Re: Reliance on foreigners has stunted growth of African coaches –Nsien

It hasn't stunted Otto Addo. Neither did it stunt Rabah Sadaane years ago... Nsien would be a good option for our youth team which should be a good the perfect pathway for any unproven or young Nigerian coach, just like Siasia or even Keshi. :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: Why would he leave the US youth syst...

Re: Local Vs Foreign Coach Debate. Data and Statistics since 1980

Quit with your whataboutery. Anderlecht in Belgium gave a black man, Kompany, a €5 million a year contract so I won't complain. Where is the Kompany example in Nigeria? In case you missed it, we are discussing national team coaches. Now, answer my question. I didn't miss it. Belgium has no history ...

Re: Local Vs Foreign Coach Debate. Data and Statistics since 1980

It is the responsibility of the employer to offer pay equity, especially in a position of national interest where a particular class, in the case the locals, are disadvantaged in bargaining power. You can dip your head in the sand and pretend that being foreign, especially white, does not give an a...

Re: Folorunsho Golazzo against Juventus!

We have lost Folorunsho to Italy. This is a player that Peseiro should have called up last year, but he refused. And now, we do not have the player, Peseiro has moved on with his life and Nigeria is the one that loses. This is why you need a serious Technical Director (or Director of Football) whos...

Re: Local Vs Foreign Coach Debate. Data and Statistics since 1980

It's not the responsibility of your employer to pay you what you think you are worth. You negotiate for it and if you don't like their offer, you walk away. You can't act desperate and be unprofessional about your job and expect to be taken seriously. The local coaches have to share some of the bla...

EII, I believe it is reasonable to insist, except in the glaringly obvious cases of undismissable talent, that they prove themselves in a tournament like U20, WAFU or CHAN. If they are able to hold their own against other home-based African talent then the argument for giving them a more serious lo...
