#Football News: Harry Redknapp Set to be Named New Super Eagles Coach

The Nigeria Football Federation appointed Salisu Yusuf as interim manager this week to take charge of two upcoming friendlies against Mali in Paris on May 27 and Luxembourg on June 1.
 
 
The UK Daily Star has exclusively reported that 69-year-old former Tottenham Hotspur manager, Harry Redknapp could be the new head coach of the Super Eagles in a shocking appointment.
 
But Redknapp, who was once tipped to become England coach, has been reportedly approached to take over the Super Eagles full time.
 
Daily Star claims that a source close to the team revealed Redknapp could be named as the next permanent Nigeria manager within a few days. He is largely untested at international level after narrowly missing out on the England job to Roy Hodgson.
 
Last month Redknapp, finished a two-game deal managing Jordan – reportedly a favour for the country's FA president, Prince Ali bin al-Hussein. Now Redknapp is free to prepare for Nigeria’s opening African Cup of Nations qualifier in September.
 
He has worked with ex-Nigerian internationals in the past, notably with Kanu Nwankwo and Peter Utaka at Portsmouth. They went on to win FA Cup with Kanu grabbing the winner.

Louis Van Gaal Ignores Rio Ferdinand and Paul Scholes Manchester United criticism

Image
Louis van Gaal brushed aside scathing criticism from the former Manchester United players Rio Ferdinand and Paul Scholes after the 2-0 Europa League defeat to Liverpool.   Only the heroics of David de Gea prevented a landslide at Anfield, although he was beaten by a first-half Daniel Sturridge penalty and a late close-range strike from Roberto Firmino. “It was shambolic ... so bad,” Scholes told BT Sport. “ Tonight was a disaster. Liverpool had a way of playing. United? I didn’t have a clue what they were trying to do. “United have spent £250m [under Van Gaal] ... they are sixth in the Premier League and have ended up in the Europa League,” added Scholes. “They should be competing with Barcelona, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich [in the Champions League]. United didn’t need a new philosophy, they had one for 20-odd years that worked,” he added in reference to the 38 major trophies won under Sir Alex Ferguson before he retired in 2013. Ferdinand was equally sc...
