Re: Against SA, probable Finidi 352 formation

One thing is for sure vs SA. Ohenhen's lineup and Finidi will not both be present at the game. If that line up rolls out the tunnel Finidi will not. If Finidi is coach, that will not be the lineup. If Finidi is not the coach. I will not waste my time watching a failed journey man foreign mercenary ...

Re: What Finidi George said after Nigeria’s 2-nil loss to Mali

INCREDIBLE THAT... ...people are already condemning Finidi over two friendlies, one which, believe or not, he actually won. They are already calling him a failure even though they had no clue what his goals going into the match were. They are lamenting that some players were not used before knowing...

Re: NIGERIA HAS A PROBLEM

'The solution is simple. Develop the local league. Stop the JAPA movement. Back in the 80 and 90's we had a lot of of talent in midfield because the likes of Nwakili and Obi stayed in Nigeria to develop their skills. Now the likes of Obi who was a creative midfield was converted to a sideways passi...

Re: Who has been the best coach in our local league over the last 5 years?

I don't like Enugu Rangers but not as much as I dislike Rivers. Any manager that managed to drag Enugu Rangers from their relegation zone camp to the top of the league in two months should be respected. That is our man. ... but we already have Finidi George in charge, is this all about the friendly...

So why didn't you ask, who has been the best coach in our league over the past 5 years who prefers 4-4-2, 4-3-3, 3-5-2 etc, and has coaching badges, and can be assistant to Finidi, and his team is not 16 out 20 on the league table, in the first place?

He did it to himself :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: He wanted to be the black Peseiro. It was always clear to me that you cannot separate an assistant from a head coach. No way you can tell me "oh! he is just assisting, and his voice isnt heard." Same tactics, same formation, same players. Even the...

Re: Awaziem

Akpoguma was never given as much opportunities as Awaziem before being canned Because he was useless when he played both at RB and Central defence. At least Awaziem looked decent when he played at RB a few years ago but I have never rated him as a central defender though. Bros, Dammy thinks because...

I must say I was, and still am rooting for Finidi but his stock went down today, and for me it was not using his subs, this is exactly why we have friendlies, he could have used this to say he "discovered" player x or y, The results is inconsequential but we needed to see more from the pl...

Re: Awaziem, Omeruo, Collins, Dessers

This was a really bad performance. Add Osayi to the list. His last few SE performances have been underwhelming. Lots of blame to go around. I signed out on him during the Afcon. He made a wonderful run that needed a simple pass to a striker but instead he went for glory. He's a far better fullback ...

Awaziem gifted Mali a goal with a careless pass across the defense. 2) We made too many backward passes and not enough attacking plays. 3) Finidi showed poor man management and made very late changes.

Re: Overall good test games for Nigeria/NFF keep Finid

No pain, no gain. If Nigeria insists on a ‘local’ coach, this is what it takes. This is a ‘stress test’ and I know from history we never handle it well. They need to stick with Finidi if we really want to put our money where our mouth is. No need living in denial, or by blaming it all on WOWOs. Thi...

Unbelievable stuff I am reading on social media. Some Nigerians are brainwashed by WOWO. From what I saw in the Ghana game. Finidi is a good coach. Give the guy support and time to build his team. No white man they hire will save Nigeria. Nigeria need depth, we need new defenders and midfielders. F...
