Re: Finidi not willing to work with Amokachi, Amuneke

I found this suggestion to be unacceptable when it was first speculated. First, those are two guys who wanted the same job. It will be a disaster for Finidi to have even one of them, let alone both, as an assistant. Doing so can undermine Finidi’s efforts. Secondly, if Finidi agrees to it, those guy...

Re: U17 team crisis- Manu Garba having problems

The MRI test is not 100 percent correct all the time. There are false positives. The blame is the NFF. Appointing a coach 1 month before an event. Waiting untill the last minute to do MRI tests. Normally the MRI tests are done much earlier to get eligible players for campaign. It takes time to teac...

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 NF...

Re: The NFF should give Finidi a contract that will end after the WC 2026

I agree that a semi final clause is stupid. But YOU SUPPORTED IT when it was for Peseiro. Should there be a benchmark? If so, what should it be? I think it should be more subjective. Ie. Are we playing well and making satisfactory progress ? For example suppose Aliou Cisse was under such a contract...

Re: Who has been the best coach in our local league over the last 5 years?

Boboye has to be up there. He has won the NPL twice with two different clubs. That has to be something. The guy is a determined guy who also invest in developing himself. I visited him in Belfast 2 years ago when he came on self sponsored training programme. Oloye, Yes, Boboye is up there. His trac...

Why have you uploaded this video???? You make us mad about the fact that the type of JJ Okocha are gone. Kai, see that JJ pass that led to the opening goal. Can any current SE make such a pass???? I am asking.

I am leery about commenting on this because I'm not sure if this is a Finidi idea or an NFF idea or a figment of the reporter's imagination. We wont know because our coach has not been introduced and there has not been a formal press conference. Let's assume it's true. On the face of it, there's NO...

People that defended a coach selecting only 25 players when he could have selected 27 are criticising another for calling up local league players before foreign players come in.

Re: Finidi's job as SE coach seems temporary.

First, I do not think his job is temporary but there are truly concerns: 1. It seems that there is no contract yet. Maybe they are waiting for a contract to be agreed. However, having announced him already why not still have him meet the press? 2. The NFF clearly has a poor strategy working with the...
