One of the most successful Super Eagles players , Austin Jay Jay Okocha has attacked Nigeria Football Federation over employment of the new Super Eagles Coach.
He said that he never satisfied with announcement of the former Malian National team coach over a brilliant local coach who is doing very well with good track records.
“ This is entire politics . I am glad to be here and I’m well convinced that my speech today may offênd many people, because truth they say is bitter” He said.
“ Super Eagles Nigeria may not win any trophy until the current NFF official’s are dissolved or reformed.
Appointment of new officials who know more about football, who have interest in football, who loves football, whom their lifestyles are football ⚽.
“ You can’t appoint politicians to manage football, they will turn it to politics and that’s what is happening today”, he added.
“ We have the best plãyers in the whole world but yet we have no trophy 🏆 to lay our hands!, not because of the players, absolutely not. When you change a coach you have changed a dream, a vision and a mission, in short you have changed a generation. Changing of coach isn’t just as it sounds to the ear, It harmful to the players, they will lose focus! Except the players on their own demand for a better coach. Before you consider changing a coach get some key players and interview them, seek their opinions because most of the players performance is based on the good relationship they share with their coach. “Once you remove their favorite coach you see them slack. It’s everywhere not only in football.
“ ÑFF should be re-formed and that will automatically ear us a trophy because we have the right players for the Job.
“ Politics should not be played in football.
I’m sorry to anyone who must have felt offended with my speech but I believe I have said my mind for the progress of the super Eagles .
