Not interested anymore
I have gotten to the point that I am not interested in SE anymore. The players are not good. The players lack the needed passion for the game. The coach is not it. Could you imagine a local coach losing against Portugal by this margin and still smiling after the game? Until the day, Nigeria mumu finishes and realize that Foreign coaches no get 2 brains, I am done investing any emotions with this team. I can't believe I paid extra $10 for ESPN plus to watch this trash. I will not use my money to watch SE, will not sponsor anything SE for the foreseeable future. I will rather focus on Arsenal and US national team. SE are the best at disappointing their supporters. My friend who is from the Caribbean a Cardio Thoracic Surgeon said that he followed and supported the SE for years and SE kept disappointing him. He said he got to the point that he had enough and decided to follow Argentina ( that hurt me).
Investing your time with SE is an exercise in futility.

Re: Not interested anymore
So the problem is foreign coaches ?
Last I checked local coach failed to qualify for world cup going up against a coach, coaching his FIRST game for Ghana
Last I checked thos same local coach gave us our worst AFCON in 30 years
Last I checked 2 local coaches failed to qualify for 2 separate afcons.
Certainly the problem is not foreign coaches of you have any ounce of honesty in you.

Re: Not interested anymore
The problem is not only foreign coaches but a big part of the problem is the foreign coaches changing. Every foreign coach has their own ideas and styles. The core of Nigerian style is found in our youth teams. No wonder they all play the same way. Our National Team always look lost.vancity eagle wrote: ↑Fri Nov 18, 2022 3:02 pm So the problem is foreign coaches ?

These coaches that you claimed to have failed us where only given the job as a fire brigade approach when their predecessor screwed up( be it local or foreign).
Apart from Keshi( successful coach) who was given a full contract, please tell me another local coach who was given a contract that failed to qualify in recent times?
Look, it appears You've chosen to die on sword of foreign coaches but realize you know these foreign coaches aren't necessarily improving our team that much despite the huge cost.
Deep down, I know you know it's the truth but your pride wouldn't let you admit it.
Re: Not interested anymore
...I am a part-time SE watcher. My national team to watch and follow will be the USA.
Nigeria football problem is the ogas at the top, bunch of incompetent armature thieves masquerading as if they know what they are doing.
Until that is fixed, we'll continue to have poor coaches, hey-you players.
Nigeria has become a damn joke.

Re: Not interested anymore
Oh boy, I think I'm done with the Super Eagles.
It is quite clear that Nigeria is not ready to build a team.
Na everyday wey them dey invite new player to join the team and to come scatter everything.
When are we going to try to build a team A and Team B?
We keep mixing stuff around and never settle.
Instead of just focsuing on strategy and working on a pattern, they just keep inviting new players and reshuffling them.
The thing done tire me oh.
Honestly, at this point the only solution might be to just let everybody go except for Victor Oshimen and maybe 1 or 2 other players and just start with our under 23 squad. At least they already have a pattern and them dey play team game.
This current Super Eagles squad play like strangers. They can't beat any team, not even Mexico. Let everybody just go and play at their clubs. They are blended with their clubs and not with the Super Eagles.

Re: Not interested anymore
The biggest problem is that our players are not ambitious enough. And the painful truth is that Nigerians are the reason. Most Nigerians are losers and have zero ambition. Again, thats the reason they voted for a dead person, Buhari, TWO TIMES! Thats the reason you see young people supporting a lifeless corpse, Tinubu and a fattened criminal thief, Atiku.
Nigerians are losers! This is a fact that you guys have to accept. You have a bunch of them supporting clubs like Arsenal and Tottenham, that lose repeatedly and have zero ambition. How many Nigerians do you see supporting Madrid? Barca? Bayern? Chelseaa? Even City of today? Most of them are Arsenal supporters and tottenham.. They are sexually attracted to losing and failure.
Then you have the recent trend of cybereagles -- CE members sharing link to a Div 2 game or backwater league to "follow our players!" I couldnt believe my eyes. Why wont the players be losers and failures, when we have created a comfortable environment for them to be losers and failures??
Do you remember the days when it was a cardinal sin to lose at National Stadium in Surulere? And we went for more than 25 years or so, without losing? Today, we transfer games across the country, to sh1t stadia and our team gets humiliated by crap teams and they are allowed to leave the stadium smiling and waving.

Re: Not interested anymore
Even seeing Ghana being welcomed by Ghanaians in Qatar lead my their own local coach made me more sad for Nigeria but proud of Ghana. I hope they do well. I suspect they will.
I am so glad these players didn't get to go to the World Cup. Imagine player and coach fighting for Pepe's jersey after their butt was handed to them by Portugal. Imagine a goalie laughing after the game and hugging Bruno Fernandes.Imagine our foreign coach smiling after being questioned about Dennis refusing to hand the ball to the Captain to take the penalty. Nigeria is going nowhere. The only place we will see relative success is in our youth teams.

Re: Not interested anymore
Sometimes, I feel like we should have 70% of our team based on local players. These local players will be training with each other at least 4 times a month for at least 3-4 years to really gel.

Honestly, where you are, I arrived there after Russia 2018. After getting back from Russia, it hit me that Nigeria had lost to Argentina by 1 goal in 5 of its 6 world cups.

Re: Not interested anymore
Let me state categorically that many Nigerian fans lack emotional maturity (no pun intended). We continue to apportion blames left and right...Today bad administration, tomorrow choice of coach ?? When are you guys ever gonna come to terms that the current crop of players (local or foreign) are simply not good enough to compete at international level? They lacked the quality to beat any well-drilled team, even if the players are of lower quality than Nigeria’s. The current NFF administration (Amaju or Gusau) are much better than the past administrations, including the Super Eagles's golden era administrator (Emeka Omeruah 1993–1997). Westerhof was not all that as well for christ sake, but we had so many hungry phenomenal players at that time.highbury wrote: ↑Sun Nov 20, 2022 6:58 am Sometimes, I feel like we should have 70% of our team based on local players.

We have these so called foreign based players who gather few days before a match, then try to learn about each others' style of plays and movements.
We have a long way to go to return to the apex of world and African football again.
