Former Super Eagles forward Yakubu Aiyegbeni says coach of the senior national team of Nigeria Gernot Rohr adds nothing special to the team.
Yakubu was speaking on the backdrop of the Super Eagles poor run of form in 2020 where they failed to pick a win in six games. Worst still they let a four goal lead slip to draw 4-4 with Sierra Leone.
Although they are still top of their group in the race to be at the 2021 AFCON, Yakubu said it’s clear that the team need fresh ideas if they are not make any appreciable impact in Cameroon.
“ At the start the results were coming in and the team was brimming with confidence. Now it’s not the same and that is when you know the true worth of a coach. Sadly that’s not the case as the team relies more on individual talents than the tactics of the coach to win games “, Yakubu told Owngoalnigeria.com.
“ To qualify for the next AFCON looks sure but winning it is highly unlikely unless something is done to beef up the technical crew of the team before the start of the tournament”.
