Not only on football even as a nation.I have been to South Africa twice and I want to say structurally they are ahead in every sectors,so not a news.

Didier Drogba said something about South Africa and you said the same thing.Drogba said he was surprised that despite finances and facilities countries like Nigeria,Ivory Coast and Senegal are still ahead of South Africa in Africa football development.

Some will come out and say we’re giant of Africa lol 😂

Comparing Nigeria to South Africa in terms of sport is comparing epl to NNL2

The only thing we have in Africa is natural freak athletes i mean we have people who can beat the odds with little or no training due to their genes and our natural strong head

But in terms of unearthing and shaping foundation for our athletes we’re a joke

maidaboi:
So South Africa is more elite than SE in Africa? Lmao mcheew

Are you high ?

What is lmao stop wallowing on ignorance they may not have the best players but thier
Facilities.
Fans.
Salary
League and entire board as a whole is at least 10 years ahead of ours

If the opportunity arises do you think our boys won’t desert Npfl for South Africa

maidaboi:
oga we are elite in Africa

Ok 👍

That’s why we’ve won afcon 7 times in a row

That’s why our league is at the very pinnacle in Africa

That’s why we hosted the 2010 World Cup

The why we’ve won all caf tournaments

That’s why we have the best stadiums 🏟

That’s why we have the best facilities

Truly we’re elite in Africa and deserve to host 2026 World Cup

mostob:
That job too small sef.... he should organize coaching class for the like of Pochettino, Tegwolo, Tuchel and Xavi.

You be character 🤣

Tessyy1701:


At the bolded, Rohr is not local neither Josē and what did they gave Us?

You’re making sound like we’re an elite footballing country


Yes we love football as much as we love Air

But we’re not close to being an elite footballing country

Have you seen our gym 🤣
Have you seen where our player’s do cardio?

We’re 10 years behind leading countries in terms of football knowledge grooming and facilities

Don’t expect a coach to teach us to play Tiki taka when cross and nod and jam body has been all we know

First take care of your house before calling peseiro or rohr a poor coach

TheGoodJoe:


Amunike has not just been a coach but has worked multiple times as a consultant to FIFA and CAF committees. None of the players are qualified coaches, so that point is irrelevant. The debate is who is best qualified between Amunike or Finidi. Anyone saying Finidi is just being biased. Any other tale is fantasy.

Both amunike and finidi are irrelevant and severely backward in the coaching department

None of them is my choice anyone wins is none of my business at least no be only go watch 2026 W/C without eagles

TheGoodJoe:


Amunike has CAF A license, Finidi doesn't.

Which is not gonna change anything this has drag on for far too long

Corruption is the light in Nigeria know this and know peace

Both candidates are severely under qualified for the eagles job by the way

The more likeable among both inside the cartel won take it as it is

Abi you no go support eagles since your fav didn’t win

TheGoodJoe:


I am saying they gave someone with a lower qualification in all ramifications. And then tried spinning a lie about it. Just agree he does not have it and move on than people trying to spin that he has it. If Finidi has it, show me a media report when he got it. If not, let us agree NFF went with someone of lower qualification and hope he does well.

I don’t care even if he has it or not

Because I’m not sold on any our local coaches at all

No matter who they picked as long as it’s a local coach expect haram football for the next 4 years

You can’t tell me we should pick coaches that players are even more exposed to modern football than the coaches themselves

Oasis007:




....this was last year nah. How are you sure he has not completed the course by now.

He doesn’t even need the course o for Christ sake

TheGoodJoe:


I am yet to see that record. I have only seen where Finidi, last December was told not to have a seat in the docks because he did not have a UEFA Pro Coaching License.


Finito.

Beht Watin finidi need the uefa pro license for ?

Exactly last time i remember he was coaching Nigeria and not Austria 🇦🇹

He’s not coaching a European team

And the license is not needed for afcon or World Cup so i no understand what’s going on here

You’re saying nff gave an unqualified client the job ?

You’re saying nff didn’t do a background check ?

Bruf you’re better than this

brain54:

Stop smoking dude...

It helps calm me down 😔

LZAA:

All those things are youth tournaments and most of those boys were overaged
Siasia is average

The sad truth we don’t wanna hear

brain54:

Am I your teacher...

Or don't you have Google?

Guess he said that to the nff board that’s why he didn’t get the job lmao 🤣

brain54:
Amunike has a more impressive coaching cv...

State his CV

komekn:


My question ❓ is concise and specific to avoid the rantings of a FANATICAL devoid of objectivity emotive prejudiced person like you.

So before you start with nonsensical propositions self birthed from your limited understanding. Please stick within the scope of the question ❓

Be specific stop 🛑 acting like a politician answer the question specifically.

Bro all these on top a few paragraphs from the man

Have mercy lmao 🤣

Interesting 🤔

kingphilip:

Is the 2013 trophy that far?

The maths is not matching lol 😂

Devvy4:
You did this shit against city in both legs and you're still doing it today



Fvck this slow bastard!

You must be fun at parties

TheSuperNerd:


Lol... that will not be good. Chelsea ladies already did a huge damage in that first leg in Spain. I would love to see how Barca femeni responds in England.


Meanwhile... just like what I said... Jude is now officially Barca's Enemy Number 1. Possibly the most hated Madrid player to Barca fans now. Lol

Belligol 👑

TheGoodJoe:


Are you saying they don't have calendar or know the date to do things at the right time. They had the time to scout, select, screen, but did not have time to appoint a coach to do it the right way. Please.

The excuse too poor e no warrant a reply lol

jihday:
you were talking about Manu now you’ve jumped to NFF I’m sure now you know the drunk person

God damn you’ve a thick skull

How did the entire point flew over your head is beyond me


The point is nff should have known about the tournament for months or a year
So should the potential coaches that’ll selected for the job

So saying there’s not enough time sounds really dumb

But there’s enough time to carry out an mri and select 51 players

jihday:
and you are very foolish for spitting rubbish, why will I take my son for a nonexistent trial? Do England or Spain do open screening or they just pick players from clubs?

Wow it’s called a metaphor 😂

Nobody mentioned anything about them being a true trial held

jihday:
I hate this thing Nigerians do, they see a headline and just conclude it’s definitely fraud at work. Never seen a bunch of people who hate their country so much like Nigerians

You must be silly for saying this

If you took your son to the trials and they turned you back that the team is full

Same team that was claimed to be assembled few days ago then you wouldn’t be saying this

jihday:
you people should try to act reasonable na, there’s a tournament in few weeks time but you are here asking the coach to do open screening. There are academies scatter all over the country, Garba is a coach with plenty experience at youth level so you think unless egunje he can’t assemble 50 players ?

You should act reasonable

We all know in 2026 there would be a World Cup in June

So you’re telling me nff knew about this wafu B u-17 tournament last week ??

You must be high is cheap ogogoro

Why do we hold open trials for the best sprinters and Olympians all over the country to attend

But once it comes to soccer the coach knows best

TheGoodJoe:


Osimhen made it through an open screening. He did not even make the first cut. It was an assistant that intervened and told Amunike to give Osimhen another shot and Amunike watched him closely and saw his quality.

If it is with this bent system, Osimhen won't go near.

Recommendation is not a free pass into a squad. It is to join the screening process among the selected ones.

In this case, even the coach did not select the players. Let us call a spade what it is. This is wrong and terrible. We have suffered recently in the U17 because of stopping the open screening process. It is the key ingredient that makes us stand out.

By the way, this is not about recommendation but a corrupt selection. The NFF should openly defend the selection process or hide their heads in shame.

Finito.

The best players don’t have transportation and hotel money to come to Abuja for trials

Not to mention the resources it’ll take to joining a top academy and have a slim shot at trials

Our future in youth football is not bright at all

TheGoodJoe:


Las Las, everybody go chop breakfast SHAYO O!

Watin concern me for example I flew abroad to make it in football and now I’m an osimehn caliber of player and you expected me to play for 9ja that rejected me like plague lol

Kog45:
Sir Joe,I don’t know much about Osimhen breaking through with under 17 but I know he was a popular Lagos youth player with Ultimate Strikers academy in Ojota.How he got to under 17 camp,sincere I don’t know but King Kanu joined eaglets based on Westerhof recommendation…..so open trial or recommendation,[/b]all we need is a coach with no sentiment to give us better team for the future.[b]

Shikena and we should stop this f0olish narratives that academy players are the best mind out there 😂

This is not university where only those who are educated can do it


Football na general market

TheGoodJoe:


I think that the midfield is untouchable is the biggest hoax. For Manu Garba to complain about the defenders, they must be crap storm. 😂

They have screened them, means cleared for the competition without a coach. You can imagine.

Fun fact did you know our 2019 u-17 main team

Lost twice to a group of players from delta state that came for the u-17 trials but in the end none of those players from delta state made the team 🤣

Some of the players were carried along to Brazil as fans i nearly faint

TheGoodJoe:


As in eh!

This corrupt folks are hell bent on blocking every route for struggling young men. I really pray a source comes for the younger ones because it is our national team that will suffer at the end.

The truth is that these players that are forced on coaches most of them later fall out and will not even be considered to super E

In the end na who do well statistically and play for a big team constantly we go still pick

Take note of players like anayo and co that lost to Mexico in friendly how many of them are in super eagles now

This rubbish can happen in younger teams but in super eagles we go rebel

TheGoodJoe:


This time they did MRI screening before appointing coach.

Because we’re sheeps who goes wherever the shepherd tells us

Did mri before approving a coach

Who the selected the players ??

elunico:

Lots of 9ja babes would be so mad rn
