When? Read the story of how Morocco developed its football by focusing on facilities, talent and qualified personnel here https://businessday.ng/news/article/how ... p-odyssey/

Nigeria hasn’t invested 1 kobo or developed any serious plan to do better other than talking and praying as though God only answers prayers from Nigerians.

[maceo4]

In mouth Olympics maybe mschew…

[Tobi17]

Bunch of brainless clowns, we're better off hiring competent foreigners to run our FA than this bunch of clowns.

[TonyTheTigerKiller]

No be for mouth ooo.. but with proper planning and preparations, along with some good luck, anything is possible


Cheers.

I see nothing wrong with having this mindset. Instead we have Nigerians and their negative energy laughing at him . Smh..who needs enemies of progress with Nigerians on CE like those above

[1naija]

This is not the only tournament Morocco has played since this great investment in facilities, talent, and personnel. I told you guys the goalkeeper cannot be spectacular in every game. Without the goalkeeper Morocco would have lost to Spain or Portugal. They had that many clear chances despite this great talent and personnel development you mentioned above. I think the did very well at this world cup, but AFCON is coming up next year. If they dont win it, then all these investment would have amounted to nothing.

We need to develop our football infrastructure, facilities, personel etc. Not so that we get to the semi finals of the WC but because it's a multi-billion dollar industry that can contribute to education, healthcare, employment, pensions, transportation etc. It's an industry where the market and talent for it is not in doubt. Success in competions will naturally come with it.

For the NFF, they need to go back to the basics of establishing a viable business plan. The inability to pay local salaries on time is a fundamental issue that should be a show stopper. Lets clean house and get back to a workable plan, there is no point operating a massive debt ridden FA with unproductive personel and huge expenses. We need compensation analysts, plans to generate funds, marketing pros etc.

If not, we'll be here in 20, 30, 50 yrs saying we need a functioning local league, investment....blah blah blah.... We know the problems, but nobody sits in a room to tackle them and come up with long term solutions.

If you know Nigeria very well, the NFA is symbolic of what Nigeria really is. No
be today people don dey tok “if we can do x and y, then x should be possible in year …”. Well… if we are around in 20, 30 or 50 years, I can bet the same conversations will persist, as long as something called Nigeria dey. Delusional people, jaguda country

No be NFA na NFF. Yea, same will be said in 20 yrs time but It is quite possible that Naija will have played a WC final by then even with all the shenanigans. We shy away from making required changes to the polity.

TBH, solving this problem is not impossible in Nigeria. As we speak there are examples of thriving industries in the same cesspool that we describe. The question is why and how are those industries thriving.

First think of movie and music industries. Those two have never been under state contr like football.

How about telephones and airlines? Well, you know they have been under state control until they were privatized.

Thus take your pick. All those thrive in Nigeria with differentiated success stories, nonetheless.

So why not football? I have given the above examples as a preclude to dissuade naysayers who claim that no industry can thrive if the rest of the country is mired in problems.

One thing is clear-- for football to reach its zenith and thrive, it requires an environment that is privately run. Nigerians love football and that is what matters. Moreover, with interest from outside that surrounds Nigerian talent, you have a case to build a thriving football industry.

EII,

Private investment is essential for Nigerian football to develop but it can’t be done without significant government input in the form of infrastructure provision and a Nigeria-centric football policy. I see three major ares to focus on:

o provision of adequate infrastructure has to be a collaboration between the private sector and government. Government can’t do it alone

o Government must evolve a policy that prevents the unnecessary migration of Nigerian talent. Consider the abomination that the CAF Champions League proper is taking place without the participation of any Nigerian clubs. Reasonable but significant transfer fees must be instituted with a view to keeping the majority of our talent home. This will help to improve the standard of the local leagues protect the marketing integrity of Nigerian footballers, most of whom are no more than slave laborers.

o It should be the responsibility of the private sector who run Nigerian football to develop a marketable football product

The above and a host of other measures will help to actualize the hope of Nigerian football fans who want to see Nigeria take its rightful place in international football


Cheers.

I don't have all the time and facts on this fascinating topic.

But Morocco have done a lot to build their infrastructure and systematically produce good players...and specifically a good NT.

A French friend of mind told me Morocco built a football academy years ago modeled on the French Clairefontaine model. It's starts with a U15 youth team. Involving domestic players and those of Moroccan heritage abroad. They started this in 2017.

France interestingly has a top-down NT approach encompassing their considerable academy and club infrastructure. Morocco evidently is adapting this. We will see if this sustains success...and if Nigeria might adapt something here as well.

This is what annoyed me about picnics infatuation with foreign things, instead of him to focus on modeling our soccer development programs against those successful ones he sees in Europe, he was only interested in getting the left over players who didn’t successfully make it through those programs and into their respective NTs. Basically trying to reap where he did not sow rather than learning the right way to sow and implementing it for long term success…
