Parallax Paradox: Hodgson, Amodu, Dalglish & Siaisa?

What is the relationship between recent events at Liverpool FC and the Nigerian Super Eages?

Well, before now, you might be excused if you mistook the current Liverpool squad for Birmingham! The players were all crap the pundits said. Benitez had spent millions on crap players! Lucas was crap, had two left feet! Martin Skrtel was an apology for a center-back and Glen Johnson could'nt defend for toffee!

You would not know, listening to the english media pundits that the team provided 13 players at the world cup, including 4 at the final game!

All these to provide alibi for a clueless Roy Hodgson, who has no achievement of substance in 35-years of coaching!

Today, the lie was laid bare at Old Trafford. There was more substance, technically speaking in 30mins of Liverpool's football under Dalglish than the 6months of the clueless Roy Hodgson put together!

Conversely, the Nigerian Super Eagles have been repeatedly labelled to be of average talents; either benchwarmers, playing in crap clubs and even crappier leagues; over aged or overweight. All these to provide alibi for a clueless Amodu, who had done such wonders in football, and like Hodgson, had won titles in a forgotten decade! Nigeria was said to be overachieving and that it was a miracle that Amodu was achieving all these results, never mind the quality of the opposition..You only play the team in front of you his misguided supporters said....

I suspect that like Dalglish's Liverpool, the Super Eagles under Siasia will lay bare the lie that was Amodu's tenure.

  1. And you base this grand assertion on your mere suspicion?Please allow Siasia the privilege of his first game in charge.Raising the bar too high is creating problems for Siasia before the first ball is even kicked on the training ground.
