, I have begun to doubt the capacity of Éric Chelle.
You're praying for the Super Eagles to qualify in the World but also pray that they should not qualify because definitely they give us heart attack. So preferably they should just stay at home. The selection of the recent two matches by Eric Chelle was not good. He would have used the normal players and only bring in like 2 or 3 of the home base players.
But some of the ex players said they didn't blame the coach but the players. All that is not the issue now, Nigeria should just forget about the tournament this time and prepare themselves in the next tournament. They can't do anything again. Finidi came and sidelined some of the good players and suffered defeat. Eric came abandoned the current players and use home base which was hand picked by the assistant coach from his National Team, Remo Stars boys.
We shouldn't be condemning our country like that and even if they haven't been doing well in international competitions that is no reason to pray they don't qualify. It will be bad if in Africa Nigeria that produces good players don't participate in this Tournament. Regardless of how they make us feel it's still a good thing to see our own people participate, sometimes a team that struggles to qualify end up surprising people. Nigeria is our country and you should always have their back no matter how they keep disappointing and pray one day things will get better for them because I believe they will get better one day.
If they don't qualify this time no worries they should work harder and qualify next time. The mistake was not using the players abroad, you can't compare the qualities and exposure with that of home boys but I believe he saw what he wanted to see.
