Head Coach of Kwara United, Abubakar Bala has ‘hit the nail on the head’, stating emphatically that most Nigerian coaches are lazy.
The Niger state born gaffer stated this while fielding questions from members of the Sports Writers Association Kwara State branch in Ilorin on Saturday
“Sincerely speaking I don’t want to say this but I have to because most of us (coaches) are lazy. We believe in taking already made materials, we don’t believe development, we don’t believe in identifying talents,” he lamented.
Bala also flared at impatience of most of Nigeria football administrators, “Even from managerial level, we are not patient because if you give a coach a job now and you want instant result, which is difficult to achieve”.
Bala however said that he would continue to up his style of coaching in order to be relevant with the aspirations of his employers.
“Football is a scientific game. One needs to upgrade himself because the rules, approach and system changes everyday”.
The former Niger Tornadoes coach declared that Kwara United management led by Oladimeji Thompson has done well to motivate the team.
“Kwara United management have paid all match bonuses and salaries of players promptly.”
Head Coach of Kwara United, Abubakar Bala has reiterated his commitment to always abide by the rules of the game especially now that the round leather object is dynamic in terms of coaching and administration.
