Messi and his father to stand trial on three counts of tax fraud

This sad development is coming few days after he was cleared of the charges charges. According to Daily Mail, a Spanish court today confirmed that Barcelona talisman, Lionel Messi and his father Jorges are to stand trial on 3 counts of tax fraud that might even come with jail terms. The Judge rejected declined the request of the public prosecutor to try only his father. He and his father allegedly created fake companies in Belize and Uruguay and also defrauded Spain’s tax office of €4m (now £3m) of unpaid taxes from 2007-2009.

Enyeama pictured leaving the Super Eagles camp in Belgium

Just when i thought somebody from somewhere will talk him into staying. Prolific shot-stopper, Vincent Enyeama is not mincing his words about quitting the Super Eagles team. Radio sports presenter, analyst and reporter, Oma Akatugba (pictured left in the second picture) who recently relocated to Belgium revealed on his instagram page that he, Mikel, Emenike and few other players tried persuading him to stay but the Lille goalie said he would not go back on his words.

The goalkeeper drove his Bentley car out of the Super Eagles camp in Belgium. Can imagine what is going on in the minds of other players, pain/sadness but life must go on. Oh! Oliseh. Let’s hope a miracle will happen soon.

Meanwhile, he had breakfast with his team members before leaving ;((

Why I made Ahmed Musa captain -Sunday Oliseh

Men’s national team coach, Sunday Oliseh has lifted the lid on why he stripped goalkeeper, Vincent Enyeama of his captaincy role and handed it over to Ahmed Musa. Speaking on Brilla radio, Oliseh said:

//
”I want a captain who is disciplined. A leader who can motivate other players. A player who comes to camp early. I want a young player not a retiring player as captain. And Ahmed Musa is that player. He is my captain. When you have a new government like our honourable president just came in, he’s picked his ministers. And you have your philosophy and you have your way of working.”‎

//
He continued, “As a coach I have looked at the team and I have looked at Nigeria going forward. We need a captain who will think of staying with Nigeria for several years to come, who is regularly in the front. And Ahmed Musa did a great job for us in Tanzania under very difficult circumstance. He is a very responsible player and he is the captain of the team. So he is the captain of the team, there is no question of a tussle.

//
“The fact that I would like to have somebody (as captain) who is thinking of playing now and not somebody who is preparing for retirement or thinking of life after-football. And I think it’s time we had peace and quiet around the Super Eagles. That is why I am glad that most of the players here are finding ways to work as a team because I get the feeling now that they are aware that they are representing 170 million people.”‎

Enyeama Vs Oliseh | The long-serving professional and the novice manager | By: Jide Alaka

At 101 caps for the Super Eagles and over 250 club appearances, Vincent Enyeama cannot be labelled a novice in any form or manner but Super Eagles coach, Sunday Oliseh, can be described as a novice manager, even though that description does not evaluate whether his actions are wrong or right.

The gently brewing rain that started last month escalated into a full-scale storm on Tuesday in Belgium as both Oliseh and Enyeama finally went frontal with their aggro and the Nigeria Football Federation president, Amaju Pinnick, had to step in before the whole episode descended into total chaos.

//

The issue of the captaincy

Enyeama took over the captaincy of the team after Joseph Yobo retired but he has been unable to feature for the Super Eagles since Oliseh took over the reins of the team. So in his absence for the qualifier against Tanzania last month, Ahmed Musa was named as the captain, in a temporary capacity, it was interpreted at that time.

At the team’s gathering in Belgium for friendly matches this week, Enyeama came late to camp – because of the burial of his mother, a death which prevented him from answering Oliseh’s first call-up. Apparently miffed at this insubordination, Oliseh was said to have named Musa as the substantive captain of the team – an issue Enyeama took offence with and asked the coach for an explanation on why he was being stripped of the captaincy. “I was surprised,” Enyeama told ESPN FC.

Enyeama continued: “I insisted on speaking because I felt that with the years of dedicated service I have given to the country I deserve at least the respect of giving my own side.

“But he [Oliseh] told me that either the whole team would leave the room for me, or I would have to leave the room for the whole team.”

The issue of decorum

While it has to be acknowledged that respect begets respect, it is more appropriate for the manager to show that respect beforehand. Because of the extenuating circumstances, Oliseh would have been best advised to keep his captain’s nomination to a time when he would have had a conversation with Enyeama, preferably away from prying ears and eyes.

//

But after the deed had been done, it would have been better for the Super Eagles coach to have informed the former captain that the captaincy would be taken away from him – unless it was on the spur of the moment decision. Even a retort such as “Skippo, let us take a walk” would have ameliorated the toxic situation.

From reports, which can be wrong, it was revealed that Enyeama interrupted the coach’s briefing. This was very wrong for Enyeama – he wouldn’t do that in Europe and Oliseh has the prerogative to choose a new captain for his team and this happens whenever there is a general makeover of a team and the need for the new manager to create a new line of structure.

But the situation should not have been allowed to exacerbate to the point where Oliseh called for security to throw the goalkeeper out of the camp.

The issue of leadership

What does this issue do for Oliseh’s leadership stand with the other players? He could be seen as being petty, and someone who does not listen to others or someone who believes he has all the answers. A leader, Dwight D. Eisenhower said, “get someone else to do something you want done because he wants to do it.” Yes, Oliseh could have all the answers but he must wisely show the path to his players so that they can all come to the same conclusions.

That is what is meant by all pulling in the same direction. The role the NFF has played is the good role of trying to reconcile the warring parties, even though the Super Eagles may invariably have lost the services of Enyeama, who wrote on Twitter that he had been thoroughly insulted and embarrassed by what transpired.

For Oliseh, he should take a cue from the experiences of coaches like Pep Guardiola, who ousted Samuel Eto’o, Ronaldinho and Zlatan Ibrahimovich from Barcelona. He would have paid the price of being sacked if results had gone against him but he ultimately succeeded because of his results. As one man said, the life of a football manager is thus, with a job, about to be sacked or sacked. Most of the time, the manager will carry the can for bad results but the players will stay.
