This is not good at all for the [list=]long term planning for SE[/list] particularly for the next WC. Moses retiring is a dagger to Rohr's plan of having a matured,experienced team for the next mundial, a massive vote of no confidence was cast today by Vic Mo. I suspect he's tired of it,wont be suprised to see Mikel and Balogun follow him into retirement. Perhaps there's something he knows that we don't on the horizon.
The secret is there never was a long term plan when it comes to anything Nigeria, there’s no momentum in success and no lessons learnt in defeat the NFF don’t even know if they’ll be kicked out of office the staff don’t know when they will be replaced and the players obviously are obviously better off sorting out their careers!
Well you can say that now because its the easy option.
There's nothing easier than rubbishing everything Nigerian, and in this case, the NFF from your living room couch.
I mean, you don't even have to think before saying things like this because there is so much to point to, both real and imagined.
Don't know about you personally, but a few short weeks ago, there was near universal acknowledgment that Pinnick and his NFF were slowly getting things right, including his medium and long-term plans.
In all fairness to Fabio, he was the only one (that comes to mind) that was very vocal of Pinnick and the NFF before the WC even when everyone was getting excited.
Suddenly, a disastrous WC and a farcical power tussle coming from a desperate NFF Presidential reject has now given Nigerians reason to revert to type ie their usual position of safety, calling everyone clueless and everything hopeless. Everything and everyone except themselves.
But again, we are fans and with one finger and a computer keyboard we are allowed to be as notoriously fickle as we like.
So...
.'no long-term plans'? Where did Iheanacho, Ndidi, Uzoho, Success come from?
Why was Nigeria the youngest team in the last WC?
Why and how has the NF been able to slowly woo corporate sponsors back again?
Bro, just try and moderate your disappointment but don't throw the baby away with the bathwater.
We routinely do that in our political life.
'Begin again' every few years. Same with our football.
We are forever at the 'foundation level' because we refuse to build from the few positives that already exist.
