i believe that everyone deserves a chance i personnaly like amodu. all nairalanders just consider amodu as your brother, how would u feel when people say he is not good enough. another problem is that why didnt he use some of the players that played in the qualifiers. eneramo,adeleye and sam sodje. the future of nigerian football is great i paid to go and watch them against republic of ireland and those guys were lively and fast. i even met anichebe and yakubu while i was collecting an autograph from anichebe. yakubu was running away from the fans i was like what a proud a** hole. back to my main point, the player nigeria need are victor moses, victor anichebe, kelvin etuhu, nedum onouha, obadeyi of bolton, and there r three players of nigerian descent in tottenham, sone aluko. these guys r strong and fast and they dont lie of ages. because of our socalled footballers no one believes that i am seventeen. i kno most people hate anichebe when i came for holidays in 2008 and i was hyping about anichebe,people were like is this wat u bring from england. my reply was this guy is the next emile heskey. at least i prefer him rather than that unpatriotic agbonlahor. i wish charlton cole was given his chance to play for nigeria. nairalanders am a newcomer take it easy because from your posts there r lotsof area boys in this place. |

Nigerians asked Amodu to: Qualify Nigeria for the World cup. He did. Try to win the nations cup. He is on course. Sometimes soccer is not about good play. It is about getting a win. Many of you are screaming blue murder, but the man has taken us to the nations cup semi-final. Why don't we just pray for him to finish it up by winning the trophy? What is the use of being drogba without winning a nations cup trophy? I prefer to be Yakubu, as far as I can win the trophy. That is the point! I agree that the Team has not been playing well, and amodu is tactically inefficient, but you must all not forget that playing inefficiently and defensively is another strategy to dislodge opponents for success. Italy does that well. Thay do it as long as victory can be carved out. Italy used that type of play to win the World cup in 2006. They were one of the most inefficient teams in that tournament. They improved after each game. It showed after the World cup. If the eagles had attacked carlessly against Zambia, we would have lost scandalously. They simply kept the rampaging Zambians at bay. That was a defensive type of play. They soaked up pressure and tried to strike back. I foresee a return of the team that smashed Mozambique against Ghana. There is no reason for wishing our team failure, as most Nigerians are doing now. This is one of the reasons why I sometimes wish that I aint Nigerian. Imagine the ignorant rant of someone like Darkangel (I hope She/He is not Nigerian). Nigerians kill our team's confidence even before the start of a match. What if an SE player is in Nairaland, and is reading all these badluck wishes from his own countrymen? We make our opponents laugh and rejoice at our strange attitude. How can you boo your own team and cheer your opponents at home? How can you tell Amodu that no matter how far he goes in the tournament that he will be sacked? How can you tell a coach that sees how his players perform in training what to do? Nigeria will beat Ghana. We will humiliate them. Mark my words. If Amodu must go, let him go after he has finished his work. afterall Keshi did not take his star studded Mali team to the Quarter finals. God bless the Super Eagles. |

ochukoccna: Going by your words, The Camerounian team should be called the "Domitable lions" Were beaten by Gabon and Egypt. Drew with Tunisia and came from behind against Zambia. The Tunisian team should be called the "Cartheage fowls" Did not win any match against the likes of Gabon and Zambia The Ghanian team should be called the "Black outs" Lost 3-1 to Ivory coast and has not been playing well, winning by 1-0 and defending till the end. If Togo was around, I guess they may have been eliminated. The Ivorian team should be called "The rabbits" Drew with burkina faso and lost to Algeria. They seem to go too fast without winning a trophy. The Super Eagles Qualified for the World cup without loosing a match. Won two matches and lost one in the group stage. Beat their opponent in the Q/F stage after scoring all the spot kicks, and you still don't think that they are super? The single fact that they are playing with a technically deficient coach should tell you that they are very mighty. It is not in doubt that the Eagles are Super. I just don't like people coming to this forum and insulting the only thing that makes me proud of being a Nigerian. Up super Eagles! Win or lose, I remain a die-hard fan. |

Amodu plz no excuse o! We only need u 2 finish of d job in Angola by winning d cup.NFF Should support amodu with either siasia or stephen keshi then d team wil b back 2 dier best |
Re: I Wanted To Quit After Zambia Victory – Amodu by Kx: 9:02am On Jan 28, 2010 |
Seanlamzy09: If Amodu gets Keshi or Siasia assistance,what happens to Amokachi & co? Why did we suddenly 4get that Amokachi was actually the one dishing out instructions to the players while Amodu "siddon" look like the modakeke chief? It should be a clean house. If anybody is coming to assst Amodu,Amodu shud be demoted to assistant coach. Matter of fact,this clamour for assistance was on the basis of lack of confidence and trust in Amodu's 1970's BCC lions of gboko outdated coaching style. Amodu should be made to learn under a new coach,not the other way round. |

Justcash: Thanks @justcash - you're one of the people with a cool head about this issue. Honestly, one of the issues I have against most NLers and indeed most nigerians is that we're just ranting our own pessimistic opinions without giving the man on the hot seat an opportunity to defend himself. Or haven't you read his interviews about all the intrigue that's going on around the team's camp?Honestly, and whether we want to admit it or not, the hard truth is this: When it comes to really controversial issues such as this, we Nigerians tend to be strongly biased - we only see what we want to see, and we are too stubborn to admit that we need to change our negative attitude; in short, football-wise, Nigerians are not emotionally intelligent!. Amodu has results that any coach in the world (even Capello, Lippi, and even shehata) would kill to have. And you say he must be sacked? for winning without playing attractive football?Isn't the opposite why many of us write off Arsenal? pls be objective - don't play judge,jury and executioner before you go to court |

In as much as i have doubts about his technical / tactical efficiency, i think we should all cut him some slack now and try to support him for the duration of the tournament. Nigerians can be very hard to please at times. We asked him to qualify for the world cup.HE DID.Without losing a single game. We asked him to reach the semi-finals of the nations cup.HE DID.Whether he played the comoros islands or sao tome and principle in the quater finals is irrelevant. What more do we want of him? People keep saying he struggled to defeat zambia,but they convieniently forget that zambia topped a group that included cameroun and the same tunisia that almost stopped us from qualifying for the world cup. Weak teams dont top groups that include cameroun and tunisia. The time to sack Amodu has passed.They should have done it after the 2-2 draw with tunisia in abuja. Although i agree he needs technical assistance,Amodu deserves to take his team to the world cup. Let him enjoy the fruit of his labour. |

Re: I wanted to quit after Zambia's victory. The screening that was conducted, its clear that preferential treatment was used in the selection of players. Players was not choosed on merit or free and fair bases. Why was the U23 players of Olympic not used in this tourney. Ninety per cent of players in Ghanian team which beat us are U20. Its a big shame. Its time we select players on merit and fitness than on past glory. How did they qualify for the world cup. What will our match against Argentina be? If the argentinians go to the nite club on the eve of our match. They will come and give us six zero without training. I think we should step down from the world cup. |
