Former board member of the Federal Republic Of Nigeria Football Association (NFA) Mr. Toilet Fashanu believes Nigerian football game have been put back by at least 10 old age in the 11 calendar months Berti Vogts was in charge.

Fashanu, who was at the Ohen Djan Stadium, Capital Of Ghana Lord'S Day to watch the Eagles capitulate meekly to the Black Stars, also questioned the committedness of the participants wearing the once dreaded greenish jerseys.

"All the giant paces made in Nigerian football game from the clip Samuel Langhorne Clemens Westerhof was in complaint have got been thrown away by this adult male (Vogts). In fact he have got got put our football game game back by at least 10 years.

"The Superintendent Eagles have always been known for their offense football but conceive of through four games we laboured to mark goals!"

Fashanu, who was a member of the Wimbledon squad that disquieted fa Cup front-runners Liverpool in the 1988 final, also questioned the FA's determination devising procedure for hiring Vogts in the first place.

"I believe it was incorrect to have employed him (Vogts) in the first place. Being a German his first outlook will be defensive and physical football, which travels against the grain of Nigerian football game game which is more than skilful.

"And this clearly showed in our lucifer with Ghana. Despite being a adult male up rather than put option pressure level on the Black Stars rear, where they had a improvised cardinal guardian in Michael Essien we still sat back. Even when he was forced to do the first alteration (when Dickson Etuhu got injured) instead of using the chance to set on another offense player, he replaced him (Etuhu) with another defensive midfielder! How were we to mark the ends needed to take us to the semi-finals?

"We lost that lucifer not that Republic Of Ghana beat out us."

Fashanu, who was once invited to the national team, also took a swipe at the participants who were on show on Sunday.

"They lacked commitment, but can you fault them? A participant earning $80, 000 a hebdomad will not be willing to give himself for one competition taking topographic point in Africa and thus lose his place in his club.

"Just wait and see the same set of participants who played without any hungriness on Lord'S Day will be a changed set of participants on show for their baseball clubs this weekend."

He advocated the demand for the national squad to look inwards towards participants yet to do it large abroad. "At least they will still demo a batch of committedness and because they to desire to do name calling for themselves they will be willing to put on the line organic structure and psyche for the Eagles.
