The Super Eagles have ended the year as the ninth best team in Africa after dropping a place in the December ranking released on Thursday Nigeria ’s senior national team has dropped a place to end 2014 as the 43rd best team in the world and ninth in Africa according to the latest Fifa world ranking released on Thursday. Stephen Keshi’s men began the year on a shaky note as they dropped four places to 41st in the January no thanks to their 2-1 defeat to Mali in the African Nations Championship game, a tournament that has been upgraded to ranking status by Fifa. In February, they continued their slow and steady fall as they dropped six places to 47th. Super Eagles maintained the same position in March thanks to their goalless draw with Mexico in an international friendly. For the first time in the year, Nigeria moved up the ladder as they were rated 45th in the April standing. This rise continued in May as they moved a spot upward to climb to the 44th spot in the world and sixth in Africa – a mark they held on to going into the Fifa World Cup Brazil and also in the June version of the grading. Nigeria’s biggest progress came in July as they climbed ten places to 34th spot following their impressive showing at the Fifa World Cup despite their second round dismissal by France. In August, the African champions continued to mount northward as they were placed 33rd. Things got worse in September as they crashed four places to 37th position in the world and declined five spots in October and maintained the same position in November 2014. World champions Germany topped the final ranking of the year for the second time since 1993, while South American giants Argentina and Colombia finished in second and third place respectively. Algeria ended 2014 as the best team in Africa followed by Tunisia and Cote d’Ivoire while the Black Stars of Ghana were adjudged they fifth best team in Africa and are also ranked 37th in the world.

The technical director of the NFF has asked the Super Eagles trainer to leave after failing to take the African champions to Afcon 2015 Former Nigeria coach Shaibu Amodu has told Stephen Keshi to stop his demand for a new contract and quit after failing to lead the Super Eagles to the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations. The defending African champions failed to reach January’s Afcon after placing third in a group that included South Africa, Congo and Sudan. Amodu, recently appointed as Technical Director by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), said that the Big Boss should not expect the NFF to offer him a fresh contract. "Stephen Keshi alone will decide if he has a reputation or he does not have a reputation. If he has a reputation he will walk out of the job, if he does not have, he should stay like a beggar,” Amodu said. "To keep Keshi is bad precedence because when Samson Siasia failed, we came on air to tell the whole country that he had failed [and] that he should go. “President Goodluck Jonathan could not save him, so if we want to live on those standards, what is good for the goose is good for the gander. But you must know that this is my personal opinion.” Amodu also revealed his decision not to take over the team for their last pair of Afcon qualifiers. “As a coach, you are as good as your last game. If as at the time I was asked to oversee the two remaining Afcon qualifiers, I would have been assumed to have failed,” he said. Both Amodu and Keshi worked together in 2002 as the Eagles finished third at the Afcon in Mali. Meanwhile, the leadership of NFF led by Amaju Pinnick has declared that the federation was still in talks which could possibly hand Keshi a new contract. According to Pinnick, “We even spoke with him on Monday, agreement is not something you rush. Both sides have to agree on certain terms. We are also looking at who can work amicably with others.” Nigeria are not in a hurry to settle the coaching job as their next international engagements come up in March 2015.

The Spaniard turned in a performance of the highest quality against the Reds at Old Trafford and believes Louis van Gaal's side can maintain their recent run of good form Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea believes the club can mount a serious title challenge after Sunday's 3-0 win over Liverpool. Goals from Wayne Rooney, Juan Mata and Robin van Persie secured triumph for Louis van Gaal's side but it could have been a different story without De Gea's heroics at the other end. Three fine stops from Raheem Sterling extended the England forward's scoreless run for club and country to 21 matches, and De Gea also displayed razor-sharp reactions to twice deny half-time substitute Mario Balotelli. A sixth straight league win leaves them third in the table, five points behind neighbours Manchester City and a further three shy of leaders Chelsea, and De Gea has called on his team- mates to now maintain their current form. "We have to go step by step, game by game," De Gea told Sky Sports . "We want to be in first position but we need to keep training hard and playing like this. "I'm really happy with the three points against Liverpool, of course. We played a very good game, we scored three goals and that's fantastic. "In the first half I saved two against Sterling and in the second half Balotelli. We scored three goals and it is unbelievable." Van Persie led the plaudits for De Gea and also paid tribute to United's defensive unit, where midfielder Michael Carrick was a reassuring presence in the middle of a back three. "I think overall we played a good game and David was outstanding again," he added. "He was absolutely brilliant, like he always is. "In those games it is always important to score first. It gives you an extra bit of calmness and I think, although at times we were a bit sloppy, overall we kept the ball well. "Carrick made a big difference at the back. He is so comfy on the ball. "[Phil] Jones, Jonny [Evans] - all the back four, five played really well. They were very calm."

- Newcastle United beat Chelsea 2-1 : " No," Mourinho responded when asked after ( December 6's ) 2-1 defeat by Newcastle if he would defend a slender lead in a similar fashion. "You may as well put a cow in the middle of the pitch and then stop the game because there was a cow." -Jose Mourinho during his Inter days : After Barcelona complained about having to take a coach to Milan due to travel disruption caused by an Icelandic volcano eruption in 2010, the then-Inter boss said: "The way they are, tomorrow we will probably read I am to blame for the volcano. Maybe I have a friend in the volcano and I am responsible for that." -Arsene Wenger and Jose Mourinho : “I am not concerned about how Chelsea are viewed morally,” Mourinho rambled in his first stint at Stamford Bridge. “What does concern me is that we are treated in a different way to other clubs. Some clubs are treated as devils, some are treated as angels. I don’t think we are so ugly that we should be seen as the devil and I don’t think Arsene Wenger [and Co.] are so beautiful that they should be viewed as angels.” -"Look, I’m a coach. I’m not Harry Potter," Mourinho said after drawing 0-0 with Real Mallorca on his competitive Real Madrid debut. "Harry Potter is magical but, in reality, there is no magic. Magic is fiction and football is real." - "I am prepared," he said after signing Sami Khedira in his first transfer window as Real Madrid coach. "The more pressure there is, the stronger I am. In Portugal, we say the bigger the ship, the stronger the storm. Fortunately for me, I have always been in big ships. FC Porto were a very big ship in Portugal, Chelsea were also a big ship in England and Inter were a great ship in Italy. Now I’m at Real Madrid, which is considered the biggest ship on the planet." - Mourinho on squad rotation during his first spell at Chelsea: "If you have at home one Bentley and one Aston Martin, if you go all day everyday in the Bentley and leave the Aston Martin in the garage you are a bit $tupid." -Ashley Cole and Jose Mourinho : "It's like having a blanket that is too small for the bed, Mourinho said when Chelsea were in the midst of an injury crisis at the end of the January transfer window in 2007. "You pull the blanket up to keep your chest warm and your feet stick out. I cannot buy a bigger blanket because the supermarket is closed but the blanket is made of cashmere." -Jose Mourinho and Roman Abramovich : "If you have no eggs, you have no omelette," Mourinho's infamously veiled criticism of Roman Abramovich's transfer policy began in 2007. "In the supermarket, you have class one, class two and class three eggs. Some are more expensive than others and some give you better omelettes. So, when the class one eggs are in Waitrose and you cannot get there, you have a problem." He was sacked shortly afterwards. -Referencing his famous egg metaphor, Mourinho described his Chelsea team at the start of last season as: “Beautiful young eggs, eggs that need a mum, in this case a dad, to take care of them, to keep them warm during the winter, to bring the blankets and to work and improve them and one day we'll arrive in a moment when the weather changes, the sun rises, we break the eggs and the eggs are ready to go for life at the top level.” -Jose Mourinho and Claude Makelele : "Claude Makelele is not a football player – Makelele is a slave," Mourinho said in criticism of the midfielder being called up to the France squad despite having announced his international retirement. "He’s played the biggest game you can, the World Cup final, and now wants to retire but the coach told us if he is not playing for France, he is not playing for Chelsea. We know the rules. You are a slave, you have no human rights." -Jose Mourinho and Manuel Pellegrini : "The title race is between two horses and a little horse that needs milk and needs to learn how to jump," Mourinho said after Chelsea defeated Manchester City in February this year. "Maybe next season we can race." -Jose Mourinho and Lionel Messi : "Barcelona is a cultural city with many great theatres," Mourinho started, in reaction to a young Lionel Messi getting Asier del Horno sent off for Chelsea in 2006. "And this boy has learned very well. He’s learned play-acting." -Stamford Bridge in the rain : "Sometimes you see beautiful people with no brains. Sometimes you have ugly people who are intelligent, like scientists," Mourinho said ahead of a Champions League clash with Barcelona in 2006. "Our pitch is a bit like that. From the top it's a disgrace but the ball rolls at normal speed." -Gonzalo Higuain and Karim Benzema : "If you go hunting with a good dog, you hunt more. If you go with a cat, you hunt less but you're still hunting," Mourinho responded when asking about Gonzalo Higuain's injury, meaning that he would be starting Karim Benzema. -"If I wanted to work quietly, I would have stayed at Portugal,” Mourinho said at his first press conference as Chelsea boss – the same one in which he coined the term 'special one'. “In Portugal we have pretty blue chairs: the Champions League, God and then, right after him, me.” -Rafa Benitez and Jose Mourinho : “It was a goal that came from the moon - from the Anfield stands,” Mourinho said after Chelsea were defeated by a ghost goal in the 2004-05 Champions League semi-final. “The best team lost. Liverpool scored - if you can say that they scored because maybe you should say the linesman scored.” -"Young players are a little bit like melons," Mourinho mused in 2007 towards the end of his first stint at Chelsea. "Only when you open and taste the melon are you 100 per cent sure that the melon is good. Sometimes you have beautiful melons but they don’t taste very good and some other melons are a bit ugly and, when you open them, the taste is fantastic. The bridge is a difficult one to cross and they have to play with us and train with us for us to taste the melon." -Jesualdo Ferreira : "The one with 30 years experience has never won anything; the one with three years has won a lot," Mourinho wrote in his newspaper column in February 2005, regarding Porto coach Jesualdo Ferreira. "The one with a 30-year career will be forgotten when he ends it; the one with three could end it right now and he could never be erased from history. This could be the story of a donkey who worked for 30 years but never became a horse." -“As we say in Portugal, they brought the bus and they left the bus in front of the goal,” Mourinho said, famously coining the term 'parking the bus' after drawing 0-0 with Tottenham in 2004. “I would have been frustrated if I had been a supporter who paid £50 to watch this game because Spurs came to defend. There was only one team looking to win, they only came not to concede; it’s not fair for the football we played.” -Arsene Wenger and Jose Mourinho : "I think he is one of these people who is a Viewer," Mourinho said of Arsene Wenger in 2005. "He likes to watch other people. There are some guys who, when they are at home, have a big telescope to see what happens in other families. He speaks, about Chelsea. I don't know if he wants my job, I don't know. He loves Chelsea."

Men, no be beans, I’m not sure any artiste has done that in Nigeria. and anytime we step into the studio together, he inspires me and I inspire him and any track we jump on, we must surely kill it.

The Catalans trail the French titleholders by a point ahead of their showdown in Catalunya, meaning that nothing less than a win will suffice if they want to finish first Luis Enrique believes Barcelona can feel confident of beating Paris Saint-Germain and topping Champions League Group F. The Catalans head into Wednesday's final group game at Camp Nou knowing only a victory will do if they wish to leapfrog the French champions into top spot. Both teams have already qualified comfortably for the knockout stages, but PSG sit a point clear of Barca at the summit with just one game remaining - thanks in no small part to their thrilling 3-2 win over Lionel Messi and Co. in Paris in September. But with the likes of Bayern Munich and Chelsea having already secured top spot in their respective groups, Barca and PSG know how important going through in first place could prove ahead of next Monday's last-16 draw in Nyon. And Blaugrana boss Luis Enrique is confident that his in-form side - who have won their last seven matches in all competitions - can claim the three points they require from what promises to be a tense evening in Catalonia. "I don't know if it is the best moment to play PSG, but it is certainly a good one," said the 44-year-old, who will be without suspended full-back Dani Alves. "We are playing a rival which has made things difficult for us with their quality, so the clash with PSG is a wonderful, perfect match. "We know that any winning result works for us, and we are going to fight the same way that we have since the beginning of the season." In order to win Group F, however, Barca need to do something no other team has managed this season. Following their 2-1 win over Nantes on Saturday - and Premier League leaders Chelsea's defeat at Newcastle United earlier in the same day - PSG now stand as the only team in any of Europe's five most major leagues not to have lost a game in any competition this term. Laurent Blanc's side have won 15 and drawn eight of their 23 matches thus far in 2014-15, with last weekend's victory against Nantes coming courtesy of a brace from former Barca striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic. However, Blanc is well aware that PSG's unbeaten run is set for its sternest examination yet, and has called on his players to up their game ahead of their crucial trip to Spain. "We're happy to have won [against Nantes], but we will need to improve to get a win against Barcelona," the Frenchman, who played for Barca for one season in the 1990s, commented. As is the case for any team visiting Camp Nou, keeping Messi quiet will be key if PSG are to escape with their undefeated record intact. That will be easier said than done, though, as the Barca talisman heads into the game in scintillating form even by his own exalted standards. Messi scored a third hat-trick in his last four appearances in Barca's 5-1 rout of neighbours Espanyol on Sunday, and was also on target in their defeat at Parc des Princes earlier in the season.

The former England captain netted late on but after Lazar Markovic was sent off, Brendan Rodgers' side could not find the winning goal they needed to reach the knockout stages Steven Gerrard could not haul 10-man Liverpool into the knockout stages of the Champions League as Basel drew 1-1 at Anfield. Paulo Sousa's team only required a draw to seal second place in Group B behind Real Madrid but dominated the first half either side of Fabian Frei's 25th-minute strike. Ten years ago this week, Liverpool famously overturned the odds in their final group game to beat Olympiacos 3-1 and qualify en route to eventual 2005 Champions League glory in Istanbul. But a disjointed performance meant similar heroics felt highly unlikely on Tuesday, even before substitute Lazar Markovic was sent off 15 minutes after being introduced. Gerrard, who scored decisively a decade ago, made Anfield dream again with a brilliant 81st-minute free-kick. Jordan Henderson's deflected header almost found the net four minutes from time, although five consecutive winless outings means Liverpool's European campaign will now continue at Europa League level. Basel enjoyed the first clear opening of the match in the 13th minute when Luca Zuffi’s throughball caught out a disorganised Liverpool defence and met Shkelzen Gashi's intelligent run, although the forward steered his shot over. Liverpool should have created a better chance when Henderson's lofted ball found Raheem Sterling in the Basel penalty area but the England international's cut-back to Gerrard was ill judged and under hit. Indecisiveness was a feature of the hosts' play all over the pitch and there was a sense of inevitability when the Swiss side retained possession well for Zuffi to lay off and Frei to lash a powerful left-footed shot into the bottom corner. Sterling gave Basel goalkeeper Tomas Vaclik his first work of the game with a routine save but it remained a far more testing night for the Liverpool defence - left-back Jose Enrique racing across to thwart Derlis Gonzalez after Zuffi was again given room to torment the hosts. Captain Marco Streller volleyed wastefully wide at the back post in the 32nd minute and Zuffi was the creator once more as Gashi thumped a low shot home two minutes before an interval that Liverpool badly needed, only for the Basel man to be denied by the offside flag. Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers introduced Alberto Moreno and Markovic for Enrique and Rickie Lambert at the interval - leaving the hosts without a recognised striker. Looking to inject immediate impetus, Markovic charged down the Basel left and the visiting defence struggled to clear his cross before Gerrard sent a 25-yard shot wide. Markovic and Joe Allen had 57th-minute efforts blocked, the Serbian winger at least providing a degree of impetus as Liverpool continued to struggle for fluency. The better chances remained at the other end, though, the impressive Taulant Xhaka weaving past a pair of challenges to shoot agonisingly wide. Liverpool's task shifted from difficult to improbable in the 60th minute when Markovic thrust a hand in Behrang Safari's direction. The contact was minimal and the Basel defender's reaction highly theatrical, but referee Bjorn Kuipers produced his red card to Anfield's dismay. The home faithful felt it should have been 10-a-side in the 71st minute but Vaclik raced out well to first get a hand to the ball when Sterling sent Gerrard racing clear of the visiting defence. Almost inevitably, Liverpool's talisman and captain threatened a late twist when he clattered a shot home via the upright and, after his header, Henderson then tested Vaclik with a venomous drive in stoppage time. Zuffi and Xhaka came close to settling Basel nerves on the break in a frantic finish while substitute Breel Embolo also threatened as Liverpool were left to reflect on falling some way short on their return to the top table of European football.

The reigning European champions sealed maximum points from their group stage campaign after running out comfortable winners on Tuesday night Cristiano Ronaldo and Gareth Bale struck in the first half to help give Real Madrid a 4-0 win over Ludogorets and make it six wins out of six in Champions League Group B. The defending European champions were guaranteed top spot but recorded maximum points for the second time in their history after further goals from Alvaro Arbeloa and Alvaro Medran sealed victory. Ludogorets saw Marcelinho sent off midway through the first half and missed out on the Europa League as they struggled to contain the quality of the Spanish giants. Amid early pressure from Real, Ludogorets' slim hopes of taking anything from the Santiago Bernabeu diminished with the loss of a man and a goal in quick succession. Marcelinho – on target in the reverse fixture - handled Raphael Varane's goalbound header to earn a straight red card before Ronaldo converted the penalty to move past club legend Raul to outright second in the competition's record scorers list with his 72nd Champions League goal. Bale doubled the advantage late in the first half with a header from Toni Kroos' corner before Arbeloa added a third 10 minutes from time with his first goal in over a year. Young midfielder Medran added a touch of gloss to a straightforward outing with a late strike - his first at senior level - as Real eased to a 19th straight win in all competitions - breaking Barcelona's Spanish record for consecutive victories. Having fallen behind early in the reverse fixture, Real were on the front foot from the off with Bale and Javier Hernandez threatening with headers in the opening stages. Isco was thwarted by a smart Vladislav Stoyanov save 14 minutes in following Asier Illarramendi's clever ball before Virgil Misidjan tested Keylor Navas with a curled strike from the edge of the area. However, Ludogorets were dealt a double blow 19 minutes in when Marcelinho was sent off for blocking Varane's header on the line with his hand. Ronaldo made the visitors pay with a chipped effort from 12 yards to open the scoring and set Real on their way. Ludogorets managed to keep Real at bay somewhat after the opener - displaying the defensive shape that had seen them lose just once in 11 games prior to Tuesday's clash. However, the hosts' quality came to the fore again eight minutes before the break as Bale crashed a header off the crossbar and past Stoyanov to ease Real into the break two goals ahead. Making the most of their numerical advantage, Real continued to threaten although visiting captain Svetoslav Dyakov went close before the hour as Navas was forced into an acrobatic stop. With Georgi Dermendzhiev's men defending impressively and Real's victory under no real pressure, chances were at a premium until the latter stages. Arbeloa - having already seen a header hit the crossbar - finished from close range before Medran's deflected strike looped over Stoyanov to give the 20-year-old his first goal for the club on his Champions League bow.

John Terry : (18 yellow cards) – No surprises that Chelsea’s captain makes it into this list, but John Terry’s 18 bookings is a drop in the ocean compared to some other Champions League sinners. Patrick vieira's : (18 yellow cards) – Patrick Vieira’s enforcer style didn't endear him to referees, and inevitably led to the French World Cup-winner regularly having his name taken. Edgar David's : (18 yellow cards) – You don’t become known as ‘The Pitbull’ by being nice. Edgar Davids' bark and bite incited conflict, and his four Champions League red cards is itself a record. Dani Alves : (19 yellow cards) - The picture says a thousand words. Winger on the ground, defender pleading and referee punishing. Dani Alves has been involved in a few of these. Roberto Carlos : (19 yellow cards) - Roberto Carlos scored his fair share of free kicks, and he also gave plenty away. Patrice Evra : (19 yellow cards) - Patrice Evra was never slow into the tackle and as a result has often been quick into the book. Alessandro Nesta : (19 yellow cards) – Alessandro Nesta looks resigned to his fate as one of his 19 Champions League yellow cards gets issued. Michael Ballack : (19 yellow cards) – Michael Ballack receives a caution for questioning some of Tom Henning Ovrebo’s decisions in the 2009 Champions League semi-final second leg between Chelsea and Barcelona. Massimo Ambrosini : (20 yellow cards) – Massimo Ambrosini was the midfield muscle in Milan's 2003 and 2007 Champions League-winning sides, and such roles are rarely blemish free. Jorge Costa : (20 yellow cards) – Jorge Costa was Jose Mourinho’s on field commander when Porto won the Champions League in 2004. Here he sizes up Marseille’s Didier Drogba. Martin demichelis : (20 yellow cards) – Martin Demichelis has played Champions League football for three different clubs and trouble seems to have followed him around. Andre Ooijer : (20 yellow cards) – Andre Ooijer only ever made 37 Champions League appearances, but that didn’t stop him racking up 20 bookings. David albelda's (20 yellow cards) – David Albelda’s commitment to the Valencia cause came with the consequences of a lengthy charge sheet. Mark van Bommel's : (22 yellow cards) – Mark van Bommel’s relationship with officials was not always so cordial. The Dutchman picked up 22 Champions League yellow cards and two reds whilst playing for PSV, Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Milan. Luis Figo's : (23 yellow cards) – Luis Figo’s brilliance brought some rough justice, but the Portuguese winger also dished it out. Walter Samuel : (23 yellow cards) – Coming from a long stock of no- nonsense Argentine defenders, Walter Samuel left a string of victims throughout his Champions League career. Alessio Tacchinardi (23 yellow cards) – Alessio Tacchinardi played in a successful Juventus side who mixed fire and flair, with the Italian midfielder usually responsible for the former. Sergio Ramos's : (23 yellow cards) – Sergio Ramos’s colourful disciplinary record resulted in the Real Madrid man so far collecting 23 yellows and three reds during an eventful Champions League career. Carles puyol : (25 yellow cards) – Carles Puyol has made well over 100 Champions League appearances and won the competition three times, so regular brushes with the law are to be expected. Xabi Alonso : (26 yellow cards) – Xabi Alonso isn’t known for being one of football’s hatchet man, but a total of 26 yellow cards portrays another side to the Spaniard’s good guy image. Gennaro gattuso : (28 yellow cards) - No stranger to some of the games darker arts, Gennaro Gattuso cements a second-place finish with a total of 28 bookings. Paul scholes's (32 yellow cards) – Paul Scholes’s inability to tackle became a running joke throughout his career, but it was no laughing matter for those he left his mark on. The Manchester United midfielder’s 32 yellow cards and two reds puts him top of our bad boys gallery.
