During Keshi's successful stints as head coach for the national teams of Togo, Mali and of course with Nigeria, Houdonou was a constant figure in Keshi's backroom staff.
Houdonou: Every coach has its own methods, and Keshi felt if Togo and Mali can excel in Africa with a mixture of local and foreign-based players, why not Nigeria that is blessed with a higher percentage of talents?
That was how we got Egwueke, Oboabona, Mba and Oshaniwa
PT: Some players said Keshi demanded cash for shirt before 2014 World Cup in Brazil
Houdonou : (Cuts in) Let people talk.
Rohr is a good coach, he is doing a good job with the national team, but to say there are no good players in the league is totally not unacceptable.
I believe if Rohr can give his local coaches the needed tools to scout, they will fish out good players from the league.
