Nwakali won't break into the SE team by January. It will happen eventually by anytime next year if he does impress for Huesca in La Liga like I expect him to do but January will be too early for him. Much too early.

But uhmmm... No international games sef in January 2021 naa not so?
"Start taking shape", not "take shape". By that I mean we should start getting the picture. It is all fantasy though, subject to how things pan out in the first half of the season.

Bukayo Saka when asked on Skysports earlier today about his international future

"It's a tough choice,"

"I'm happy to have represented England at youth level but I'm also proud of my Nigerian heritage from my parents.

"We haven't been picked by any team so it's about staying humble and when the time comes we'll make the decision."


Source: Skysports.com
He is always quick to tell you he is Nigerian, even if this boy doesn't end up playing for Nigerian, though that is highly unlikely from what I have gathered, I will always have so much respect for him and his parents. They brought him up the right way.

Chris, come on now... must everything be about K.Nwakali? Our news here should not revolve around him all the time. Besides I think they should be done celebrating. What are they still celebrating sef? They got La Liga coming up soon in September. So I expect they will be back ASAP for preseason.
This is what I want from him, he can not complain of exhaustion, if he engages in this because he more or less was inactive this season. I want him in top condition before the season commences.

By the way, it would also go a long way to endear him into the heart of the coaches.


I want this line up to start taking shape by January next year.

.................................Osimhen..................................
...................Ejuke........................Chu'Eze.................

Tyronne Ebuehi in training. He hired a personal physical conditioning trainer to get him set for the new season apart from Club trainings he engage in.

Maduka Okoye of Sparta Rotterdam is not left out too. He hired the same physical trainer.
Kelechi Nwakali in my honest opinion should shun his team's league winning celebration (if any) and join these guys to this path to get himself physically ready for next season. It is not just enough to be talented, you still gotta break sweat to be relevant.

Iwobi has played AM, LW,RW,LWB,RWB and on a few occasions, CM .
Aina can play LB,RB,LWB and RWB..

Saka is a decent player no doubt, but there is nothing "rare" about his talents..

Don't get your hopes too high...he is still young and still learning...

CONGRATULATIONS TO SIMY NWANKWO!!!!

HE IS OFFICIALLY PROMOTED TO THE SERIE A WITH CROTONE.

Simy returns to the Big league of Italy.


Crotone's closest rivals, Spezia and Pordenone played out goalless and score draws respectively. This leaves Simy's CROTONE with 8 points above third placed Spezia with two games to go.

So yes, we have another Nigerian promoted to a Big 5 league.

Welcome back to Serie A, Simy. wink
I hope his proposed move to Lazio comes to fruition. Another Ighalo like late bloomer.

Subzero must be very glad now

DONE DEAL: Leon Balogun Completes Move To New Club

Opera News


Super Eagles defender Leon Balogun has completed a move to Scottish club Rangers.

Rangers on Friday confirmed the acquisition of the 32-year old as they released an official statement indicating Balogun has signed a one-year deal having an option for a further year.

Balogun, 32 arrives in Glasgow with experience both in the Premier League and German Bundesliga and completed last season with Wigan Athletic.

Rangers manager Steven Gerrard commented: “I am pleased to secure the signature of Leon. He is an experienced centre half who will add strength and depth to our squad.

“His experience in the Premier League as well as his international pedigree strengthens our squad and will assist in the development of our young defenders.

“Leon has just finished a round of competitive fixtures with Wigan so will hit the ground running. He’s a positive and bright character and we are looking forward to his influence around the group”

Sporting Director Ross Wilson added: “We quickly targeted Leon after adapting our transfer plan when Niko Katic suffered an injury a few weeks ago.

“We agreed terms with Leon shortly before going to France enabling Leon to give Wigan his full focus, particularly in the situation they found themselves in.

“Leon impressed Steven and I with his enthusiasm and excitement to join Rangers from the moment we first spoke whilst the staff at Brighton and Wigan couldn’t have spoken any higher about his personality and abilities.”

Another Nigeria international Joe Aribo also plays for Rangers
Please enough with all these opra news.

I am very sure rohr won't use saka as 3


If he opt for us....chukwueze will have his position to fight for smiley
That's not his best position, though I believe he can operate there to keep Chuks on his toes, his natural position is the LW, but I would take an Ejike ahead of him in that LW position

Well we re opposite on dis,although d team is in dire need of an AM...I believe saka's talent is rare to come by,having him will b a huge +...and I also eze feel he's not far better Dan iwobi(na because say d guy Neva play for us),beside a rejuvenated nwakali is dere..and I still believe in akinkunmi amoo to climb d ladder soon..I believe he will get dere too
I believe in a rejuvenated Nwakali, but not as an AM, I prefer him at CM. Not taking anything away from Saka but I honestly don't think we are in dire need of him because I can't quite see where he fits in

You know Nnachi, I too used to think of Saka at LB for us but on a second thought, no. I believe we will utilise him as a winger. But when we go 3-5-2, I think Saka can be an option at LWB.
Seriously, I am not keen on Saka, I don't really see where he fits in, in out team.

The only player I will be delighted to have is Eze

Komekn:- Iwobi was invited when he was essentially an academy player for arsenal, because of the presence of Okocha not because he was exceptional at Arsenal. After the invite, Iwobi cemented his place in Arsenal first team.

Komekn:- English players do not need Nigeria to blossom their careers

Komekn:- The national team is not a place to nuture talents or help fledging careers, but, if we could invite Osimhen a flop at Wolfsburg, Nwakali et al, to help their careers, we should also extend same favors others like onomah, onyedinma, Aneke, otherwise it double standard


Komekn:- English naijas are not desperate to sign up with preferred agents of NFF officials and do not understand the language of pecuniary appreciation for selection.

Komekn: Oviemo has always been eager to play for Nigeria.


Oya carry mic, tell us, is Oviemuno's eagerness to play for Naija borne outta his desperation to sign up with our agents, or was it because he understands the percuniary appreciation languages?

Take the mic...

No more a rumor... wink It's confirmed. Just waiting for the unveiling/official announcement from the club themselves. We now have Four Nigerians at Rangers. Two are Super Eagles. The other two still prospects. Not a bad move at 32.
Wow smart decision. Dude is already at the other side of his career, as he already has his better years behind him, it is only wise he was headed for the pensions just like Germain Defoe and others.
