As Sylvanus Okpala put it. If Liverpool had signed Uche, would he insist for the Liverpool coaching crew that he wants to play the way Villarreal used him? It was pure indiscipline.

Okpala was the one explaining all Keshi fraudulent actions. So when Keshi recall him was it because he no longer insisting on team tactics? How will you believe a player insist on the team tactics.
Players will normally complain or speak to the coach if they feel they are not being use properly. I good coach will explain to his player why he want him to play in certain position. It's call man management

chrisooblog:
Egbon I still feel Keshi should have found a way to take Uche to the 2014 WC. After all this same troublesome Uche was recalled by Keshi for the AFCON 2015 qualifiers when Nigeria was in danger of missing out.

Bro God bless you, na your wife you go marry 👍

ChrisKels:
Una dun dey raise stupid arguments over here. So, Amunike was denied for being Igbo? so why was Okechukwu Keshi hired? Why was Christian Chukwu hired? Even Ogochukwu Oliseh even though the efulefu does not know his identity? At age grade, Nduka Ugbade, Amunike, John Obuh.

Since Yemi Tela in 2007 and Onigbinde in 2002 can you name another Yoruba coach and why aren't any Yoruba crying over that? Okay, who are the Fulani coaches or Hausa coaches being hired in place of the almighty Amunike?

I wish this site is not archaic, aswear there are too many monikers to block for my mental health.

Bro only Goodjoe and one other Monica made that claim address them directly.

Kog45:
Rohr picked Idowu,Simmy Nwankwo right but he is not a fraud but Keshi na fraud

Sir, Keshi own too much how do you defend selecting Amoebi, uchebo(Mr flavor), nwafor, Ruben, Gambo(confederations Cup) How? 🙄

Kog45:
Look Keshi have seen it all and told Osaze point-blank play my tactics or get out.....the same Osaze that criticized Lagerback for starting Chinedu Obaze ahead of him during 2010 WC,telling whole world that Siasia was not fit to handle Olympics team after the tournament......Osaze talked to much,hope you remember how he almost ruined Kanu marriage

But Osaze the talkative and instigator still went to the world cup but ike Uche didn't.
In all these, Osaze is still one player that gives his all for the country, one of my favourite Nigeria player.

Kog45:
Keshi was not,fact if am in Keshi shoe Uche will not make my team.....Uche frustrated Keshi during Afcon.He dropped him for bad influence, criticizing your coach and still want to be part of the team...I thought Osaze made the team..Echiejele replaced Taiwo perfectly.

At the end Keshi reached 2nd round of WC that Westerhoff reached,so nothing like fraud.

Westerhoff and Keshi remain the bests.

Yea Keshi remains the best when it comes to achievements with the national team but doesn't change the fact some of the players selected for that world cup were fraud. Ike Uche never had any disciplinary record until that Afcon, his of was criticizing his coach tactics not like he was attacking Keshi personally but his tactics, what wrong with that. That's why in Nigeria when someone criticised reforms of a government we see it as attack on the president.
We are all like our leaders.

TheGoodJoe:
Then Osaze went to the field and refused to play Keshi's tactics, doing what he likes. Leave those guys had strong heads and lacked respect.

Fans cry for them but don't know the headaches they were causing Keshi.

Same Osaze that got us the goal that qualify us for second round.

Kog45:
fraudulent Nigerian?

Bro it was fraudulent ike Uche was one of our highest goal scorer during the qualifiers and also doing very well for his club, Osaze, Taiwo were all doing well but he took Amoebi, uchebo, babatunde, nwafor and that guy that replaced onazi against France. None made any progress after that World Cup

Odunayaw:
The example was a poor one.

Na you go do that assignment o. And you can also fight fans on all social media who don't want to see AE or EA near the team because of that fated WCQ

which Fans, no be me and you make up the fans abi e get where them gather get meeting.

Odunayaw:
Sack? Peseiro was sacked?

Smh

His contract was not renewed. He was given a target of semifinal, but he surpass the target.

Kog45:
Uche goofed during Afcon by questioning Keshi tactics...Keshi gave Martins the opportunity against Kenya and his performance was damn too poor.....compared Martins and Ameobi performance against Kenya and Italy?

That's exactly our problem every world cup year we have this one player that shines in one friendly and base on that we feel he's better than the ones we had. Ogbeche, Idowu, uchebo, Amoebi comes to mind. I recall he only picked Osaze last minute due to cry from fans.

Kog45:
Getting most caps doesn't not equate performances.

i wasn't actually referring to performance. I'm pained that Keshi gave that guy a cap when ike Uche and Martin were there. That singular act gave him the bragging right to claim Nigeria ex international.

Odunayaw:
The natural thing is to quickly hire a coach in the group stage of an ongoing Afcon abi

How is this the same thing with AE/EA case fgs

i use Fae as an example, numerous clubs and countries sack the head coach and the assistant take over. But for Amunike it always different. Who was SE assistant when we failed to qualify for the previous world cup or the last afcon we fail to qualify.

Odunayaw:
Finidi rode on the high note Peseiro left. For Fae, was the Ivory Coast Football Federation supposed to conduct an interview during a tournament?

😂 You feel all nations conduct that fraudulent interview nff is always conducting. Ena can make excuse, rode on high note but sack the person that took you to the high note then conduct interview and select the assistant of the person that took you to that high note. Make that make sense.

Samueltemi337:
Alex Iwobi overtakes Nwankwo Kanu to become Nigerian with 2nd most PL appearances.

Seeing Shola there I feel somehow but it is what it is.

kentebemoney:
You go leave job wey dem dey pay you almost 10k dollars a month for wetin no sure
Laugh joor

That's the thing he's very comfortable in that position answering technical director meanwhile he's just a spare coach 😂

jihday:
the natural thing was for Peseiro assistant who had been with the team for a while and is also a league winner to takeover not everybody clamored for your Emmanuel ‘fired in Egypt and Zambia’ Amunike. Carry your useless agenda away from here

How is that now a natural thing when a coach and his crew were poor according to you.

jihday:
comparing grapes and apples, Amunike was fired alongside Sia1 and the whole crew and Keshi was employed was Keshi a Hausa man? Fae was hired in tournament and that was the sensible thing to do, can’t fire the whole crew during a tournament.

why can't the whole crew be fired since the head coach and his crew were poor according to you. Pls nowhere did I mentioned tribe or ethnicity, I was only pointing out your double standard when it comes to Amunike. Now you find excuse why an assistant shouldn't be fired bt in Amunike case you begin sing different song 🤦‍♂️

Napoleon55:
You are still making body movement and dancing,but u go soon talk true.
The bolded is one of the techniques he uses to disguise hiss passes.
There are many of them he uses to dribble, shoot,pass etc. that set him and people like him apart

Bro this discussion started when I questioned yahaya inclusion on your list as Nigeria top 10 most skillful player, and you defended your list by saying you have seen him doing a rabona. Now I'm telling you that doing a rabona alone or even a step over is not enough to be rank as most skillful. I give you example of kanu, never seen doing a rabona or step over but we all agree he's one of Nigeria most skillful player.

DABIGATRAN:
We have won the U-17 world cup only 5 times since its inception. Amunike has 2: one as assistant coach, another as head coach.

Amunike took a rag-tag Tanzanian team through the AFCON qualifiers and secured the ticket.

Amunike played for top clubs like Sporting Lisbon and Barcelona.

Amunike scored decisive goals that won Nigeria international laurels.

Amunike has a top coaching license.

Stop the hate guys!!

Oga we just hired a new coach and he's yet to play his first game wait for when there's vacancies for the SE job then you can start this Amunike campaign.

jihday:
but if I say Keshi dropping Martins and Taiwo is tribalism you’ll start to argue, I’m not surprised by your shallow thought tho just think you can do better

Same Keshi that dropped ike Uche even when he was one of our best player. Abeg die this talk.

DABIGATRAN:
I would think that Eguavon is a mockery of the term "technical director" because he clearly is not. He is just a stand-in coach unfortunately.

He is eminently qualified to be one but the hawkish politicians wouldn't allow any reasonable thought to prevail.

I thought it was part of the roles of technical teams to shop for coaches.

Eguavoen should goan coach an NPL side and leave that technical director thing he's doing or better still go for refresher course and stop waiting on the sideline for coaches to be sacked so he can come in as interim.

Napoleon55:
Oga u said that Ronaldinho is considered the most skillful because of the techniques he uses to executes his skills, I agree with u.

Pls what are the names of those techniques ,I no won hear body movement because it's not a particular technique.

Let's say he want to execute those skills u listed like dribbling, passing and shooting,
What are the names of the techniques Ronaldinho would use in executing his dribbles, passing and shooting that distinct him from others?

This is simple enough.

Dinho was renowned for his close ball control allowing him to navigate tight spaces. his dribbling abilities, free-kick accuracy, his use of tricks, feints, no-look passes, and overhead kicks, as well as his ability to score and create goals. These are all what makes Dinho very skillful. I don't know what you want me to say again. Step overs abi Rabona alone can't make Dinho the most skill player. Finito

JohnBullMySon:
Hmm na today I dey hear this talk say one na head and the other one na assistant.

No be collabo coachila dem do? 😂😂

Goodjoe is right you don't put the failure of a head coach on the assistant. Finidi was Peseiro assistant and was employed even after sacking peseiro. Ivory Coast hire Fae an assistant to the head coach. But when it comes to Amuneke it all changes, he must also carry the blame. That's why Goodjoe feels there's a conspiracy against Amuneke

Napoleon55:
Like the kind of body movement u have been making evading my questions?
Nice try.

😂

opes:
Dont mind them. We failed to qualify for 2012, 2015 and 2017 AFCON under indigenous coaches. Now, they are promoting them again, not that they are doing anything spectacular presently.

Him not Them, you dy fear to face goodjoe 😂

Napoleon55:
I actually meant for u to choose between the second and third question,instead u said above and more.
meanwhile which techniques does he usually apply in executing the "above and more" u meant?

Ronaldinho is more of body movement, For example watch his step over or pass and that of other players, what make his exciting to watch is the body movement

TheGoodJoe:
LOL.

No wonder John Obuh suffered sabotage too.

I remember reading about him complaining of not even having food for his U17 team and having to feed the with Cabin biscuits and pure water. NFF. Shaking my head.

Don't you think it's due to lack of organisation from the nff because numerous coaches have face this same issue. Siasia face this at u20 and even the Olympic, so bro it's not ethnic whatever but corruption or lackadaisical attitude of our football managers.

GMBOFASIA:
Rest for the useless talk is Christain Chukwu a northerner or even Keshi Even the CHAN team is co headead by illechukwu is he a northerner Mtcheew Amunike isn’t good stop saying nonsense I Belive you are old enough aside age grade u-17 what has Amunike achieved failed in several other Job He should be there waiting for super eagle job he should go out and prove him self nonsense

Why you come dy pour your anger on innocent Amunike 😂 😂 😂

TheGoodJoe:
Story. Amunike's case is pure ethnicity. They know he is good. If Amunike was a Northerner or Yoruba man, he would have landed that job in a flash. Let us tell ourselves the truth. That was why his U17 team was the most sabotaged and his U20 suffered the same. That was why they had a cold reception after winning the U17 World Cup.

Unless you have a credible reason, I only see his ethnicity as the problem.

Uhmmm Goodjoe 🤦‍♂️I'll disagree with you. I do place Amuneke in same bracket I put Oliseh. Most of the the guys at nff won't want these guys as coach of SE cos it will be problem for them. Oliseh only got the job due to Pinnick influence.

Napoleon55:
You agreed that Ronaldinho is the most skillful player of all time.

Now,these questions for u.

1.Why does the world think Ronaldinho is the most skillful footballer?

2.Is it by doing these basic things like heading,shooting, defending,passing and ball control u listed here as skills better than others?

3.Or is it by executing something else more technically challenging and tricky on the pitch?

His technique in executing the above and more as a midfielder. Say for step over he's not the best Robinho and Denilson take that for me.
Rabona Zizou is the baba. But Dinho can do much more.

Kog45:
Pls baba can you explain how ethnicity contributed to inability of Amunike not securing eagles job.....eagles coaching job is above ethnicity o

Amunike not securing SE job have nothing to do with his ethnicity, that's a lame comment. But I feel the NFF don't want to hire Amunike due to some other reasons which has nothing to do with his ability. Maybe he's seen as another Oliseh who's not cool headed.
I listen to an interview of the former nff boss, and he was saying that there are so many things that happen with our indigenous coach which he don't want to mention. And from his tone sound unhappy with finidi, saying he resigned few days to an important match.
