Re: Conceicao, Amunike, Torrent or Buijs
Pinnick completely jinxed Finidi.
The last thing the current NFF administration wants is influence from the last NFF chairman.

Re: How many world class players do we have?
Only Osimhen. Boniface is a potential candidate. We need to see how his career unfolds.

Re: It is April 7th, the NFF still have not named a coach for the SE
Nff is in serious financial trouble, they owe way more than the $5m they received for Afcon, even 10B that was supposed to be paid by the govt is yet to be remitted to the nff. Players and coaches are still owed for 23 games dating back to 2021 , means they still owe Rohr and his assistants too. As...

The man is talking rubbish. Firstly, on what legal basis would he sue the NFF?

What are the foreigners doing in there? :rotf: I would certainly like to see that. I'm sure the...

Re: What's Pogba's endgame?
They either have better testing methods in Italy or give players little "energy pills" in the dressing room.
There have been a few players that had decent careers in the EPL. They transfer to Italy and test positive for doping. Jaap Stam is another player that comes to mind.

Re: Who is your top choice for SE coach
We're the kings of Bronze at the AFCON. I know Rohr also got bronze, but that was because we met the eventual (unstoppable) winners too early. Apart from Keshi, who I will not really class as a local coach, as he perfected his craft abroad, all local coaches are bronze merchants. One of the worst fo...
