Re: Nigeria vs Ghana (0-0)

Ndidi with a beautiful tackle and clean up there! Not to be unduly critical as it is expected, but you could see Tanimu's inexperience there... Yeah, he turned his back on the ball and man and the pass was released. But he has acquitted himself well both in defending and in being in position to rec...

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

All professional coaches have their own staff that move with them wherever they go. Mourinho for instance has had some staff with him for decades... Siasia had his own from the youth teams to the SE.

Not in Finland. I moved there on an EXPATRIATE contract. I got a housing allowance but otherwise my pay was within the local pay range. In Nigeria we are talking about expatriates earning several multiples of what locals earned. In my experience as an external counsel to, and inhouse counsel at mul...

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.

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

All over the world if you are expected as an expatriate on Expatriate terms you get paid HIGHER than a local equivalent. That you are a foreigner does not mean you will be on EXPATRIATE terms. Most countries allow foreigners to work on EXPATRIATE terms ONLY if it can be demonstrated that their is n...

The elephant in the room casually being overlooked, DCDO (Double Chief, Double Ogbuefi)syndrome. Nsien will be asked to “moof his moto” from the main bay to allow the big boys to park big vehicles “for front”.

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

This is about a systemic issue in Nigeria where your skin colour automatically determines your bargaining power. If Emenalo showed up, they would rather not hire him than pay him higher than a white man. That is Nigeria in any sector. I am the international (EMEA and APAC) lead for my role at the A...

This would make loads of sense if it was not the norm in EVERY SECTOR in Nigeria to pay white people more than black people. Go to any multinational or even the big local companies. Any Nigerian coach that tries to negotiate a big salary will be ignored and shunned for a journeyman European coach w...

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

I didn't miss it. Belgium has no history of offering higher payments to foreigners - Nigeria has. Roberto Martinez was paid €1.2 a year when he took over. They had to pay that amount to Martinez as they could not attract Belgian coaches like Leekens (who left in 2012 for Brugge for about €1 million...
