Thank you for sharing Nathan Redd. This what I think about it.... Wow, that is so harsh. Why are they so quick to fire Coach Barretto? This may be just a rumor. It may not even be true. But if it is actually true that EFF will fire Coach Barretto and hire Coach Keshi, it will be very unfair. Coach Barretto has only been on the helm for six months. That is not enough time to achieve a complete turnaround. We saw some promissing that given enough time, he will do a lot of good to the team. He showed faith on young talents which was unseen by previous coaches. I really hope he will stay on the job!!! Wanting to see Coach Barretto stay is not a knock on Coach Stephen Keshi, a great player and coach who knows our team very well. He beat us as a player and as a coach . He was the scorer of one of the goals when Nigeria beat our team during the 13th African Cup in Bengazi, Libya. And, he beat our team as a coach three times, two of his wins denied our team a chance to be part of Brazil World Cup....(one of his wins came in a friendly game) He is a great tactician who knows African football inside and out....As we know, he won African Cup as a player and as a coach...and his team had a great showings in this past World Cup in Brazil. He is a very respected coach in the World, yes inthe world!!! When they fired him the other day, I was really upset...I hope they wont fire coach Barrett. But if they decided to do so, there is no better candidate than the Big Boss, Coach Stephen Keshi!!
