Not happy with Shaibu Amodu, you fire him. Even though he actually got you qualified.
Now that you have failed in yet another World Cup, the guns are out for Lars Lagerback. Is it just the choice of coach that leads to Nigerian ruin each time?
We just saw Aiyegbeni Yakubu miss an absolute sitter in the South Korea match that could have seen them through. Sani Kaita’s thoughtless jiu jitsu maneuver on Vassilis Torosidis had him sent off when the Super Eagles were leading Greece.
No coach, not even Guus Hiddink can govern such acts of self immolation.
Instead of dishing it on the coach, a grown up should remind some of these players of their own culpability.
