Ahead of the 2018 World Cup
qualifiers billed to begin next month, former
Super Eagles winger Tijani Babangida says
the new technical adviser of the team, Genort
Rorh is not to blame if Nigeria fails to qualify
for the championship.
Babangida, who served as the personal
assistant to former Super Eagles Coach,
Sunday Oliseh, said Rorh may add little or
nothing to the team because his coming was
rather too close to the qualifiers.
According to him, Nigeria is not the favourite
to top the group which also has number one
African ranked nation, Algeria, four time
champions Cameroon as well as 2012
champions Zambia.
“We are not the favourites to qualify because
even on paper most of the other countries in
the group are ranked higher than us. To
qualify for the World Cup a lot goes into it
including the well-being of the coach and the
quality of our players at the moment.”

However, Babangida advised the Nigeria
Football Federation (NFF) to ensure that they
provide everything necessary to ensure that
the players be at their best as they go into the
qualifiers...
.
He equally charged the technical crew to
ensure that they invite players based on their
current form to have any chance of booking a
place at the world stage.
