Bringing Wrong Coaches and Players to the National Team Is Responsible for the Recent Poor Showing - Daniel Amokachie

 

Former Nigerian forward, Daniel Amokachi has blamed the Super Eagles woes on the appointment of wrong coaches as well as calling up wrong players into the national team by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF).

He made this known on the backdrop of the team’s poor showing against Portugal in an international friendly game, where the Super Eagles lost 4-0.

In an interview on Channels Television on Sunday, the former Everton star stated that it’s too early to allow the current Super Eagles coach, Jose Peseiro go, saying that he should be provided with help wherever he needs it.

Amokachi also advocated that the coaches look inwards and pick local talents for the team, saying that it is a philosophy that has worked for the team on multiple occasions.

“When you look at the Portugal game, that tells you that we don’t even deserve to be at the World Cup.

“There are one two three different angles that you have to look at it, bringing in the right coach, bringing in the right players and get the right environment to play at.

 “We always bring the wrong coaches to handle the national team; we always bring the wrong players,” Amokachi said during a Channels Television broadcast on Sunday.
