Super Eagles’ job most difficult – Peseiro

Immediate past Super Eagles technical adviser, Jose Peseiro has declared that coaching the Nigeria senior national team is about the most difficult job for any coach, reports owngoalnigeria.com.

The Portuguese spent 18 months as coach of the team and after leading them to the final of the Africa Cup of Nations he announced he wouldn’t be renewing his contract. He further turned down the option of extending the deal offered by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) due to a disparity in what the football house proposed as salary and what he wants as his pay.

Speaking on his time as coach with the Super Eagles, Peseiro said that the job could easily pass as one of the most difficult to have, because of the ever-demanding teeming fans of the team.

“It’s not a job for everybody. You really don’t know what to expect at the job. One minute you are doing well and in a flash, another person is questioning how well you are doing. We had our best AFCON performance in 11 years, but we still have people not happy about how we got there. The fans want to win everything and in style. A very difficult job it is,” Peseiro said.
