The New Nigeria National Term Coach Demands More Seriousness From Players

Tom  Saintfiet, Nigeria New Coach

Prospective Super Eagles Coach, Tom Saintfiet has described the current FIFA Ranking as subjective and not a true reflection of the potential of the quality of players and the Nigerian team.

 The latest FIFA rankings released on Thursday  saw Nigeria plummet nine spots to 17th position in Africa and 70th in the world.

The Country’s ranking was obviously affected by the non participation in June’s Afcon qualifiers, after Chad’s withdrawal reduced to 3 the teams competing in Group G. Speaking with footballlive.ng , Saintfiet expressed optimism that the ranking would change once the Super Eagles get good results from a number of friendlies against good oppositions.
