Nice interception borne outta brilliant anticipation to stop a goal bound pass. Awaziem doing good

Kano Pillars’ Head Coach, Ibrahim Musa says he is dismayed by Coach Imama Amapakabo’s description of Nigeria-based players and coaches as not teachable. He challenged the national U-23 team coach to organise a course on basics of football, with emphasis on tactics and formation. Amapakabo, who currently handles both the U-23 and the CHAN Eagles, in a recent report published by footballlive.ng, said home-based players find it difficult to interpret tactics and formation. He also accused local coaches of lacking tactics and formation, saying they cannot give what they don’t know. Speaking to The Guardian yesterday, Musa said Amapakabo had the right to his opinion, adding, however, that the former Enugu Rangers coach also fell in the category of Nigerian coaches. “Is Amapakabo not a coach in Nigeria? Well, he is only expressing his opinion. Some players were invited to the CHAN Eagles and no player from the Kano Pillars made it to the team. And this is a club that came second in the league last season and even won the FA Cup. “Indicting the local coaches publicly is not a good thing, especially when the coach is also based in Nigeria. This is more so when others are blaming us for the current state of the national teams.” He said Amapakabo should have been more discreet in his criticism if he noticed things wrong with the system. “If there were lapses he has noticed about the home-based players and coaches, he is supposed to advice us since he wants to correct them. Now because he lost 1-4 to Togo, he has suddenly remembered that Nigerian coaches and players lack tactics and formation,” he said. Musa, who is in Ijebu Ode, Ogun State for a pre-season tournament with his team, added that Amapakabo should complete his work against Togo and put up a course for the players and coaches on what he thinks we lack as a way forward. “It is good to hear that he knows what we don’t know. So, he should come and impact in us what tactics and formation are, as soon as he finishes the job of qualifying for the CHAN tournament. “As a way forward for the players based in Nigeria to be part of the Super Eagles, I think whoever that is given responsibility to handle the national team should start looking inwards by going round the country and seeing the players for himself rather than depending on agents,” he stated.
The last paragraph sha got me thinking

I'm glad this discussion is out in the open

i should be telling you this instead

Nsogbu adighi

If u aint watching this Awaziem/Omeruo central defensive partnership, then, u missing oo. So far, they have great understanding of each other. Awaziem pushes forward to add extra body in the midfield, as he passes better while Omeruo mops up behind

abi weren't you the one blaming rohr a fortnight ago for not capping eze before he got an invite to the english u20 team? ezigbo mmadu

I was really shocked at Imama's post about Nigerian coaches in particular. All because he lost to Togo.... So the Togolese coaches are better than Nigerian coaches. What a scam of a coach.

I am just afraid of our chances at the CAF U23.

Osimhen scores!!

Osimhen scores!!!

wooooooooow! baby drogba!

Osimhen scores!!

Osibobo is on the scoresheet again.... Lille fans will be like Pepe? Pepe who??

Osimhen always making me happy

Dude might get 20 goals at worst

The guy is already becoming constitent ooo

Always playing for 90 minutes ,1 goal and 1 assist is not bad for today ,this should be a man of the match performance

Osimeh scoring @ home is constant k

Yea it is his call, so stop blaming the NFF. NFF make these players available while it is the sole responsibility of Rohr to call them up.

Mothiba, the most tucked player in football in on the other side

Victor Osimehn scores

Awaziem is so far the best, of the 3 Leganes centre backs, with a whoscored.com rating of 7. 00

Expect another brace, or even a hat trick from Osimhen today.

Watch this space

mind you i never blamed the nff but a section in the football house which is the technical committee who are hell bent on having a good number of local based players in the current eagles set up but rohr resisted that. i no been know you as person wey dey quote others out of context oooooo

Agreed with brace

Still observing the hat trick

its likely with the rate he is scoring. even if he hits 15 goals in his debut season that will be awesome as well

Modified: Sorry I was wrong, u did say NFF tech committee

Yeah bro ,I said 15 games at worst when he scored his first 3 goals ,but now I am beginning to change my mouth ,6 goals in 7 Ligue 1 games already , that's so impressive

His goal ratio has been the same with Neymar,this is so promising ,and I hope he continues

Please, don't just copy and paste, arrange what you posted so that people can read clearly.

Immama, Oya o, Musa has challenged you. Put your money where your mouth is o since you know tactics and formation while your other colleagues don't.

You must not fail to organize a seminar for your fellow coaches so that you can teach them what they lack.

somehow:
But none of the northern countries in Africa use sharia as their country's law or am I wrong?

You're wrong. Almost all of them do, to various degree.
