NFF and Pinnick over to una to do whatever you want with Peseiro. We no want.
We can all See where things works without sentiments. This same coach has won them throphy in the past but check out his last 3 games at the AFCON… Good one to the Ghana FA, let the right things be done. GrandPa Rohr worshipers should take several back sits nd go join him in Germany if they so please.
He didn’t win anything but did very well for them. This just to show that nothing last forever in football. This was the coach who put Ghana football on world map in 2010 when he led them to silver in Afcons and qualified them for world cup for the first time and led them to quarter final before loosing controversially to Uruguay remember Suarez drama then? This was a feet only achieved by Cameroon and I think Senegal in Africa. He was reappointed last year September after a non overwhelming start to WCQ with their local coach and immediately turned things around qualifying them for playoff. His appointment look like that of our Eguavon now but see how it ends unbelievable. He still remains the best coach Ghana ever had in fact ever since he left after 2010 world cup Ghana football has been nosediving.. Coaches job is like that at time he started well with same players but the unfortunate things happened and it is what it is so criticise Rohr less it is one of those things in football.
Give Eguaevon the job. Pay him same u pay raj
Well said. Short thinkers fans to be coach don’t think that way.
Lol which trophy? Lol
Africans should encourage and develop their local coaches
All you bed wetting Rohr Haters continue to urinate ogogoro from Una blokos. See the tragedy Una bring upon Una selve. I hear say Rohr wan coach Ghana. If we meet them for world cup playoffs, Nigeria go become Rohr’s rags. If we know what is good for us, we will demand that the NFF kick Eguavoen out for Rohr’s return without delay. Instead of vomiting raw sewage, use your mouths for useful thing for once. Yeye dey smell.
Who be this? Kikikikikiikikikikikikikikkikikikikikikikikiki follow your white mechanic to Seychelles when they appoint him. Nigeria is way above his standard
Are you sure you are not under the influence of a hard drug, we sacked rhor Because he doesn’t show clear tactics and now our team is better even now the best in Africa you are now saying rubbish. Nobody hates rhor but am sure you have an issue with this rhor. Did rhor give you scholarship or what cause this is something else
You just dey seek attention. Even if you give Rohr Zidane, Messi, C. Ronaldo, Pirlo, Gerrard, Nesta, Baresi, Roberto Carlos, Thuram, Ronaldo and Buffon, Super Eagles will still beat them. You know why? He’ll play them out of positions!
What a good decision in the right direction.
I don’t really understand you.Is it that you don’t like good things for us and you want to see us looking sad when the national team is playing or you are a pessimist?
You are clearing seeing great progress from the time of Rohr and now,yet you want Rohr back.It beats my imagination.
I received the news with great pleasure and commended the Ghana Football Association for its decision. It’s high time other African countries followed suit.
All the best to the Ghana Black Stars. I hope their next coach will be Appiah, Koufour, Kwaku, Kwesi or Koffi. Good luck.
I just hope we will learn lesson from this man and that of Algeria coach. All the talk of Belmadi’s boys has suddenly disappeared. Those who are praising Eguavon to high heaven should take note no coach is a Messiah today you are on point tomorrow……hmmmmnn Ask Benitez, Ranieri, Wenger, Rajevac etc how far..
Why is nobody talking about the world cup draw for Africa holding today..every where is calm about the draw
Ghana suddenly realized that their white messiah was human afterall… Lol.
Maybe now they will encourage themselves to “fail with their own” rather… Ghana exiting a competition with a single point… unheard of!
Africans should learn to put their house in order… fashion out a merit System devoid of sentiments atleast to 95% and learn to set standards and minimum markers to their targets and lastly make it impossible for biases and needless sentiments… Sit back and watch how good their fortunes will turn!
hahahahahaha i know Ghanaw will sack there coach next is Algeria coach
It’s Ghana vs Nigeria for WC Qualifier, may Nigeria triumph
Based on the out come of the first three matches played by the Nigerian team, it is clear that that the team has improved in terms of results and style of play. However we have to acknowledge that the team did not just get to the competition by chance. The former coach was responsible for their qualification for the current stage of the World Cup ticket as well as AFCON. We must not get carried away by the current results as the ultimate prize of AFCON is the cup and not the round of 16.The last time Eguavoen managed the team his best result was a third place which is not equivalent to the ultimate price. As a country, we have experienced success with both foreign and local coaches. What is required from NFF is to draw up “SMART” contracts that forms the basis for objective evaluation of their performance irrespective of who we hire.We cannot complain about playing style of our national teams or inconsistent results if our expectations are not reflected in the contracts we sign with coaches. Finally we still have very important matches ahead and cannot afford all the distractions on who is better especially when a new coach has also been hired. We can have a better conversation if the current coach delivers the AFCON cup. Until then let us all support the current coach to deliver the cup.
