Re: Benjamin Tiaminu - New SE

This is a very tough thread to comment on. Full Disclosure - Benjamin was brought to me in Lagos in 2017 from Benin as a young 15-16 yr old kid then to tryout for my academy. He trained with us for awhile but ended up going back to Benin. We were unable to work something out with his folks. I kept a...

Re: AAG Live - Flying eagles (1) vs Uganda (2) FT

One thing we will eventually realize is that nothing trumps preparation. I expected little from this team except to improve gradually with games. The NFF claims it is strapped and cannot easily access funds to fully prepare its teams. The resilt will be disappointment. I watched the second half of ...

Re: How about a Local coach with a foreign assistant

Re: BREAKING: Peseiro quits as SE coach

He ended his tenure on a high but he was bang average overall. Now, let’s see who’s next. I suspect the NFF already have another foreigner on their radar. average overall ? he took the team to the final of the most competitve AFCON IN HISTORY. The team did not concede a goal in 4 straight matches. ...

Re: Argentina and Nigeria friendly in China cancelled after furious Lionel Messi fallout

I dont buy the 'visa problems' excuse. According to the Argentinian rumor mill the NFF didn't want to pay the expenses for the flights. The visa thing is from a very very reliable source. If you say so. We went to US before, with a bunch of homebased players to boot. Friendlies were planned months ...

Troost has cut out on a mistakes he used to make like losing concentration or panicking leading to errors.

Re: Osihmen to replace Mbappe at PSG

PSG invested heavily in Goncalvo Ramos and Kolo Muani. Paying big money for Osimhen just doesnt seem right.

I actually think they'll be going after Rafael Leao at Milan.

If Todd Boehly agrees to alter his payscale at Chelsea then Victor will go there.

Re: Super Falcons List for 2024 Olympic Qualifiers next week

Good list, but… The lack of quality depth in the GK position is a potential pitfall. Worry is that if Chiamaka Nnadozie cops an injury or is otherwise unavailable, there’ll be a MASSIVE drop off in quality. Tochukwu Oluehi, while very experienced, is (having been watching several of our games in th...
