I'm not happy with your performance sir, so Nigeria won't be going for 2026 world cup, we didn't qualify for the 2022 world cup tournament as well. it won't be fair to lay all the blame on him though, some of our players have become very lackluster and should be discarded, they've outlived their usefulness, the mediocre ones among them, we need players that are ready to play and win matches for Nigeria, Nigeria is blessed with a lot of talented footballers but corruption has messed everything up 75 Likes 6 Shares |

Jalla to NFF: Forget 2026 W’Cup, prepare for 2030 edition Head of the Professional Footballers Association of Nigeria Task Force Harrison Jalla has advised the Nigeria Football Federation to start preparations for the 2030 World Cup rather than hire a foreign coach for the Super Eagles. Jalla stated this following the federation’s decision to seek the services of a foreigner for the Eagles after their poor performance in the qualifiers for the 2016 World Cup. Ostensibly unhappy with the team’s dismal outing in their recent qualifying matches, which saw them force South Africa to a 1-1 draw in Uyo and lose 2-1 to Benin Republic in Ivory Coast, the football body on Thursday evening announced its decision to bring in an expatriate coach to boss Finidi George for the remaining World Cup qualifying matches and the upcoming AFCON qualifiers, leaving a rash of bitter reactions in its wake. Jalla said the problem of the Eagles and Nigerian football was administrative, which the NFF didn’t have both expertise and capacity to address. “Nothing can be done to salvage the situation; we are already out of the 2026 World Cup and should be preparing for the 2030 edition. The former President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) tried his best, but we still couldn’t qualify for the 2022 edition in Qatar because the people in the NFF don’t know what to do,” Jalla told our correspondent on a telephone interview. “This is a sheer waste of time. Do they expect the coach to do everything? The problem of the team is administrative and organisational, which the NFF can’t provide. “Our football has been on a free fall for the last 10 years, and there are no remedies for it because the wrong people are running it. “In our time, we used to have a standby team where players in the domestic league would vie for spots against foreign-based counterparts. But that is no longer the case.” Related News 1985 U-17 Word Cup winning coach, Sebastian Broderick dies of stroke Jalla added, “What happens these days is the coach coming down to Nigeria during FIFA windows to gather the players in three days and play matches, or the players strolling into camp two or three days before a crucial match. “We should have a sound technical committee that is bigger than the coach, and that will draw up programmes for the coach. We used to have people like Austin Akosa and Segun Odegbami on that committee.” Also, former Flying Eagles star Tajudern Disu, who is the Technical Director of the Lagos State FA, laughed off the NFF’s decision, which he said was the original game plan of the officials of the body, after they picked Finidi George over Emmanuel Amuneke. “I said it from the beginning that these NFF people would mess Finidi up. They knew Amuneke was the best indigenous coach who applied for the job, but they chose Finidi because they could control him and make him fail, so, they could hire a foreign coach. “That has been their plan, and they said it loud and clear. “Nigerians were agitating for an Indigenous coach, which the NFF didn’t want, and the only way they satisfied Nigerians and still had their way was to appoint an indigenous coach. They will make sure the coach doesn’t live up to expectations and thus put an end to the agitation for an indigenous coach. “As it is now, no indigenous coach can apply for the job at the moment or soon.” 4 Likes |

Happy Resignation. ![]() It's becoming obvious that only an Oyibo coach can better manage these our egocentric, dollar-earning, foreign-based S/Eagles "big boys". Doubt if they'll accord any local coach much respect. An Oyibo coach will also better manage the ethnic diversity of our players. 25 Likes 1 Share |

I don't see the present crop of Super Eagles winning anything in football in the near future. I'll prefer they be disbanded and a new team raised for the country. No coach will be able to win anything for Nigeria with these guys right now. They are too average, too proud and too lazy. 7 Likes 1 Share |
