History: How Sunday Olisheh Kicked Out Vincent Enyeama From Super Eagles In 2015

By Adewale Ajayi

Sunday Oliseh had to drop his jacket in anger spoiling for war with his captain, Vincent Enyeama over irreconcilable differences. No it shouldn't have come to that. Why invite him in the first place if you don't want him? Or better still why not issue a press release even before your camp opens in Belgium to tell the public that your new captain is Ahmed Musa. That would have saved us this embarrassment.

Reasons for this madness according to my source, is that Enyeama arrived camp on Monday after burying his late mother Lucy. He was surprised to find out that Oliseh has picked Ahmed Musa as new captain of the Super Eagles without thinking it was necessary to take him along.

Oliseh however expected Enyeama to come forward and explain to the coaches why he missed Nigeria's last match with Tanzania but reappeared in the French Ligue One donning the jersey of Lille Metropole without any formal or informal message to his National team coaches. Oliseh wanted explanations, Enyeama also wanted explanations and none was ready to bulge and that was how tempers flared and a mild drama ensued.

Oliseh is aware of the many antecedents of Enyeama, he is hellbent on instilling discipline in camp but must apply wisdom in doing things or he starts breeding a divided camp of players who can tly jeopardise his Nations cup dreams and aspiration and render him jobless in just a matter of months from now


DANGERS
This portends very severe consequences because like in 2011 under Siasia, players will take sides. There will be those like Mikel who is also pregnant with anger over his none invitation for the Tanzania match, and Odion Ighalo whose exclusion came with no concrete explanation.

These two could pitch camp with Vincent. There will also be those loyal to the former technical crew led by Stephen Keshi and those loyal to Oliseh. In 2011, Siasia fell out with the same Enyeama, Osaze and Mikel. All three were later recalled for the crunch match with Guinea in Abuja and their performance on the day left much to be desired as Nigeria failed to pick the 2012 Nations Cup ticket.

With a double header against Egypt coming up in March, the NFF must intervene and call a peace meeting between players and coaches in order to resolve all lingering crisis before the World Cup qualifier later this year and the cracker with Egypt in March next year. The truth is we cannot afford to miss out from another Nations Cup and if Enyeama or Oliseh want to be a c our wheel then both can give way.

Sunny should know that as National team coach, you don't discipline a player by going physical. He should know too that Enyeama remains Nigeria's captain and the Nation's most capped international and must learn to manage egos if he must succeed as National team coach.

Rumbling with your player in only your third match in charge does not speak well of you as a coach. Agreed, Enyeama is turning out a spoilt egg in the team but two wrongs don't make a right.

One expects that the matter could have been handled internally. Drawing the attention of the public or going as far as inviting security personnel to walk your captain out of camp is not the way out. Whatever the case, Vincent Enyeama remains Nigeria's most capped player and deserves some respect.

MY VERDICT
Enyeama is gradually becoming a soar grape in camp, he is turning out a very bad influence on other players and must be wisely eased out before he destroys the team spirit.

Enyeama it was in Namibia who instigated the No pay No flight protest before the Confederations Cup in Brazil, Enyeama it was in Brazil who led the revolt over the FIFA largesse the night before our second round match with .

It will also be recalled that the NFF almost banned Vincent following comments he made regarding the choice of Kaduna for the Nations Cup qualifier with Chad in Kaduna.

All these are just a drop in the ocean when recounting the many atrocities of Enyeama who like Oliseh during his playing days, is becoming an enfant terrible.

There must be a middle point of reconciliation, there must also be a point of taking very decisive decisions. If Enyeama feels he is doing Nigeria a favour by wearing the National team jersey, me feels it's high time we organise a sendforth party and confine him into the history books.

And we're still suffering it till date, the exit of Enyeama from super eagles without having another good replacement will continue to haunt us.

Enyeama is irreplaceable

Your boss is your boss.
Take it or leave it.
Sancho back to Dortmund from Manchester United is case study.

Where the two of them con day now

If na ur time use ham well

You see that thing people call podcast... (laughs)

Anyway, it's good that someone re the story...

There are two sides to every story... Except on a podcast.

Hmm

Una go explain tire no evidence. Oliseh was arrogant nd the fruit of his arrogance is Francis Uzoho.

Everyone have their favorite

don’t give yourself high blood 🩸 pressure because of Nigeria super eagle me I no de watch their match.

Oliseh is still one of the Most educated Ex-Nigerian player

He just takes discipline to the extreme and he never got over how he was butted out of the super eagles team after Mali 🇲🇱 2002 AFCON and missed the Korea/Japan World Cup

Ok

Speechless

Damnit

Oliseh that was arrogant as a player, come de form disciplinarian as a coach. Since that time till now, Super Eagles never get goal keeper replacement for Enyeama.

Leadership failure of a braggart coach

My own is God go punish that oliseh

Wahala

Yet we did not qualify for Afcon that year. Two bulls can't drink water from the same bucket, they will lock horns. That is the case of Enyeama and Oliseh.
2 years ago, when Oliseh declared his readiness to coach the super eagles a second time I know he is looking for the wrath of fans.

Oliseh don use him old currency buy market from bloggers.

You can't give what you don't have. How can someone like oliseh instill discipline in his team when he himself is extremely indiscipline. Abi no be the same oliseh that once removed his boot and knocked it on the head of a fellow player in a live bundesliga game? The same oliseh that once belonged to the so-called 'mafia' in the super eagles?

Enyeama too was too full of himself. Because of the issues he had with his coach and NFF, he decided to abandon Nigeria when the country needed him most. He probably thought all Nigerians will come, rolling on the floor, begging him to return back to the super eagles. Unfortunately for him, his career started taking a downward steps right from the time he left super eagles.

Both of them, where are they today? That's why it is good to always consider tomorrow before taking any serious action.
Today no be tomorrow.

.

Both of them were wrong

Na WA o

Ustec:
Your boss is your boss.
Take it or leave it.
Sancho back to Dortmund from Manchester United is case study.

A boss with result or a boss that produces failure and ended up losing his job till date?

I done check net tire wetin diz oliseh play wey dem make am super eagle coach... D only tin I found was a shoot outside 18box in 1998...oliseh is mad na him put us into diz uzoho wahala

So, what was that gibberish that Mikel wrote the other day about Oliseh picking on Enyeama for no apparent reason?

You see, most times when people run to the media to cry wolf, it shows that they too have a lot of skeletons in their cupboard. Mikel should focus more on life after football rather than continue to attack our ex-stars. He (Mikel) too suffers from a deep-rooted envy of not living up to the reputation of wearing Nigeria's prestigious Number 10 Jersey. Jay Jay we know, Wilson Oruma we know. Mikel (the back er & ball guider) we don't know.

That guy likes being controversial all his life.

I used to like Oliseh but the day I watched him being interviewed by a journalist, I was surprised Oliseh is temperamental and that kind of a character cannot be a good manager.

Sunday Oliseh dey form disciplinarian
