He will be increase the defensive solidity.
Also him and Calvin play together in Fulham. So the chemistry will be beneficial
We know this.

But at 26 he still has aspirations of singing "God savethe King" for pitch.

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

The team is already there for Finidi.

He has been with them for 2 years. There is no need to deviate very much from Peseiros team. He just needs to plug a hole or two.

If he wants to be successful he will stick with mostly the same team.

It’s obviously fake news from the same source as the link below highlights.

Sorry but Chukwueze is too one footed to even be considered. He rarely beats his man anymore.

Re: FINIDI GEORGE, SUPER EAGLES COACH: FOOTBALL IS HARD AND TAKES IT'S TOLL

Good to get a feel of the guy. I like the fact that he took the step to move to Enyimba when he felt he wasn't making progress at Mallorca. And also his decision to make time for his children. He moved back in 2021. For the "corruption case squad", where are his antecedents for being corr...

Re: Rumor of Ibrahim Olawoyin is afoot......

His numbers in Turkey are not better than Fisayo Bashiru who Finidi ignored. I like FDB but Olawoyin has better stats You are right. I think Bashiru had better stats at the beginning of the season but he has been overtaken. Both played the same amount of minutes Both have 3 assists Olawoyin has 8 g...

Re: Adebayo Scores!

Our big striker position is settled barring injuries. It's Vic and Boniface. We don't need another big striker that's not going to play. You don't get to decide what "we" want in the NT, the team is always open to any player who shows serious commitment to play for Nigeria. And I guess th...

Re: The NFF should give Finidi a contract that will end after the WC 2026

I agree that a semi final clause is stupid. But YOU SUPPORTED IT when it was for Peseiro. Should there be a benchmark? If so, what should it be? I think it should be more subjective. Ie. Are we playing well and making satisfactory progress ? For example suppose Aliou Cisse was under such a contract...

Re: The NFF should give Finidi a contract that will end after the WC 2026

So it was OK to have a semifinal clause when it was a foreign coach, but for your local hero he doesn't need to have any targets at all ?

Many of you are even claiming that qualification for WC 2026 is not a must.

You guys are complete frauds.

But he's not good enough for Finidi the Fraud. Isn’t the purpose of friendlies to try out new formations and new players? So because Lookman didn’t start a friendly game, all of a sudden Finidi is a Fraud? The same Lookman that started pretty much all the AFCON games? You really need to see a Psych...

NFF is to blame no matter what happens. They clearly have the money to have gone for a better coach but settled for chopping money instead. They are also reinstating the homebased quota, also to "save money" and promote agency business as well. The homebased camping is basically letting us...
