Re: Here we go again: Open camp of SE to local talent-Finidi's first move
I don't see anything wrong with a homebased training camp prior to the release of foreign players. Which successful African team does this ? CIV ? Senegal ? Morocco ? Are those teams more successful than Nigeria when it comes to African football? Iike I stated our most successful coaches till date,...

Re: Here we go again: Open camp of SE to local talent-Finidi's first move
the responses so far are exactly why we need a coach that counters the Nigerian element of oddities. Imagine this headline: ***Brazilian Coach throws camp open for home based players for Senior Team selection. *** Even with a better league than our NPFL wouldn't this sound off to you? Here's the st...

Re: Here we go again: Open camp of SE to local talent-Finidi's first move
I have said this before; I am less interested in the dichotomy of local vs foreign coach or Oyinbo vs non-oyinbo. I think this too unintelligent (as I weary of using the word "dumb"). My yearning was for us to hire the best coach that we can afford. I did state that there are ONLY a few N...

Re: Kelechi Nwakali…
When Nwakali can play like this, call me. Midfield is a two way street. Offensive capability is 50% of the job requirement. Paul defines the work required on and off the ball. https://youtu.be/CFMPfxOZimg?si=YcfGqJISGkhqwl4t Which of our current midfielders play like this? Aribo for example is a re...

Re: Aina against Manchester City
I’ve watched Doku play a few games, he’s a a good player for sure but I don’t think he’s any better than Ejuke, Simon or Chukwueze in terms of his end product and dribbling ability but Doku is much more highly regarded than our players. Why? Na I’m pali? So any player that is fast and skillful on t...

Re: Sweden vs Nigeria Pre-1994 World Cup Friendly
I remember watching that friendly and having low expectations as our payers could barely touch the ball. They also played a few Swedish club sides prior to that match. Their style of play attracted a lot of Swedish admirers. One of them was a young teenager by the name of Johan Allard. This boy was...

Re: OSAZE CALLS LOCAL COACHES PLAYER AGENTS
There you have it. He says no to a local coach because they are ALL player agents who use SE to market their clients ahead of better players. That right there is why I will never back a local coach, until this culture of corruption changes. Is he lying ? I don't think so. We've seen clear evidence ...

Re: Samson Siasia alleges pay disparity at NFF: Foreign coaches earn $50k, locals just N1M
Where did Siasia say that it was him that was paid N1 million a month? Which local coach out-earned oyibo coaches? Where is the person that did the local v foreign comparison since 1980. Can we have a similar comparison for salaries? I thought the discussion was about local coaches being paid N1m p...
