John Obuh tells NFF perfect coach for Super Eagles job By Don Silas Former Nigeria U-17 team coach, John Obuh, says Augustine Eguavoen is the perfect coach to take charge of the Super Eagles when they clash with the Black Stars of Ghana. Obuh called on the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) to allow Eguavoen continue as coach of Nigeria’s national team ahead of the Super Eagles’ World Cup qualifying playoffs fixtures against Ghana on March 23 and 29. Eguavoen stepped down from the Super Eagles interim coaching job immediately after Tunisia eliminated his side from the AFCON 2021 in Cameroon. The 56-year-old reverted to his role as the Technical Director of the NFF. “Eguavoen should be allowed to handle the Eagles since he took the challenge of taking the team to the AFCON within a short time notice and proved he could do the job by winning all the group games,” Obuh told the Guardian. “I believe the team’s defeat by Tunisia in the Round of 16 has taught him some lessons, which will be useful during the [World Cup] qualifiers [Nigeria vs Ghana].” https://dailypost.ng/2022/01/31/nigeria-vs-ghana-john-obuh-tells-nff-perfect-coach-for-super-eagles-job/ |

‘Forget About AFCON Disappointment, Focus On World Cup Qualifier Against Ghana’ –Eguavoen Urges Eagles Austin Eguavoen has urged the Super Eagles players to put the disappointment of the AFCON 2021 behind them and focus on the 2022 World Cup qualifier against Ghana in March. After a brilliant start to the ongoing AFCON in Cameroon, the Eagles were shocked 1-0 by Tunisia in the round of 16. The Eagles had a perfect record in the group stage after winning all their three games and went into the knockout tie against the North Africans as favourites. However, a Youssef Msakni’s second half goal was enough to seal victory for the Carthage Eagles. And speaking to the players and backroom staff before the team left departed Cameroon, Eguavoen thanked everybody for their contributions and urged them to put the disappointment aside and focus on the challenges ahead. “It is a bitter pill to swallow no doubt about it but human beings proposes and God dispossess,” he said in a video published on NFF TV. “I have decided with the entire crew just to have a word with you guys because you will be travelling back and we might not have the opportunity to gather. This is just to show appreciation to you players and the backroom staff. “What we’ve been hearing about you guys turned out to be wrong, because you guys have displayed professionalism big time. Commitment, togetherness, love, passion, dedication everything put together nothing is missing at all. So I want to say congratulations for your performance but we were striving for something but we couldn’t get it. It’s one of those in life. It’s very painful to exit the tournament in the round of 16 with the calibre of players that we have. “But my joy is that at least we were able to impact something and the response from you guys was amazing. This morning I got a call from the honourable minister and he told me to let you guys know that you shouldn’t bury your head down, heads up and he is very satisfied with the performance so far. The NFF president also called me, the General Secretary called me, Barrister Akinwunmi called me, Shehu Dikko called me. For them to still believe in this team I think it’s a plus. Now we will be travelling back home I know you will hear some positive things and negative things, it is normal in life for whatever reasons because Nigerians they love football and that’s what brings smiles to their faces. “So a lot was expected and we couldn’t meet the expectations. Not their expectations because first of all you first which is important, we couldn’t meet our expectations which is okay, it happens football. But I want you to continue to believe in yourselves because you still have a whole lot of job to do for yourselves and the nation. The World Cup qualifier is close, the quicker we take this off our mind the better for everybody. “The fact that we still have the NFF in support of what we are doing we now see we don’t have anything to worry about. It was hard for me to sleep but what do I have to do, take it digest and just move on, mistakes are there to be made. Turn your ears to negative thoughts and think positive. “It was a very short tournament for us, some people got to play some didn’t get to play but the way we took it is very encouraging and I want to urge you to continue in that line because it will come to your turn also to be in the shoes. If you wish your teammates well it will also go well with you. But if you have a bad mind it will have a way to get back to you whether we like it or not. “So I want to say a very big thank you to the staff here, very supportive. We said it from day one there would be ups and downs there would be argument but for a reason for the same objective. Believe me the progress we’ve made right from December I think is wonderful. So it’s not easy but please don’t bury down your head, heads up and continue to do what you know how to do best in your clubs and hopefully, I’m still the director of football in Nigeria and the Football Federation, we will do everything possible because the platform is already there, it doesn’t matter who is in charge but the country first. We don’t have any other country to coach or to play for but the country first. “So whenever any of us is called upon please do not hesitate. There will be some negative words from social media but it is normal it is the way they feel, the spur of the moment it’s emotions one game can change the whole situation. l know it’s difficult to take but please let us try. “For the skipper, I appreciate your leadership and the way we’ve gone about this whole thing is unique so let’s enjoy the moment and when we meet our bosses back home they will tell us what the next programme would be. “At this point I want to say a big thank you to you guys and try to cheer up and we wish ourselves the best of luck God bless you all.” https://www.completesports.com/forget-about-afcon-disappointment-focus-on-world-cup-qualifier-against-ghana-eguavoen-urges-eagles/ 5 Likes |

Lol His going to Denmark is not a mistake . Compenhagen doesn’t have the record of overpricing players so I don’t know why you think they will suddenly do so Mohammed kudus and sulemana all came from the danish league to Ajax and Rennes respectively Most times everything mustn’t be Belgium holland or Scotland ,and the last time I checked only 2 reasonable clubs Dey Scotland 6 Likes 2 Shares |

humility33: I understand you perfectly well, remember Peseiro is already contacted to take over, in case Austin fails in Afcon, that's why he is yet to sign a contract, cos The Nff had Austine in consideration, It became a bit hard, since Austin lose out in second round, so they had to Iron out some basic things, and Austin a part to play, he had even step down from the position sef, He should show his intent, by resigning his role as a Technical Director of the glasshouse, even the sport minister had throw his hart in, until those things are solved a coach can't be appointed yet, if anything Austin should had consider things before stepping down, until a coach had been appointed, which can even be himself, |

Is iwobi not in a precarious situation now at Everton? With van de Beek and Alli joining, i think his romance with the bench might continue. I like the guy but what next now, it seems his career is currently going in the wrong direction. I really hope Lampard's appointment can just do something positive with his career and fortunes at Everton. 2 Likes |
