Super Eagles coach,Shaibu Amodu has exonerated himself from Nigeria’s lethargic display in yesterday’s 3-1 loss to defending Africa Cup of Nations champions,Egypt.
Rather the former BCC Lions of Gboko coach is blaming the players for committing elementary errors despite taking the lead via Chinedu Obasi,the player that was forced on the coach by Nigeria Football Federation technical sub-committee head a day after the January 1 deadline set by CAF for submition of players list for the on-going 27th Africa Cup of Nations.
“We played well and controlled the game especially in the first half but somehow we made some silly mistakes and we were punished’,said Amodu at the post match press conference Amodu was silent over his decision to field players who have either not played competitive football for over a month or have not been regular with their clubs in Europe.
He also refused to comment on why he fielded Yusuf Mohammed where Chidi Odiah was fit and ready to play.
Amodu should better resign, he has nothing to offer
The Man Amodu should take the whole blame for the woes of the team. His team selection and substitutions were faulty. What contribution did Nwaneri, Yussuf Mohammed and Taye Taiwo make in the match? A Chidi Ordia was benched for 90mins, Elderson also was benched (these are better players than the two aformentioned) whereas Adeleye was dropped entirely from the team. It’s so sad that at the level in world football, our NFF can afford to toy with the administration of the team. If Amodu continues as coach, I’m afraid we are going to exit the world cup with no point. (Amodu should also remember to return the Kia Jeep given to him by the PTF)
Na today you know dat! hmmmmmmmmmm. I dey sitdon look how dey go disgrace themselves finish for this ANC. Make i go jare go watch Mali match. Na keshi bi dat. Better person.
AMODU’s appointment is a silly mistake, he is not a coach.How can he has exonerated himself from Nigeria’s lethargic display in yesterday’s 3-1 loss to defending Africa Cup of Nations champions. He is not know what is doing.he is not sound technical and lack of credibility. EVERYTIME EXCUSE UPON EXCUSE .Pls for goodness sake Mr Lulu for the interest of THIS NATION forget about 10% give us a SOUND COACH, B4 our team will fumble and wobble
Amodu should do things on merit and not look at big names. For God sake where was Yakubu in the whole of yesterday’s match? Why was martins not fielded? What was Osaze doing on the bench? Why use a short Kalu Uche as a point striker? So only Obasi was a fit Striker yet he was not in the initial list? Why then does he have drop Mike Eneramo when all his strikers are not fit? Big names no dey pay atimes. make this kind mistake no happen for world cup oh. or else…….
is better for Amodu to dies instead of Mr Presiden
Nigeria, losing 3 – 1 to Egypt, this is not acceptable. Why not call back the squad that went to france to claim a 1 – 0 win over the former world champion. We really have a team but we are not making use of our real team

NOW YOU KNOW HOW USELESS THE MAN IS..
I think Amodu s problem is arrogant in him,..and he is not an ex footballer,.cos no player whether active or retired will take this shame and still hook his head on it…Amodu and NFF are disgrace to our nation,…they had fail us..But lets give them benefit of doubt,maybe they can still spring up and surprise their critics..Evil that men do lives after them..We have a lot ex internationals that can manage this football administration well in this country…Astin Eguaveon,christain chukwu,odegbami,Uche okey,taribo west,oliseh,finidi,ikpeba,okocha,adepoju,oliha,aloy agu,keshi,dosu,shorumu,peter rufai,okafor and many more to mention..Why all this LULU,Ogunjobi,ojo-oba,and their
crooks??Why??
Until we start finding some solution,we will continue sinking and living in doom…we need to clean up the glass house and elect the right people in there,cos FA or glass house is not for one or five people..Its our property and we have all it takes to change or keep anybody in that positions..Nigeria football is dying gradually because of some fools that know nothing about soccer.
Bitch Bitch Bitch Amodu is just a dick sucker……. tHE MAN AINT GAT NO GUST HE CAN NOT EVEN TAKE RESPONSIBILITIES FOR HIS ACTIONS
IT SURPRISED ME WHEN I HEAR A COACH IN THIS MORDERN ERA SPEAKS IGNORANTLY.TO BE FRANK HE LACKS THE TECHNICAL KNW HOW.EGYPTCOACH SAW OUR LAPSES FROM THE LEFT AND USE THAT SIDE TO GAT ALL HIS GOALS.HE DOES NOT KNOW HOW TO HANDLE COUNTER ATTACK THAT CAUSE US THE FIRST GOAL.HOW CAN WE DROP PEOPLE WE USE TO PLAY QUALIFIERS ON THE BENCH? IS TAYE BETTER THAN ECHIEJENE? WHO KNOWS NWANERI IN SWISS AS A PLAYER? PLEASE AM HEART BROKEN BY AMODUs LACK OF WISDOM GIVE THIS JOB TO PEOPLE THAT KNOWS IT AND KEEP POLITICS APART.
Amodu or wetin u cald dat idiot is not a gud coach at all bcos he lack technical ability even if i,m opportuned i wil perform beta than him
Pls take it cool, i have told you never to expect anything good from this Amodu lead team. Pls beware of high bllod pressure. Let it be for Lulu and his NFF. Let Lulu know that we are going to take him for his word so he is better ready to sink with his coach. You never seen anything yet lets see how hw is going to beat Benin and Mozambique. I know Amodu knows his limit but its this stupid Lulu that gave him this problem. Pls how much is Amodu’s salary, you never know may be Oga Lulu dey take some “kick back”. For all enemy of Nigerian football progress, it will always be sadness for them just like they gave Nigerians yesterday.
Shame on Amodu! This is a disgrace of the highest order. I don’t know why Yakubu Aiyegbeni should be fielded when it is obvious that he is off form. My advice really is to look inward, I mean, Nigerian league and pick people that will truly represent our dear country.
Pls take it cool, i have told you never to expect anything good from this Amodu lead team. Pls beware of high blood pressure. Let it be for Lulu and his NFF.

AND TO THINK THIS WAS THE SAME OBASI THAT AMODU WANTED TO DROP. EVEN ENERAMO WOULD HAVE DONE BETTER THAT AIYEGBENI WHO I GUESS WAS INCLUDED COS HE’S FROM THE SAME PLACE AS AMODU. AND WHAT IS THIS OBSESSION WITH MOHAMMED YUSUF WHO IS NOT HALF AS GOOD AS CHIBUZOR OKONKWO.
IS THIS MAN(AMODU) ON A MISSION TO SELF DESTRUCT??????
Your tactics and selection made you fail. Your averseness to friendlies has finally caught up with you. Your luck has run out and your time is up. How can you not learn from history? You fumbled in Mali 02 and you are fumbling galantly in Angola. Although we qualified for the world cup by luck? you have not failed to heighten our anxieties.
I will rather fail in South Africa with Siasia than you being at the helm of affairs. Together with Yakubu/Nwaneri/Muhammed/Kanu/Olofinjana we don’t want you on the plane to SA.
Why are people blaming Amadu? I will be the last person to do that.For how long do we continue to say the same thing that is not new to any of us? We have talked! we have prophesized to the extend that all the prophesies came to past before nation’s cup commence.I only pity Nigerians that expected miracle against the Egypians.We all known the technical deficiency of the coach.Even a year old baby is aware of this.To shorten my comment,Amadu is an imposed coach by certain group of people that felt that they can override the voices of 150 million Nigerians.What am I saying here? People are heavily behind this man and these set of people-Lulu and co undoubtedly have vowed to keep Amadu as eagles coach whether good or bad.So,as it is,it will only make sense to get rid of those behind him.If you want to get rid of Iroko tree you uproot it completely to remove the roots that hold the tree.Nigerians,why not seek for the heads of NFF to redeem the image of our national team.Calling Amadu different names will not do us favour when Lulu and CO have harden their hearts and destined to stand against the Will of Nigerians.They are succeeding in getting their objectives right while many Nigerians are suffering from not being able to enjoy the expectation of their dear eagles.Afterall,the name of Nigeria in the world of soccer has been deleted.
FROM ITALY
WE NEED A GOOD COACH NOW OR WE FORGET THE WORLD CUP! IF I AM AMODU, I WOULD HAVE INVITED STANLEY OKORO FROM THE U-17 TEAM. THAT’S THE KIND OF PLAYER THAT CAN PLAY BEHIND THE STRIKERS. BUT, HE HAS NO BALLS TO DO THAT!! SHAME ON NFF, SHAME ON AMODU AND SHAME ON THE PLAYERS THAT WERE NOT FIT AND STILL WANT TO PLAY!!!
Amodu is just a clown. His substitutions were wrong. What was Yakubu still doing on the field? Amodu need to go. His ideas belongs to the 80s. Please let him go
The problem I have with this so called Lulu and Ogunjobi is the way they insult about 75% of soccer fans who having been clamouring that Amodu is outdated to be a national team coach by giving him a jeep and two million naira added to that they confused everybody by their analysis that he never lost a match in 13 years. Well the wind have began to blow, to uncover the chicken bottom.Amodu drop inform defenders and pick Nwanneri and muhammed, to add salt into an injury he benched chidi odia and field nwannri what a blunder, and now he refused to take the blame. What a dummy we have as a coach,Lulu will bury his head with shame after the nations cup.
WE SHOULD MAKE PROVISION FOR THREE COFFINS BECAUSE AMODU, LULU AND OGUNJOBI ARE DYING AND SINKING TOGETHER. I AM DEJECTED.
So called Super Eagles are disgrace to the entire nation, because Egypt are Local League players while Super Eagle can make an impact because they have no pattern. we can only win Nation Cup by putting the right person at the right place i.e from the Coach, the entire midfider while NFF lack administration and the coach has no match pattern.
Don’t know why everyone is complaining. Did anyone really, I mean really expect anything from this team? We have all known for how many years now that this team and the coach have a problem. We just keep denying to ourselves and continue with our wishful thinking and giving God unnecessary work of granting obviously hopeless prayers. This is just the beginning of more disaster in our football, our whole country is a laffing stock of the whole world and fellow africans, in the last one year our public image has become almost irreparable. I laugh when people say we can qualify from our World Cup group, with the speed of South Koreans and the organisation of the Greeks, just forget about the Argentines.
Football is the least of our problems but at least it can put a drop of water on our lips in the long trek to our self actualisation. Lets forget about this team (except for Osaze), Mikel, NFF and Amodu believe me you’ll be much better off.
I wonder why everybody is so furious about yesterday’s result. It is obvious that SE will not run let alone fly in Angola with Amodu in charge and fielding players that are not fit or match rusty! Beckham joined AC Milan on loan just to be in top shape for WC that is due in 5months. When was the last time Yobo and Yakubu played any top game for Everton to justify their automatic inclusion in SE’ starting eleven? Nigeria will struggle against other teams in the group and might go through the back door again with the help of Egypt while the fans will as usuall have their heart in their mouth. Please let fans stage another ” Go home Amodu rally” while we look for a better coach for the sick SE. But who will do that is the next problem! Honestly, Nigeria has turned into something else, SE is sick, coach Amodu is sick, NFF is sick, N’Assembly is sick, NTA, FRCN are both sick!!!!!! Mr President’ s sickness must be really contagious
Amodu Shaibu has taken our football forty seven years backwards. This is so because the last time Egypt beat Nigeria was over forty seven years ago. It is obvious that this man (Amodu) has nothing to offer our football. Those (in NFF) who are ‘splitting’ his salary (2.1 million tax payers money) with him, should get set to sink with him. it’s a shame. 1963 Egypt 6 Nigeria 3. 2010 Egypt 3 NIgeria 1.
The man no dey shame. How can a coach in this modern dey football replaced Uche in that crucial game. Think of what the combination of Ogbuke, Unsofor and Uche could have been in that upfront. The camel’s back was finally broken when King Kanu entered for Mikel. I thought the palace is better for the King than the pitch. His introduction finally crumbled the midfield. Why cant Yobo or Nwaneri covered for Taye any time he go upfront? I beg, Lets leave this matter for another day. Whatever we say, the arrogance in Amodu will not allow him to change. Better luck next time.
AMODU, SANI LUU,TAIWO OGUNJOBI, THE GLASS HOUSE OUR GOD IS STRONGER THE YOU THUNDER WILL STRIKE YOU DOWN YOU AN YOU PRESIDENT GOD IS JUDGING HIM FOR IS EVIL DEEDS YOU ALL WILL SINK TOGETHER
Amodu is techninically and fundamentally flawed… the man is pathetic… How can a coach openly blame a team for a failrue that was built on the coache’s deficiencies…I hope somebody will print off these comments and send to NFF or somebody initiate a poll regarding Amodu’s continous stay in the current position. For starter forumite who read this can vote accordingly. 1. Should Amodu stay…. (Please answer yes or No in your replies). I will count this and send the percentage response to newspaper houses and the government if need be.
AFTER THE NATIONS CUP, ABEG AMODU AND HIM BRODA YAKUBU MAKE DEM GO BACK TO DEM VILLAGE GO DEVELOP AM AND ALLOW US TO DEVELOP OUR GAME.
Just look at the Gabon boys that defeated the indomitable lions of Cameroun.If not all,most of them are underage and also play in their local league.All our young players such as Rabiu and others in the local league are wasting for the sake of giving chances to benchwarmers in oversea countries.Shame on NFF for its deficiency to differenciate between good and bad FROM ITALY
I just want to say that if this team should continue like this we will not win any trophy because how they played yesterday against Egypt was very bad, is this what we will play against Argentina. All our players do not impress the country. The coach should have started the likes of Martins,IK Uche,Nsofor,Odemwinge. Well i wish Nigeria a better luck next time and i pray that we will be capable of winning trophies next time.
Guys Any Blowing News Obafemi Martins is back in Europe to consult Wolfsburg Medical Crew because of his inflammation……. What a Disgrace Amodu went with Half fit Players to a tournament it is completement unacceptable and unbelievable in Modern Football.
God Save us
Guys Another Blowing News Obafemi Martins is back in Europe to consult Wolfsburg Medical Crew because of his inflammation……. What a Disgrace Amodu went with Half fit Players to a tournament it is completement unacceptable and unbelievable in Modern Football.
God Save us
Amodu should bury is head in shame… 1. had the players selected themselves for the nations cup, was it not his duty? 2. Why did he decide to play Yakubu for 90 minutes when we all know he’s not fit even when he’s fit he doesn’t score…..FUK NFF, FUK AMODU
Amudu can not exonerate himself from Super Eagle’s defeat in yesterday’ s African cup of Nations going on in Angola. As the coach, and leader he owns it as a duty to groom these boys technically and morally. i presumed that immediately super eagles scored , he would have stood up and pinpoint to these boys where they should cover. but he never did that rather he was standing like a moroon watching his boys foolishly. imagin featuring a player like Yakubu Ayegbeni for good ninety minutes and Yusuf , who to the best of my knowledge didn’t
make any impact at all . Mathin and Chidi Odia were sitting on the bench, why not Amudu introduced these two players to beefup the defence and attack
amodu is a coward. he does not know what he is doing,he always hide in the back of amockachi.i think he should be sacked immediately.i trust the foolish nff they will not sack him rather they would leave him there so that they would share the cheese with him .i curse the day nff and amodu were born.
Amodu should just return the Jeep given to him and should start preparing his handover note.
Let the truth be told. Amodu are you scared of Yark and Joseph Yobo? If you want to continue with this coaching stuff, you have to take this advice but if you fail to take this advice, you will always fail in this supper eagle. DO NOT PLAY JOSEPH YOBO IN THE CENTRAL, HE IS YOUR PROBLEM I SWEAR, GO THROUGH ALL YOUR TAPES, ONES HE MAKE DEFENSIVE BLONDER AS USUAL, THERE IS ALWAYS A GOAL, IF YOU MUST PLAY HIM, THEN PUSH HIM TO THE RIGHT FULL BACK.
TAKE MY INSTRUCTION AND YOU WILL PROSPER WITH THIS TEAM.
JOSEPH YOBO IS NIGERIA PROBLEM BUT WE FAIL TO SEE IT, I AM A CENTRAL DEFENDER, THE HEART OF THE TEAM LIES IN THE HAND OF CENTRAL DEFENDER.
i think it is not amodu fault but the players. if he has given hes word the players should abide to it. it is a pity dat mikel got to the goal only to be breaking a player twice instead of scoring,it was d same way obasi scored so let us keep on putting all the blame on amody
Amodu should be fired or he should be forced to resign.He lacks tactical ability.he cant read games.He is a liability to Nigerian football.Yussuf Mohammed,Yakubu Aiyegbeni,Obinna Nwaneri,Kanu Nwankwo,Uche Kalu and Vincent Enyeama should never be selected again or Super Eagles would continue to lose.
Its a pity we keep on going like dis,Wat does Amodu know abt modern football
R we planning to move forward like other soccer loving countries or not
Why should we continue circle around outdated old men dat knows nothin abt modern footballIf England upon all d good coaches dey ve in their country cld go to Italy to get a quality coash to give dem d rite results,y cant we out and no matter wat it takes get ourself a sound couch wt the rite technical ability to move our football forward,or even if we want to use our indeginous coach ,we shld think of some of our retired players dat player football at the highest level,& know wat it takes to compete at the highest level. Wat does Amodu know about competing at the hioghest level wen it come to football,where did he get the experience.Tell me how can a coah play two central defender dat r always prone to error in his central defend,am not a coach but I ca never make dat kind of mistake,how can Eyeigbeni just coming back from almost a yr injury & not even playing fully for his club be on the pith walking up & down for 90mins yet not replaced,not to talk of Chidi Ordia on the bench aregular in a good club den Yusuf Mohamed on the pitch
.Too much blunderts to mention
,Dat man is no coach,I blame NFFor who ever dat left Amodu there as d coach for the poor outing of the SE
Well I hope dey ve learnt their lesson,dat guy shld just step down after this Nations cup even if we end up winning the cup times two,we need to start looking for a coach ,not another old joker if we wish to make any impact or even get a point at the worl cup

Will Nigeria ever change? Just one defeat and it is “crucify him”.
If Amodu goes on to win the remaining matches and even the championship which is still possible, they will all rally round him just to take the glory.
Cameroon lost to a Gabon team that did not play and it will be business as usual tomorrow. Algeria lost to Malawi the other day and their camp is still united.
When are we ever going to learn to stop putting unnecessary pressure on our team? We lost to Egypt for God’s sake. A team that has been together for God knows how long, and definitely not in the league of Malawi and Gabon.
Eagles will go on and win their remaining matches to progress and if we put our defence in shape can challenge for the trophy from the matches I have seen and watched so far. Hope is definitely not lost.
Jay P
bonds of sticks calling them selfs nff went ahead and call a standing pole a head coach them the pole gathered sticks as SE , STUPID man that has no technical expirence to handel SE.NFF STICKS take note; we need LUIS ARAGONES who called the spanish football back to glory after they critizied him of droping Raul . we need a coach who dosn’t look at faces so that he can make use of our home based player and not players that have not even played for even total 30mins in their clubs from 2009 to 2010 is a shame . BRIB AKA AZU WHEN WILL YOU LIVE THIS COUNTRY : GOD PLS HELP US WE DEE FOR SHAMEOOOOOOOOOOOOO LULULULUUUUU HERE THIS STUPID MAN EGUJE NAHIM GO KILL UNA LIVE THAT OFFICE YOU LACK EXPERENCE OF FOOTBALL MANAGEMENT . GO AND DIE NO GIVE US HIGHPATENTION WE FANS LOVE THIS COUNTRY MORE THAN YOU . NA ONLY MONEY YOU LOVE NO BE OUR FOOTBALL YOU LOVE NA MONEY YOU LOVEOOOOOO
prince you are a deciver how can a coach stand by the pole for 94mins not even telling the players what to do. when i played school football the coach at least will tell you that you can not play for 10min without looking on him to know if their is something extra he want you to do. when player look at GAUDROLA BARCA coach ,Morinjo inter coach and other good coaches they will stand up and correct players to avoid big mistakes. AMU ODU did not even come near the line until after the match even when we need tactical game then you call him a coach . how many players there have first team shrit in their respective clubs . only Obasi, osazee, chidi odia , some of this fly egals have figthing sprit more than this sticks , how many dribling did ayegbeni, kalu ,mikel did only obasi and that is the goal
we should stop embarasing these guys 4 God sake. nobody will like 2 loose 10,000 dollars as match bonus but they couldn’t do anything 2 salvage the situation. l will agree that we paraded our best materials if not 4 injuries here and there. Then big name no dey play football again if Gabon could defeat Cameroon and Malawi whitewashed Algeria. We just need 2 pray 4 luck not ability n skills which other teams possessed as well. Leave Amodu alone and support indigenous coach
super eagles is a disgrace to the entire country cos they lack of team work they are not tactically OK please we are all shame in s Africa and other country when Nigerians are i dont know what yobo nwaneri yusuf mo hammed taiwo yakubu are starting our line up instead of them watching for the bench please we are getting tired hear in other country.
tell me how many coaches in Nigeria that has done what Amodu has done 4 Nigeria football right from BCC to 2002 world cup to 2010 world cup qualification matches. Amodu grabed bronze medal in 2002 nation cup in Mali but was crucified and Eguavon Austin grabed d same bronze in Tunisia 2004 and celebrated wt Nigeria . Why do we continue to show spirit of hatred to Amodu. lets celebrated him as a successful coach in Nigeria as a whole. lf lets stand like other countries 2 their heroes to somebody like Amodu in time like this
AMODU IS A BIG FOOL
IT IS ONLY A FOOL THAT KNOWS THE TRUTH AND TRIES TO IGNORE IT AND SAYS NOTHING IS WRONG, HE WAS SCREEN ALTHROUGH THE MOPING LIKE A MARE SPECTATOR RATHER THAN A COACH SEEING HIS TEAM LOSING, HE SAID THEY MADE ERRORS WHO WAS SUPPOSE TO SPOT AND CORRECT THESE ERRORS MAYBE WE THE FANS ARE ABSOLVE THEM AS DESERT AFTER A DINNER OF SORROW SERVED BY CHEF AMODU
IT IS ONLY A FOOL THAT KNOWS THE TRUTH AND TRIES TO IGNORE IT AND SAYS NOTHING IS WRONG, HE WAS SEEN IN OUR SCREEN ALTHROUGH THE MATCH MOPING LIKE A MARE SPECTATOR RATHER THAN A COACH SEEING HIS TEAM LOSING, HE SAID THEY MADE ERRORS WHO WAS SUPPOSE TO SPOT AND CORRECT THESE ERRORS MAYBE WE THE FANS ARE ABSOLVE THEM AS DESERT AFTER A DINNER OF SORROW SERVED BY CHEF AMODU
AS FAR AS I AM CONCERNED AMODU IS JUST A NONENTITY WHO SHOULD RESIGN AND APPLY FOR A COACHING SCHOOL BECAUSE HE ABSOLUTELY KNOWS NOTHING, NO MATTER WHAT TURN AROUND THE SUPER EAGLES MAKE IN THIS TOURNAMENT IT IS JUST BECAUSE OF MERE DETERMINATION AND FOR SELF PRIDE. HE KNOWS NOTHING AND WILL ALWAYS BRING FAILURE. LETS BE WISE AND START THE SEARCH FOR A NEW COACH NOW TO AVOID A WORLDWIDE DISGRACE IN SOUTH AFRICA.
My brodas, when the foundation is faulty, what is going to become of the errected structure? Amodu and NFF is the foundation while the so called Eagles is the structure. If you need rehabilitation then it has to start from the glass house down to the coaching crew and finally super eagles. My problem about Nigeria is that they base everything on prayer, for God sake, God will not come down to restructure NFF. We will have to do that ourselves. Let us form a Universal Fan group and move ‘n’ mass to the Glass house to flood them out. Football is the only fun we derive pleasure from and they are spoiling it for us. Amodu is simply Mumu. He doesn’t know anything, He was standing there confusely while his Egyptian counterpart coach was busy changing partern to beat the Eagles. In short, we need a change now, tomorow might be tooooooooo late.
Amodu so this your so call close door training was to deliver us to the Egyptians abi? no team work even the goal we got was individual performance which does not come every day, but we need team work, what did he teach this boys in his close door training.
lets hope amodu has taken hie corrections and do his best in the next game and make sure we are not disgraced in this ANC l wish the supper eagles all the best…….peoples is just a game and someone must win……….CHEERS
Ladies and Gentlemen, enough of the critizing, now lets start prophesing. I see a NIGERIA VS EGYPT FINAL coming. Judging by what i have seen so far in the Nations cup, nigeria can still get to the final. Ivory coast are nothing special, and so is Cameroun who has just lost to Gabon and Ghana are nothing without Essien. http://www.sportingwithfaith.blogspot.com
Did some say Yakubu, thats not his name its FATKUBU, Amodu is a straight ignorant PE teacher, thats all I blame that goat smelling Sanni Lulu for all these shame, the entire NFF and PTF was ready to change him out but the donkey lover LULU was adamant about. Its Egunje all the way
how on earth! this stupid Amodu will exonerate himselve from the team poor performance,What is the Amodu’s work,if the team win you are going to take the glory,if the team fail you are also responsibly.My message to 150 million Nigerians is that unless we have a sincere and straight forward coach,our football development is going no where.
this man called Amodu carried injured,aged and arogant players to ANC with the aim of wining.I’m not surprised our poor performance against Egypt. I want u to watch this time they can’t play good soccer exceed 20-30 mins be4 lossing control.
SSSSSSSSSShhhhhhhhhaaaaaaammmmmmmmmmmmeeeeeeeee on you foolish Amodu. respect your foolish old self and go . it is not by force , we dont like u and we will continue to see u silly till u leave!
SUPER EAGLES IN UNDER A SPELL AND THIS IS THE SOLUTION!
my people i am not vey astonished with the event unfolding, but i think its not about talking and seeking the head that should roll on the floor. its not even about changing this coach and bringing that coach. bet me, give SE to mouridho, he would still fail woefully. something has to be done and i have discovered our problem and what the glass house need to do… its very simple. our soccer spell today is about the good good players that nfa used, debased and disgraced publicly, you and i know their names, those players delivered and deserved some honor but they disgraced and abandoned them when they should be honorly adored. some of them has passed away, some are still living with the injury and heavy heart, while some who has forgiven them came back to help in the NFF but they receieved a knock on the head and was kicked away again… we need to call them that are alive and offer them the honor they derseve after the NFF has tendered apology… if we do this quote me anywhere… our glamour football will come back, cos they still love the nation’s football as they are also nigerian. if we do this… even amokachi can take Super Eagles to the world and win acolades.
‘…exonerated himself…’ Hmmm! ‘…Amodu was silent over his decision to field players who have either not played competitive football for over a month or have not been regular with their clubs…’ Data for behavior/personality profiling. The signs people, the SIGNS.
And then the very crucial question:it all started going wrong after the equalizer;but what was amodu’s response to stemming the slide? Those substitutions…?
it’s funny how we’re sweating over a seemingly easy solution to an admitted problem.
A bad workman blames his failure on his tools.This man should just admitt that he is a failure ,he is got no magic in his kitty to take Nigeria to anywhere.
I think we should just be sincere enough to put sentiments apart. Amodu has lost touch with coaching. He lacks the technical depth requisite for the job of a national team. The result of the last match is not because of lack of players whether due to injury or whatever. It was because of tactical deficiency and lack of ideas. Whether Nigeria qualifies out of the group or not is not the issue, neither is it the yardstick for determining Amodu’s suitability to handle the team for South Africa 2010. Let it be put straight, Amodu is not a World Cup coach. No controversy.
@samsong,are u related to the guy,it is not a matter of indigenous or not,he is simply not tactically sound,abi we go die put for amodu.@cuks micheai,is amokachi not better than amodu
if Yar adua were given Pele,Maradona,Cruyff,Platinni,George Weah,Paolo Maldini,Okocha JJ,Seadorff,Vanbarsten,Zeneden Zidan,Batistuta,Segun Odegbami, Stephen keshi,Veron,and a bench that has Ronaldinho,Stoichkov,Ryan Giggs,Roberto Ayala ,Messi,Lampard, am sure this man will not know what to do with it he will loose against a team like squreels of Benin.
Amodu Shuaib showed us that he is a coach that is technically dead waiting to be buried, his line up against Egypt tells us that even if you give Amodu a team comprising of Vanbarsten,Roberto Baggio,George Weah,Ronaldinho, Cristiano Ronaldo,JJ Okocha ,Seadorff,Paolo Maldini,leonel Messi, Patrick Viera,Stephen Keshi, Frank Lampard,Patrice evra ,This my god forsaken ,no idea coach will make a mess of the team an loose to Benin.NFF and the Goverment of Nigeria Should please give Nigeria a mordern Day soccer coach. So that Amodu can resign peacefully and enjoy the kickbacks he has collected so far from Aiyegbeni,and other half baked footballers in the super Eagles.
A failure is a man who has blundered but is not capable of cashing in on the experience.Mr Mumu Amodu was given a second chance to impress but he Shattered the Opportunity given to him by the barowo’s in the glass house,now he’s blaming the players.Enough is enough stop blaming your ineffeciency on the players.Simply put,YOUR BEST IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH.
Why cany they even consider the youthful team that did us proud at the Olympics, if these were the set of guys playing @ this nations cup, they will be guaranteed of semi finals. but it is a shame on our FA when the spectators can see better.
Your best is not good enough,please AMODU JUST RESIGN AND SAVE YOUR SELF FROM THE ROD OF NIGERIAN FAN BCS IS NOT GONNA BE FUNNY IF WE LOSS THE SECOND GAME. I DON TELL YOU WOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wetin all of you dey cry for,Lulu,Ogunjobi,Amodu are sailing in the same boat,they either sink or float,you never see anthing yet,their target is the cup. they need the help of the ocean shark to land them to their promising land,Benin dey come ooooooooooooooooooo
ooops, what do u expect from a no team no coach and corrupt FA?
Amodu’s comments sounds just as idiotic as the man himself. He is just a desperate man trying to cling to the job hoping that luck will see him through. well let’s wait and see for time will surely tell that he is clearly inept and devoid of any tactics for the team. And my anger goes to the likes of Odegbami whom i consider my heroe but has for no good reason other than sentiments supported this foolish Amodu.
This comment is much expected from a vissionless and incompitent coach. Amodu spoke well. He exposed his absolute incompitency.
i think amodu shouldn’t be blame for all the woes.Those who hire him should take a major part of the blame.This is a sample of the disgrace we would face if amodu takes nigeria to the world cup.i believe the best option is to hire a world class coach like mancini or hiddink. if nigeria needs a good outing at the world cup, its better the NFF be fired and good set of people like felix anyansi or segun odegbami be elected as the federation president
Why should this blunt-headed man exonerate himself from the defeat to Egypt?
Reasons why he should not exonerate himself:
1. He selected the team
2. He left Adeleye out of the team, he left Odia and Echejile on the bench whereas Adeleye, Odia and Echejile are all better than Yobo, Y. Mohammed and Taiye Taiwo.
3. His technical abilities are nothing to write home about.
4. He don’t know how to make substitution.
5. Most of the players have not been playing regularly in their various clubs (Nwaneri, Y.
Mohammed etc).
6. He is so ignorant that he never wants to accept corrections.
Why then should he blame the players when all the faults are from him and his Godfather (Is it MUmu or Lulu they call him). What a stupid idiot we have as a coach! Can a blind man lead somebody who is seeing? Can a man who doesn’t know anything about coaching coach players like S/Eagles? This man should better leave our dear S/Eagles alone or more dangers ahead.
Amodu is just a stinking coward. who picked d dead woods as players to continue to cause us pains? Amoudu collects bribe from muhammed and Nwaneri thats why he dropped olubayo and adeleye and fielded them ahead of apan and odia. well, its good we lost so he won’t blame anyone when he is booted out for a competent coach.
Please PTF help us. Save us from Amodu. Have pity on our people. Haba, after Mutallab saga, then no president in the country for 50 something and counting days, we were looking forward to respite from the Nations Cup. Please Gov Amaechi do something. If na local coach Westerhof is one, if na foreign coach he is one too. How can you justify playing Yakubu for 90 min when he did not do anything. Amodu is out of his element, he cannot cope.
pls 4 heaven sake,give d super eagles job 2 samson siasia and his crew of kalika,they re sound technicaly.imagine,siasia deals with north africans team yey amodu fall preys 2 dem,if u dnt gv siasia d job,or go 4 hindink,i wii personaly come 2 abuja and plant bomb in glass house so dat d lulu,ogunjobi,ojoba,who took over power 4rm d former hearhbroker galadima in want 2 kill our only source of unity shld all die b4 nigeria my great nation dies,4 there money makink=g interest.b4 u knw it they will bring in a mumu white man like bertyvorg,and say is a foreing coach,enough 2 there foolishnes,niger can no more b fooled,GIVE US SIASIA NOW OR HINDINK OR NFF GO 2 HELL.can nff compare siasia olympic team 2 amodu eagles? even is last 1month uder21 team has team work. dan amodu chikens.in short NFF GO 2 HELL!!!!!!!!!11
My people, the simple solution I have employed is to pray the Super Eagles…..oh sorry, I mean Chickens out of the Nations Cup in the first round. This will ensure Amodu’s…sorry Mumudu’s exit from the national team. Everybody had better join me now or else we will overtake Zaire’s record at the world cup. Just imagine this team facing an Argentine side….ah, God forbid!!!!!
So you people are just knowing Amodu is technically not sound! But i thought you all said he qualified you for the WC and CAN! hmm! A coach that used 4-3-3 formation with 2 very poor wing backs. He is so arrogant that he will never own up that he is not sound. Always blaming the players.NFF should please change him before WC else expect 10-1 spanking from Argie.
Hi Bruno,I can understand your anger,but things must be put straight.Chief Odegbami has never supported Mumu Amodu,he has consistently voiced his opinion on the need to inject technically coaches like Siasia and Kalika to support the SE.He once said the nations cup will decide the fate of the MUMU AMODU.Odegbami is a well respected man that i will forever respect.
is Amodu a coach at all?why is he talking as if he is doing Nigerians a favour?or has he forgot he is been paid for the job?He keeps blaming the players for any slightest shortcomings.who invited and selected the players?if he did that, then he is solely responsible for any result.Look at changes he made, then answer my first question whether he is a coach.Siasia apologised to soccer loving Nigerians after the FIFA under 20 world.That is a coach who takes responsibilities.If Amodu can not take responsibilities, then he is not worthy to lead our national team.
Jay p. u talk like a stupid man. u want to pretend u re a saint. is Amadu Ur Senior Bros? of is He Sharing his Money with u? He deserve to ride on a dunkey bcos his idear and mentality is dat of 60s in yr 2010. he reasonning is as old as the Shilens. how can u give Amadu jeep. even the presidential task force has fail us in dat area.they is smting happening b/w yakubu And Amadu dat we dont Know. well my advice for Lulu Amadu and Co is dat they shil remember they must dance to the tune of the music they playing very very soon cos Nigerians re waiting for them.
Nigerians can talk and talk and talk. Amodu is not our problems but the system and preparation in everything we do.Firstly,the coach will not play this ball,we should accept defeat once in a while,that day may not be Eagles day,as we prepared to win any match likewise other countries.
With all the players presented that day and thru share luck if we win the match Nigerians will never see anything wrong.
We should face reality by improving our systems,providing standard football pitch allover local governments,encourage youths,motivate discovered talents.With all these in place we will have good teams among the whole stars in this country.
Pls pls Amo 14 we still Luv u. and we know u will listen to our advice. to save ur head , why not resign and leave that fool alone to continue with his old idears? go back to ur training programme and come back to pear sia 1 in 2010 world cup. if must go to the WC in sourth African with a local coach den its sia 1. MUMU AMADU
dose calling dat Nigerians shld spear Amadu, dont no any ting about football.inshort dere re as blind as Amadu himself. mumu ppl

Amodu carry go dont mind them they will talk talk and complain and nothing will happen continue doing what you know best nobody has never been reported to die of heart attack from your game plan?Afterall the president is not in the country and all the noise has not made any impact just try and get some of the best nigeria has produce in FEC to be behind you like Andoaka and the rest to be in your support and heaven will not fall.Nigerians are not above PTF that gave you a jeep recently to reward your good job who are nigerian by the way to say you are not qualify to do what you know how to do.I think the best for you is to win against BENIN and loose against MOZAMBIQUE so that you will have enough time to go and prepare for the ARGENTINES.you and NFF cant kill us we no nothing better will come out of you since LARRY IZAMOJE and SEGUN ODEGBAMI can see anything wrong in your outdated football knowledge.ive chosen not to watch any nigeria match and that was exactly what i did.AMODU carry go and put more effors
HOLD ON A SEC! did we always have a lot of people who saw through amodu like clear glass or reality just sunk its teeth? the scales falling off the eyes, huh?
big names, big loss,big lesson for nigeria expecially for NFF i hope they will sit down to think now b4 the world cup for a better coach for super eagles.

pls nff we need another coach not even giving AMU ODU test in another match , look when we played in Atlanta 96 we played more than 3 paterns against Brasil and win the match that is agood coach, with AMU ODU do you think we can win Spain now talk much of brasil ,AMU ODU 2002 record was because there is SE of US94 and ATLANTA sq like JAY JAY who can turn any match , kanu then, julius,etc now he AMU ODU can not asemble his own team due to his lack of curent experince he should live football if not he should go to coaching traning more in brasil , etc not going to england to do a traning which he did only 1day.. NFF PLS DISMISS AMU ODU ALSO LULU IS NOT WHAT TO BE NFF CHAIRMAN SO RESIGN NOW.FOR BACKING AMU ODU.STUPID
Amodu is a dull coach. He is just too dull to handle the national team of a country as brilliant as Nigeria. NFF is also full of morons am sorry to say.
Engr Temidayo Oladeji you dey among nff and AMU ODU you are looking for contract to construct a standard football pitch allover local governments after giving you the money you will not even buld a good one so do not coment if you did not know what to say
HI Engr Temidayo Oladeji ,don’t try to exonorate Amodu he is part of the system,He is even the problem! What we are saying is that he is not tecnically sound.He cannot read a match and make the right changes.You saw what the Egyptian coach did,after scoring the second goal,he brought in two additional midfielders to compact the midfield and render and strikers useless.Most technically sound coaches knows what to do at the right time.He is a MUMU
Amodu should not share the blame alone. The player should also share among the blames because our players are not ready to play.
I think we should dis ban this player and look for young blood that are ready to play compititive football for the nation.
Amodu selection is similar to Samson Siasia’s in the under 20 world cup.Trying to please Lulu and the northern sentiments.Personally I believe Siasia’s run as one of the prominent coaches in Nigeria Football is derailed.So is Amodu’s ,as I don’t think he will be reappointed ever.We now must start considering Obuh’s talent and watch out for his performance with the Flying Eagles
DISMISS YOBO AS CAPTAIN OF SUPER EAGLES !!The real CULPRIT for the Super Eagles is Yobo as a captain.None of you is thinking about this yet.He is very much like Amodu in being lacklustre in leadership,low keyed persona,often apologetic for grave on field errors and hardly to be seen marshalling teammates when a match is not progressing well.Check it out: since he was elevated to leadership, the fortunes of your team has been in decline.You must change him,as I think he has the disposition of being just the nice guy or nice captain.Compared with likes of Keshi,Chukwu he is a very distant low.A captain must be influencial,dominating,lead by example and NEVER give up even when not fully fit.Yobo is none of these and he should not go to the world cup as your captain.I bet you when Nigeria does recruit another coach, he will be changed.Yobo is TOO MUCH like Amodu in dullness,decision making,enthusiasm and the drive to win. A captain MUST influence on field play, discipline and cohesion to a match plan. Nigeria change Yobo as captain and the spirit of the super eagles will be released once AGAIN.See Hassan of Egypt and you will appreciate this analysis that I have tried to put across.
There’s no doubt in my mind that the national team – Super Eagles is playing well below it’s potential to say the least. Without mincing words we need coach Samson Siasia to assume managerial responsibility over the Super Eagles immediately after the Nations Cup if we’re to make an impact in the coming world cup in South Africa. He’s obviously the best we’ve got now and his record on world stage speaks for him.
Please if you share my opinion, join in the campaign for Siasia as new Super Eagles coach because we cannot afford to fumble in the world cup on african soil which we’ve long waited for. Pls continue this campaign on all social networks – Facebook, twitter…etc, NFF website, online newspapers and all sports media platforms until the our desired change is effected.
NFF MUST LISTEN TO NIGERIANS
Netherlands

HELO GOOD AFTERNOON MY FELLOW NIGERIAN FOOTBALL LOVER, I HAVE TOLD YOU IN THE PAST THAT THE RUBISH AMADU IS NOT OUR TEAM-COACH, HE IS A POLITICAL INSTRUMENT TO THE GLASS HOUSE TO WASTE,LOOT AND MAKE AWAY OUR MONEY, DON’T EVER AND EVER EXPECT ANY BETTER RESULT FROM NIGERIA FOOTBALL UNDER THIS FAKE-AMADU. THE GUY IS A SILENT KILLER, BLOOD PRESSURE PRODUCER- BPP, BYE TILL SATURDAY 16/01/2010
AMODU SURELY NEEDS A BOSS!!!
From my understanding,the present super eagle players have already became old.I am refering to the way they played mare particularly to the Nigeria Egypt match.Honestly speaking,the position of Taye Taiwo leaked seriously to the extent that it created a woefing three goals .For this reason,i suggest that he should be benched in Nigeria Bening encounter.
