Re: Overall good test games for Nigeria/NFF keep Finidi

Ohenhen couldn’t be more accurate. The NFF have no clue the depth of the whole this team/they are in. Perseiro is smart and knows this team will have a very very tough/slim chance of qualifying after almost having a heart attack on the sideline against SA at AFCON. This SE full strength or not, will...

Re: SE Result against Mali - a case of the lineup?

Nigeria 0 - 2 Mali International friendly; 27th March 2024 1) Sad game. Awaziem gifted Mali a goal with a careless pass across the defense. 2) We made too many backward passes and not enough attacking plays. 3) Finidi showed poor man management and made very late changes. (You can be sure some play...

Re: Nigeria vs Mali(0-2) FT

Finidi has issues with making subs. That’s a problem with Nigerian coaches that I have seen coach the SE except Siasia. That’s a big problem. Doesn’t seem like he will be a good candidate for the permanent position.

Far better than Aribo, whom I didnt see what he brought to the AFCON. This Onyedika guy seems like a neat player - keeps it simple like Mikel. And seems to mobile and asks for the ball.

Simon had no business clattering into the goalie given the quality of the pass that was played to him. His poor touch unfortunately endangered him.

Re: Nigeria vs Ghana (2-1) Desser , Lookman FT

Eager to see how we do against Mali. I think they should be a tougher opponent than Ghana While Mali may be a better team than Ghana, the psychology for that game will be different versus the Ghana game which is a massive derby - Ghana will always play their hardest even in their worse form.

Re: FINIDI GEORGE.....Pressure, Opportunity, and Tomorrow

Make no mistake about it, Finidi and the authorities know that this is an auditioning weekend for Finidi. If he fails, he can kiss the job good bye.. That includes even maintaining the Chief Coach position. He will be replaced. Thus, he is at fever-pitch, shivering, and he knows very well that he w...

Re: 26 WCQ - Have we fumbled?

The logic behind hiring a coach after wasting the two friendlies has to be the dumbest move ever. NFF wants a foreign coach based on inside report and do not plan to make Finidi the longterm coach for the qualifiers. But yet, they have Finidi managing the two friendlies. Just let that shitzs sink in...

Re: "FULL LIST": All the top coaches who applied for Super Eagles job

So NFF plans to unveil/hire a coach in April after wasting the friendlies in March. What kind of logic is that? So what is the usefulness of the March friendlies if you dont have the coach who would oversea the WC qualifiers in place before the March friendlies? The insanity of these people is unbel...

My addition. We have the seen the effects of the defeatist mentality of the fraud, masquerading as a coach, in the person called Rohr.

This is not how a competent federation goes about hiring a coach. These guys are so amateur.

Re: Ejuke showcases Okocha-like ability in Belgium: Time to replace subpar Chukwueze?

Impressive “freestyle” footballing. Before casting the dye, lest one forget, Chukwueze too has a YouTube compilation worthy accolade. Drag backs, stepovers, lollipops, Jolly Ranchers. Both, on their day, are talented entertainers. From an actual “footballing” point of view, is there any difference ...
