Re: AFTER a 0-2 LOSS TO MALI......My View
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: AFTER a 0-2 LOSS TO MALI......My View
I completely agree to your views. Dessers in particular should have nothing to do with the SE again. Offers nothing. Can't pass, can't press, can't shoot, can't score. We played very good football, something that I've not seen in a while. We switched various formations throughout the game and I lov...

Re: FINIDI GEORGE IS A TERRIBLE COACH
I wont say he's a terrible coach. I will say he showed some inexperience and naivety with regards game and squad management. Few obvious things he missed 1. Ndidi does not play 90 mins for Leicester and rarely plays 2 games in a week post injury. He played 90 mins against Mali while 2 other midfiel...

Re: BBC Sport: Friendly Loss Splits Opinions.......
Much ado over nothing. Who invited the players? AFCON had players who sat on the bench and watched the former coach overuse players. Friendlies come we also displayed a problem with the use of subs. Sadiq should be happy. The friendlies might have exposed him just like the friendlies exposed Dessers...

Re: It’s now unlikely Finidi will be retained.
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: I like Finidi
Still you should should see his pattern of play and philosophy regardless of which player he has at his disposal. BTW, suddenly you are silent about substituions when we only had one yesterday, not counting the one due to injury. I thought you and your coaching certificates toting gang said that wa...

Re: CAUTION: SE May Not Qualify for WC IF.....
...we persist with this uncertainty.... 1. The NFF needs to confirm Finidi as substantive manager and remove the interim tag, or hire a new manager, based hopefully on a criteria that they may have determined. WHY? Because Finidi, both figuratively and substantively looked like an interim manager, ...

Re: I like Finidi
While I do not like the result against Mali, I would like to see how Finidi does with the the full team. Not many coaches can win games against one of the better teams in Africa without 7 of his starters. That is the point many of his detractors especially those who have a bias against local coache...

Re: 10 lessons we can learn from the loss to Mali
So can we hold Finidi or whatever next coach we get to the same standard you held Peseiro? ie if they dont win the next AFCON they should get fired? You are tooooooooo predictable. 2nd game in charge against a good Mali team. Please, list the players he used against Mali. Compare it to the players ...

SMH…. Peeps just want to throw away experienced players like you can buy them at Walmart. Ekong was supposed to be a finished, over the hill, tired leg. He ended up being our best player at AFCON. Di Maria was meant to be finished and past his sell by date at the WC, he ended being the reason Argen...

Re: Awaziem, Omeruo, Collins, Dessers
He missed yet another opportunity to be considered a good option upfront. I am yet to see what he does well.
He has got to be the 7th option.
Osimhen
Boniface
Awoniyi
Moffi
Sadiq
Onuachu
Adams
Orban
Reasons why we should try to add Adebayo and Solanke to the pool.

Re: Awaziem, Omeruo, Collins, Dessers
The luckiest people in this game were the unused subs. Because the folks you listed, Awaziem, Omeruo, Collins, Dessers and Osayi were bad. If I was a sub, I will be praying for the coach not to use me. What the coaching and technical crew need to look is why did Mali get all those chances. How to re...

Re: Awaziem
Awazien is actually one of our best ball playing defenders. Looks to me like he slipped and couldn’t strike the ball the way he wanted. Give him a break. Oh hussssh it! As a defender even in primary school you are taught not to attempt that kind of pass. Dumb stupid move. Dude has been bad anyway. ...
