NFF have to sack Peseiro before the AFCON, we're not winning a single game in that group so let's not waste our time

I don't even think we can get a draw in that group. All three teams will beat this yeye Eagles!

I understand your frustration which is very well placed, but I doubt you and all others are correct with your believes.

I hope I am wrong my brother. Let's see what they do tomorrow morning.

You are definitely wrong but it’s understandable that you have to protect yourself and by trying to have zero expectations, that is how you are doing it.
But don’t be fooled.
Regardless of what you say or try and convince yourself to believe, you STILL have expectations and a desire.

You can’t really run away from your heart because, as the old song goes “the heart is not so smart”

Try not to worry too much.

Thunder fire Jeep Pajero and those useless players

The fat angel* will be gone by Sunday, time for an interim manager to suit up and take over

I hope not. That will mean that we lost to Zimbabwe. They won’t fire him if he wins on Sunday. I’ll rather lose all games at the AFCON than dropping these crucial WCQ matches. I have never been to a WC games before and I want to go to one that is being held in my backyard.

Yeah! I also hope you are wrong; bro., but if in the end it turns out negative for us, then so be it.

Personally, I have learned to expect the worse and so, barely watch our games, live. Based on such, if we win, I will jubilate, but if we do poorly, my pain will not be massive, or depress me. That is how I cope these days, instead.

Checkout how good teams take care of minor teams in Asia!

Japan vs Myanmar 5-0
South Korea vs Singapore 5-0
Qatar vs Afghanistan 8-1
UAE vs Nepal 4-0
Australia vs Bangladesh 7-0
Iraq vs Indonesia 5-1
Saudi Arabia vs Pakistan 4-0
Oman vs Taiwan 3-0
Iran vs Hong Kong 4-0

With all due respect.

Lesotho is better than all those teams.

CIV beat Seychelles 9-0 BUT REMIND ME AGAIN WHAT THAT SAME CIV DID AT HOME VS LESOTHO.


Oh yeah it was 1-0.

Lesotho drew CIV in the reverse fixture


Lesotho is much better than Seychelles, Djibouti, etc.

The Sao Tome that Tunisia beat 4-0 did we not beat them 10-0 and 6-0 ?

Blame Kunle Soname for foisting Poseiro on us towards his own selfish end. Again and again.

Only thing Poseiro has going for him is that he is white.

You guys don’t realize that our group is very dangerous. We historically struggle with Southern Africa team - they play fast one touch football with nimble naturally gifted skillful players. Our group has at least 3 team from that region. Goodbye to 2026 WC. Not with this group of player. Not happening.

NIGERIANS WANT TO CUT CORNERS TO GLORY


They hate to do the hard and dirty work. Instead of developing a stable of capable indigenous coaches, they seek the ready made foreign coach; instead of developing local talent, they're perfecting plans to snag foreign born players. The irony is that this approach will only delay the day Nigeria can start peforming reliably in tounaments.
Bell

Really?
Who does that? At what level?
‘Develop’ as in exactly how? Send them to school?
Which school?
In di abroad?
In Praccourt?

For anyone at the grassroots level that wants to ‘develop’ in coaching in Nigeria, there are places to go. I read somewhere that you can even access through JAMB.
https://fcaan.org/courses/
https://nis.gov.ng/department-of-coaching-and-training/
Then there are higher licensing programmes.

But beyond a certain level, you are on your own.
Wedda na Spanish government send Guardiola go school or na Queen Elizabeth send Southgate.

I THOUGHT WE HAD A DISCUSSION ON THIS NOT TOO LONG AGO


Really?
Yes, really. When as a country do you embrace self-reliance? For crying loud, Nigeria has been playing football over and over 60 years. Is it not time take on this responsibility instead of treating it like rocket science?

Who does that? At what level?
Those who have an official role in Nigerian soccer and others - Fed govt, NFF, Min of sports, Min of Educ. As discussed peviously, this can be assigned to a university.

‘Develop’ as in exactly how? Send them to school?
Yep, send them to school for a program that includes mandatory classwork, seminars and internship.

Which school?
A designated Nigerian university (or, if in collaboration with other African countries, then institutions in those countries may be considered).

In di abroad?
See above.

In Praccourt?
See above.

Those in charge should understand that there mostly is no short cut to success. The sooner they start, the sooner they'll get there

Kai! See how our standards are dropping. We got handed an easy group. Last WCQ we got handed a Ghana team that was at their lowest in the history of their football and we still couldn’t slay them.

I, amongst others, have proposed the idea of a sports academy, perhaps housed in an already existing institution of higher learning, which caters to all levels of sports management

Not true. We have always bullied them. Its the North Africans and fellow west Africans that give us hell. This group is very easy. It is the useless coach and foolish players that are messing this thing up.

THERE ARE MANY MODELS THAT CAN WORK


When self-confident people come together and say enough to this mentality of dependence, they can decide which one works best. The only one that doesn't work is the fire brigade approach of dashing to Europe to look for unaccomplished journeymen coaches. (Good thing Nigeria did not qualify for Qatar 22 - they'd have been the only African country with a foreign coach)
