We Africans are behind tactically and we need to do more in tactical education.

I once read in Spain, before a player moves from most academies to senior football, they have over 700 games, tactically analysed under their belt.

In academies in Spain, UEFA pro licensed coaches coach them.
.

How many games did gavi play before making Spain's national team

Europeans are very tribal. So it may be about supporting Span:ish and Cata:lan players .

Koeman brought numerous to Barca.
Wolves former coach brought many Portuguese players to wolves.
Wenger brought many French players to arsenal.
Conte brings Italian players to his teams.

List of Nigeria's striker must include Osimhen. Players like Ighalo, Musa ,onazi and Shehu should not be anywhere near the S.E.

Nigeria currently has a golden generation and Eguavoen is messing it up by trying to "make everyone happy".

Depending on The amount of players that the tournament allows.. this are the S.E players that should be getting a call up.

Loved the Rosseneri when I was little.

Van Basten, Guillit, Baresi, Maldini, Costacuta forget that team was legit.

Joezinho:


Milan is one of the greatest football clubs of all-time, as well as one of the most significant contributors to football history. I won't forget how kaka, Gattuso and co won that epic 2006/07 UEFA semis against my club.

No, don't run away with that 'We Africans are behind' argument. Don't find an easy way out. You can do better. cheesy. He had the opportunity to work with some of the very best African players and he still kicked them out. grin. You can be in awe and still acknowledge he did so and so. The South Americans are not that far off in tactical illiteracy, although they have had incredibly talented players, and the means for them to rise to the top. That is not to say he has not been successful with his choices. He has been, and perhaps that is what matters. But i do not know who we would be if we didn't hate him for not playing African players. grin

So these players will have an edge with respect to tactical acumen.

Which makes a coach like Guardiola to prefer them. Not that he has a thing against African players.

First of all, we can not be close in tactical training than the Brazilians. The clubs in Brazil do a good job in early scouting and training. They may not have as much tactical training as the Europeans but they are far ahead of us in that sense.

There is no easy way out but the Truth. It is easier to take a player from one of the European academies and groom into a team than Africans, due to their early training.

What Africans do is meet up in other factors with hard work and training. With time they build tactically but coaches like Guardiola will mostly opt for Highly trained European players.

I am not throwing my people under a bus but stating Guardiola's psychology when it comes to player selection.

Seydou Keita was by far more talented than Busquets. Busquets was light years ahead of Keita in understanding and playing Pep's philosophy and remained the favorite choice.

So I am talking about tactical training and the edge it gives European players when it concerns coaches that hinge their philosophy highly on tactical discipline.

I am quite surprised that you consider this article useful. Apart from the fact that the author recounted his stints at various clubs in the championship and the fact that he led Brighton to promotion. I do not know where the title 'one of the most underrated managers' fits in. When we are unable to roll with those at the top, we resort to using some of these vague titles such as 'underrated' to comfort and remind ourselves that we belong. cheesy. I am not sure how the 'underrated' title can be scaled generally unless you are talking about world-class players/coaches. 'underrated' is definitely different from 'world-class', even though you could discuss underratedness amongst world-class players.
Okay I agree with you on the issue of world class, he isn't world class but you'll agree that he is far above eguavon.

Koeman brought numerous to Barca.

Conte brings Italian players to his teams.

Let us use Gavi for instance. Before joining Betis, he was in another youth club. Then went to Betis academy at around 9-10 years. In this stage, he got high-quality tactical training. In that time, scored 95 goals. Scouted by top clubs and by eleven signed for Barcelona.

Then he still got pro tactical training for about five years in Barcelona academy.

By the time he got his call up for Spain, he is already a highly trained tactical player.

There are people that can be given a pass for certain behaviours, I no dey send if I see an everyday Joe hobnobbing with these politicians, I understand times are hard

But when I see people who have actually built a reputation after many years of hardwork. Nah
