Re: U17 team crisis- Manu Garba having problems
NFF mandating these kids to do their own private MRI test send one kind. How do they expect them to pay for it and how reliable would it be? Also, they already had a team that played in the qualifiers in February where 3 failed the MRI tests. So we can conclude that the team has not been hurriedly p...

Re: U17 team crisis- Manu Garba having problems
The MRI test is not 100 percent correct all the time. There are false positives. The blame is the NFF. Appointing a coach 1 month before an event. Waiting untill the last minute to do MRI tests. Normally the MRI tests are done much earlier to get eligible players for campaign. It takes time to teac...

Re: U17 team crisis- Manu Garba having problems
Is this about the NFF or the endemic corruption of Nigerians? More than half the team failed the MRI. These are 15, 16 yr old kids already misrepresenting themselves. You’ve said it all. Some of those kids would have presented forged school documents. I know a guy who is well above 30 but his passp...

Re: “There is still bad blood” – Amunike makes first comments since losing Super Eagles job to Finidi
Amuneke can be given the U20/23 Job, both categories have been stinking up the joint lately. He gets to prove himself in an U-20 World Cup or the Olympics, both of which are World standard with good exposure and perfect for CV building. He must not wait for the SE! Good points. I hope those boys in...

Re: Ademola Lookman has been nominated for April's Serie A Player of the Month Award
Imagine being in form in Serie A but not good enough to start for SE👀 Why do you think that it is impossible? Football is a team sport and your form is as good as how you play with the group. We have a starting defender in the Bundesliga [Akpoguma] who could not play well with SE. previously, we al...

We don't know if there's any in this case and if there is, it's not necessarily ill-motivated - there may be legitimate reasons to pick one person over another, especially if only one can be picked.

Re: Here we go again: Open camp of SE to local talent-Finidi's first move
How we all factored in the possibility that FINIDI expects some players NOT to honor invitations given sentiments expressed after the last 2 friendlies. Plan B (partial use of home based players) has being activated. And he has to hold a full camp to identify the players that should replace the &qu...

Re: Here we go again: Open camp of SE to local talent-Finidi's first move
I am leery about commenting on this because I'm not sure if this is a Finidi idea or an NFF idea or a figment of the reporter's imagination. We wont know because our coach has not been introduced and there has not been a formal press conference. Let's assume it's true. On the face of it, there's NO...

Re: Finidi's job as SE coach seems temporary.
Lolly is such a loser and a liar. He was part of the group that pushed for the firing of AModu .Which 2002 afcon squad was poor? Go back and watch the games. We also played with. 9 men..(Aghawonder and Udeze were both sent off) Senegal were very lucky in that match, Jayjay's free kick hit the post,...

Re: Here we go again: Open camp of SE to local talent-Finidi's first move
People that defended a coach selecting only 25 players when he could have selected 27 are criticising another for calling up local league players before foreign players come in.

Re: Finidi's job as SE coach seems temporary.
I feel for Finidi. The general response to his appointment has been lukewarm with many Nigerians questioning his choice by the NFF. He has his work cut out and there are many waiting to sabotage him. Even among the 94 set, he was not their choice as they lined up behind Amunike. I just hope he does...

Re: Finidi's job as SE coach seems temporary.
But this current NFF leadership are useless and I don’t normally use the word for our officials.
Not having a press conference on his appointment after their social media post is scandalous. Or are they planning to reverse the decision to appoint him?
