Sunday Oliseh Replies Critics Calling For His Sack Over CHAN Failure
Published: February 07, 2016
Super Eagles coach Sunday Oliseh has responded to critics who have been calling for his sack following the dismal performance of the national team at the African Nations Championship.
The former Juventus and Ajax Amsterdam midfielder has scored himself high, pointing out the Super Eagles have bean beaten only twice since he took over from Stephen Keshi and went on a ten-game unbeaten run before losing to Guinea in Rwanda.
“ I’ll like to remind you that this is the 14th game I have been in charge of the Super Eagles and we’ve lost only two, and only one official game, ” said Oliseh on his personal website.
“We’re still on track to qualify for the Nations Cup, we have qualified into the group stage for the World Cup, so where is this failure that some of our critics are trying to sell to Nigerians?
” Unless you mean that for Coach Sunday Oliseh and his crew to be successful they must win every match. Even the world Champions Germany are not doing that, talk less of us that is a brand new team that we’ve just started building just for some months now.”
Sunday Oliseh penned a three-year contract with the Nigerian Federation last July and has declared that he would be ready to walk away from the post if his employers are unhappy with his performance.
