“The talks where there for the Nigerian job, JJ Okocha was backing me but you know when South Africa and Nigeria is in the same group its not too nice because I am patriotic also but work is work” Pitso Mosimane on #SportsNightAmplified pic.twitter.com/PJAk5MZoU5

Mosimane pinpoints reasons for Super Eagles’ struggles
Speaking further about the Super Eagles, the former Al Ahly and Mamelodi Sundowns manager revealed what he believes to be the reason why Nigeria continues to underachieve, saying, “Those guys are top talents in the world. But Nigeria struggles, in my opinion, they struggle with system, the shape of how they play.

“The problem is when you have too many good football players, it’s nearly the same as Brazil at the World Cup. You know when you have too much talent and the coach doesn’t even know who to play and where to play them, the coach is impatient when the game is not looking good and you make changes just because you have somebody on the bench. There’s no patience.”
There have been no other reports about whether or not Nigeria will consider the ex-Bafana Bafana boss to take over from the reportedly departing Finidi George as they look to salvage what is left of their 2026 FIFA World Cup campaign.
