Why was Rohr sacked

Post by john12 »

Please, I am trying to be neutral as much as possible. Why was Rohr sacked?? He met his Target which were
Qualify us for the nations cup and reach at least semi final =
Qualify us for the World Cup? = Met

If he met all these target, why was he terminated? Was “beautiful football” written anywhere on his contract?? They problem is that, Nigerians overrate their players, disregard History and doesn’t learn their lesson. I just want someone to give me a good reason why Rohr was sacked.

FEELINGS

Simple as that.

He was sacked because some people didn't feel right even though all targets were being met.

Losing at home to Central African Republic while playing dreadful football is enough to warrant termination. Let's move on. Rohr would not have taken us to the promised land in this tournament.

Football isn’t a mathematical equation bro. The end supersede the beginning. Where was losing to CAR documented as a terminable offense? He still qualified at the end

Rohr was rightfully sacked IMO

But I despise the way the anti-Rohr brigade attacked every little thing he did or said and downplayed his achievements and expected miracles of him.

Yet a local coach fails miserably and they go hiding or the pathetic excuses are concocted. They will continue to tell us "local coach only"

Yet the last 3 local coaches have FAILED MISERABLY.

Rohr needs to be respected for what he achieved. Not my cup of tea, but I appreciate what he did.

He wasn’t rightfully sacked. You cannot sack someone for meeting their target. It is a basic principle

Lol. One of those local coaches won the AFCON and got to the WC 2nd round after being with the team for a shorter period than Rohr. Only one foreign coach achieved the same.

Menh, please this is NOT the time for bringing coach Rohr into the discussion. I am HURTING. We lost to Tunisia? When we didn't score in the first half, I knew there is a problem. When we lost a player, it was all over, I suspected

The problem was that Rohr was not fired earlier.

the last 3/4 local coaches failed MISERABLY in their afcon attempts

2022 Eguoavoen 2nd round loss
2017 Oliseh/SSS failed to qualify
2015 Keshi failed to qualify

That is a piss poor set of results, stop the spin these coaches are not up to it.

And how have our last 3 foreign managers fared? Keshi won the AFCON and got to the WC 2nd round. You know you want to wish that away but you can't.

He still qualified in the end, but left his employers with zero confidence that he could take us any further. When you lose the confidence of your employers you will normally get fired.

That's the bottom line.

In my view, Gernot Rohr, was correctly SACKED. You cannot have a coach manage Nigeria to three uninspiring results AT HOME and you keep that manager. There should be zero regrets for getting rid of Rohr. It is not as if he had won anything for Nigeria to earn a reprieve after those poor results at home. It was good riddance.
The difficulties of statistical thinking describes a puzzling limitation of our mind: our excessive confidence in what we believe we know, and our apparent inability to acknowledge the full extent of our ignorance and the uncertainty of the world we live in. We are prone to overestimate how much we understand about the world and to underestimate the role of chance in events -- Daniel Kahneman (2011), Winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics
