Pay as you go for assistant coaches

Could there be a potential conflict of interest in the future if the coaches do not have a contract? I don’t like this at all. Is this how other countries pay their assistant coaches? I know it’s just football but game plans, strategies and implementation are a form of intellectual property, are the...

Fantastic!

Wish the newbies well, hopefully we get to see them play.
It looks too good to be but I’m hoping it is though I have no evidence. If this isn’t true I’ll release Ifa on the character that posted it.

Re: Why Boniface is critical v RSA

If we stick with any variation of the 2 striker system, Lookman is actually the perfect foil for Victor. If finidi sticks w his 3-5-2, Lookman's versatility can see him creating combinations all over the pitch w Iwobi being his main partner and Osi at the end of the moves. Boniface is recovering fr...

Re: Why Boniface is critical v RSA

Even NIgeria used Ideye Brown and Emenike in 2013 successfully. It can work. You need mobile strikers that like to run and like to create chances. Both Osimhen and Boniface are good at that. Boniface is not a high work rate striker, he’s no Ideye Brown, not even close. Amokachi and Ideye could play...

Should he seek a transfer in the summer?
If Tiaminu can walk into the SE tarting 11, why do you think Ajayi needs a transfer?
