clash with the Super Eagles head coach Stephen Keshi with allegations of job interference.
Green, in a chat
after the Super Eagles training at the UJ Esuene Stadium in Calabar said, “it obvious
their his great harmony in the team and quite not surprise it’s the handy work
of our detractors which is not their first attempt to raise some dust before in
the camp as they have been doing that before now, we are technically focused at
working together for the progress of the game and to make Nigerians proud.”
The former
Sharks of Port-Harcourt scribe indicated that the technical crew and the NFF
technical committee are aware of the pressured laid on them ensuring no stone
is left unturned as to meet expectations of Nigeria.
Green added,
that Keshi is a mature, experienced person and simple team coach who knows
his job and aim at getting the best out of his players- watching the performance of
the players, you will be impressed with their attitude to play, strength, grit
and experience shown.
He further
hailed the efforts of the Keshi while assessing the ability of the domestic league
players in training and after over seven friendlies for the domestic team confirmed
that the availability of the domestic players will bolster options in various
departments and also built great confidence in the home-based players to succeed
but reckoned the players still lacked experience though have the pace and strength.
The Super
Eagles will continues training in
the bid to snatch the group’s ticket to ensure a place in the 2014 World Cup
billed to be hosted by Brazil.
The match
against Namibia in which nigeria ran with a 1-nil victors was keshi’s first competitive game for the World Cup and
first international home game after they played a goalless draw away to Rwanda
