<\/p>\nSpeaking with SportingLife, Rohr said he will take a few weeks to consider his future, after winning bronze at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations.<\/p>\n
The German also addressed some of the criticisms he has faced during his time in charge of the national team.<\/p>\n
\u201cI said that I would give my answer after the tournament but the tournament has not ended yet.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt still remains the final game to be played. I will need a little rest and think about it deeply with my staff, family and friends.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn our contract, it is very correct and fair play contract. It states that the NFF can stop it if they want and I can also end it if I want.
\nPerhaps I will, I don\u2019t know yet. I will think about it and in a few weeks, I will give an answer.<\/p>\n
\u201cI heard in some social media that they said I am too relaxed and that I am always smiling when I am on the bench.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey are wondering why a coach is so relaxed under pressure. I don\u2019t know.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou know I have experience and I have witnessed a lot of situations. I think it is not good for the players to have a coach that is under pressure who shows his stress while speaking to the players. The players will be stressed also.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are a relaxed team and also fighters. We never give up. We can concede two goals in a few minutes to halftime and we can say we have the courage to muster a comeback. I think I have the right philosophy and if you stay humble it makes our young players not to become proud.<\/p>\n
\u201cEverything is going so quickly. Right now John Obi Mikel is going to the end of his career with the Super Eagles. He had a very good attitude and he accepted to be on the bench and to be replaced even when he starts a game. It is a good example for our young players to stay humble all the time because football career does not take long.
\nThey must not forget how they started as players,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Rohr was appointed in 2016 and has one year left on his current deal.<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
