Former President of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) says the new Super Eagle coach Eric Chelle is a coach with a wonderful record.
He made this known in an interview on Arise TV, where he stated that Chelle will be coming with a team of backroom staff, a set-piece specialist, match reader, and goalkeeper coach.
“I got a lot of calls when he was announced. I shook my head because before now, I had already done my intelligence about Eric, and I came to realize that some people do not know him.
“They are just basing their argument on the colour of his skin. They are just being judgmental about the colour of his skin because he’s a black man not the content of his targets and his deliverables.”

“He’s got a wonderful record. When he was in Mali, if you you at Mali the last two years they have been very consistent, consistent in the quality of their play.
“Based on what you have seen, statistics from Mali, out of 22 games, he won 14, he drew four (five) and lost just three, which shows that he is an offensive coach and Nigeria, traditionally, we are an offensive team.
“That has technically, automatically, and organically prepared him for the challenges to come.
“He’s not just a coach, he’s coming with a retinue of backroom staff – a set-piece specialist, match reader, goalkeeper coach.
“He’s also going to be supported by a retinue of backroom staff provided by the NFF Technical Department, so it’s not just him. “

When we win our March qualifiers in some style, all dissenting voices will realign their opinions.
Before we go any further,Mr Pinnick, notwithstanding whether he’s a good coach or not, have you and NFF put a reliable plan in place to pay him and his numerous backroom staff? Or is he going to work for you people for free again?
