Stop spreading falsehood. The criticism has nothing to do with tribe but approach. You have not supported Manu Garba more than many here. Are you okay with the NFF picking a team for Manu Garba? Is that how he worked to pick Iheanacho and co.?

One of my best coaches in the history of Nigeria is Musa Abdulahi. So stop spreading it. I hate tribalism in football.
Dey deceive yourself!

Amuneke did open screening? Lol! I need evidence! It's not an open secret that Nwakali etc were selected based on recommendation and compensation. He only gave tryout to the players recommended to him just like Manu is doing.

Osimhen was discovered in an open screening. That is enough evidence for you.

Osimhen was part of those recommended and he gave a tryout to them. Simple! Many players were recommended and he gave a tryout to select the best among them just like Manu is doing.

Osimhen himself explained that it was open screening. He came with his friend the first day and there was no room for them to tryout. That the next day his friend refuse to show for the screening while he went for it and he got picked.

2013 and 2015 were open screening. Osimhen did not come on recommendation.

More than 4000 talented players from all over the country thronged the pitch of the FIFA Goal Project in Abuja, Nigeria’s political capital, looking for a chance to make it into the team.

Amuneke found a way to see many of them play. He would group the boys into teams with a 30-minute time limit.

It was when Osimhen first came on his radar. The young lad was brought from Lagos by his first agent,

not sure. It's expected that amunike will be the one but I've checked all their social media and nothing is there. Even checked the NFF website but the last news there was on the 18th. Even adepoju tobi that usually drops NFF news is silent. It's only a matter of days.

Funny enough, Gervonta is the only guy to have inflicted Garcia's only Pro defeat.
Garcia's win over "The Dream" Haney really cause ripples but the lad is no slouch. Top fight with 3 Knock downs all by Garcia.

Blueelf:
Garcia beat haney like small pikin

Sorry to derail guys but I didn't see this coming guys

Like bascovanveli thesupernerd. Una see am

As in I couldn't have expected that in a thousand years , garcia would touch hanry

Means we have been overeating devil Haney for a long time

This also means that gervonta is too much for that division and he should move up

Hopefully,that gives haney some humility.

The ball touched his body first before touching his hand and the incident wasn't as severed as this pic. I watched it

Which body first? If it touched him last why was Corner not given?

This has been my argument! Once the name is Garba/Abdul... etc., he is not qualified. Mind you, their Amuneke was an understudy to this same man oo but that doesn't stop people like him from discrediting Manu!
Don't mind him

So far with Nigeria Manu has the better credentials
Anyway I wish their Amunike the best
At last he finally got the job all of them have been lobbying for

Even when it comes to local coach
I will pick Manu Garba to coach the super eagles over Amunike

He successfully managed under 17 and under 20 and even an NPFL side

The other one had a failed career in Zambian and Egyptian league and under 20

We are not telling ourselves truth in this country

The under 20 job too I don't know how Ladan Bosso merit that job

TheSuperNerd:
Biffo is Golden Eaglets 1st assistant coach
*Olumide Ajibolade is 2nd assistant coach



Newly appointed coach of NPFL side Sporting Lagos, Abdullahi Biffo, has been named as the first assistant coach of the Golden Eaglets.

The former Katsina United and Kwara United coach is a resident of the United States of America, where he has bagged several coaching badges.

Biffo also applied to be the head coach of the national U17s.

Beyond Limits Football Academy coach Olumide Ajibolade is the Eaglets second assistant coach.

I think Ladan Bosso need all this brainy assistant more because that man know nothing about football tactics with his lopsided team selection

Whenever you see the NFF Tech committee in slow mo to appoint a coach, just know that they want that coach to fail. They will end up appointing d said coach few weeks to a crucial game. Most times, the indigenous coaches suffers such. So we all should wait for it. Another indigenous coach is coming for SE. Those idiats will rather sacrifice our world cup than see a home grown coach succeed. So guys all the best of luck to who will get the mantle. Also best of luck to Manu Garba. It no go easy for them.
hmmm, starting to make sense

Haney doesn't have power na. I kind of expected it cos outside of the blatant mistakes Garcia did ok vs Tank. Plus his power makes anybody think twice. I think this just proves that Tank Davis is clearly on top of the mountain. Cos he would murder Devin
