Re: Satisfactory result for Finidi v SA/BEN?

Finidi will start the job under the most pressure filled circumstances than any coach in Nigerian history. What would be a satisfactory result in these 2 games for Finidi? Good news is that the season will be over and he can have a longer camp of maybe a week or so and play local teams. I actually ...

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...

We can survive with a draw against Benin but that would be humiliating. We need to beat them too.
Still don't respect the African game? Remember CAR, CV and EG?

That's preferable but we gotta cut him some slack due to the whole coaching mess created by the nff. A win vs SA is a must, I'd give him a break if he draws Benin.

Re: U17 team crisis- Manu Garba having problems

MRI bone density scan used to determine age is likely to have a higher error rate amongst Africans because our bones are more dense than that of other races anyway, This is one of the reasons Africans rarely suffer from osteoporosis or brittle bone disease. I doubt very much that even a corrupt Nff ...

Finidi's job is only guaranteed for 30 days. If he doesn't come out of the SA and Benin games with at least 4pts he's a gonna.. fact.

Re: Finidi's job as SE coach seems temporary.

First, I do not think his job is temporary but there are truly concerns: 1. It seems that there is no contract yet. Maybe they are waiting for a contract to be agreed. However, having announced him already why not still have him meet the press? 2. The NFF clearly has a poor strategy working with th...

No contract details. No press conference Finidi is yet to say word. No assistant coaches No record of the Nff board approval No SE player has commented on Finidi Frog of Monaco gave up the plan Hope I'm wrong but this just doesn't feel right. When will Gassau and Finidi appear together? Is it a 1,2 ...

GEORGE, WOLVES AT THE DOOR It only took the hiring of a Nigerian by the NFF for a Nigerian job which is paid for by Nigerians to bring them out of the woodwork. How dare the NFF.

Re: Here we go again: Open camp of SE to local talent-Finidi's first move

If he's the coach of the CHAN team, open camp will help. It could also help with discovering players that could be referred to the U20 amd U23 teams, assuming Finidi talks with those coaches as he should. He may discover 1-3 players for the main SE, but I'm not expecting more than that. Since when ...
