Amokachi: Oliseh, Amuneke far better than Gernot Rohr

Ex-international Daniel Amokachi has faulted the decision by the Nigeria Football Federation to include a $2 million compensation clause in Gernot Rohr’s contract.

Amokachi, who was late Stephen Keshi’s assistant, co-led the Super Eagles to their third AFCON glory in 2013 and a round of 16 place at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil before he was given the boot alongside his superior.

The Atlanta ’96 Olympic gold medalist insisted that his former team mates—Sunday Oliseh and Emmanuel Amuneke could have done better as a national team coach if they were given enough time to groom the Super Eagles.

Rohr took over as coach of the team in 2016 following Sunday Oliseh’s resignation.

The Franco-German tactician guided the Super Eagles to qualify for the 2018 World Cup in Russia with ease but failed to progress past the group stage.

Rohr had led Nigeria to a third place finish at the 2019 AFCON in Egypt and was handed a new deal after the federation revealed their satisfaction with his performances.

“For the administration to bring somebody like Oliseh and not giving him time because he’s Nigerian and they let go,” Amokachi told Brila FM.

“To bring in somebody like Amuneke and not giving him time then they let him go. Then you bring a new coach where those two coaches are far better than him; pedigree-wise and portfolio-wise.

“But still, they gave the machinery a lot of money, $60 plus with all the bonuses, if they play two matches in a month, then you’re talking over $100,000.

“And then at the end of the day, you put a $2m clause on a coach that has never won anything. A coach that came from Burkina Faso to Tunisia then to Nigeria and you put a $2m clause, that’s the first I’m hearing such.

“If you were bringing Guardiola you can put $10m if he says he wants it because you know who he is; he has won laurels. But for a coach that has not done anything, not achieved anything and you put a $2m clause? There’s a lot of failure in that.

“I’ll not rate them (NFF) out of 10, but all these things I’ve broken down will tell anybody with common sense where I’m coming from.”

The Super Eagles qualification hopes for the 2022 AFCON in Cameroon has been left in the ice following their back-to-back draws with Sierra Leone.

Rohr’s side may miss out on qualifying for the continental showpiece should they lose their next two qualifying games.
