humility33:1994 set are not the problem, some of them might not be good enough, but how about some of them that are good? Siasia played good football with U20 WC and Olympic silver to show for it, Keshi won us AFCON, Amuneke won us U17 World cup. Oliseh and Finidi can b said to b woeful, Eguaveon failed but not woeful. Six of them have been tried on d national team job, three of them was successful, three of them failed. So how do u justify getting rid of them entirely when some has proven to b successful? 3 Likes |

All hope is not lost, we can still qualify to the world cup via playoffs or as the second best team cause the other teams above will inevitably drop points vs each other. But Finidi has to be honorably sacked before the summer abeg, nice of him to step up to the national call but tournament football is evidently far above him, African football isn't for just any Joe or Harry. A seasoned foreign coach has to he hired ASAP, doesn't matter if he's a journeyman, as long as he has a solid experience coaching in Africa. Get in a Rohr or Tom Saintfeit type of coach who have loads of tournament experience under their belt. These type of coaches will come cheap and they will fancy a chance to make history by qualifying us from a tough situation. Let's ditch the sexy football and play the Peseiro/Rohr unattractive but safe and effective type of football, a solid defensive football with pace on the counter. After we win our first two next games 1-0 or 2-0 then we can have the momentum that comes with winning. Lastly we must make sure all our experienced players are fit...Balogun has to be recalled. The likes of Ndidi,Iheanacho, Ajayi have to be permanently dropped for good, these guys simply are pass it. It's time for chances to be given to the likes of Ndah, Torunarigha, Benjamin Federick, Igoh Ogbu and even Tosin if he wants to take a shot at a world cup experience with Nigeria. In attack, it's time to build around Osimhen and try call up Solanke, Chuba Akpom and George Ilenikhena. We also need Simon Moses cause he's more experienced in this African tournaments. With a New foreign/experienced coach, a huge chop and change in this present squad, and the massive support of the government with funds and logistics...we will have a better fighting chance to qualify. Otherwise with Finidi or any of those guys from the 1994 generation, it's bye-bye to the world cup. 3 Likes |

yinkeys: Nwabali made a huge school boy error, running out of his goal 🥅 in panic leaving it WIDE OPEN gifting a goal to Ishola Olaitan. Bassey missed the clearance but had time to recover narrow the angle, block the shot, out muscle Ishola and or tackle him. Nwabali gifted the goal 🥅 poor decision making. Nwabali is not better than OKOYE that's not proven, add to that players improve. The Okoyr of today is not the same as yesterday 🤔 1 Like 1 Share |

As we're here debating about sacking Finidi or not, let's not forget the player factor too. This set of players lack the drive, zeal and passion we expected them to have. Imagine arriving camp two days to the first match. Time for training, Dem go carry phone and MP3 dey form. Imagine the rubbish the so called pros were serving us. Something they dare not do at their respective clubs. Like I said earlier, the players must show they need the world cup ticket more than anything else. 1 Like 1 Share |

I HAVE FANTASIZING GOOD NEWS🤪 that may come out to be real if this Eagles are super and get sense, march qualifier is when we should start clipping all these teams at the top😩😩 First leg in march MD5 Rwa v Nig Zim v Ben SA v Les i see the 4pts gap reducing to 1pt gap..if more determined full fledged and soundly coached 9ja team can beat Rwanda even if its 1-0..Gernot Rohr will struggle to beat Zim Next year, SA may likely extend their 4pts gap ahead of us by beating Lesotho More like SA 10pts Rwa 7pts Ben 7pts Nig 6pts Les 5pts Zim 5pts second leg in march MD6 Nig v Zim Ben v SA Rwa v Les By this second game, if super ugwu can jus help us nick Zim 1-0 and “Rohrpeseiro” the whole defense, i see us closing the gap, cos either SA beat Benin or Benin beat SA or both playing out a draw..if Benin does win SA and Rwa beat Les they all of them will be on same 10pts and 9ja will be 1 or 2 point behind them SA 11pts(draw) or 10pts (Loss) or 13pts(win) vs Ben Ben 10pts(win) or 8pts(draw) vs SA Rwa 10 pts(win) or 8pts(draw) vs Les Nig 9ts (win) vs Zim Les 5pts Zim 5pts Then september fixtures will now tell you who is going to the world cup cos in september it will be MD7 Ben v Zim Les v SA Nig v Rwa MD 8 SA v Nig Ben v Les Zim v Rwa september matches will give us the doctor scan report of who is going to the WC THATS IF NFF, COACHES AND PLAYERS CAN BRING IN SOME MAD TURN AROUND 🔥….or atleast give us the energy of games we played against Guinea Bissau, Cameroon,Angola at Afcon 2 Likes |

Majority of the European leagues ended 3weeks before d South Africa 🇿🇦 game,so what excuse do Dey have …I am surprised majority here are shying away from dis obvious indiscipline from our foreign players But if na tanimu or Sodiq play rubbish,dem ready paste 2pages to analyze y he shldnt be involved with eagles again 😏😏😏 |

dijon: Totally agree with you on this. I however think the bolded absolves the administrators of responsibility. Yes the media can be funny but they don't make these decisions. Their options on NFF leadership doesn't move a needle, their opinion on policy chances doesn't move a needle we can't then credit them with coaches appointment and player invitation. They are free to have an opinion on who should be the coach or who should be invited, it is however the responsibility of the NFF to take the best decision on the interest of Nigeria and historically the NFF hasn't been known to do that. |

elyte89: What you fail to realise is that our qualification is no longer in our hands. Even if we hypothetically win all of our games, any of those teams with 7 points can still afford to lose one game to us and win the rest and still qualify. So we do not just need to win we need 3 teams to lose to us and draw or lose at least 1 more game. |
