junnyjake:
pochetino is a young manager and there's still room for him to improve.

Moreover, Spurs don't have a big squad, so his options are limited.
Being young in management terms doesn't cut it as an excuse. He's been at spurs for 5yrs! And he didn't join them as a rookie manager did he? undecided

What the majority of Naija fans truely deserve is a manager who would call up a completely unheard of Gabriel Okechukwu for an important qualifier and give him the no.10 shirt for a country as big in the game as Nigeria and leaves him on the bench! Then when his team starts crumbling he doesn't have to have the balls to bring him on. Haha

They deserve a manager who would play Seth Sincere in the heart of defence in an important qualifier instead of several other defenders supposedly well ahead of him in the pecking order ....and drop points in the process.

They deserve mangers who would call up Igobun and Onobi and leave out Mikel and Ighalo, as our African guardiola once did. obvious choices abi?

They deserve foreign managers only interested in managing their team in the world cup for 3 games and after losing out don't even bother returning with the team.

Thank God for Pinnick. With the man being more clever than the majority of fans I can continue to trust him to continue protecting you from yourselves.

NB: this is not a Rohr manifesto, just a reminder of where we were not very long ago and where we are now.

We have over flogged this Rhor issue on this thread I had promised myself I won't be adding an extra word to the insanity I have been reading here since yesterday.

Look Rohr is not perfect. He only needs to improve in reading the game as it unfolds before his eyes. In every other facet of managing a team he is good enough and so for me he is at the same level as the players he is managing.

His handicap may yet come to haunt us, this is a possibility if he doesn't improve but I think his good far out weighs his bad. We are lucky to have him right now. Every international coach needs at least 2 tournaments to be fairly judged. We'll see how we get on next year.

By the way why haven't Spurs sacked Pochenttino? His reading of games is just like Rohr's.

You missed o. I watched every single minute of every game. That was my introduction to watching us play qualifiers, and hence my high expectations of any team in gwg.

any fair and transparent coach....will do better with this array of talents.....

the bane I indigenous coaches is corruption and this player agents-coaching sorting things....besides that our Indigenous coaches like siasia will even do better.

why can't our coaches and other professionals have integrity....?

I saw Eze in action last night and i'm afraid those clamouring for him to be capped have got a point. If that lad continues to develop for another year the way he has done in the last season, we will be in another tussle with the English FA and we will lose him. I assure you on this outcome of it comes to a straightforward decision between England and Nigeria.

Travel › Re: Samuel Getachew Complains Of Extortion By Immigration Officers At MMIA, Lagos by wayodude(m):
This is not news. I visited Nigeria last year using a foreign passport and a travel certificate. I applied for a Nigerian passport in June as I knew I will be travelling there in September. Come September I went to the Nigerian high commission but still no passport because they still didn't have any booklets lol

They eventually said 'okay we will give you an emergency travel certificate to travel to Nigeria and you can use your British passport when returning'. This was what I aimed to do but at the Lagos airport on my way back they were asking me for stuff that I didn't even know what they meant.

They did offer me a quick solution though, you can guess what it entailed yea?

After which they said thank you oga, greet Theresa May for us lol crazy people

If we want foreign coaches, why do we always go for carpenter foreign coaches who have not achieved anything major before they coach the eagles. We keep killing the Eagles brand with these legbere foreign coaches.
Can we afford the non 'legbere' foreign coaches you crave? are those non 'legbere' coaches willing to manage a team at Nigerias level ?

What did Sven achieve with ivory coast?
What did Bob Bradley achieve with Egypt?
What did Avram Grant achieve with Ghana?
What has Seedorf done since he took over Cameroon?

The coaches above the level I have mentioned above are the true A-listers (Pep, Klopp, Emery etc) who we simply cannot entice to come and be following us to play games in Mogadishu lol

Rohr can do better but for me he is doing okay.

By the way, what does legbere mean? asking for a friend. grin

Just wait let afcon tournament start. He can scrap thru the qualifiers but will be exposed again like in Russia. Don't know what more evidence we need again
I disagree. Rohr has his bad days in the office like everyone does. He is okay in my view. For once we are benefiting from continuity and harmony in the team. Who would have ever associated us with those words!?

Good one Pinnick!
Good one Rohr!

ngadaAwo:
ok

outside the real world production aspect of engineering can be seen everywhere and everyday unlike plant

for example if you visit a foundry shop or a crankshaft industry you'll see things yourself

I choose production because it gives you room for self development and entrepreneurship in your field
for example if you really studied well like me (not boasting oo)
you can easily design construct and mass produce mechanical fasteners easily with your CNC cheesy
all you need is just a workshop and a CNC machine and boom you're now a production company cheesy

again in foundry field which is a multi million naira field
many people that knows what's up are taping into it
you wonder where those metal scrap picking guys deposit their scrap metals?
yes it's in foundry shops
they will melt it down cast it into billets and resell to steel producing companies
many opportunities in production aspects of mechanical engineering i can't write down
Just a clue
Excellent.

[quote author=charlesemeka85 post=72094734]rohr should stick with john ogu while we watch this emerging midfield dynamo slip off our fingers

huh embarassed

Why is Ogu your example here? Remind me of 1 bad game he has had for Nigeria.

Sure, we should try to get players we think can improve the team but I think it is disrespectful to talk the way you have about active, dedicated players the way you have especially when they are yet to put a foot wrong.
Career › Re: Thread For Mechanical Engineers... by wayodude(m):
Graduated BEng from ATBU Bauchi in 2003 Mechanical/Production Eng;
MSc Manufacturing Systems Eng. University of Hertfordshire 2005;
C.Eng 2012 Institution of Engineering and Technology.

Some of my input may be controversial but I think at least some bits will surely be helpful.

1. If your goal is to become a professional engineer (in Nigeria COREN, in the UK Chartered C.Eng, in the US P.Eng) my advice is to grab the UK spec online, link below

https://www.engc.org.uk/engcdocuments/internet/website/UK-SPEC%20third%20edition%20(1).pdf

Review this document and understand the requirements for each tier of professional registration. I am sure this will be beneficial even if you are applying for COREN or P.Eng. with this you will know what you need to be doing to be eligible for what you want to do.

2. If you are able to take on a post graduate course in mechanical or another discipline relevant to your aspirations then do it now, while you're still fresh from the rigours of uni life. My advice here is if you are unable to do a master's degree in a better university than where you did your B.Eng, then don't do it yet. Wait!

3. Polish your soft skills. This advice is more for those who studied in Nigeria and have lived in Nigeria all their lives but would like to gain international exposure for career development. I have met many Nigerian kids where this has presented a bigger problem then their ability.

4. Basic knowledge of using CAD, understanding Primavera, advanced excel etc is helpful but not critical. What's more important is your adaptability and ability to learn quickly on the job. Understanding interrogating a database from novice level today to super user in a matter of days or maybe a couple of weeks depending on complexity. Now that's boss!

5. Finally, not everyone who graduates in Mech Eng will become an engineer. I reckon 70% will never have a role in mechanical. Some will go into project management, research, project planning, project controls, etc etc it's not a sign of failure. It's just the way it is. You could still do excellently well outside of being a professional mechanical engineer.

Good luck to all my Engineering brother's/sisters out there.
