Former Nigeria international, Sunday Oliseh, has vowed never to coach the Super Eagles again, even if a second opportunity comes his way.
Oliseh, 45, was Eagles head coach between 2015 and 2016, before quitting unceremoniously.
Speaking in an Instagram live video chat with The Punch. The former Juventus, Ajax and Borussia Dortmund star said:“No, I don’t have the intention of ever coaching the (Super) Eagles again,” he said.

“I loved working with the boys, I love coaching my country, but the atmosphere around it was no longer healthy.
“I didn’t want the job anymore. Health-wise I was not feeling too good; secondly, we were owed salaries. I was spending money on my health and on my team. I just couldn’t die on the job.
“Truth is, we have a foreign coach now and from what I heard and know, he is being paid four times the wages Stephen Keshi and I were paid and these are two players (himself and Keshi) who won trophies for Nigeria.
“I’ve never heard Gernot Rohr complain about wages. Keshi, while he was coaching, was always complaining, when I was coaching for four months, I was unpaid, for six months my assistants were unpaid, so I had to leave the job; we were also being frustrated.”
Oliseh stated that he had plans to take the Eagles to the next level before he decided to resign.
“I had good plans for the team,” the 1994 AFCON and 1996 Atlanta Olympics gold medal winner said.
“You will notice that at a time I brought in (Wilfred) Ndidi, Alex Iwobi, Kelechi Iheanacho, young players who are dominating now. I brought in a world-class goalkeeper (Carl Ikeme) because I felt the old breed were ready to leave.
“The same philosophy I used while with the Eagles was the same philosophy France used at the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
“Sometimes you ask yourself questions about Nigeria. You won laurels for the country as a player, you’re doing well as a coach, you were about qualifying for the World Cup and you’re unpaid for four months.”
As Eagles Coach, Oliseh qualified Nigeria to the CHAN tournament in Rwanda, qualified the country to the group phase of the 2018 world cup Qualifiers.
In his first game as coach of the Eagles in an AFCON qualifier he managed an away draw against Tanzania.
Oliseh last managed Dutch side, Fortuna Sittard after he was appointed in 2016.
But he was fired on 14 February 2018, and the former Super Eagles captain later claimed that the reason he was disengaged was because he refused to participate in illegal activities at the club.

Oliseh definitely for now is our best local coach. A country that is out to do the right thing, should have put the past behind and get Oliseh to assist Gernot Rohr, whereby he Oliseh would have had the chance to learn man/situation management better under Rohr. People keep saying Oliseh ran away, but I ask, are these same people oblivious of how things work in nigeria? Rohr is succeeding today, one because he is good n has loads of experience working in Africa n again he is a foreigner, whereby he’s got a another decent choice of returning home (Germany/France). That alone eases the pressure. But for Oliseh, saddly he doesn’t have that choice. Also NFF, before now stood solidly behind Rohr which wasn’t the case with Oliseh. We should try understand people’s challenges thoroughly before condemning them. All said, Rohr must be allowed to continue towards next World Cup.
Let’s not forget easily how things were before and after rohr took charge. Pls, carefully go through the threads inserted to appreciate what rohr has done and where he is taking us to in the nearest future. At the time, Mr ex cricket international cum csn columnist and others totally lost his voice and suddenly found it under rohr. Even,bonfere Jo was in hiding bcs the state of our team at the time was just bad and hopeless. Now , that rohr has tinkered the team to a formidable force to reckon with in world foodball, everyone now believes he can coach again.

Sunday Oliseh resigns as Super Eagles coach
By Wires
Sunday Oliseh has resigned as Head Coach of the Nigerian football national team, the Super Eagles, just over seven months after he was appointed.
Oliseh, who announced his resignation on Twitter, said he took the decision due to the inability of the Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, to honour the terms of his contract.
“Due to contract violations, lack of support, unpaid wages, benefits to my players, assistant coaches and myself, I resign as Super Eagles Chief Coach,” he tweeted.
In a preceding tweet before announcing his resignation, Oliseh thanked Nigerians for the opportunity to serve as coach of the national team
“I feel fortunate, blessed and eternally grateful for having the honour to play, captain and coach this great nation of ours, Nigeria.”
Oliseh, whose appointment was made with much fanfare by the NFF, soon started having problems with the executives of the federation over remuneration, match tactics and results.
His complaint about being owed was not well received by the NFF, which rather threatened to sanction him.
He also had challenges managing the players. An altercation between the coach and the team’s former captain and the country’s most capped goalkeeper, Vincent Enyeama, led to the goalie’s premature resignation from the team last October.
Apparently, the last straw for Oliseh was the woeful outing of the Super Eagles at the CHAN competition in Rwanda, where the team was eliminated in the first round.
Following widespread criticisms that greeted the team’s elimination, a Youtube video soon surfaced in which Oliseh lambasted his critics, referring to them as “insane”.
On Thursday, the NFF directed Oliseh to henceforth report to former coach and the federation’s technical director, Amodu Shuaibu.
The NFF is yet to respond his resignation.

Its such a pity that NFF pays another foreigner more than they would do a Nigerian
Edoman, don’t allow this guy, Oliseh to swindle you and some other fans, let me enumerate his points one by one
1. He said that Rohr was paid 4 times his wages, that’s a big lie, Oliseh take home salary was 25k dollars, (tax free) while Keshi was given 30k dollars, Rohr started with us with 30k dollars that was later increased to 50k, but he is paying 4 assistant from his salary, so who is earning higher between him and Oliseh, it’s obvious Oliseh earns better.
2. Oliseh said he was been owed, pls which Nigerian coaches has never been owed salaries before? Just last year, Rohr cried out that’s he is been owe about 4months salaries.. That’s never a new trend in Nigeria football.
3. He said he was the one paying for his health treatment,his contract condition includes health care insurance, so what is he saying, who is supposed to pay for his treatment? Won’t he claim every kobo from the insurance? Nonsense!
4. He said he discovered Ndidi, Kel etc, and brings them to the national team, what would Amuneke that exhumed those raw talents say? Or what of Rohr that’s have brings the likes of Ola Aina, Balogun, Collins, Oshimen, Chukueze, Dennis, Kalu, Josh Maja, Aribo, Sam Okoye, Uzoho, Awaziem, and lately cyril Dessers, and this Bundesliga guy. Presently, Seyi Ojo, Bobby Adekanye of Lazio, and many more are working on switch of nationality.
5. He claims he brought world class goalkeeper, Carl Ikeme, but he chased arguably our best goalkeeper out of the team a case of throwing the baby with the bath water, and cause commotion and confusion in the team, he stripped mikel of captaincy for no just reason and gave it to Ahmed Musa.
Finally, Oliseh is not the kind of man that can manage any team, too proud pompous and arrogant, he led the mafia that derailed the work of Coach Amodu Shuaibu in 2002 nations cup, which led to total disbandment of SE then, after Amodu toiled hard to qualify us for the Korea Japan world cup, something Mr Bonfrere Jo can’t do and lead to the sacking of Amodu, Leading to Onigbinde putting together the most useless set of Eagles then, with the likes of Bartholomew Ogbeche. From a reliable source also, Oliseh was part of the players that causes unrest in the SE camp in 1998 world cup in France.
Mr Oliseh, go else where and apply for Job, where they will give you excellent condition of service. We will support you.
Very well said, Ola.
Is Oliseh saying all these for real…???
“…I’ve never heard Gernot Rohr complain about wages…”
When Rohr has been queried several times for going to the press over such issues…??? In 2019 alone he was owed 4 months before AFCON and 3 months after AFCON. In 2018 he was owed 5 months. In 2017 he was owed 3 months twice. These things are well documented are are available on the internet for heaven’s sake. Anybody should just go to Google and type “Rohr owed salaries” it will give you millions of results….you will even get tired of reading.
“….I didn’t want the job anymore. Health-wise I was not feeling too good; secondly, we were owed salaries…”
After just 7 months you didn’t want the job anymore….but Rohr has been facing these same problems too but he has never for once abandoned this team…only recently he just had another surgery…to show he also isn’t also always 100% in good health.
“…Truth is, we have a foreign coach now and from what I heard and know, he is being paid four times the wages Stephen Keshi and I were paid…”
Hahahaha….as if we don’t have internet to check….Oliseh’s contract was N60m per annum (that was in the region of $30k per month as at then. He was even bought a car worth 4m b4 the signing of the contract), Keshi was earning same or in that region. Rohr started with same…but got an upward review to about $50k (from which he has to pay his personal assistants after nff stopped paying them after the WC) after meeting one of the targets as set in his contract. Everyone got what he negotiated in his contract. Why the complaints…? How is $50k four times $30k
“….Sometimes you ask yourself questions about Nigeria… you’re doing well as a coach, you were about qualifying for the World Cup and you’re unpaid for four months….”
Oga Oliseh….you weren’t even about qualifing for AFCON….the world cup draws had not been made sef. You bolted when we had 2 crucial back to back winner takes all AFCON qualifiers with Egypt ahead of us.
Do people really have to tell white lies like these…???
Mr., you attacked my post about Oliseh not getting up to half of what Rohr is being offered. You came up with a wrong figure and made me look like a liar publicly.
I do not need your apology because your ego won’t let you.
Your average coach Mr. Rohr has not done anything special. He is not better than Oliseh.
I know you may want to argue that Rohr took us to a blah blah ranking, let me remind you Amodu (RIP) took us to the best ranking and qualified us for 2 world cups when your foreign coaches left.
Keshi (RIP) qualified Togo for their first and only world cup till date, won the nations cup and equaled our w’cup record.
I hope your rebuttal will be based on fact and not insults.
No nation has won the w’cup with a foreign coach!!
Oya if it pain you so badly go and wake your Amodu and Keshi from their graves na.
If the rest were good why did they drag us to 70th position in the world and not qualify for common AFCON 3 out of 4 times…???
For Oliseh and his fellow bunch of lairs….here’s something for you all to chew.

Oliseh was earning N5m per month. Convert that to dollars using the rate at that time and you will get close to the same $30,000 Rohr started with in 2016. Pls how is that 4 times (pls someone should teach me mathematics o. Bcos it seems the mathematics I learnt in may days has changed in 2020) even now that Rohr is being paid $50,000…it’s still not times 4. Or am I missing something…? Oliseh’s own pay was for him alone o. His Belgian assistant had his own separate paid contract with NFF of about N4m per month (around $20,000) back then o.

Oliseh has gotten criticism from several quarters over his decision to stay in Belgium and manage the Super Eagles.
Speaking at a session at the ongoing Social Media Week in Lagos, Oliseh said he does not own any house in Nigeria and the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF)has not provided any one for him.

“I want to stay in Nigeria but I don’t have funds to rent a house there,” Oliseh said.
“I don’t have an apartment in Nigeria and I pay rent from my own pocket anytime I am in the country.”
Oliseh also revealed that he had an agreement with the NFF that he would not stay in the country and it is stipulated in his contract.
“We have already signed and agreed all these in the contract,” he added.
“I cannot coach from Nigeria because most of my players are based abroad,” he said.

Oliseh was also asked how he can discover young talent in Nigeria and monitor his players in the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL).
“It is not the job of super eagles coach to discover youth talent,” Oliseh said.
“I only manage at the very top level and I my assistant goes around to monitor our players in the NPFL, that was what I and the NFF agreed.”

And later, some bloody ignoramuses will come here telling us fat lies that Rohr is given better treatment…. he’s earning times 4 of what our local coaches earned…he’s working from Europe…he’s not discovering “rough diamonds” from the local league (rough diamonds that never improve LMAO. Oboabona played AFCON, Confed Cup, World Cup – his game never improved one bit – From Rizespor to Saudi Arabia)
Oliseh too is here lieing to us as if we are his babies….I discovered Carl Ikeme…Fat Lie…. Onigbinde was the first coach to invite Ikeme to the National team in 2002 alongside Enyeama, Ejide, Ejiogu, Etafia and Shorunm. He was also invited to the 2008 AFCON camp by Vogts and the 2010 WC camp by Lagerback, but he fell sick and got injured respectively and couldn’t make the final squads on those occasions too. He only finally debuted under Oliseh because the 1st choice Enyeama was kicked out of camp as they were preparing in Belgium. Oliseh can only claim he gave him his debut (which was more rather circumstancial than premeditated)….not that he discovered him. Same way he’s claiming he discovered Ndidi and Iwobi and Iheanacho…..Fat lies. So what should Manu Garba say…???? If we aren’t careful Oliseh could even claim he gave birth to them…LMAO
Lieing to us he was about qualifying for world cup….which world cup..? As at when he abandoned the team…the world cup draws had not even be made….and we weren’t even close to qualifying for afcon yet.
I don’t know how people can be so shameless in this age and time and descend so low as to be telling lies….for what…???
This life is all about opportunities. Some people got theirs, mismanaged it, abandoned the team after just 7 months, left us in deep crises with a double header against Egypt ahead and ran away….some got theirs twice and couldn’t qualify us for ordinary AFCON….some got theirs, took is from No 70 position in the world, qualified from an extremely tough WC group blindfolded and unbeaten, 4 mins from WC R16, Qualified us again blindfolded for the same AFCON we had missed 3 of the previous 4 editions, despite loosing our first match, lost the semifinals of a 24 team AFCON (equivalent of the final of a 16 team AFCON) in the last second of the 94th, won 5 matches (unprecedented in the history of Nigeria’s participation at afcon) and a bronze with the youngest team at the tournament….yet people who ran away after 7 months are opening their wide mouths yen yen yen yen yen to talk anyhow to someone who has endured same treatment for 4 years!
It is not that we are sitting pretry as 31st position in the world moving higher and higher and getting better and better and stronger and stronger that they realize he is technically and tactically deficient.
Evil people…!!!
I seriously weep for this my country Nigeria with not only unfortunate leaders in the helms of affairs but also unfortunate set of bad , ungodly people and lazy youths whose voices these misfits NFF always relies on to destroy our greatest exploits in the football coaching world to such extent causes their untimely death. . Today the 2 of our most accomplished coaches that set national records ( Keshi the first S/E gold winning Capt to win Afcon as a captain & as a coach , only 1 person in the entire continent of Africa that shared this honour, the first to brake and set record with the tiny Togo with a population of not up to a state in Nigeria, setting a record of qualifying for WC, a record that has never been achieved by any coach in the world black or white ever since anyone was born in Togo their president, football officials inclusive let alone the players back to his home country to set a record that no any local coach ever achieved and also qualified for WC and reached second round which was only achieved by Westerhof when eagles was at his best and at the end frustrated, owed backlog salary and then rewarded with sack which later leads to his untimely death ! ! While oga Rohr that celebrated 3rd place in Afcon and qualified for W/C which our local coaches have made it Nigeria’s birthright , shamefully crashed out in the first round only to be rewarded with almost double salary increment!! Amodu Set record of being the first local coach and second coach ever white or black to qualify S/E for WC even 2 times but as usual rather than reward , it was frustration , backlog of unpaid salary and then SACK !! Which lead to his untimely death !)
Tell me , if Oliseh a highly principled guy did not resign then without looking back in the mist of unpaid salary, frustration , 6 months assistants unpaid salaries, using his personal to sustain his players, unpaid assistants , wouldn’t he have joined Late Keshi & Amodu in their graves by now ?
Keshi resigned after winning Afcon cup in the mist of frustration, unpaid salary but unfortunately looked back with the intervention of presidency who could not sack NFF as NFF always blackmailed minister or presidency any attempt to sanitize the most corrupt government agency ever in Nigeria; at the end Keshi health and by extension life was made sacrificial lamb together with compatriot Amodu who always come to the rescues when their white business partners messed up , I doubt if any of them have being paid their owed salary through their families in their graves. Today , the 2 heroes were not only forgotten by their country they sacrificed their lives for, not even ordinary remembrance by the NFF cult gang . Siasia , The brightest local coach whose his team is always delight to watch in his Brazilian brand of football, the only coach to ever reach final of Olympic Games football after Bonfere Jo and who did in possible by wining bronze medallist in Olympic football under the shameful embarrassment circumstances that Pep combined JM wouldn’t have won a single match , where he had to beg another country to help in buying flights for him and his players to be in Olympics just in the stadium before his team could be disqualified. Siasia who did not only shamed the football officials without salary and allowance to him and his players by not only beating the team coached by white coach but also was the only messiah that won any medal for Nigeria in that year Olympic. Today , that his unparalleled commitment for his nation Nigeria in the face of frustration by the NFF gang where he at many times at the mercy of governors and good people of Nigeria for sponsorship of his team and many times stranded and abandoned by his frustrating employer without unpaid salaries, his career is now in danger with unsubstantiated phantom bribery allegation which the almighty FIFA did not waste time jumping into fallacy conclusion without investigation in an offence purported to have been committed at the time the poor Siasia was not handling any national team , what a white man conspiracy !!! ( would anyone blame FIFA? for a coach whose employer has turned not only national beggar to finance his team but also international beggar who have to be rescued by a foreign country to buy ordinary flights tickets! ) . If Siasia had been wised enough to resign and never look back , may be he wouldn’t have learnt in bitter way. I just hope he will not end up the way of Keshi and Amodu. It is only in this country, we killed our own.
Now , tell me, if after reading this interview which was not a hidden to good soccer loving people of Nigeria would not have his head subjected for medical examinations (apology if that sounds too raw as it is not in my character) , if they believe our local coaches should not been given opportunity to work in their country with same good conditions of service and steady salary as Rohr was getting for almost 4years even from his comfort home in Germany.
These are the people that served Nigeria diligently with great commitment, I remember an ailing Capt Oliseh whose team was about to loose in a tournament, he defied medical team to trust himself in the pitch where he lead his team to victory, what a patriotic country man , the same man as a Coach had to be using his personal resource to finance his players and his assistants with backlog of unpaid salary, discovers world class goalkeeper Cal ikpeme less than a year (to call of the bluff of NFF agent of destabilization in the S/E Enyama as he did in the Siasia team , now that he has successfully dribbled himself into oblivion with his indiscipline ) , discovered world class player Ndidi,who is the bedrock of S/E today ; but oga Rohr cannot discover 1 dependable goalkeeper in 4 years ! , Amunike went to the tiny Tanzania broke 40 years old record , took players whose non were born when last Tanzania qualified for Afcon ,and was rewarded with SACK for not performing magic even with several months of unpaid salary ( who would give our local coaches respect outside when they were never treated well by their country) ; but Rohr was getting opposite treatment with shameful embarrassment record in the tournament he participated to such extent his employer could not help other than to recommend him for further training to the so called “ Technical Adviser).
Wicked , ungodly people and lazy youths would not want our local ex internationals to be given their chance because of the purported failure in the past under the hands of the cult gang NFF, yet they looked other way when Rohr ( the supposed expert coach ) who did not do anything extraordinary with Gabon with bellow average performance (42%) and F9 in his last two assignments (13% in Niger , 27% in Burkinafaso ) , a coach is as good as his last 3 assignments , everyone knows Rohr was not qualify as at the time he was employed with dismissal by his former employer for F9 records.
Let oga Rohr supporters tell us why our local coaches should be denied another chance in their own country on the account of the so called underachievement that were engineered by the NFF, when a foreign coach who had worst disaster records were given lifeline and yet you want our best hands dying untimely death .
What a negative minded people and self defeatist with inferiority complex of African mentality, would want us to turn an average coach to a messiah at the expense of our own .
Cameron & co with Nigeria went for a tournament where the two team that qualified for finals were coached by their local coaches ahead of the so called expatriate coaches with bogus salary yet you still want us to continue in that other . Are this country coursed or his people ?
If NFF cannot give us world class coach and preferred an average coach like Rohr , then it would not be bad idea , if they are replaced by the competent administrators from the foreign land .
@destar, Oooh pls stop advertising ur woeful ignoranre on a public domain, read a thread attached to my post and you’d see how things were before he ran away from the job. Of a truth, owing coaches no matter where they come from is very absurd but his performance was way below average with the eagles struggling to win matches. Pls, don’t behave as if u didn’t know what happened bcs he left us stranded in the middle of the sea and of course, those yabbing utter nonsense now against Mr rohr now (including the ex cricket international) all lost their voices even when he called the nff brass “insane people”! Its a pity Your posts are just so long and empty, filled with crap that don’t make a single sense. I’m beginning to think that omo9ja (even though he’s a psycho) is even better than you at that psycho level. U know say craze get level, so your own craze dey higher than him on on the pecking order but all na craze!
The same people (Rohr’s fans) who are singing his praises today will soon be the ones to criticise him when the time comes.
The only thing oga Rohr has that is working for him is just man management skills (he restored peace,togetherness to the team and also he is fair in his selection of players ) apart from that nothing else.
Tactically and technically Gernot Rohr is deficient or let me say he is average.
A coach is like a commander in the army, when a commander is timid he has already lost the battle and no need going to the battle field in first place.
Rohr is not that ambitious person, he always settle for less because (I wouldn’t say it’s humility) of his low ambition.
While I understand the need for him to continue because consistency is good but l personally isn’t expecting much from him until I start seeing some changes from him.
The Super Eagles deserves the best!

The last permanent Super Eagles coach, Sunday Oliseh was paid N5million monthly before he resigned in February 2016.
Before Oliseh, late Stephen Keshi was said to be on an N7m per month deal before he was sacked last year.

Keshi’s N7m as at them was worth around $35,000 per month o.
Whereas since after the world cup,Rohr has been left to pay his personal staff (about 5 of them) working for the team from his own pocket o….meaning out of his $50,000 he probably has to cough out at least $25,000 to be shared amongst all 5 of his staff. Is the reminder still times 4…??? Or is it Rohr that is to blame for the local coaches not being
intelligent enough to include milestones in their contracts where the NFF must increase their pay…???

Super Eagles coach speaks on why he does not stay in Nigeria

Tell your friends
Oliseh said he does not own any house in Nigeria and the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has not provided any one for him

Oliseh has gotten criticism from several quarters over his decision to stay in Belgium and manage the Super Eagles.
Speaking at a session at the ongoing Social Media Week in Lagos, Oliseh said he does not own any house in Nigeria and the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF)has not provided any one for him.

“I want to stay in Nigeria but I don’t have funds to rent a house there,” Oliseh said.
“I don’t have an apartment in Nigeria and I pay rent from my own pocket anytime I am in the country.”
Oliseh also revealed that he had an agreement with the NFF that he would not stay in the country and it is stipulated in his contract.
“We have already signed and agreed all these in the contract,” he added.
“I cannot coach from Nigeria because most of my players are based abroad,” he said.
Also read: Sunday Oliseh ‘scared for his life’
Oliseh was also asked how he can discover young talent in Nigeria and monitor his players in the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL).
“It is not the job of super eagles coach to discover youth talent,” Oliseh said.
“I only manage at the very top level and I my assistant goes around to monitor our players in the NPFL, that was what I and the NFF agreed.”

And later, some bloody ignoramuses will come here telling us fat lies that Rohr is given better treatment…. he’s earning times 4 of what our local coaches earned…he’s working from Europe…he’s not discovering “rough diamonds” from the local league (rough diamonds that never improve LMAO. Oboabona played AFCON, Confed Cup, World Cup – his game never improved one bit – From Rizespor to Saudi Arabia)
Oliseh too is here lieing to us as if we are his babies….I discovered Carl Ikeme…Fat Lie…. Onigbinde was the first coach to invite Ikeme to the National team in 2002 alongside Enyeama, Ejide, Ejiogu, Etafia and Shorunm. He was also invited to the 2008 AFCON camp by Vogts and the 2010 WC camp by Lagerback, but he fell sick and got injured respectively and couldn’t make the final squads on those occasions too. He only finally debuted under Oliseh because the 1st choice Enyeama was kicked out of camp as they were preparing in Belgium. Oliseh can only claim he gave him his debut (which was more rather circumstancial than premeditated)….not that he discovered him. Same way he’s claiming he discovered Ndidi and Iwobi and Iheanacho…..Fat lies. So what should Manu Garba say…???? If we aren’t careful Oliseh could even claim he gave birth to them…LMAO
Lieing to us he was about qualifying for world cup….which world cup..? As at when he abandoned the team…the world cup draws had not even be made….and we weren’t even close to qualifying for afcon yet.
I don’t know how people can be so shameless in this age and time and descend so low as to be telling lies….for what…???
This life is all about opportunities. Some people got theirs, mismanaged it, abandoned the team after just 7 months, left us in deep crises with a double header against Egypt ahead and ran away….some got theirs twice and couldn’t qualify us for ordinary AFCON….some got theirs, took is from No 70 position in the world, qualified from an extremely tough WC group blindfolded and unbeaten, 4 mins from WC R16, Qualified us again blindfolded for the same AFCON we had missed 3 of the previous 4 editions, despite loosing our first match, lost the semifinals of a 24 team AFCON (equivalent of the final of a 16 team AFCON) in the last second of the 94th, won 5 matches (unprecedented in the history of Nigeria’s participation at afcon) and a bronze with the youngest team at the tournament….yet people who ran away after 7 months are opening their wide mouths yen yen yen yen yen to talk anyhow to someone who has endured same treatment for 4 years!
It is now that we are sitting pretty at 31st position in the world moving higher and higher and getting better and better and stronger and stronger that they realize he is technically and tactically deficient.
Evil people…!!!
I am tired. The Ogoja people have a saying: “It is easy for a lame man to detect the faults of a warrior on the wrestling ground.”
That says it all. I only pray that I’ll not be forced to buy another SuperEagle’s calculator!
Hahahaha…where dem dey…???
@ Destar, @ Larry, @Stan, @ Goal and all the fat lairs in the house….have y’all suddenly lost your voices…??? Your lies have once again been busted.
LMAO
@Oakfield , I just visited the forum now only to read your numerous senseless post , I also took my time to check the acceptance and dislikes marks of every individual and I can not agreed less with those that see you as nothing as a LUNATIC who shouldn’t be allowed to be in the mist of civilized people , those that got interested in your rubbish ;the first sets was zero like ,3 dislike with your second post 2 likes and 5likes , now go through every other honourable members posts and reactions to their posts , none has embarrassing scores as yours where you called your fellow Nigerians myself & Omo9ja Cr….. I implore you to go through all your senseless vituperation and crazy words and if you would not say sorry , then I may have to come down seriously to your piggy level and come hard you , never you think because some of us choose to maintain civility and comport ourselves as a well mannered and responsible person as one should rightly conduct himself in a decent society and in an international media forum as this completes sports , would be a liberty where you just ditch out whatever nonsense that comes out from your negative mind . That you cannot safe yourself from your inferiority complex and treat your fellow Nigerians/ Coaches as human being who are capable to perform greatness as much as white man would do if given the same opportunity and conditions to operates , is your problem; that shouldn’t make you loose your sense of reasoning and decorum .
I tried as much as possible to avoid you and your cohorts in joining issues with you , whenever you were ditching out your ignoble trademarks, but you took your senseless remarks to another level by mentioning my name and Omo9ja calling yourself crazy .
Please, let this be your last warning.
Must you convey your message without showing at least a level of minimum decency as would required of a normal human being that is not brought up in animals kingdom ?
@DeStar
Just to clarify. You really meant this statement?
Must you convey your message without showing at least a level of minimum decency as would required of a normal human being that is not brought up in animals kingdom ?”
. . . some people are brought up in animals kingdom?.
Lol… Who is checking likes and dislikes???? Do they put food on my table? I post comments with total disregard of the number of likes and dislikes I’d get, it shows I’m a man and I stand by whatever I say, I’m not an eyeservice idiot just like you. I do not seek people’s recognition . I still stand by what I said that you and omo9ja are idiots and miserable psychos, and nothing on earth can change it. In as much ur posts are as long as the dead sea pyprus scrolls, they are just crap. U still post crap even when facts and figures have been presented to u time and again to suggest otherwise. Doesn’t that show how stupid u are?? Yeah, of course, they are people who were brought up in the animal kingdom (omo9ja and co) but u are the King of that kingdom. Your likes in real life would look like a scarecrow bcs your unjustified hatred for your fellow man is eating u up. Mr rohr, has done a great job for us and we like him like that. The world knows that and his outstanding records speak for him, get that into ur dumb ass empty, good for nothing skull. Fool.
I’m damn sure that if Oliseh was winning matches then as our coach just like rohr is winning now, he won’t leave because of all these excuses he listed. our last 5 matches were W D D W W for crying out loud! Why do we think replacing the coach is the best at this moment?
I don’t even asked Oliseh this question. Why is he looking for what was not lost? Who recall any match under Oliseh?
Well-thinking Nigerian football patriots have already done justice to Oliseh’s senseless ego-tripping. Are these the people that were calling Pinnick ready to take up Rohr’s job? Bonfrere (the sneaky and untrustworthy betrayer who couldn’t get another African national team coaching job), Oliseh (the runaway big mouth, immature, trouble-making and heady mafia) and the likes? Lol. Laff wan tear my belle.
Oga Oliseh, in Nigeria, the true headline on the streets is;
“Nigerians vow never to let Oliseh, Bonfrere, Bora Nilutinovic near the SE again!’
On the pecking order of past coaches (including runaways like you), Oliseh you’re not even number 10 on the queue of potential coaches for the SE. Your short tenure was a forgettable disaster. Who wants you back?
Sunday Oliseh a national hero in his own right. Regrettably, like most of all of us,he has some ‘faulty’ characteristic.
He comes out as a very proud persona.
Every human being needs a little bit of pride but the trick is to find the balance. The middle ground is what you seek or you tend to swing towards arrogance.
Unfortunately,our dear legend,Sunday Oliseh has always fallen towards arrogance.
Oliseh is an intelligent man, articulate in his words,visionary , he knows what he wants to do but just like King Solomon ,his intelligence has become his curse.
He comes out brash in his method of application. He feels he is better than everyone else. He is beyond reproach. He is so “principled” and there should be no bend,even when wisdom and selflessness says otherwise.
I hope he gets to hold his horse someday and like most of us,learn to work on his demons. Cause he got a lot to give, he just keep defeating himself.
” we can only become the hero of our dreams when we stop the villains within..”
We should all be careful in our judgements because working in a country called Nigeria is not easy as many think. This is exactly why I give much respect to Rohr and every predecessor. If the working conditions in Nigeria was enabling I’m very sure Rohr will do even better just like most the average Nigerians who are not getting the best of the government that is why most of the citizens struggles.
Oliseh left on his own out of personal reasons of which I respect and we should respect but he shouldn’t go online dissing his country because there is no need for that. Keshi and Amodu achieved a greater results but this same complicated Nigeria administration still didn’t know how to manage them that is why they couldn’t proceed to the next level after series of victories and achievements.
The Next we hear is Keshi and Amodu is dead…. This country we find ourselves in is one of the complicated place on earth as a result of under-education and this has resulted into not just mismanagement but also bitterness and loss of humor from even the fans itself that is why some people instead of reading meditate and comprehend before reacting they just let go off their guard and let go abuses on fellow fans. Sometimes even if they accept your submissions but because of bitterness they’ll diss you.
In the end we are one Nigeria that is why sometimes I agree and disagree with Drey who I don’t see as an enemy but a fellow commentator. If we all agree to one course of transparency it will go a long way in helping our country and individuals.
If most of this guys here will remember I was the number enemy of Ighalo just like Yakubu because of their strange misses but when they sit up just like the advance world we rally back and have them wanted and loved again this is exactly how a father relates to his kids. Nigerians we can do better first of all let’s start by showing respect and genuine love to each other black yellow or white.
Same applies to a coach like Samson Siasia almost won gold at the u20 World Cup, silver and bronze at the Olympic where we all know we were denied by the pathetic officiating. This same man struggled with the NFF and NFA on different eras where he had to feed players from his pocket even though he was owed by the NFF. This same coach was made to go through serious trauma by kidnappers who held his mom in the mist of false allegations by a strategic FIFA to destroy one of our finest.
Guys if we don’t take care of our affairs outsiders will be acting like they care but indirectly they want our downfall such that whoever thrive in this environment they’ll make sure he is brought down. This is exactly what FIFA did. But it all started from how we showcase ourselves to the world. On the other side our leaders are enemies to the country that they don’t know how to manage successful people rather they’ll do everything to pull you down. But it is well!
Good one @ Hush, Oliseh’s disposition to doing things to me is a function of Nigerians very detasteful attitude to life. Oliseh come across as arrogant, agreed but not necessarily proud. We all must agree that you need that arrogance to be able to do the right thing especially in the Nigeria setting. Tunde Idiagbon of blessed memory was arrogant simply because he was truly concerned about the self destruct way we nigerians were doing things but what happened, he refused to let go of his resolve n as a consequence got murdered. But Oliseh chose to give in. Now who is to be blamed? the arrogant person or the decaying society? Many have fallen victims of this crass decay, bedevilling our (Nigeria) every attempt to rise above our limitations; d expression of evil, satanic mechanism anchored by very few selfish individuals both within n without. These will do anything n everything possible to malign n kill you, if you try to liberate nigerians, for they enjoy n feed fat from our ignorance. So it’s only normal to project an arrogant front to send a message to such evil agents that you are not approachable to be used as a stooge, when you know,you are truly honest about doing things right, in such society as ours. But unfortunately, is such society honest or educated enough to get your message? That’s the big question. I boldly say the answer is NO. Even Jesus Christ was killed instead of Barnabas n many many others. We all, fighting everyday for Rohr to stay because of same reason. Some few at NFF, footballers agents, fans, ex internationals etc say he is proud/ arrogant. They almost started off with Ekong, Balogun etc. All they need is, give the DOG A BAD NAME N EVERYONE WILL KILL IT WITH A STONE. Oliseh, whether anyone likes it or not remain a super hero in the history of nigeria football, what he did with Futuna sithard, is a testimony of his capacity/ capability to deliver under a workable environment. It’s just so shameful, that all these problems are being created by some selfish individuals in NFF, media houses, football agent n ignorant fans,if not, I don’t see how d NFF would not have been able to get Rohr who has done fantastically well albeit he has his short comings to work amicably with Oliseh or others. Rohr can’t be there forever. Our problem in this country is we get too emotional n selfish in dealing with issues, n this always culminate unto producing negative results/effects. Otherwise, yes it’s sound good to have qualified ex international to manage our SE, though not forgetting previously appointed ones,totally messed up such opportunities with under the carpet dealings,regarding low quality players invitation. But why should we do away with a coach ( Rohr), thats do very well with the team simply because he is not Nigerian. Isn’t that foolishness of the highest order or pure witchcraft?. If anything,such people nursing such ludacris idea should rather be supporting Rohr in the short run while encouraging him to find space for quality ex international such as Oliseh, Amunike, Finidi etc to take up the batton after he Rohr then decides to leave. But because these lots are so evil n selfish they have refused to stop pressing a self destruct button. God bless NIGERIA, GOD BLESS GERNOT ROHR N GOD BLESS SUNDAY OLISEH. YOU REMAIN A HERO.
Nicely written @Glory
I appreciate seeing things from your own view.
Why I do agree with you with the bane of the society; but I have to say,my pointing out the pride in Oliseh has nothing to do with just his relationship with the NFF but his past and present attitude towards different people, bodies and issues.
His arrogance,though necessary sometimes,comes out highhandedly with no regards to the other.
It doesn’t really correlate with Idiagbon or a Sankara,whose arrogance was born out of been strict for the common good;like a father would do towards a disorderly and son.
Like every other characteristics; Pride,arrogance, could be good but you have to find the balance. It has to be moderate or you tend to fall off the cliff.
Oliseh’s handling of the Enyeama’s debacle comes to mind. His ego and arrogance caused Nigeria the sudden retirement of one of the best hands. Though I understand what Oliseh was trying to do then,trying to put down his authority,but his pride and arrogance came to full circle,he handled it shobbily.
He made a Musa captain over Mikel. We all know why. It took the wisdom of Musa to correct such wrong.
Even in his playing days at Juventus,Dortmund; his prideful(arrogant) nature caused him a lot.
On the contrary, look how Amunike handled the situation in Tanzania and Egypt. Though verbal but with calmness and wit. It was both resolve and his respect kept intact.
Same goes for Keshi and Amodu in their past dealings handling of situations both with the NFF,Togo,Orlando pirates and such.They handled with wisdom; even when outspoken.
Oliseh might have his reasons,just reasons too.But his attitude isn’t always right.
That’s just my opinion.
…it’s even worse that he tell lies now.
I hope all the nonsense he said in this interview where concocted by the writer and not really said by him….otherwise, he has just rubbed what is left of his integrity in the mud with such boldfaced lies.
I’m still waiting for the “Rohr is getting preferential treatment” group to come and and tell us all those links I posted above are false.
@ Drey, you definitely one I come here to read. But with regards to Oliseh, go easy with him, He deserves better. Pay less to what is on the media today. It’s all about, give a dog a bad name just so others can kill it. They did n are still doing same to Rohr you know? What is key to me is these managers transparency n honest desire to perform for the betterment of the team/ Nigeria n not just for their self interest. All other things the media say matters less.
Very true @ Hush. It’s reason why working with a very experienced coach as Rohr would have truly helped him Oliseh, learn how to deal with such difficult situations. Because,to be honest he did most of those things albeit way out of proportion for the good of the nation. To me that’s key while the rest will can find a way through it. Oliseh is an absolutely brilliant person with so much belief n that is an ingredient not common to find. We must not pretend not know how nigerian footballers especially the ones born in Nigeria suddenly starts to feel like they are bigger than everybody especially the country. They become so egocentric, that it becomes extremely difficult for a local coach to manage them. Go ask Siasia why Mikel wasn’t in that Olympic team that came second behind Argentina, Chris Udumezie had high blood pressure from managing players like Tarila Okorowanta, etim esin. Clemence Westerhoff had to call the bluff of Stephen Keshi, Etim Esin, Austin Eguavoen, Samson Siasia, etc on SE way to Algiers 90. Enyaema, always a keeper I respect but at later stages of his career started becoming an egg head maybe unconsciously. Rohr always relying on younger players is just a way of stating the obvious,about nigeria players thinking they have arrived n as such, they have to call d shots. Rohr with huge experience in dealing with such attitude has succeeded in gradually weeding the team of such elements, reason Rohr isn’t too keen about Mikel, Moses retirement. From Rohrs many comments, you can easily see, that he would have been happy to have Ighalo back because Ighalo is one very successful Nigeria footballer who still keep head under waters despite all, so also is Ahmed Musa. Truth is, you must have to get rid of players with big ego before you can do anything useful with your team and that was what Oliseh was trying to do but he may not have had the experience to handle such negatives.
@Dr drey, am a buisness man i dont have time for you and your boys.
Hahahaha…A “businessman” in this period of global stay home induced pandemic is claiming he doesn’t have time….Lolz. Pls what do you sell….Covid 19 or Corona virus vaccines…? LMAO
Bloody lairs. When they want to come here to tell lies and say things they cannot back up with facts or evidence….they will have time. Once you shut them up with facts and they have no way to pass again with their lies, they come up with “I don’t have your time” cries…..some in foreign languages. LMAO.
May you never have my time.
@Drey, I do understand your position and reaction to all posts that sound contrary to yours.
Try to be objective for once, Rohr has not done anything special, qualifying us for a world-cup which our indigenous coaches have qualified for at 4 times. Beyond that, an indigenous coach equaled our w’cup achievement(second round), which Rohr could not the last time.
You are celebrating nations cup bronze medal, where our indigenous coaches have performed far better.
I do not have anything against Rohr, it’s just that i do not share your opinion about him being irreplaceable.
His past performance with other countries and record with Nogeria in competition speak a volume. Oliseh may have his shortcomings, in terms of commitments and performance, he deserves our praises not retribution.
I’m not the type that calls people out. Since i was mentioned in your post, I felt I should make things clear to you.
People do forget that respect is earned and not gotten by gra-gra.
We are talking about our dear Super Eagles and not club sides, so we want only the best of the best, we have to really prove that we the giant of Africa in the world stage (world cup ) and not by mouth.
Oga Rohr is trying his best but so far we want more which he isn’t giving.
Until we start seeing something different that will earn him our full respect we wouldn’t hesitate to do so.
He needs to prove to us that he is that coach that can make the difference in a tough match. So far i can only rate his performance 58% , the rating will improve as i start seeing something different.
Oliseh is good technically and otherwise, his only undoing is his attitude(man management skills) which he can improve upon.
“…I do not have anything against Rohr, it’s just that i do not share your opinion about him being irreplaceable…”
Another fat lie. Pls copy and paste any post of mine where I ever declared Rohr as IRREPLACEABLE.
Nobody is here to compel you to change your opinions. It’s a free world….most of us here are just here to put things in proper perspectives and set the records straight. Because you and your Oliseh that deserves our praises have resorted to cheap lies just to try and undermine the current coach and try to convince yourself he had DONE NOTHING.
If it were Oliseh or Siasia that took us from no 70 in the world to our current no 31, narrowly missing the R16 of the WC and the final of AFCON with the youngest teams of both tournaments…you would all be idolising them by now. But in your blatant display of racism Rohr has done nothing, as if skin colour should be the yardstick for employing coaches for our national teams rather than the guarantee to get the job done and move the team forward.
Yea…Rohr may not have done anything spectacular….because he has brought us to where we are now, but as at when he was employed even the NFF say qualification for WC and a semifinal of AFCON as something spectacular because of where we were as at then…even Paul Le Guen reminded us how superfluous those targets were.
Even the Oliseh that is lieing about now like a crybaby once called us ‘insane’ for expecting a drastic change in the fortunes of the SE…but things weren’t even as bad as at then as what Rohr met on ground o. But because Rohr has gotten where we are today, meeting ALL the targets SET FOR HIM BY HIS EMPLOYERS, without breaking a sweat, without us ever needing to watch football with calculators and logarithm tables…it has now become so inconsequential to us that the idea of reliving him of the job is sounding like hip-hop music in our ears.
Our local coaches too have not done anything spectacular, the ones that have done well so far have done well because they were competent and qualified enough for the job when they were employed….not because of the colour of their skins…or because that had won some age grade tournaments meant for boys with men. In contrast our local coaches have been the ones to always mess things up for us more….and then we always have to turn to the foreign guys to lift us back up.
The era of handing the SE to just anyone with the hope of seeing what will come out of it is gone….in a game like football that hardly has guarantees, it is still wise enough that whoever will lead us on from there wouldn’t just be a “…let’s give him a try” but will be “…he has done it before, he will do it again…”. Anybody that wants to “try” should go and “try” with either our U20s or our CHAN teams…..not even our U23s, because the failure of any U23 team is a stagnation of the production line that feeds the Senior national team. If we are having any problems in any position in the SE today…it’s because our U23 team has not fed that position.
And for your “…I’m not the type that calls people out…”
LMAO….for reall..? Are you really sure about this…? If you want to take this further, I would gladly copy your “callouts” and post for you hear to read for yourself.
The firepower (with facts and figures) is becoming too much for them to handle that they’ve start crawling back into their miserable shells of evil. Weldone @drey and other great men on this forum that love the truth. Evil can never defeat good, never!
Sunday Oliseh once said he would never return back to the Super Eagles after his retirement, now he says he will not return to the Super Eagles as a coach.
As good a player he was for Nigeria, his career was chequered by attitude problems which ultimately led to his inglorious exit from the national team (for one so talented).
It was always a bad idea to appoint him as the coach of the Super Eagles to start with as he wasted no time in displaying his calling card with the high profile feud with Enyeama (which led to the goalkeeper’s resignation – something a lot of Super Eagles fans have hardly gotten over).
That was to be the beginning of his spats as he would go on to have a major feud with his former teammates who was working in the NFF under administrative capacity.
“What I find most annoying is that these ex-colleagues who now sit to criticise were just not the real actors who made the Eagles tick way back.” Said Oliseh when he was Super Eagles coach in a rather bizarre YouTube video.
Now they are doing the same thing sitting down to criticise.
They should go for coaching courses or pick up coaching jobs.” He emphasised.
Players like Troost Ekong – who is now a fulcrum of the Super Eagles – still finds it hard to overcome the demoralising comments Oliseh made to him.
“After a game, he [Oliseh] said we were too soft to play against African players.
That upset me because one of my traits as a player is that I am someone who does not back away from anyone. I am not the most skilful, but I know what I am good at” Ekong lamented.
The France ’98 hero mentioned all the horrific working conditions in the NFF which are very well documented. Yet, coaches like Amuneke and Manu Garba have endured such horrendous conditions and yet would happily return to work for the NFF if called upon.
Sunday Oliseh is a Super Eagles legend – no one can take that from him. The way he has gone about to reinvent himself as a motivational speaker, pundit and coach after his football career is very admirable and worthy of emulation by current footballers.
However, if he has not learnt anything from the way he retired from the Super Eagles and the rather forgettable time that he spent as the coach of the Super Eagles, then, it is not a bad idea if he never comes anywhere near the Super Eagles again.
Lol @oakfield. Checkout the number of dislikes destar has on his post above. What does that tell you? Bunch of chronic liars and ignoramus. He said he will start typing rubbish so I don’t blame him let him continue writing his rubbish We’re here for him.
Ha haha haha haha haha…. My belle o! @ aphilly, “are u see what I’m saw??? ” Lol… Mr likes and dislikes done dy carry first. His dislikes will continue to rise like covid 19 so tey him go commit suicide. I can’t just stop laughing. U too much @aphilly. We are ready for them. Fools of the highest order
And he is recording 16 dislikes the last time I checked….Lol… The highest so far in the history of this forum on csn. Lol… Mr “dislikes”, come and carry ur basket o, e don full!
Calm down….don’t b in too much of a hurry to glorify him. A certain omo9ja had 29 dislikes a few days ago.
Just setting the records straight as usual. LMAO
Haha haha! U know, one thing I like about u @drrey is that you’re a master of record keeping. Lol….
I’ve said it way before he came out with all this blah blah blah blah. I don’t ever expect Oliseh to come anywhere near the SuperEagles again. Someone that was bungled out of the SuperEagles unceremoniously despite his talent during his playing days. He left the SuperEagles before a double header with Egypt because he realized he’s not equipped enough for an opponent of that caliber. He’s the only Nigerian coach that failed to take the SuperEagles out of the group stage at the CHAN tournament.
Most SuperEagles fans are yet to get over his ludicrous spat with Enyeama that led to the premature retirement of the greatest ever goalie Nigeria and Africa has ever produced. He was coming from Belgium before every national assignment and will return to Belgium immediately and some chronic liars here are blaming Rohr that he’s not staying in Nigeria haba! The same Rohr that goes around watching the local league with Toyin Ibitoye most times he’s in Nigeria.
At least I’ve seen a few post on Ibitoye Twitter handle posing with Rohr at local league games in Age stadium and some other parts of Nigeria. I doubt if Oliseh ever watch a single local league match in Nigeria during those miserable 7 months that is so forgettable. They can all come out now and lament because the SuperEagles are better off the way they left it.
Top marks AY!
Olishe have done the right thing. Olishe have chosen the hard way to teach the NFF to behave themselves.
Only in Nigeria you work for free and you have no right to ask your boss for your salary.
Only in Nigeria your boss will get their salaries and people under them will be suffering.
Some of us really good at finding someone weaknesses. They knew that Olishe have anger issue while they don’t see the otherside of the issue. Hmm, akoba gafara. Who does that?
However, under section 419a, of my constitution says, treat others like yourself.
My question is this, can you work for free?
Can you work where there’s no love?
Sooner or later, coach Rohr will voice out. NFF will frustrate Oga Rohr. They will make life difficult for him this time around.
However, as a Nigerian Olishe can give advice to the coaches of Super Eagles.
Fellow Nigerians, don’t you think that at this stage, Nigeria should have their own ex players as their own coaches?
Is it not wise enough to make a move before the next Afcon and world cup?
Is it a bad idea to have Amunike, Yobo and Fini with coach Rohr?
These three ex players will take over from coach Rohr but NFF doesn’t think this way.
Hmm, coach Rohr fans should be patient a bit because how many years late Keshi built a team that won the Afcon? Although, the team wasn’t that okay but still, they managed to win the Afcon title.
Oga Rohr fans should come out and tell me about the current Super Eagles team that have good team at world cup and Afcon still, he won Bronze and you people still chanting coach name? Chai, customer da a dani lol.
Our own ex players are better than the foreign coach but NFF do not have a good plan for this country. Otherwise, NFF should have putting something better than this in place. Yobo alone is not good enough for the job.
Anyways, I have to stop here for now because truth is bitter. Ire o. God bless Nigeria!!!
@King A , Yes I meant that message on @ Oakfield ( though I must apologize to you and every sensible honourable members in the house for making such derogatory remarks in the house , but you need to go and read @Oakfield senseless remarks on me and Omo9ja, calling us crazy for saying our personal opinion on the football matters in our country, he has been doing this with his cohorts more than a week until yesterday that I decided to descend low to his level).
As for @Oakfield , I don’t have any apology for him , he is a LUNATIC that ought to have been chained in Yaba without access to social media , and I am of the option that his medical teams are not getting it right , for them to get a meaningful result a new approach needs to be done, for his madness is actually complicated with his unfortunate upbringing from his animals kingdom’s clan . Until he stops his senseless and derogatory remarks mentioning my name , which clearly gives his medical team away that , it is either he is using quack medical team who could not prescribe right dosage of drugs for him or he is not being monitored adequately ; I will continue to come down more to his level and come hard on him until he realizes that he is a Lunatic in deed that shouldn’t be allowed yet in the society until he comes back to the forum to show evidence of being discharged from his current rehabilitation centre. @ Oakfield , let the message get into your head, he has a cohort .
I am seriously waiting for you, to keep your medical team busy for a while, so that they will realize, they are not getting it right ,until such a time you can contribute in the house ( even if lacks logic as I never expected any good sense of reasoning to come from a psychiatric deranged patient like you) without calling your fellow Nigerians crazy because of your inferiority complex to the white coloured skins which was complicated with your unfortunate upbringing and unwell treated malady .
@ Dr Drey , I can’t loose my voice oo, I have time constraints ,I have put down my opinion while I wait for others to contribute from their own perceptive since no one has monopoly of knowledge. I do enjoy reading brilliant analysis devoid of heaping derogatory fouls languages on ourselves.
I can acknowledge unbiased analysis from the likes @Glory , balance analysis & masterpiece as usual from @Larry and great one that can only come from great mind (@Chima E Samuels , he just killed it ,very much on point , such brilliance can only come from a great mind , @Mr Hush’s balance analysis on Oliseh’ prowess and weakness can only come from a great mind , nothing to add on @Goal , He is always on point . You cannot help but to appreciate it, when you see unbiased and balanced analysis with facts devoid of derogatory remarks running down their fellow Nigerians great coaches as if nothing good can come out from them , then insulting and calling your fellow Nigerians names as crazy , foolish just because they don’t shared in their foolishness of inferiority complex and upbringing deficiency , even as at then , would a sane person result to using such bad words on their fellow Nigerians not even using such words on foreigner , it is totally unacceptable in any descent society .
My only additional comment on Oliseh vs Enyama, in as much Oliseh has his weakness but on Enyama, he was dam right , every coach has his own defined method of coaching template and methods, the 2 most successful coaches in the world going by the numbers of cups won are JM & Pep , none of the two can tolerate players with ego or indiscipline and that is the major problems of the average Nigerians players after the Westerhof era ( who was the most successful coach ever in Nigeria) , except King Kanu and Ipeba prince of Monaco that kept their heads low throughout their playing career , hence , it was not surprised that to date only the two ever won African footballer of the year post Westerhof era ,all others fell by the way side of winning the prized award , mostly they do it to our local coaches ( which reasons could be majorly traced to the way NFF treats their local coaches and support those players against their coaches, who they never wanted their success), JJ Okocha started it with Chairman Chwuku , as S/E Capt then missing his way to S/E training and friendly match in his domain in London and by extension only played home matches , Chairman Chukwu couldn’t control JJ, Obafemi who was the youngster and in form of his life then , in reaction to the Capt JJ act also failed too honoured a crucial qualifying match to a major tournament, at the end Chairman Chukwu was sacked as he failed and the Super eagles failure too meant JJ coming distance 3rd behind Drogber with Eto clinching the award , then come Mikel after Under 20 who was just coming from the failed under 17 tournament appearance , Siasia brought a chemistry and strategy where Mikel and the team shown like a million stars ⭐️ and was head to head with Messi who won the MVP beating Mikel to 2nd position with just few points because of wining the cup which was partly due to bad officiating- penalty ( at the end everyone knew a super star that has come to rule the world is live from Nigeria ) . But unfortunately, Mikel is now in the biggest club ahead of his mates and seniors , and earning mega bucks, the first casualty of course was his Coach Siasia who was not helped by his employer with finance , so of what benefits is it to Mikel (so he must have thought ) , he told Siasia ,he cannot honour Olympic qualifiers as he was the most busiest Nigerian player in the world ( claiming, he played in Premiership , UEFA, FA , S/E thinking he has arrived , while Messi on the other hands believe , he is not there yet , ensured Argentina did not miss that year Olympic Games by playing in all the qualifying matches , all other football matches involving his club and country continue sharpening his skills with every available opportunity, Siasia team without his most valuable player Mikel successfully qualified for Olympic Games and does went to the Olympic and deservedly dropped Mikel . Messi was able to take his skills to the biggest Football tournament after World Cup , by the time Messi played against the best in the world , the finished product had been unveiled, leaving our Mikel behind with comparisons that would amount to insult to Messi exploits . Enyama Ego reared it’s ugly head during Siasia, so it is attitude problem and nothing more , if he had taken correction during Siasia, he would have behaved himself under equally no nonsense Oliseh, Enyama cannot be two time lucky , he destabilize Siasia team where he had backing of NFF and the crisis made S/E missed the Afcon , so trying to repeat it again , he met his match in Oliseh , so it is Enyama faults that he ingloriously finished his career with S/E.
For those who criticize Oliseh on Enyama , please go to history of the most successful coach in Nigeria ( Westerhof) Peter Rufai our best goalkeeper was also axed from the super Eagles and it took some years before he can be prevailed upon to give Rufai second chance , just because Rufai was walking majestically into the first training session that Westerhof was in charge of Super eagles, Siasia who at a time didn’t passed to the advantageous Yekini , had his fair share of Westerhof style and Dimeji Lawal was unlucky as he never got 2nd another chance with S/E until he retired on injury , no thanks to Lagos fans who pelted Westerhof with sachet water for his initial delayed to bring in Dimeji and then being over praised by the Lagos fans after scoring the 2nd goal that seal the hope of Cameron to the charging of the coach and of course the head of the mafia .
For our players to live up to their potentials under the hands of our Local coaches they need a highly disciplined coach in the mould of both Siasia and Oliseh which can be balanced by the likes of Amunike , Joseph Yobo and Rufai with his experience , Amunike is good but ,but strong character is also needed when dealing with NFF except there is changing in the system. NFF surely needs a stronger character who can stands up and demand for his right and the welfare of his players as the white coaches also get , it is only in Nigeria when one stands up to demands his rightful entitlement, then NFF would tagged him names , in the first instance must he stay on the job , financing his assistants, his players with months of unpaid salary from his purse to the detriment of his health as if he is running charity organization ? Was oga Rohr also paying his assistants , financing players as Siasia was also turned to beggar ? If Oliseh had stayed and died untimely death like Keshi and Amodu , who would have remembered him except his family ? What a country, because our previous local coaches have been enduring all manner of hellish conditions to the detriment of their health, so the system should continue. Chairman Chukwu who served his country as player and later as coach with his blood under a killing circumstances with too much gentility with NFF , would have been a forgotten man in his grace safe for his colleague Big Seg Odegbami who facilitated his overseas medical treatment through Femi Otedola, what a country.
@ Ayphillydegreat , let this be the last warning you , make that your senseless remarks on me , you started it with @ Oakfield where I tolerated you for long as @Omo9ja @Stan etc have been tolerating you . I never wanted to join issues with you and @Oakfield since last week you said you do kick your clan’s elders in the dustbin , that you were unfortunate brought up in that type of animals kingdom clan does not give you liberty to take that insane mentality into a civilized society. Please, you and @Oakfield put a fool stop into your madness, otherwise, I will be ready for the two of you as well , that you have such ignoble clan upbringing shouldn’t give you phoney impression , that you have the monopoly of uttering fouls words on others. I can assure you, I am ready to come down to your level and hit you raw until, two of you are returned back to Yaba and well chained. I am seriously waiting for the two of you.
You can start I don’t have any problem with if that’s how shameful you are. The truth has finally caught up with you so can go ahead we are waiting for your madness. I bet you I’ve not even said anything yet to you. I’m just beginning only waiting for you to start bitting trees before I descend on you fully. I have the truck me for people like you who only come here to make a full of themselves. Go ahead you will regret your life here on this platform.
Mr dislikes, i’m surprised u haven’t checked ur basket of dislikes since yesterday, its already full o. U need to go clear it to make space for more. Lol….yes, if inferiority complex has brought us this far and would still take us further in the future, then, just leave am like that. We like am. Your so called home bred coahes have brought us nothing but disaster and heart breaks. Just imagine, they couldn’t even qualify our junior cadre teams for ordinary chan and Olympics, not forgetting missing out on consecutive 2afcons. A man with common sense always does and stick to what works for him and so far, rohr has been working for us with outstanding records to show for it over a short period of time. U inability to see and acknowledge this even when proven facts have been placed before u shows that u lack that common sense a human being should have. It shows how stupid and foolish you are. Is this how you’d run an organization when given the opportunity? Removing a man who has been performing so well all bcs o his skin colour and putting someone who knows nothing about the job all bcs his black?? This is exactly what has kept us where we are to day in this country. Instead of appointing the right people to help him effectively run the affairs of this country to ensure we get to the level we ought to be and make life better for the poor masses, That good for nothing of a president has appointed people who arent qualified for even the least of positions just bcs they come from his tribe and everybody can see the result. I’ve come across lots of foolish people on this forum but your own foolishness knows no bounds. You make out time to type ur posts (probably depriving yourself of sleep which could be one of the causes of ur inability to think properly as a normal human being) but at the end of the day, its crap and makes no single sense. Its a pity that someone like u has access to the internet bcs your such a disgrace. Idiot!
Imagine the crap you just type. That for Nigeria players to live up to their potentials they need siasia and Oliseh LMAO!!! Whatever you’re smoking must be prime time. Very laughable. How many times has siasia failed to qualify us for ordinary AFCON??? And how did Oliseh abandoned the team when they needed him the most???? Infact your brain needs some major overhauling. LMAO!!! With all due respect lmao!! LMAO!!!
Lol…. His brains need refomatting. ..
@Ayphillydegreat & @Oakfield , trust me when I see fact I say it as it is , just like the brilliant analysis from the great minds like @Omo9ja, @Goal,@Glory, @Larry etc . I must admit your medical team are really working very had on your mental relapsed, as I observed you gradually improving , no longer mentioning my name directly and can also noticed you don’t mentioned names of others forum members and tagged them ‘crazy ; that I concede to your medical team ,for it is not easy to completely get read of a Lunatics deranged patients like 2 of you who were unfortunately brought up in animals kingdom where kicking of your elders into the bins is the least you can do if they have contrary opinion to you , as you had claimed last week.
But , I will still keep my eyes on you until such time you become normal to make your contribution in the forum without having to mention people’s names and apply that your usual senseless trade mark of using fowls languages on your fellow Nigerians just because they are not suffering mental disorder as yours.
If by adventure, I notice you dropped your Nigerian medical team that having been doing a great job on you to a foreign quack medical Doctor, which I can easily know if you tagg me with your senseless derogatory remarks, trust me, I will hit you harder until you are adequately chained where your clan would have new orientation, that , this is a civilized world and not animal kingdom, they need to correct your younger ones so that they don’t loose it as yours .
Crap again by Mr destar,arrnat nonsense from @destar, rubbish from @destar. @ destar, you’re such a miserable racist that needs urgent help.
Ive called your useless name the way I want, u can go and hug a wet transformer in your area if u have any. Y digress from the subject matter and resort to senseless rants like a child in primary school? You’re such a disgrace to humanity@ destar. I’m really sorry for the company u work for or your family bcs your head is full of shit. Nothing good would ever proceed from u bcs your heart is evil. Continuing hating rohr while he signs a new contract that will last till after the coming world cup, that’s if you’d still be mentally stable by then. Lol. Miserable idiot with no home training like you. Your bags or dislikes is piling up, do something about it. Anu!
“…trust me when I see fact I say it as it is , just like the brilliant analysis from the great minds like @Omo9ja…”
Hmmmm…. you mean the brilliant analysis that got 30 dislikes…??? LMAO.
And you claim you see facts…?! Facts like Rohr earning $50k is 4 times the $30k Oliseh earned…? Or facts like Rohr has never been owed even for one day…?
Ah man…Ah man..! You need to see an optician ASAP
Loooooool!!!!! 30 dislikes lol…dis one off me abeg ….
Lol
The destar guy is suffering from mental rabbies. Maybe if destar brain his surgically overhauled to that of a chimpanzee, destar might be able to make some sense LMAO!!! Infact even the brain of a chimpanzee might be better off than that of destar. Stuck on stupid fellow destar.
I’m sure he wanted to say
“…trust me when I see LIES I say it as it is…”
Because really, just like omo9ja, that dude is another chronic lair. Omo9ja will tell you he discovered Aribo, Esiti and Onuachu LMAO.
Even when I’ve posted tons and tons of links, he still comes here to tell the same sets of lies he’s been telling since last week
@Ayphillydegreat, how can a Lunatic come to his sense , when you are okay to do that , I will not have choice than to congratulate your medical team , but I am very sure , it will not come all that easy, therefore , I never expected any apology from you at this your level of mental relapsed. I am very sure ,your medical team also wouldn’t be expecting apology for constantly given them away as if they are not getting it right because while you give them much work to do , they also smiling to the bank from the money from your family Clan’s elders you claimed, you do kick into the dustbins.
As for me , I don’t have pity for such a family that believes, it is right things for their children to be kicking them into dustbin , that is why your insanity is a complicated one , one , it is generation deficiencies as INSANITY is in the DNA of your clan . But trust , me I, will not only weep you until you are rightly chained by your medical team but also until your family conduct an emergency meeting to carry out complete overhaul of foundation problem of your generation deficiencies where it is normal for children to be kicking their elders into the dustbin .
That your clan is also unfortunately grouped together in this country is very embarrassing, to such extent of infecting a descent society as ours , but I will hit you until your generation either come to their senses that , they cannot be breeding Lunatics into a civilized Nigeria nation or until they realized they have failed as a misfit clan that doesn’t have anything good to offer in this society.
….. waiting for you again and your cohorts to mention my name with your senseless trademark ,to whip you until you run back to your misfit animal kingdom clan that failed the first test of parenting … I maintain my stand on you , @Aphyiildgreat you remain LUNATIC until you can show proof of medical stability from a certified medical Doctor, in this forum and it should not be from quack Doctor .
It is your level of insanity that makes you taking , nothing good can ever come from Nigerian coaches and anyone, that doesn’t have mental disorder like you, you called him names .
INCURABLE LUNATIC !
LMAO!! The destar guy is suffering from mental rabbies. Maybe if destar brain his surgically overhauled to that of a chimpanzee, destar might be able to make some sense LMAO!!! Infact even the brain of a chimpanzee might be better off than that of destar. Stuck on stupid fellow destar.
