Funny again. You can't imprint your philosophy as an assistant coach. That is basic knowledge. There are many coaches that were sacked and their assistants transformed the team. Remember the sacking of Ten Hag and how Nistelrooy improved their results with tactical changes.

You can see your point has no backing or clues in anyway. You just ranted something that is literally not true in anyway.
The outrage when we lost the ticket to Ghana called for even disbanding the team by extremists. Heck, when NFF got us in dire straits and turned to Eguavoen, we saw kicks against it with people citing the WCQ.

I didn't know it will difficult to reason out for you that those two names (AE and EA) stirs shit storms with fans. If simple things like this are rants to you, I see why some of your takes are usually over the fence.

Baba, I quoted your own post saying we should "tell ourselves the truth"

If your choice of words betrayed your intent, it is okay. No come make am look like say I and others are not right to object to how your words portrayed everyone else as running from "the truth"

Such harsh decisions like not given kids, kids, winter coats or allowances when they are going to defend the pride of the Nation is beyond NFF clumsiness. That was pure evil.

Sorry, I don't see any other reason. If you find, let me know. I will welcome it.

For those that didn't know who Segun Odegbami was, watch out for that guy in the number "7" Jersey wink

When we rate players of the 70s and 80s we no dey exaggerate.

Napoleon55, with these kind of mesmerizing Skills is Odegbemi not worthy of top 5? grin
Uncle Sege is very skillful I must confess.
The video clip I watched he was even more mesmerizing.

When I update my list,I will see where I can put him.

There is no reasoning but clear point. You can't input your philosophy on a team as an assitant coach over a head coach that has his. It is very simple. You can't reason it. It is a plain fact.

You can't blame Amunike for Eguavoen missing out of the World Cup. It is illogical.

It is incompetence and corruption. It has manifested itself across all the NT teams.

Singling one out to say it's ethnicity is lazy and simplistic.

I am not surprised you don't still get it. You often look at a field through a straw.

I am saying that AE and EA are names that cause emotional outbursts among fans because of that WCQ. Good luck absolving EA from the matter but fans still will kick and scream at those two names if given the team.

We saw recently when AE was announced to interim capacity, how there was enough gnashing of teeth.

You will only be able to fight NFF for not having faith in EA inspite of it.

Mujtahida:

Speech might be commonplace but it is very important. It was from his speech that I began to fear for Finidi. In the beginning was the word! After Rohr breezily qualified us for Russia 2018, his speech became diffident and full of excuses.

If the word is not right, everything is likely to go wrong. But I understand that you want action to speak louder than voice.

But like Bishop Fulton Sheen once wrote: speech is the summation of a soul:what it was, what it is and what it will be.

I wish Chelle all the best.

You agreed that Ronaldinho is the most skillful player of all time.

Now,these questions for u.

1.Why does the world think Ronaldinho is the most skillful footballer?

2.Is it by doing these basic things like heading,shooting, defending,passing and ball control u listed here as skills better than others?

3.Or is it by executing something else more technically challenging and tricky on the pitch?
His technique in executing the above and more as a midfielder. Say for step over he's not the best Robinho and Denilson take that for me.
Rabona Zizou is the baba. But Dinho can do much more.

Story. Amunike's case is pure ethnicity. They know he is good. If Amunike was a Northerner or Yoruba man, he would have landed that job in a flash. Let us tell ourselves the truth. That was why his U17 team was the most sabotaged and his U20 suffered the same. That was why they had a cold reception after winning the U17 World Cup.

Unless you have a credible reason, I only see his ethnicity as the problem.
Uhmmm Goodjoe ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธI'll disagree with you. I do place Amuneke in same bracket I put Oliseh. Most of the the guys at nff won't want these guys as coach of SE cos it will be problem for them. Oliseh only got the job due to Pinnick influence.

I remember reading about him complaining of not even having food for his U17 team and having to feed the with Cabin biscuits and pure water. NFF. Shaking my head.
Don't you think it's due to lack of organisation from the nff because numerous coaches have face this same issue. Siasia face this at u20 and even the Olympic, so bro it's not ethnic whatever but corruption or lackadaisical attitude of our football managers.

I don't think it is lack of organization. It is more of what Emir Sanusi termed "vested interest". Meaning some people benefit from failures. We are talking of winter coats and footwears for kids going to represent the country.

When his CV is brutally above the competition, I see some bad eggs switching to plan B of giving him the job and massively sabotaging the person. We saw it with Stephen Keshi. It was literally open. He was winning games and qualifying for a tournament and still getting reports of bringing in a technical adviser (won't mention the name of the person but a footballing Super Eagles legend).

This time, I think those eggs did not want to take the gamble.

Amaju pinnick was one of the arrow head insisting on a foreign technical adviser when keshi was our main coach. The same Amaju now accusing Nigerians of racism because of Chelle. phew

WC third place at least. That should be the goal
semid4lyfe:
Pick one target for the Super Eagles coach, Eric Chelle

1. World Cup Qualification
2. Win AFCON
3. World Cup Quarter Final
4. Win CHAN 2025

Which would you choose and why?

The video is quite short, but that goal from outside the box and his deft touches gave me clues the kind of player he was.
He uses left and right comfortably as well

Unfortunately we don't have the defense and midfield for third place finish,our attack is good but other departments is not.

AFCON trophy is the more realistic target.

All the females teams wey NFF dey treat bad nah igboman dey coach dem ? The only reason i think Amuneke is not getting the job is because of his track record and most of the time he's always jobless , if Amuneke can take any African team to CAF champions League final or semis or quarter there's no way he won't get the Job

Stephen Keshi and Christian Chukwu must be Yoruba then. How many indigenous coaches have we even had in the past 20 years to justify being this cynical?

Nigeria is not a giant sha. I agree with that one.

Dont mind them. We failed to qualify for 2012, 2015 and 2017 AFCON under indigenous coaches. Now, they are promoting them again, not that they are doing anything spectacular presently.
