Re: Nwakali in hot water for being on phone on subs’ bench
Only Nigerian media is reporting this. The commonality in all the reports is that there are no details and no official has been quoted. My take, pure speculation at best. Nigerian media should stop engaging in junk journalism

Re: Finidi George's Wages?.....Interesting.
The only plausible conclusion here is that Finidi’s salary is undisclosed. Everything else is pure conjecture

Re: FINIDI GEORGE, SUPER EAGLES COACH: FOOTBALL IS HARD AND TAKES IT'S TOLL
Finidi’s temperament is similar to that of late coach Amodu, he doesn’t get too up or down, he’s even tempered but deceptively extremely focused and ambitious. A lot of other coaches would’ve been happy earning fx in Spain and stuck it out with Mallorca youth teams hoping some day God will bless th...

Re: Inside story of why NFF picked Finidi George over Amuneke for Super Eagles job
Why do people insist on calling him Amuneke? Am I missing something? But we’ve been told that his real name is Amuneke and Amunike came about by some typo in his name many years ago. And he just adopted it, similar to John Mikel Obi. Ok O! Its not “okay o” at all. He actually came out publicly to c...

Re: The NFF should give Finidi a contract that will end after the WC 2026
I agree that a semi final clause is stupid. But YOU SUPPORTED IT when it was for Peseiro. Should there be a benchmark? If so, what should it be? I think it should be more subjective. Ie. Are we playing well and making satisfactory progress ? For example suppose Aliou Cisse was under such a contract...

Why not Finidi George? He is in the running for back to back npfl titles. Has anyone else accomplished quite as much in just three years of npfl coaching in recent times
