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.

Re: Nigeria vs Mali(0-1)
...And that shows lack of confidence and coordination going forward.
How can we find goals, when players think the back pass is the best option?
Weak, ...weak, ...weak!

Re: Nigeria vs Mali(0-1)
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: NIGERIA HAS A PROBLEM
Football is less about size and more about intellect, team focus and cohesion. Add to that the NFF show of leadership, transparency, and less intrusion on team selection. I will readily take and team with discipline and focus on the agenda over one that is chuck full of selfish ball jugglers playing...

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: THINKING OF COACHING......
EII, I don’t believe there is one single manager in the whole wide world who is as good as he’s given credit for. Any manager is only as good as the resources made available to him. If a manager has good players and adequate support from his employer, he is likely to succeed. If you don’t believe m...

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.

Re: Ejuke showcases Okocha-like ability in Belgium: Time to replace subpar Chukwueze?
Unlike the ball-juggling star he is compared to, his main issue is whether he can release the ball on time and accurately. Until his ball-juggling can fit into team agenda, he will be just another entertainer. The video evidence shows that he lingers too much on the ball, and that is not what most c...

Is there a more insidious basis behind the vitriol directed at Ahmed Musa? Did his inclusion in the AfCON squad impact proceedings? Was he divisive in the camp? If so, did it steer the ship wide of its course? On merit, perhaps his inclusion was unjustified, but many a player has been taken to tour...
