It is not about his performance. He was very good in the group stages. But it is a results business. He has to go.

You keep repeating this delusional nonsense. That is why you got rid of Rohr.

Maybe Rohr was pulling the best he could out of a bunch of overhyped players. Have you thought about that?

Agreed. Although, I think he should continue as interim for the play-offs.

I really wanted Eguavoen to do well, but not reaching at least semi finals for Nigeria is a terrible result.

With regret he has to go.

Unfortunately for you I'm not obsessed with him the way you are with Rohr. Rohr was poor and he was sacked. He will never coach Nigeria again...deal with it! Eguavoen is leaving because we didn't meet the high standards we set for ourselves.

Well he came in as interim, I guess we have to take our chances with the Peseiro guy.

2008 quarterfinal exit was worse.

No it wasn't.

Ghana was a better team than this Tunisia team.

Also we had a much better team today than in 2008.

this is the worst AFCON easily since I started watching afcons back in 1996.

You are disrespecting Tunisia because they struggled in the first round, but their team is pretty good even with their covid problems. I remember us looking very pedestrian in the group stages of the 2013 Afcon. Yet we went on to win it. The great African teams rise up to challenges, which is what the Carthage Eagles did today (just as we did in 2013 when we sent a superior Ivory Coast team packing).

Nothing we give me more pleasure that to see Nigeria fully engage its local capacity in coaching, so I wanted Eguavoen to have a good tournment, Nigeria has always got to at least the Semi finals in recent AFCONs so this is a real set back.

The situation that faces us now is that any replacement will have just 2 competitve matches before the world cup.

If that becomes the case then pragamatically anything we get from the World Cup now na just jara.

Where did I say that passing the second round is a high standard? Are you so bereft of understanding?

When you can't read properly you make yourself appear moronic. We have always reached the semi finals since 1982 (except in 2008). Those are high standards I referred to. Now read again and learn to control yourself like an adult.

No, worst result (outcome), not performance

If I recall correctly, the 1982 set lost all their group games

This team is disapointing because the outcome betrays their performance
