Re: “There was chaos” – Amokachi advised to support Finidi, avoid a repeat of Amunike-Eguavoen disaster

There's absolutely no reason to appoint Amokachi as Finidi's assistant. His huge overflated ego may not allow him listen to Finidi. These are the type of assistants that will plot the downfall of the main coach so that they can take over. For me, it's a wrong appointment. If they must appoint one f...

Re: “There was chaos” – Amokachi advised to support Finidi, avoid a repeat of Amunike-Eguavoen disaster

Gotta admit, even though I am not a fan of Amuneke - the person - it seems someone is out to destroy him and his reputation. I wonder why I really want SE to do well again. Finidi has a fantastic football mind. I am pumped about his era. Amokachi and co will get their turn…supporting finidi would b...

Re: Name your SA/Benin squad

I believe that Finidi George has a clear idea on how Nigeria’s team should be structured going forward. He showed a glimpse of it in the two international friendlies under his charge. Although he was short of pertinent personnel for those two games, but his ideas are clear. In summary, as he has no...

Re: “There was chaos” – Amokachi advised to support Finidi, avoid a repeat of Amunike-Eguavoen disaster

There will be plenty of work for Amokachi to do. But if I am Finidi I will closely watch him. The guy was as an advisor to Buhari. He has a lot of political friends. Benjamin James would be my first assistant. But I will make sure Amokachi is involved not sidelined like Yobo. Ohenhen1 You have stat...

Re: Fatigue a concern for Bafana in huge World Cup clashes against Nigeria, Zim

The truth is that the South Africans are toughened by varied competition in the continent as the SE found out at the last AFCON. Aa the piece notes, majority of the players play for Mamelodi Sundowns, a top level African club for years. They are a mean unit with pacy players and a dangerous setpiece...

Why are Boniface and Tella not called up regularly in the national Team? Especially Tella! He has only 1 cap so far! This is not accurate, tbh. It only appears so because both were not at AFCON. Boniface would definitely have been at AFCON but was injured just before. As for Tella he a as called up...
