I feel so sad.
He was my school-mate and also roommate during our secondary schl days, He was in yellow-house and was the assistant-class captain of JSS1B, ADFIBSS Egbu, Owerri Imo state. I can still remember how we used to challenge ourselves, who's more intelligent, stronger, better footballer, dancer, singer etc and those senior students in the room then were constantly punishing us for making noise.
since 2010, i have been trying to reunite with my schlmates/roommates. searching on facebk. So sad that i discovered your fbk profile 6 days ago with the R.I.P shared by one of our roommates.

Rest In Peace Anthony Erondu cry cry cry cry cry cry cry cry cry

Mickael2:
You do understand that he is playing up top with Ideye abi? So we still need an out and out striker, Iheanacho plays off a striker, something you can call playing as a false striker or a support striker sometimes so no, we still need a striker
yeah i understand. but since this 'out and out striker' tactics is not fetching us any goal, even half a goal, i think it's better we start making use of the "in and in striker" tactics. grin grin
what do you think?

SportsRe: All The News About The Olympic Eagles (U-23) HERE! by Xlad(m):
Sia1 is a nice and good coach but his problems all the time are "favouritism" and "my boys". I wouldn't be surprised if he decides to include Chibuzor Okonkwo in this team.
I don't see any reason why he should include Ighalo. As it stands now, K. Iheanacho is nigerian's most lethal striker if not african most lethal striker based on his accuracy ratings. He was better than Aguero, De Bruyne, Bony, Nevas etc. He drops back to get the ball and also makes those enticing runs/moves, while Ighalo always want the ball to come to him before he can do anything. And which defender will just be there standing and watching him get the ball and score a goal? That's why he found it difficult to replicate his scoring ability in the B part of last season because coaches and defenders have studied and brought out MANY ways of dealing and starving him from getting the ball.
I prefer having A. Samuel, Chikatara and even Oshimen/O. Kayode to Ighalo in this olympic team because all these players always work very hard to score goals.

About Issac Success; he won best player of the season in his club due to his contributions as a winger and not as a striker. Some of us including I are optimistic for him to return to that position of a striker, but we don't know about the future. like Bale from a defensive position to one of the world most expensive wingers. Lets encourage Success more as a winger, i have a faith that he will develop fully to be among the world most fearful wingers. He has the pace, strength, energy, skills and nice"football mentality" than M. Simeon, V. Moses and A. Musa.
In my own opinion, i strongly think S. Moses and Musa still play 80s, 90s pattern of football as a winger. Always putting the ball on the run till the reach the corner-kick flag before they can cross the ball. While modern wingers like Neymar, Sanchez, Hazard, Issac Success tongue always cut-in anytime they are with the ball. this just ended season, Success is our best winger for now.

I like all these players oooh grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

SportsRe: Samson Siasia The New Super Eagles Manager.. by Xlad(m): 6:10pm On Feb 26, 2016
yes

[b]Nigeria has re-appointed Samson Siasia as Head Coach of the Senior National Football Team, Super Eagles. He will work with respected tactician Salisu Yusuf, FIFA U-17 World Cup –winner Emmanuel Amuneke and Alloy Agu for the upcoming 2017 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Egypt.

The combination was recommended by the NFF Technical and Development Committee following Sunday Oliseh’s resignation on twitter in the early hours of Friday.

Siasia served as Super Eagles’ Head Coach between December 2010 and October 2011, before his contract was terminated following the team’s failure to qualify for the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations.

Amuneke led the Nigeria U-17 boys to a fifth FIFA World Cup title in Chile last year and was hailed for his excellent comportment and maturity, as well as the tremendous skills of his players.

Salisu Yusuf and Alloy Agu were in the immediate past crew led by Oliseh and will serve as the bridge with the new team as Nigeria gets set for a potentially –explosive double date with the Pharaohs in March.


Siasia and Amuneke are among few ex-Nigeria internationals who boast impressive track record in coaching. Amuneke, who has a UEFA Pro licence, was assistant to Manu Garba when the Nigeria U-17 squad won a fourth FIFA World Cup title in 2013, and then headed the crew that successfully defended the trophy last year.

Siasia steered the Nigeria U-20 team to the African title in 2005 and led the team to runner-up spot at the FIFA U-20 World Cup in The Netherlands the same year. He also led the U-23 to silver medal in the men’s football tournament of the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, and two months ago, led the U-23 to win the Africa U-23 Cup of Nations in Senegal, in the process qualifying the team to this year’s Olympics.

Both men scored as Nigeria achieved an impressive debut at the FIFA World Cup in the USA in 1994. Amuneke scored against Bulgaria and Italy and Siasia scored against Argentina.

Amuneke also scored the two goals as Nigeria edged Zambia to win the Africa Cup of Nations for the first time on away soil in Tunis in 1994, and also scored the winner as Nigeria defeated Argentina to win Africa’s first Olympics football gold in USA two years later.

Contrary to claims by Oliseh that he was being owed wages and did not receive support from the NFF, top officials confirmed to thenff.com that he was this week paid the sum of N20 million, being salaries for three months (December 2015, January 2016 and February 2016) and half-year rent for July-December 2015. He was signed on in July 2015. The only money he is owed is the bonus for the World Cup qualifier against Swaziland in Port Harcourt in November 2015, which the NFF had promised to pay players and officials on resumption of camping for the matches against Egypt.

Chairman of the NFF Technical and Development Committee, Chris Green told thenff.com: “The new crew has the mandate to reach out to the very best Nigerian players anywhere. The matches against Egypt would not be picnics and we need our very best for those contests.”[/b]
