Re: 'Mathematical ' is livid! Who can blame him?

Lest one forgets, couple the man's coaching style with his emasculating utterances. He strips the lads of the Naija traditional can-do psyche. No matter what, the institution we call the Super Eagles does not have a culture of entering the pitch with timidity, even when we had periods of rebuilding ...

Re: 'Mathematical ' is livid! Who can blame him?

At some point (hopefully sooner rather than later) we will have football administrators who understand and/or take seriously the concept of football philosophy and why it is something you have to not just understand and articulate but crystallize by ensuring that most (if not all) of your resources...

Re: PINNICK SAYS ROHR IS STAYING : WILL GO FOR REFRESHER COU

Personally, I am not for, or against Rohr staying; however, the coach needs to be told he must make some little-little changes here and there. For example, he needs to have multiple playing formations we can switch to if our initial game-plan doesn't work. Listen to yourself, Bros. Why is it necess...

Let me get this straight... How many of our ex-players have Pinnick and his NFF sent on refresher courses? Wouldn't that be a better investment towards the future? Why is a 66 year-old foreign coach on traineeship with our national team, an institution like the Super Eagles? :curse: :scared: :curse...

Re: Naijiant.com calls for Rohr's head

I was done with the fraud once I saw the Super Eagles to Three Lions. The lack of ideas was glaring to all who have eyes. Only the dishonest will wish a continued relationship with Rohr. Quite frankly, I have had it with German coaches. There is no fit with Super Eagles. Begone Rohr! Adios! Please ...

Re: ROHR FAILED....

With South Korea's performance over Germany it makes a mockery of Rohr's daft perspective. One thing I admire about the Asian teams particularly South Korea and Japan is that they play without fear . If their players had the quality of African players they'd do far better. That, right there, is the...

Re: I AM CONFLICTED ABOUT RETAINING ROHR

Rohr did well. Put things in perspective. In this world cup, every team put 11 players behind the ball as soon as they lost possession. It makes it hard for anyone to find space. Even Croatia, normally an offensive minded team, put 9 or 11 men behind the ball as soon as they lost possession against...

Re: I AM CONFLICTED ABOUT RETAINING ROHR

If we are truly forward-thinking, we should have a pool of local coaches to take care of the future. Gernot Rohr is 64 and, being in his twilight, can only rake in his windfall from his African adventures. Pension guaranteed for him. What is guaranteed for our football, with his style? Exits at the ...

However unstable we might seem for asking Rohr to go, it is PLAIN that he doesn't share our Nigerian dogged mentality. By pedigree, our football culture is not about being timid and cowardly. It is one thing to go down fighting, it is entirely another to be eliminated due to a submissive coaching at...

Re: Our coach’s mentality doesn’t reflect the Nigerian minds

Why are we arguing about probability. It DOES NOT matter what the probability is, makes no difference whatsoever. I could care less if the probability of Nigeria winning was 1 in a Billion, I would still expect the coach to go out there to win! Rohr has no idea what job he took on, and even when he...
