And they say naija no dey carry last. Too bad, must we always be seen at the bottom. Am sure if it was a foreign coach, we would have been among the top five just because he's an home based coach, someone that has qualifed a nation to the world cup twice is the least paid!, Amodu qualifies as a world class coach anywhere in the word. The sooner we stop these oyibo(white man) syndrome, the better, if Amodu was a foreign coach, he'll have entered the history book of Nigeria, and will always be used as a reference even in more than 20years time, and would be described as the best coach Nigeria has ever had. Giant of Africa indeed. Nigeria is fast losing it's self decorated, acclaimed grip as The Giant of Africa. **shakes head in scorn**
