Under any coach.
But no team wil allow his players to go camp for two weeks.
Reason y the team needs to have phase camping in Europe Monday to Thursday for 2 weeks before going into any game.
Ooo no money ooo club wil not allow .
Some clubs wil if approach in time .
Reason getting a coach Early is good for proper planning.
Even Philip sokoto wil camp the eagles in Cote D’Ivoire den and flew in to win all games den .home and away .
Planning and strategy department of nff try this with afcon qualifers before going for world cup plan.those people in glass house did know history of Nigeria football again. It is only how to cut from dollar 180000 dollar budget plan .
They are not serious. Former Oga will teach them a lesson or two. They don’t even have a coach to prepare them to face an established manager like Rohr, the one they said that was too old at 63, is now sending them to doghouse at 75. They believe that only them can see the sky and that everybody owns them a living. Some of them are now begging the stupid NFF to go beg their failed Finito to come back to do more damage. Osimhen, Boniface, Tella and another one who said not to mention his name yet, have all said they will not honor their stupid local coach’s calls ever again to play for Nigeria until they employe a solid and a reputable coach for Nigeria. F@@k NFF.
you are right
I think if NFF did an excellent procedures on Super Eagles , they could make them an enormos and incredible team that can scare in team in Africa, these things as follows: they should hire veteran Franch coach Herve Renard, they should contact with dual nationality players to switch allegiance to SE just like Caleb Okoli, Dominic Solanke, Tosin Adarabioyo, Arthur Okonkwo, Ifeanyi Matthew, Michael Olise ; NFF must make overhaul on SE team just as to reorganize players summoning, NFF must make code of conduct on the players descipline and committment just as playing strong and enthusiasm football, early attendence to the camps when SE have national missions, repecting coaching crew and coaching crew instructions by players , NFF should send summoning letters to players clubs before three week from SE matches…
September looks far away, but we are already at the end of July (after next week). Before you know it we’ll be in August and still playing hide and seek with the appointment of a coach. How on earth would a new coach come in and perform well under 1 month?
My grouse is that the new coach will be meeting his full team physically for the match 4 days before the qualifier and may not have more than 2 full training sessions with them.
Yet we are meeting an historically sturbbon Benin and Rwanda team who have both had the same coach and core for over a year now.
Penny wise, pound foolish, NFF. To them, anything goes. No need for solid planning. Good results come by chance, despite recklessness, planlessnes, maladministration. Only someone afflicted with incurable insanity would contemplate winning a race with broken ankles and knees!
This is the much dreaded fall into nothingness.
