Re: Our Osimhen vs Bologna : 11.AM
It's guys like the Bologna coach NFF should be able to get . His team plays good football, they are well set up, attack with a defined structure and the team plays like a team. Plus the job of head coach of Nigeria is definitely more high profile than coaching Bologna. So he would be getable. Yet, ...

Re: Emphasis on Learning Over 2026 World Cup Qualification
WOWO exists and it is a big problem. The problem is with the administrators not the fans (including CE). The main reason why some fans prefer foreign coaches is due to the disparity in how our administrators treat them. Also based on precedence, the local coaches can be influenced. Their working en...

Re: How Michelle Alozie ended up representing Nigeria
I believe that was Nicole Payne's first game also. There was a defender named Okeke on the team who I thought was very good. Unfortunately, she scored an own goal in the game. I wonder what became of her. Wow accidental scouting uncovered a starter. I wonder who else showed up and became part of th...

Re: South Africa vs Nigeria Super Falcons Live Stream | Africa Olympic Qualifiers
Not impressed. They don't seem like they will do much at the Olympics. I prefer the days of naija coaches. Back then we won WAFCON regularly and spring a few surprises with the big ones except USA and Germany. But how can a team struggling with SA win WAFCON not to mention the international tournan...

Re: It is April 7th, the NFF still have not named a coach for the SE
They should name Finidi the coach. Appoint a solid backroom staff. They need to start preparing. Sout Africa will be coming to win in Nigeria. And it is doable. If the likes of Guinea Bissau can do. And the mighty Siera Leone can come back to tie a game 4-4 in NIgeria. South Africa will fancy their...

Re: CAMEROon VS NIGERIA
The team played better under the local coach. Plumptree didn't have a good game. Cameroon could have won the game. Did you watch the match? Don't mind that confused fellow. It's all about agenda for him. Is it not the same local coach that very nearly lost away to Ethiopia away in the last round? T...

Re: Super Falcons List for 2024 Olympic Qualifiers next week
They need to take this qualifier seriously. We barely beat Cameroon at the AFCON and it feels like Cameroon has gone to the last two Olympics tournaments. This current iteration of the Cameroon women's team won't inspire confidence in anybody. They barely made it to this stage (lost 2-0 away to Uga...

Re: Super Falcons List for 2024 Olympic Qualifiers next week
Good list, but… The lack of quality depth in the GK position is a potential pitfall. Worry is that if Chiamaka Nnadozie cops an injury or is otherwise unavailable, there’ll be a MASSIVE drop off in quality. Tochukwu Oluehi, while very experienced, is (having been watching several of our games in th...

Re: Leke Ojo
The guy keeps for Enyimba. He can’t be that bad. I think Perseiro didn’t want to throw him into the tournament in the middle of an intense match. If Nwanbili is out of the next match, they will prep him for the Angola game. That would be a better way of introducing him to the tournament. Uzoho look...

Re: Views from Others - Ugandans praise Iwobi, mock Song
I wouldn’t have played Ondoa if I was song. The guy has been on the receiving end of SE goals and was obviously nervous. He was in goal when Oliseh’s SE beat them 3-0 in a friendly in Belgium, 4-0 and 1-1, in the WCQs and 3-2 in the round of 16 at the 2019 AFCON. That’s 11 goals conceded in 4 match...

I have mixed feelings about this. Waldrum’s last 10 games going into the last WWC read as follows: Played 10 Lost 8 Won 2 (against Costa Rica 🇨🇷 and Haiti 🇭🇹 ) That is an appalling record. What he has in the credit bank is that his knowledge of the American university football system led him to une...
