Super Eagles coach Sunday Oliseh has finally laid
to rest rumours that he does not see eye-to-eye
with his former assistant in the Eagles Austin Jay-
Jay Okocha when he said; ‘’yes, I hate Jay-Jay’’.
A reporter had asked him to clear the air on
rumours that he does not see or stay in the same
room with the former playmaker of the Super
Eagles. The hall was like a graveyard when he
made the pronouncement. He looked round and
explained further. “I hate Okocha because anytime
we play Tennis, he beats me.
We played at the weekend at Sheraton Hotel and
he defeated me’’. He made light of the rumour that
started after he was appointed coach of the senior
national team. Many still believe that Okocha
stabbed Oliseh in the back when he accepted the
captaincy of the Eagles to the 2002 World Cup.
‘’We’re the best of friends and we played Tennis at
the weekend’’, he emphasised. Okocha is currently
the Chairman of Delta State Football Association
and Chairman of NFF’s Study Group.
Speaking on the Eagles, Oliseh said that he was
going to make the Eagles to play team football
combined with individual talents. ‘’If you remember
our victories in 1994 and 1996, it was based on
individual talents. But we do not have such
individual talents again. What we need to do is to
play collectively. That is what obtains in Germany
and Spain. It’s a lot of hardwork. We’re here to do
our best’’, he added.
