Re: Losing Saka should be a criminal offense by Pinnick
No shame, no competence. 200 million people and begging for Europeans, just useless. Saka is a Nigerian. He ain’t that different from some of us that hold dual citizenship . The only time I won’t support him is if England is playing Nigeria. Then I would wish for him to have the worst game of his l...

Re: Losing Saka should be a criminal offense by Pinnick
Why cry over spilled milk? With the way our NFF and we fans behave, it does not matter what talent we attract, we are simply not shaping up for success. What with a disorganized NFF, and unrealistic ITK fans that love overrating players based on sentiments. For a system based on prayers and hoping t...

Re: SE v SA confirmed for June 7th.
Our SE don't need a coach to qualify for 2026 World Cup.
Na today we start choose our team the playground way?
...And we wonder why on gameday the players act like they just met before kickoff?
No worries, I envisage Nigeria/S Africa playing out like Liverpool/Atalanta.

Re: The Arsenal FC - Related News and Devts for 2023-24 Season
I expect assanal to humiliate Bayern If Arsenal fails to beat Bayern by at least a two-goal margin, I would say they can forget the CL. Bayern is as dated as six months old bread. What with aging and lethargic players, and a sifting defense? Game of the day is to be played in Spain. :taunt: :taunt:...

Re: EXCLUSIVE: Finidi did not invite Sadiq Umar for Super Eagles
Why do we love confusing situations? How can a coach not be able to invite players he prefers?
Coach choosing some, while the NFF adds some? Crazy!

Re: White paper needed on improving Nigeria football
The main reason we have all these complaints about our football is because, like every of our institutions, the primary objective of those running the system is self enrichment. When we can get officials that have little or no interest about personal financial gains on the job, that's when their mai...

Re: WHY Michael Nsien could possibly become the COMPROMISE CANDIDATE.......
Our NFF and most of us fans are too impatient with tracking the performance of coaches in sports. How was it concluded after two friendlies and a 50% record, that Finidi is the right or wrong coach for the SE? Emotions , I would say, and that should not be used to determine success in an endeavor wi...

Re: CAUTION: SE May Not Qualify for WC IF.....
Too many overhyped players with bad on-field attitudes. Worst is, if we look at the players invited for camping in the last ten years, there are some that are quite unproductive to SE but still getting invited. Issues relating to players invitations with regards official intrusion needs be addressed...

Re: Nigeria vs Mali(0-1)
Why should players at this level not able to trap or control the ball,
not to talk about making accurate passes? When some of us say most of
our players are overhyped, it seems we don't love them.

Looking at the match and the general demeanor of our SE players, I don't see any urgency,
discipline, or focus. The general attitude is like this is an intramural practice session.

Re: 10 observations I would like to make of the Ghana game so far
...we need a tried and tested coach like Renard, Mourinho, Klopp, Guadiola, Zidane, etc.
Yeah, I heard the highlighted names have turned the resumes in, with Guardiola
willing to bribe his way to the job.

Re: Nigeria vs Ghana (0-0)
There is little show of urgency and tactics, with players lingering on the ball instead of
the quick pass. This is the same mentality that is carried on to crucial competitions.

Re: Ladan Boss explains why Team could not have performed better
It's hard to be successful in a system like what the NFF operates. Any coach
working under such conditions should be considered lucky to win anything.
One simply has to wonder why Bosso is still hanging around the Federation,
if he is not part of the problem.

Re: Today na Today. All African Games: Uganda vs Nigeria
U-20 style of play is, run-and-shoot football laden with over-zealousness.
Our local coaches need refinement on the nuance and psychology of the game,
else Bosso should take over coaching the SE so we can continue the rot.
