Lepoulz.... That's squad too stack mehn...

My fav player na Fran Kirby... That girl too sabi ball.

Poor career choice. She made that move early. Even Man utd that doesn't have too much players, she doesn't start every game and even if she did she can't play more than 60 mins because she gets tired out easily in games and start strolling.

She needed regular game time to build that game endurance and fitness. But her father bottled the chance just to make a statement of Brother and sister playing in the same team.

Hopefully, she still fufils her potential because I really like her.

Actually, this is the best time for the NFF to sack him. Immediately after the qualifiers and before the start of preparation for AFCON.

Wait, isn’t it rohr that was in charge when we defeated Algeria 3 - 1 and cameroun 4-0 or when we draw Ukraine and Brazil 1-1 and 2-2 respectively or even Argentina 4-2 how did we go from that, to losing 1-0 to CAR

Even though Rohr na craze man, but he's managing us in a period of transition from one generation of players to a new one.

Look at the team that qualified for 2018 world cup and look at the team now. You will see a lot of changes especially in midfield and Attack.

Then you will understand that any other coach could have easily fall into crisis of not qualifying for tourneys because they couldn't get the new set of guys to gel together faster.

I give it to him because he's still able to maintain his standard of qualifying for tourneys.

But man should work on his tactics and find a way to make these guys work together instead of looking for Ighalo.

The problem he's having now is he's not yet found the wining formula or formation to effectively use our midfield and attacking talents. He's still chopping and changing formation. From 4 2 3 1 at AFCON to 4 4 2 and 3 5 2 now. Hopefully he finds the right formula fast.

Good players are plenty in Eastern European leagues. They just need a top team to take a chance on some of them. The way Fergie took a chance on Vidic years ago, or Spurs on Modric. SE matic too.

They have strgong mentality as well, that is why you see some of them come into top European leagues in top teams and start bossing it immediately

I think utd problems go way beyond ole .

Hes not the first and he wnt be the last

You're right. it's from the top.

If the people at the top knows their job and wants success (on pitch success) for the club, Ole wouldn't have become man utd Manager in the first place. His stint at the club would have ended at the interim manager stage. If at all they made a mistake and retained him the way they did because of the Winning runs during that period,( Because nothing bad about that appointment, afterall, Hansi flick became Bayern manager because of his good runs as an Interim which also won them UCL)they would have sacked him after that shameful UCL exit last season.

The point is that, if those are the top knows their Job, Ole ought to be history as late as last season.

Nothing wrong with the Ole experiment by the club management. Sticking with up for this long is what made them incompetent especially when it was clear that he's a dunce

It usually work for such teams when top teams are flopping, not this season mehn.

Most top teams dey hot. Westham will be taken back to where they belong. cheesy

Exactly and when teams like Man Utd get back in form, Westham will eventually drag 5/6/7th positions with Leicester and Tottenham them.

We saw it last two seasons, with Man utd pushing out Leicester out if the top 4. We saw it last season with Chelsea and Liverpool after they get back in form towards the end of the season.

Westham did more than this last season, what happened at the end?

Epl isn’t a league where any team that picks form will just make top4. Calm down.

They’ll do nothing...

Leicester even do pass this in the past two seasons. grin

The thing is that when these sort of teams get hit by at least 2 or 3 players in their first 11, they regress immediately because they usually don't have the squad depth for quality replacement.

Leicester usually fall off in the middle or end of the season when their key players like Vardy Ndidi, Barnes are injured or fatigued because they played too much games without rotation. That's why it usually look as if they bottled top 4.

How is Amoo scoring headers at this height?
Good positioning.

It's same with Jota of Liverpool too. The guy is nowhere the tallest of players , but he gets under a lot of crosses.
Aguero is another type of such players in his prime.

People like these know how to anticipate ball movement and know where the ball will land so they always position themselves there, that is why it looks as if they are getting a free header because they are usually alone in those moments.

Cavani too does it a lot.

I remember when Osimhen was getting invitation by virtue of special young player tag. Do you guys remember, during Rorh's early days with the team? I think Amoo can come in to train with the big boys. It won't hurt us.

Rohr has lost his own way.

He has left the path that gave him success when he first came in 2016 and he's now chasing shadows with the NFF.

The Rohr of 2016/2017 would have invited Amoo even if it's to train with the senior players, like he did for Nwakali brothers and Osimhen, even when Osimhen had unstable club situation with Wolfsburg.

The Rohr we have now is different.

I heard upon Stam's publication of Head To Head, his book and in the book he revealed private information that could have been damaging to United & was highly critical of individual players, the Neville brothers in particular.

He was in London playing for the Dutch national team when the book was released via tabloid serial. Upon his return he was summoned to SAF's office for the “hairdryer treatment”.

While Stam was driving home afterwards, SAF called him & told him to wait at a gas station for him. When Ferguson arrived, he told him he'd been sold to Lazio. Like that..

But what we officially heard was Stam was coming back from a serious injury, United received a good offer and they decided to sell on selling the player as being the best move for everyone involved.

One of fergie's biggest problem is he always put his own ego first, he dismissed some of his best players..According to him, nobody’s bigger than the club. Which actually meant nobody’s bigger than ME.

While Manchester United got a lot of money for Ronaldo they would have won more UCL had they kept him. Beckham, Stam, Nistelrooy had many good years ahead in their careers when they left the club.

Chai. That Man

Selling your best player for non footballing reasons when they can be easily resolved.

Keane might be a crazy guy, but I have a feeling that he's not entirely at fault when he had issues with sir Alex which led to him leaving eventually. I'm sure Sir Alex too get him own for hand grin
It just happened that Keane
is one of those crazy guys that don't tolerate shit from people no matter who those people are.

I guess that's the human side of Sir Alex. He's not perfect so I'll just let it pass.

Most of our real life heroes have one or two ugly dark side to their personalities. We will just have to make do with their good sides

Vidic was never as quick, could never play the ball like Stam and could not last as long as Stam.

Stam clearly had impressive longevity something which Vidic did not have clearly shown in his latter stages of his United career and his disastrous Inter Milan spell.

Stam was still performing exceptionally well at Lazio and Ac Milan in which he was almost in his mid thirties. Vidic retired at age 34 in which center backs should stil be able to contribute at a respectable level.

Stam is the greatest defender ever to play in the EPL..

But Ferguson is useless sha. Why did he sell him?

After reading about Some of his decisions regarding player sales and Aquisitions Post 1999 treble , I had to believe that he was the main reason why we didn't win at least 2 more UCL trophies between 1999 and 2008.

It was no coincidence that his decisions was why we ended up having defensive problems within those periods. And he crowned it all with the Glazers in 2005.
