Wow, what's happening with all these names....Abdulganiyu....Karshe Cletus...Abdulmuiz....Qurib...Vowero Arierhi? Are traditional names evolving in Nigeria, or are these just editor's typos?

Re: Reservations aside we have no choice but to support Finidi
No time for LC vs FC. Nigeria must be at the next World Cup. At this stage considering how long the FA took to appoint a replacement It makes sense to pick the assistant of the outgoing coach. Finidi was a cerebral player hopefully he picks players that increase the overall cerebral IQ of the team ...

Re: Ademola Lookman has been nominated for April's Serie A Player of the Month Award
Imagine being in form in Serie A but not good enough to start for SE👀 Why do you think that it is impossible? Football is a team sport and your form is as good as how you play with the group. We have a starting defender in the Bundesliga [Akpoguma] who could not play well with SE. previously, we al...

Re: Rivers United threaten to leave Nigeria league??
Rivers United cannot hold the organizers to ransom. The fact is that the congestion was induced by their demands to put off their games to enable them prepare for continental competition. Now they are attempting to bully the NFF to give them more concessions, is that the issue? If it is, then the N...

Re: Finidi not willing to work with Amokachi, Amuneke
The knives are out for Finidi. How does wanting to pick his own assistants become not willing to work with anyone? Because the NFF wanted him to choose one of them and he said No. WHICH IS NOT WHAT WE WERE LED TO BELIEVE They said George was picked because the NFF wanted someone they could control....

SOME HERE MAY BE ABLE TO QUICKLY ANSWER THIS
How often has the Federation fired a foreign coach (I can remember only Bonfrere). How often has it extended a Nigerian coach? The answer could be telling.

Re: Rivers United threaten to leave Nigeria league??
DEFECT A REFORMED LEAGUE WOULD CURE This cannot happen in any of the major leagues in any sport anywhere in the world. The reason it's happening here is because the clubs are treated as personal possessions. The business/legal reform needed is that clubs become franchises owned by the league, not b...

Re: “There is still bad blood” – Amunike makes first comments since losing Super Eagles job to Finidi
The best Nigerian coaches are exactly people like Amuneke - aka "someone they cannot control" to do stupid stuff. If this is true, I think Amuneke may have been the better person for the job. Someone that can push back on NFF's excesses like Oliseh and Keshi. I do not see how someone an i...

Re: “There is still bad blood” – Amunike makes first comments since losing Super Eagles job to Finidi
INTRIGUES ARE NOT LIMITED TO NIGERIA OR THE NFF It's in everything worldwide, not just sports. We don't know if there's any in this case and if there is, it's not necessarily ill-motivated - there may be legitimate reasons to pick one person over another, especially if only one can be picked. If Am...

Re: Finidi's job as SE coach seems temporary.
I feel for Finidi. The general response to his appointment has been lukewarm with many Nigerians questioning his choice by the NFF. He has his work cut out and there are many waiting to sabotage him. Even among the 94 set, he was not their choice as they lined up behind Amunike. I just hope he does...
