U-20 style of play is, run-and-shoot football laden with over-zealousness.
Our local coaches need refinement on the nuance and psychology of the game,
else Bosso should take over coaching the SE so we can continue the rot.

Unlike the ball-juggling star he is compared to, his main issue is whether he can release the ball on time and accurately. Until his ball-juggling can fit into team agenda, he will be just another entertainer. The video evidence shows that he lingers too much on the ball, and that is not what most c...

No matter who the NFF hires as a coach, until the unnecessary meddling is curtailed
our football will continue like a sine-wave: up-down, ...up-down, ...up-down!

No sane foreign coach wants to deal with NFF intrigue and Nigerian sports media silliness.

No one is born with TALENT. What people are born with is physical attributes that can make talent acquisition easier and faster with practise. This often explains difference between sexes in sport. The lad in question more likely has positive physical attributes and then be spent hours practising t...

Is there a more insidious basis behind the vitriol directed at Ahmed Musa? Did his inclusion in the AfCON squad impact proceedings? Was he divisive in the camp? If so, did it steer the ship wide of its course? On merit, perhaps his inclusion was unjustified, but many a player has been taken to tour...

I mean whatever someone like Finidi lacks in technical ability can be hired. There are many good match readers, scouts and tacticians working in several clubs in South America. We know Finidi loves his country and has hardly been involved in controversy like Oliseh Not everything need be outsourced...

Onyeka, the one notable SE mid-fielder at AFCON.
If we can get another player like him, our defense will be hard to crack.

1990s mindset. Whenever creativity is mentioned, Cyberians reply “midfield, midfield”. Most assists in the EPL this season thus far? Kieran Trippier and Ollie Watkins. Rather than assume Iwobi the second coming of what he’s not , the question should be, when will our game modernise to the point whe...

Wow na BP don come dey make sense like this? That was a lot of growing up o. You other guys covering your ears and shouting "fire the coach" should heed his advice. He was in your very position not very long ago. He got his wish, but didn't like where it all ended up. :rotf: :rotf: :rotf:...

Any coach, foreign or domestic, will still have to contend with officials and fans who love to unnecessarily interfere with players choices and game day selections. Until we resolve these, our team situation cannot function properly. BTW, why are our domestic coaching options suggestions based mainl...

May be the players are as good as the fans think? Thanks bamenda . Our best players are defenders, and most of our offensive players are overhyped and selfish. In an era of quick coordinated possession football, you can't have attacking players with bad first-touch control of the ball, inaccurate p...

This coach did a great job with this average team. Time is too short but I want to believe Nigeria has far better players than most of those in this squad. The goal within the year should be to plug the gaps by aggressively scouting locally and internationally for talent. In my view, I was impresse...

South Africa scrapes through with the third-place Bronze win.
Congratulations to both teams for their participation.

South Africa will definitely pass themselves to stupor, a team that can do the intricate 1-2 passes and build up play well yet can't finish to save their lives...hope this will be the case when we meet them again in June for the WCQ. honestly, they magically improved against SE. I am still trying t...

SA seems to be hoping for another penalty shoot-out. Lots of possession but no shot on goal.

This is symptomatic of the cluelessness that afflicts Nigerians; misplaced priorities. Given the state of affairs in our country, football ought to be one of the last items on our list of priorities and our resources should be channeled to more important things like lifting all of our citizens out ...

Aina is good but can be careless at times. Look at his attitude after the Angolan
went through the defenders and took that shot that hit bounced of the upright.
He certainly was not interested in at least chasing him.

If fans are complaining while the team is winning, I wonder what hell
will break out in a loss. It's been said that, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it".
I guess our resident ITK coaches just want to add some salt, pepper, and a little more heat.

After all these rantings, not one of those against Zaidu named a credible replacement sitting on the bench. Which is why the coach keeps fielding him. With all the criticism of the player, one would think tons of goals have been from his errors, and that he has zero impact on the matches. Some peopl...
