Re: IF a Nigerian was the current SE coach he would have been fired
we have the enemies of progress comparing Amodu's work to the fake weak zero no tactics ****. no european team will touch the man parading as our coach. I cannot wait for him to get exposed. the question folks should ask, is why do the nff insist on turning our football to pre-historic era with this old fake coach? this has to be more than football...

Stop projecting.
Say it if you are denying it: "Rohr's hiring was not a mistake".
Oya, declare your position.

My views on Rohr is well known! A search should help you out

Re: IF a Nigerian was the current SE coach he would have been fired
We all know that he played in a final in 1996,that's snow from yesterday....But again that's the point and the question still is: What has he done in the last 20 years?...No one is saying that Rohr could not have been good in the mid 90s but we are not in the mid 90s are we? The football world has changed and dinosaurs can't take us to the next level, you can take that to the bank!...He has been in charge for close to 6yrs, majority of our players have been together for 4yrs, there is continuity, fine, but a quick question: Does that team play as if they have been together for 4 yrs and coached by a manager that has been on the job for close to six years?Damunk wrote: ↑Mon Sep 13, 2021 9:52 amI don't think Gochino knows that otherwise he wouldnt have asked the question the way he did.aruako1 wrote: ↑Mon Sep 13, 2021 8:26 amTo be fair he also took Bordeaux to the 1996 UEFA Cup final with a certain Zinedine Zidane.gochino wrote: ↑Mon Sep 13, 2021 6:50 amGood question! Most important thing is you also have to account for your achievements in the game. What exactly did Rohr achieve in his 20 yrs of coaching?...Amunike won the u17 and hisorically qualified Libya for the Anc, Keshi historically qualified tiny Togo for their first ever world cup, against all odds!

Don’t get me wrong. I love the guy but that is just sentiment.
So what qualifies him to take charge of the Nigerian snr NT, other than the fact that he is a Nigerian?
In most professions, before you get hired not only do you have to show your qualifications and experience, you also have to account for any gaps in your CV.
So all sentiments aside, what has he been doing in the last two years?
Same with Finidi. Same with Oliseh.
Now he knows, he will modify his position to "the last ten years" and that 1996 "was 25 years ago, not 20".
Point is, this anti-Rohr argument is only given legs by setting up strawmen, like anybody is saying he is "the best coach ever".
He is what we can afford and he is who we can attract.
Meanwhile, we don't have another Keshi waiting in the shadows and the best Nigerian candidates are just not doing enough to "deserve" the job.
I laugh at that word 'deserve". Let's not disrespect any Nigerian coach here but right now, nobody "deserves' anything.
You work and prove your mettle.
Its a no-brainer but the naysayers won't give up until they have their way and the next poor guy comes along to carry the cross on his shoulders.

Re: IF a Nigerian was the current SE coach he would have been fired
For many it is not about Rohr per se. But it rankles when some people judge local and foreign coaches differently. Some of the voices that called loudly for Amodu's sacking and vilified Keshi are the same ones defending Rohr.Damunk wrote: ↑Mon Sep 13, 2021 9:52 amI don't think Gochino knows that otherwise he wouldnt have asked the question the way he did.aruako1 wrote: ↑Mon Sep 13, 2021 8:26 amTo be fair he also took Bordeaux to the 1996 UEFA Cup final with a certain Zinedine Zidane.gochino wrote: ↑Mon Sep 13, 2021 6:50 amGood question!

I was not happy with our World Cup, and I wouldn't have complained if Rohr was sacked then, or even after the ANC (it is best to have a fresh start after a tournament). However, it would be lunacy to sack him before we have concluded our World Cup journey. And while we still have him, we will still moan when we are not happy but we must never wish a loss or poor result on the team as two prominent posters love to do when they don't like the manager.

Re: IF a Nigerian was the current SE coach he would have been fired
In BPs world of logic, many wrongs equal a right... Imagine pushing for a coach to be fired right in the thick of crucial qualifiers for both AFCON and the WC even when he has so far met the goals of qualification (still in progress) with his team comfortably leading the table for both tournaments, with the possibility of qualifying with games to spare... but yeah, it's SMART to simply fire Rohr because we don't like his brand of football even though we've not lost a single tournament game yet.aruako1 wrote: ↑Mon Sep 13, 2021 4:11 pmThose were wrong decisions.

Re: IF a Nigerian was the current SE coach he would have been fired
I do not get some of you guys. Why have sentiments towards a coach? That is one of the highest turnover jobs on this planet. We've let many managers go and we've won AFCON . qualified for WCs etc Chelsea , Real etc do change managers and they win big...instead you people are promoting mediocrity . We aren't going anywhere with ****. Mind you the dude will me 69 years old. What new ideas can we get from him? We are going to have a 70 year old as coach...smh

Re: IF a Nigerian was the current SE coach he would have been fired
We cannot even pay his considerable SALARY arrears, yet we are complaining......he knows he can't be sacked because we can't afford it and if we were dumb enough to try it CAS will rule on his behalf with interest!
What makes you think the next guy will be treated any differently?
Let's focus our vitriol at Pinnick/NFF, we're never going to get the coach we think we deserve until this keystone cops administration recurring cycle ends.....

Re: IF a Nigerian was the current SE coach he would have been fired
Well you can say Amunike's experience the same gap that **** had in between 1992 and 1996 or 1996 and 1999. Gaps happen, but Amunike has coached and won with our youth NT's and coached a senior NT before and qualified them for ANC and coached at ANC. So its unfair to insinuate he has no viable qualifications for the job. Certainly has more than the likes of Seedorf that Cameroon hired and even Senegal's current coach who did better than **** at the last ANC.mcal wrote: ↑Mon Sep 13, 2021 1:57 pm...sitting on the way side doing this, as oyinbo got automatic callfabio wrote: ↑Mon Sep 13, 2021 6:33 amSentimental aside, what was Rohr doing before he got employed by the NFF?Damunk wrote: ↑Mon Sep 13, 2021 5:22 am

He has the qualifications. The question is what has he done with them. No one is contesting what qualifications he has acquired.
We are NOT trying to disrespect him or any other Nigerian coach.
Oliseh has qualifications. Finidi has qualifications. I’m sure Amokachi and those other Nigerians coaching in remote Europe all have too.
If na qualification alone, there are thousand of them all over the world looking for a job.
But I’m surprised that getting Tanzania to qualify for AFCON is now seen as a ‘qualification’ in itself, good enough for Nigeria; but the AFCON bronze is rubbished as “no big deal” and ‘qualifying’ with games to spare is casually dismissed.
Then of course there is the hush-hushed fact that Amuneke’s Tanzania ended up DEAD LAST at the same AFCON (or was it second to last? Same difference). Let’s not even mention the club ‘experiences’ he has had since then.
Can you see how the debate isn’t really an honest one?
People are just refusing to hear the other side and forcing the opening of Amuneke’s Pandora’s Box which we’d all rather avoid.

Re: IF a Nigerian was the current SE coach he would have been fired
For a country that last qualified almost 40 years ago and as their only ever qualification to AFCON prior to Amunike's reign, one can say anyone that qualifies them deserve a chance. That person can make diamond out of cow turd.

My point is, Amunike has coached a few men's team and didn't crap himself while doing it. He actual got non football Tanzania to play well. One can only do so much with no skills. The man should be considered as a viable option for the management of the SE. His team plays with a purpose and tactically set up well and that what we need more than anything on the SE.

I will not be surprised IF Nigeria has won more ANC bronze than the number of times that Tanzania has qualified for the ANC.

Gaps happen, but Amunike has coached and won with our youth NT's and coached a senior NT before and qualified them for ANC and coached at ANC. So its unfair to insinuate he has no viable qualifications for the job. Certainly has more than the likes of Seedorf that Cameroon hired and even Senegal's current coach who did better than **** at the last ANC.mcal wrote: ↑Mon Sep 13, 2021 1:57 pm...sitting on the way side doing this, as oyinbo got automatic callfabio wrote: ↑Mon Sep 13, 2021 6:33 amSentimental aside, what was Rohr doing before he got employed by the NFF?Damunk wrote: ↑Mon Sep 13, 2021 5:22 am
How does Amuneke “deserve” a chance? On what basis?
Don’t get me wrong. I love the guy but that is just sentiment.
So what qualifies him to take charge of the Nigerian snr NT, other than the fact that he is a Nigerian?
In most professions, before you get hired not only do you have to show your qualifications and experience, you also have to account for any gaps in your CV.
So all sentiments aside, what has he been doing in the last two years?
Same with Finidi. Same with Oliseh.

He has the qualifications. The question is what has he done with them. No one is contesting what qualifications he has acquired.
We are NOT trying to disrespect him or any other Nigerian coach.
Oliseh has qualifications. Finidi has qualifications. I’m sure Amokachi and those other Nigerians coaching in remote Europe all have too.
If na qualification alone, there are thousand of them all over the world looking for a job.
But I’m surprised that getting Tanzania to qualify for AFCON is now seen as a ‘qualification’ in itself, good enough for Nigeria; but the AFCON bronze is rubbished as “no big deal” and ‘qualifying’ with games to spare is casually dismissed.
Then of course there is the hush-hushed fact that Amuneke’s Tanzania ended up DEAD LAST at the same AFCON (or was it second to last? Same difference). Let’s not even mention the club ‘experiences’ he has had since then.
Can you see how the debate isn’t really an honest one?
People are just refusing to hear the other side and forcing the opening of Amuneke’s Pandora’s Box which we’d all rather avoid.
Qualification for WC is not a big deal for Nigeria but it is a big deal for Togo! While Nigeria has qualified for WC many times Togo has done it only once so any coach that is able to do that for them will be highly rated.
What was Rohr's performance in Niger and even Burkina Faso? How different was it when compared with Amuneke?
I will be shocked IF Amuneke is not able to better Rohr's achievement with the SE given the same 'support' from the NFF!
