Very unserious set of individuals. Why trying to confuse the interim coach. Allow him focus on the job at hand.

arantess:
Agreed

wealthpreach:

Football and it's tactics has evolved. it's not about foreign or indigenous coaches, it's all about strategy.

paulolee:
so why make him an interim n why announce paseiro as the chosen man to coach d eagles if they ain't sure?
the same pinick dt said he doesn't want a local coach o, or he is scared of the disaster ahead if he goes ahead n gv the white man dt job after seeing the good works of eguaveon n the white man ends up failing like it happened to largerback, this time both pinnick n his foreign coach would be sacked.
a normal thinking country would avoid given this eguavon the job weather he wins AFCON or not bcox the change is glaring n its more safer than going for the "so called angel" we don't even know..

It will not work. The hype in the media seems to be preplanned to make way for Eguavoen. I have watched this man's team in 2005/2006 and I must say, it will be the same thing. What people have refused to see is that Afcon was even expanded and that means u will have weaker teams. Data has shown that Nigerian has always played her best football under foreign coaches - from golden 1994 to the 1998 team, even 1980 was coached by a Brazilian.

SE will beat Tunisia on Sunday and I am so sure about it as these are my reasons
1) SE is the only team in the Afcon that has not conceded a goal from open play while Tunisia has conceded 2 goals from open play.
2) SE has scored against all it's opponents so far in the Afcon while Tunisia has scored against only one opponent which is poor Mauritius.
3) SE is playing on its home turf in Garouha because they have played all their games there and the home fans are behind them unlike Tunisia.
4) SE has scored first in all the matches they have played so far and Tunisia has not conceded first and won the same game in this Afcon so far.
5) SE plays the best Brand of football in the Afcon with a very devastating counter attack while Tunisia plays possessive football that in very vonulrable to counter attacks.
6) SE has the compliment of their full squad while Tunisia has alot of absentees for the game due to Corona virus.
7) SE has beaten a North African team already in this Afcon while Tunisia has been beaten by 2 west African countries already in this Afcon.
You see it will take a very big miracle for Tunisia to spring an upset on Sunday except SE experience a very drastic and unexplainable lose of form within this few days to the match......... Tunisia does not stand a chance against SE and you can take my word to the bank.

He currently has that on his CV. Coached the team prior to now. Peradventure he wins the tournament, he should step down honourably and continue his role as technical director.

Better when the ovation is loudest!!

JOemmy:


No foriegn coach have ever won the world cup nigeria should stick to their local coaches until they get it right.

na2016:


A balanced view is always better. Can you compare our level of football development with those countries? England where football originated, at a point, went for foreign coaches. Nigeria should use foreign good coaches and achieve great things. I don't know how old you are but let me tell you that there is a time Nigeria gave most of the indigenous coaches chance but they couldn't achieve much except for Late Stephen Keshi who won the AFCON. Note that even late Keshi had so much experience/international exposure with the Togolese national team before the NFF gave him a chance. Someone may also mention the late Amodu Shoiba. Aside from the World cup qualifier that he helped the team achieve, when he was given a full chance, Nigeria played mediocre football.
If you want to understand more of what I am saying, go and watch highlights of Nigeria at AFCON 1994, USA 1994, Atlanta 96, and Nigeria under Philip Troussier.

Let me add that, with the way Nigeria works, the sudden hype on the media space may probably have been created to make a case for Equavoen.

JOemmy:



There is always a room for growth nigeria have come of age in football if other countries can hire our coaches for their national teams and clubs why can't nigeria also believe in their own? Many of the coaches who came to nigeria in the early years of nigeria's football development didn't even have any reputation or achievements in their various countries before coming here to experiment with our national teams we need to stop feeling inferior to the white man the nff can sponsor nigerian local coaches for training in the best coaching schools in the world if they are really serious about football development in nigeria.

na2016:


It is not about feeling inferior. Bora was a top coach when he joined our national team. Some of those coaches, I mentioned were probably doing fine in their countries before joining us.
A key issue with Nigerian coaches is that they are always easily influenced. Tell me what Umar Sadiq is doing in this present team? If we play Ivory coast or Mali, what can that particular guy do in the team?

paulolee:

I swear, very confused..the same pinnick dt said he doesn't want a local coach o, it seems dey are forced to bow to pressure from the good works of eguaveon..
I see another change of scripts if mr eguavoen isnt dt lucky enough to win the AFCON..
we go hear another excuse why dm go gv dt mourinho guy d job..

dannypaul:
These are unnecessary distractions honestly

If I was to be Eguavoen, after the tournament, I will continue my position as the technical director.

Job stability, less pressure, zero worries
