Is this true peeps. How sure are we. What about the #buynaijatogrowthenaira, where has it gone to. Why a foreign coach now. Latter they will say they don't have the money to pay the local coach but there will be money to hire a foreign coach.

Men just saw it on bleacher football report. Got to say I am caught in two. Nigeria surely has gotten past hiring a foreign manager. Other than the fact that they are really expensive to hire we should by now have in line a long list of competent ex pros ready to take the national team job. Having said all of this Redknapp is a wily manager and vastly experienced too that if he is available, willing, and on the cheap no way in heavens should we miss out on him. Interesting I got to say.

He is known for finding a solid replacement on bench for every available position. Something we really need in the senior team. At least some peeps will wake up faster than The Undertaker does.

Hope this is true and i hope he clinches it. But NFF? They can make Guardiola look like Lagerback with their conduct.

Not blown away. We actually need a total football coach to build a creative attacking team. A team good in possession to cope with our rising midfield talents.

The likes of Iwobi, Ifeanyi Matthew, Obinna Nwobodo, Popoola, Musa Yahaya, Etebo, Azubuike, K. Nwakali, C. Nwakali etc.

Harry Redknapp is not a perfect fit for our talents but he is a good coach.

If we must sign a foreign coach, pick still remains Marcelo Bielsa. He is also without a job now.

Another Coach the NFF should give a shot is Marcelo Bielsa. The Coach who led Athletico Bilbao to the Europa League final, beating Sir Alex Ferguson's Manchester United along the way.

His style of football fits us and he likes creative brilliant players.

Report on Marcelo Bielsa's coaching style.

Bielsa's signature formation in his squads, which he made famous and brought to the front of the world's mainstream football scene during his coaching tenures in the Argentina national football team, Chile national football team, Athletic Bilbao and Olympique de Marseille, is the 3-3-3-1 formation.

For this formation, the players are: 3 defenders (1 líbero with 2 stoppers at each side), 3 midfielders (1 central midfielder with 2 lateral-volantes at each side), 3 attacking midfielders (1 enganche and 2 wingers at each side), and 1 centerforward. 3-3-3-1 allows great transitions from defending to attacking, as many of the players used in the formation can perform both defensive and attacking tasks. Moreover, it establishes superiority in numbers in every part of the field, since with this formation his teams could defend with 7 players, attack with 6-7 players, or protect a scoreline by overwhelming the midfield with 6 players. To use 3-3-3-1, all players have to quickly set to attacking positions when the ball is in the team's possession, and all players have to aggressively press and recover the ball when it isn't in possession, so it requires great teamwork and understanding between teammates.

This signature style of Bielsa's has had so much influence in the football scene that many present coaches, former players under Bielsa's command, are heavily influenced by the style, such as Gerardo Martino, Mauricio Pochettino, Matías Almeyda and Marcelo Gallardo. Former Barcelona manager Pep Guardiola credited Bielsa as his tactical inspiration. Jorge Sampaoli has been described as a 'disciple' of Bielsa.

Bayern Munich and former Barcelona manager Josep Guardiola called him the "best manager in the world" in 2012.

Taking from Bielsa's Wikipedia page.

lol see how you water the man grin

well since we need stability first, i'll go for him.

The foreign talents alone pass 56. And 7of those alone are at Arsenal, Oshoala inclusive.


Can the NFF handle this 'overload'?

Well for now, Siasia it is for me.
