    Adepoju: Eguavoen Will Turn Around Eagles’ Fortune At AFCON 2021

    Austin AkhilomenBy Austin AkhilomenDecember 14, 2021Updated:December 14, 202181 Comments1 Min Read
    Mutiu Adepoju

    Former Nigerian midfielder, Mutiu Adepoju has backed the newly appointed Super Eagles interim coach, Austine Eguavoen to turn around the fortune of the team at the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations.


    Adepoju in an interview with NAN, stated that the timing of the sack of Genort Rohr with just few weeks to the commencement of the bi-annual tournament won’t affect the progress of the team.


    The midfield maestro, during his hay days however said he was confident that Eguavoen would bring his experience to bare in the team.


    “ Eguavoen is the Technical Director of the NFF, so, he is an insider and had been with the team long before now.


    “ He has the experience and am sure he knows how to utilise the talents in the team for a great result.”

      If he likes let him turn it upside down, we don’t care. But please somebody that is very close to him should tell him to leave our experienced legs alone. Talking about Musa, Ighalo, coupled with Victor Moses. Thank you!

      Rohr is gone. I think it’s time to support CEREZO especially as it involves SE.

      Mutiu Adepoju was 33yrs when he last appeared at African cup of nation2002. I don’t think Odion, Musa and Moses are up to 33yrs old. Anyway, what I do know as a Super Eagles fan and a one time member of the fans club, our Coach, Coach Austine Eguavoen who we used to call Egu defense would need experience hands to prosecute the mission before him. Thank God he has at least some experienced players who are promising to do Nigeria proud in cameroon. This will be a good addition to the young boys.
      He must continue to look into that direction and avoid noise makers as much as possible. It’s not even all of them that want him to succeed anyway.

      One good thing going for the Super Eagles Head Coach, Eguavoen is his total acceptance by Nigerians. And that Nigeria is blessed with a whole lot of football enthusiastics who are already adding their voices on how the SE Coach should field players, select this, select that segment of SE support group. The truth is, it must be Nigeria first and since we have our own on the seat, fate demands he has our support. This is a good development and one of the aims of a forum like this. Ok I will suggest a sweeping line up for SE coaching crew.

      Goal tender: Akpeyi

      Defenders:
      Ekong, Balogun, Awanziem, Aina

      MD: Nwakali, Ndidi, Iwobi

      V. Moses as a roving utility player, coming from flanks and MD.

      Supporting striker: Odion
      Top Striker: Osimhen or Desser

      SE Bench:
      Ahmed Musa
      Dennis
      Chukwueze
      Ebuehi
      Ejuke
      Desser if Osimhen is fit.
      Collins paderborn

      Then:

      The PHARAOHS of Egypt

          Okoye kó Oloye ní. Why? Okoye is jittery in goal, rather we will have Adeleye at the post. Didn’t you see how okoye caused us tension in the match against Cape verdeans?

        @Haruna Abba, Coach Egu is first of all preparing the SE for Afcon, World cup will come later. I am also of the opinion that Ahmed Musa should sub Victor Moses in 2nd half. God bless Nigeria.

        The hate isbyou who thinks upside down with your anus rather than brain. Mutiu at 33 was playing La Liga with Reql Sociedad. Please where is your 32 years old Ighalo playing his football?? Ode. Expected you to join your co confused travelers in following your tin god to his next coaching job. Dont know why no club pr country is bidding for him yet.

        You guys know better than everybody na. Did you read PINNICK’s interview? Go read and borrow yourself brain.

        Thank God your clueless Rohr is gone otherwise MUSA in Turkey will start ahead of Lukman or Dennis in Epl. A retired Saudi based Ighalo would have taken spot meant for one of DESSERS or AWONIYI. Moses Simon would have started ahead of Aina. Collins preferred to Sanusi. Onuachu starting ahead of Awoniyi.

          What’s so special abt Pinnicks interview? That he gave the coach all the support he needed. Imagine ur current boss owing u for 8 months and claiming that he’s been giving u all support. And mind you, Adepoju was on the periphery at Salamanca and a Turkish club around that time. I’m not even sure he was still I’m the SE at 33 in 2003.

          • Mahmud Shuaib on December 15, 2021 12:07 am

            If you are owed for 8 months and stick around that job, you must be a rhief. Must be cutting corners to survive otherwise you will throw in the towel.

            Keshi was owed for months. He won Afcon and played second round at the WC.

            Late Amodu is still being owed even in death. He qualified for two WCs.

            Salamanca in Soanish second division and Turkey league are both far ahead and competitive than Saudi league. Pls look for another alibi for your Ighalo.

      Who keeps for us doesn’t really matter as long as we have a “very very good” back four then the keeper can be as good as just relaxing on his goal post and drinking zobo… Except when it comes to penalties..

      So, does that means they don’t have any plan in hand before sacking Rohr?.

      When you look at these Nigerian coaches you can’t but just laugh, after Keshi, non of them understand jack, it’s not about sitting on the bench and shouting, well nothing is surprising though, it’s NFF so what do you expect. We have all the units in the football federation, task force, medical, technical, administrative etc but they have one thing in common “incompetence “ they just give them name so they can create their payslips under a department, they know nothing.
      Before ,you even make it public to sack a coach you will already have an idea of replacement, and when you made the decision to sack that’s it, no beating around, Rohr sacking has been in the news for week now, and I’m sure the interim coach will oversee AFCON, and then maybe someone else will come in for WC playoff. Any new coach will need time to acclimatise, so what is the best time to get to know your player if not now when you will have the opportunity of be in camp with them for 3-4 weeks and AFCON for another 2-3weeks if possible, and by the time the WC playoff is here you already have a clear idea.

      Or what opportunity would a new coach get between after AFCON and WC playoff? , at most he will get a shitty home and away friendly with a random country.

      What we have in Nigeria is not a football federation, what we have is a “Joke”

        I’d like to wish Gernot Rohr all the best for his future endeavors… A good man with a good heart, more patriotic than these administrators and ex-cricket internationals who themselves are very unpatriotic citizens…

        I’d like to wish Cerezo all the best of luck he’ll need to succeed on this assignment cos he has always been a good coach but was unlucky on previous occasions such as the 2012 Olympics qualifiers. Where clubs refused to release his core players…

        By and large his tactics, team play and team discipline were very good… So please no one should cast aspersions on his personality because he isn’t your favorite for the job.

      From all the comments I have read here since yesterday it’s so glaring that most Rohr haters are now regretting his sack and eventual replacement by Cerezo. Just like some of us on this forum have always believed that sacking Rohr was not the issue but getting a suitable replacement is, that has come to play now. Carlos Alberto Pereira (USA 94 World cup winning coach with Brazil) when sacked by Saudi Arabia after crashing out in the first round of France 98 world cup, said and I quote, ‘There are 2 kinds of coaches in the world, those that have been fired and those that will be fired’. So coaches come and go. Rohr has gone, but the NFF is finding it difficult to replace him. Before he came in 2016 same way we found I’m difficult to get a stable coach. Some were confirmed as coach, only to later abscond when they saw the rot in the glass house. We really need to put our house in order. Goodluck to Cerezo and the boys.

      One of the main reasons Rohr is no longer the coach is because he refused to use the Eagles as a platform to market NPFL players to Foreign teams,especially European teams. He was seen by NFF and the agents as standing‍♂️in their way and preventing them from using the national team to showcase the players to the world . Nigeria’s best players are all in Europe and any player picked from NPFL does not merit the inclusion to the team. Players who are not actually playing on a weekly basis are not fit to be in the national team. It is a double negative if you are an NPFL player who has been on brake for God knows how long to be included in a team heading to the Nation’s cup in a couple of weeks. That’s planning for disaster and calamity to come upon Nigeria.

      NFF got their stooge and NPFL player names will be popping up from lift, right and center because those agents together with NFF will determine who gets invited,who gets to play as well as who gets to be substituted in a match. This is really going to be a very rough and bumpy ride.

      After their 7 nil whitewash at the Etihad, rumour has it that Bielsa might be on his way out, and Leeds are looking at Gernot Rohr as a possible replacement.
      April fool has come 4 months early. Hehehehe!
      But seriously, the Leeds defensive performance today illustrates how difficult and unpredictable football is, especially against a quality opponent.
      Diego Llorente, a starting center back for the Spanish national team, had a nightmare, a stinker of a game today. The Leeds defense was completely overwhelmed by Man City attacking forays, and Llorente was one of the biggest culprits, making error after error.
      The first goal by Foden should have been cleared by Dallas, who was right there on the goal line, but Dallas swung his foot and missed, bizarrely slicing the ball into his own net! The look on Bielsa’s face as he crouched down at the touchline in his usual manner was – OH BOY, WE ARE IN TROUBLE!
      And he was right! By the 78th minute, Man City had added another half dozen goals to complete a 7 nil rout.
      I hope I don’t come across as being biased towards Ekong, as I do believe he has been poor of recent, but when I see performances of his fellow premier league defenders, I think we need to cut him some slack. Yes, criticize him, but recognize that he’s not that bad, compared to other defenders in the premier league.
      Llorente’s performance today makes Ekong look like Virgil Van Dyke.
      His center back partner, Luke Ayling, a make shift center back, didn’t fare any better. They both posted performances that will probably force Bielsa to approach the Leeds board for funds to shop for a proper center back in January.
      As poor as Ekong has been, I can confidently say Leeds would have fared much, much better if Ekong had been on duty for them today. In fact, Bielsa would be well advised to inquire about Ekong’s availability, if Ranieri no longer wants him!

          I may be unhappy with Rohr of late, but the fact remains that he did a fantastic job from 2016 to 2019. For the performance slump, I reserve the lion share of the blame for NFF ONIGBESE.

And so it should not be used to judge a player..

      And Ighalo is our golden boot winner 2019 Afcon. What is bad in needing his wealth of experience again even if it means for the last time???

You must be able to have something to give on your own. It is called (individual magic moment) without the back four… But however, what I mean literally then was we don’t have goal keeping issues with Maduka Okoye involved if only our (defensive) back four is very very good… But as it stands now, the problem has gone beyond that cos you guys decided to sack the only person that can fix all those issues.

      Monkey post… I read most of your comments and laugh

      U need a reliable goal keeper! Yes a good defense will make the keeper look good but then there are instances where classy saves will be needed to get the team out of trouble. Chelsea’s defense is good but Edouard Mendy still make world class saves in matches, that’s what they call A TEAM, making up for each others mistakes, a cohesive unit.

      Okoye is still not reliable and it’s the truth but he has prospects.

      For people comparing Musa and Ighalo to a 33 years old who represented us in a particular AFCON, you lot should listen up, it’s not about age , it’s about the quality of what you can offer! Is that too hard too understand?? If you’re even young as a player and you got nothing much to offer a team, it’s reasonable to represent such young player with an old player that still got qualities to offer. Look at Muller or Bayern…but you’re here picking Ighalo over young and agile strikers scoring goals in competitive leagues

      And for people waiting for the failure of Eguavon, shame on you people and that questions your loyalty. We’ve got to support this man and even if u choose not to support him, that got nothing on him, he’s to prove himself with results. Many didn’t like Tuchel at the start, his result won them over .

      NFF, pls and pls, let these handlers handle their jobs. It’s a shame we don’t trust u guys to do that.

If we had a dearth of strikers, i will understand the need to recall ighalo but you have younger, ruthless, faster strikers playing in the toughest leagues in the world and some think it is Ighalo that should be picked ahead of these strikers. Someone said Ighalo is JUST 32 but I am sure his official age is a lot older than that. He could barely run against cape Verde. Some people are just illogical in their thought process but rather sentimental. In their minds, Ighalo was the highest goal scorer at the last afcon and therefore he must be the best we have. It was reported that someone in NFF thought it wise to offer him the no. 9 jersey. That proposed offer defies logic but can only be sentimental.some people are just wired this way.

      I guess Akpoguma too has joined the NO TALENT CLUB, abi?
      At this rate, there will be no defenders left good enough to play for us at the upcoming Afcon. Loooool!

      I’d like to wish Gernot Rohr all the best for his future endeavors… A good man with a good heart, more patriotic than these administrators and ex-cricket internationals who themselves are very unpatriotic citizens…

      I’d like to wish Cerezo all the best of luck he’ll need to succeed on this assignment cos he has always been a good coach but was unlucky on previous occasions such as the 2012 Olympics qualifiers. Where clubs refused to release his core players…

      By and large his tactics, team play and team discipline were very good… So please no one should cast aspersions on his personality because he isn’t your favorite for the job.

          @patrator thanks bro… It’s imperative we make certain corrections and set the record straight as most fans have short memories of events past while some will never see something good from their non favorite players and Coaches…while they reverse is the case with their favorites

      The Money the ministero and NFF used in settling Rohr should have been used to organize and Host an 8-nation WAFU tournée for our super eagles when they open camp… But nooo they’re bereft of positive ideas because they becloud their sense of reasoning with hatred, nepotism and bigotry

      @Patrator It was not just goal keeper…He was trying to build a team that will dominate Africa and the world for decades…But you guys were so impatient…But however, if you think is easy to build a national “team” that is complete in all areas, why don’t you tell your “our own” to do it from now till January….
