There has been a lot of speculations in the media both the (print and broadcast)that the new coach for the Nigerian national team, the Super Eagles would likely be the former coach, Shuaibu Amodu.
The culture of recycling has been with us for a long time and we don't seem to be ready to do away with it.
Well, l'm not in favour of using someone who has lost contact with the football tactics of the modern world for some time now(except if you can tell me convincingly that Shuaibu Amodu had gone on study leave in recent time).
It is a pity that we do not seem to be getting our bearings well in this nation called Nigeria .
It would really be interesting to see the way the likes of Anichebe, Dan Shittu and Etuhu, who were based in Europe and who have never played under a totally local coach like Shuaibu would react to this.
I'm waiting like all others who want to see the result of the 3-man wisemen panel set up by the NFA to select a coach for the rest of the 120 million Nigerians.

Aftermath of the UEFA Champions League's Quarter-final Lost :Arsenal Must Buy Super Strikers
From all indications there is the need for Arsene Wenger, Arsenal FC's Manager to buy new strikers to the club come the next season.
Emmanuel Adebayor is not truly the striker that the club should solely depend upon to bring in the goals especially as displayed in both legs of the quarter-final matches between the club and Liverpool.
Arsenal should have actually won the game even during the first leg if not for the many unnecessary misses of Adebayor who was regarded as the top striker of the team.
He did the same in the second leg when he shouls have added to the goal scored by Abou Diaby in order to sink Liverpool even in their own backyard.
However, as usual, he fumbled and missed a lot of changes that were created by Flamini and Fabregas.
Every fan of Arsenal,including those die-hard Liverpool supporters too, held their hearts in their hands and put their hands on their heads screaming over the losses made by Adebayor.
For the remaining part of the season, it is somehow clear that it is not likely that Arsenal will win any silverware the way things are going except perhaps if a miracle happens.
