With just three games to the end of the season, these are the clubs that might likely go for relegation. I am interested in Heartland FC of Owerri, which is coached by a former National team coach, Emmanuel Amunike. The state government invested heavily in the club, but it seems it might go down to the lower league. This was a coach that was recommended for the Super Eagles. I think he wouldn't have done well as a national team coach.
That’s a valid observation. Emmanuel Amunike came into Heartland FC with a strong reputation, but club football comes with its own unique challenges. Despite the government’s heavy investment, results haven’t reflected the expectations. It raises questions not just about the coach’s tactics, but also the overall management and player mentality. Coaching a national team is very different from handling a club in a tough relegation battle. Maybe this struggle is a sign that he still needs more experience at the club level before stepping up to the national team role.
