Eze & Osayi-Samuel Involved In Five Of Queens Park Rangers Goals In 6-1 Rout Of Cardiff City


Nigerian duo Eberechi Eze and Bright Osayi-Samuel were involved in five of the six goals scored by Queens Park Rangers in a 6-1 hammering of Cardiff City in a Championship clash staged at Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium (London) on New Year's Day.

Nahki Wells broke the deadlock after eight minutes as he ran on to a lofted through ball from Eze to head home, before Osayi-Samuel doubled the hosts advantage at minute 27.

Four minutes before half-time, Osayi-Samuel made it 3-0 as he fired past goalkeeper Neil Etheridge after beating two Cardiff City players.

On 48 minutes, Wells got his second goal of the game and QPR's fourth, heading home off an assist from Eze.

The impressive Eze got on the scoresheet when he finished off a lovely cross from Ilias Chair 12 minutes into the second half.

The two Nigerians have scored a combined 14 goals in the Championship so far this season and have set up 10 goals in total.

Queens Park Rangers are 15th in the English second tier with 35 points from 26 matches, five points off the playoff spots. They face Brentford in their next league game on January 11.

Chai! Championship game na die oooo.

No wonder komekn often talk about it.

Imagine QPR in 15th place out of 20 with 35 points from 26 games.

And 5 points off play-offs position?

Just 5 points but still close to the relegation level or is the championship not a 20 teams league?

'Leicester Have Replaced N'Golo Kante, Remarkable' - Fans Hail Ndidi After Producing Exquisite Assist


Wilfred Ndidi put in an impressive shift in the middle of the park as Leicester City claimed a 3-0 victory over Newcastle in their Premier League meeting on Wednesday evening.

Playing his 20th league game, the Nigeria international laid off an assist for midfield partner Hamza Choudhury in the 87th minute, with a deft pass for his cracking goal in the victory.

His all round performance was eye-catching and domineering, and such display had got people talking on the microblogging platform, Twitter, with most observers hailing him.

Below were some of the tweets we gathered..

@DominicWells: Wilfred Ndidi has played a perfect first half, the small passages of play where #LCFC have been out of possession, Ndidi has won it back. He's intercepted, tackled & progressed the ball superbly. Somehow, #LCFC have replaced N'golo Kante, remarkable.

@mikeivory91: That Ndidi assist ��

@DominicWells_SJ: #LCFC's overall performance, outstanding. Some of the standout players being; Maddison, Ndidi & Fuchs. Maddison the creative source, Ndidi winning everything in the middle & Fuchs - out of position (LCB), was brilliant, went about his work quietly.

@basilabia: Just seen Ndidi's assist. Exquisite, like my pastry making skills

@EaglesTrackerNG: New Year, Same Ndidi. Wilfred Ndidi with an assist and a brilliant performance in Leicester City's win.

@GLimbert4: Single pivot 352 worked well today against a poor Newcastle side with obvious injury issues. Maddison and Tielemans both got time on the ball, Ndidi unbelievable. Perez looks so much better centrally. Imagine that system with Demiral added into the 3 �� #LCFC

@Blue_Foxx1884: Wilfried Ndidi's improvement this season has been staggering. He's gone from being sloppy in possession to being Mr Reliable. Spraying balls left and right, little ones twos, nice lay offs. The complete package �

@Dsport_channel: Imagine if Wilfred Ndidi is a british player, the Hype and support he is going to see from the media. Let grow our Talents from here, we should treasure what we have as africa!!! Ndidi Midfield Beast

@ayushfernando10: The assist from ndidi is just as good, sets him up perfectly. Would've been rude not to place it in the top corner

@_Grimanditweets: Ndidi teed him up exquisitely there.

@Mattyflash23: Ahh it's like watching @England vs Holland, Gazza to Sheringham, to Shearer > Gray to Ndidi, to Hamza...The names just roll of the tongue...�

@Daywhaley: The assist from Ndidi ������

@ladisayz: Ndidi sabi ball choi

@apw024: Ndidi with the spatial awareness

Can't wait for Liverpool FC to do the Lord's work today.

BTW, tbaba1234, Icon4s, una see una boy Pepe yesterday? Looking good isn't he

That's Arteta magic.

After the talk about him and his feeling from the Coach, we saw his response last night-impressive

And I love the way he was removed when he began to falter

daveP:
Lindelof just had to use any part of his body, except his brain, to provide assists for both Arsenal goals. Lol.

Arsenal were the hungrier side... Man u needs a midfield overhaul sincerely. Only McTomi fits, asides Pogba.

It's because Arsenal's style of play last night refused to allow for the usual and regular counter attacking approach that Man United is known for.

Hence the continued back pass from the midfield to the defence line by Man United that completely negates them.

A proud Gunner though that the above is coming from

TheGoodJoe:
Son can comfortably play the striking role and even offer more running than Kane.

Has his Red card been overturned? Because I want to believe he would miss 3 matches before Kane's return after being 6 six weeks out

mostob:

What a future for Arsenal with Arteta at the helm of affairs at the Emirate stadium.

One only hopes that he gets the desired support in getting the necessary players as back up for every leaky position.

Arsenal Reignite Interest In Glasgow Rangers' Nigeria International Midfielder


English Premier League club Arsenal have reignited their interest in Glasgow Rangers midfielder Joe Aribo.

Scouts In Attendance has informed that Gunners scouts have watched the last six matches played by Rangers and has suggested that the Scottish Premiership side are more likely to be running the rule over Aribo than his teammate Glen Kamara, who used to play for Arsenal youth teams.

The Nigeria international has started the last six games played by Rangers in all competitions - against Celtic (2), Young Boys, Motherwell, Hibernian and Kilmarnock FC - and contributed to four goals (1 goal, 3 assists).

Following an excellent season at Charlton Athletic, Aribo was on the radar of several Premier League clubs not limited to Arsenal and Manchester City, but was convinced by manager Steven Gerrard to make the move to Scotland last summer.

The left-footed midfielder shares the same agent as Arsenal youth-teamers Tobi Omole, Folarin Balogun and Malcolm Ebiowei, as well as Hale End Academy products Alex Iwobi and Chuba Akpom, and this would give credence to suggestions that the Gunners are monitoring the Super Eagles star ahead of a possible swoop as from the January transfer window.

Aribo is contracted to Glasgow Rangers until the end of the 2022-2023 season.

Thanks for giving me the run down my brother.
I hope this new year the NFF will improve on developing talents from the home front as well as giving promising dual nationality players their due chance to compete and be selected on merit. If the NFF fail to do away with the services of the likes of Aigbogun then it will be business as usual.

Amen ooo

We just hope there are changes in the technical crew of the U 20 and others that needs fresh hands.

Joebie:
thanks boss!

Happy birthday and New year combined

Joebie:
Although I wasn't follow this discussion and don't know the context, I can update this list and break it down country by country.. lol. dem plenty

Charlesemeka85 actually posted about the interest on basel's Nigerian Born Noah Okafor by AC Milan, Juventus and Man City though.

Then,

Chriskels said Tnx but he is already a Swiss
international already.

He even when ahead to post a quote from Noah Okafor about his readiness to lace his boots for Nigeria but was turned down by U20 Coach-Aigbogun

Charlesemeka85 then asked if he is serious

So chriskels now went ahead to talk about Jonas David too that declared interest for Nigeria as well

Before finally capping it up with the reference to your post that Became the topic of discussion between them in relation to the players with dual or multiple Nationality including Nigeria.

So, your them plenty statement and your willingness to analyze them country by country is not wrong after all

Pinnick: NFF Will Focus On Qualifiers, Youth Programmes In 2020

December 31, 2019 4:40 pm





The hard focus of the Nigeria Football Federation in the year 2020 will be on the various qualifying matches for major competitions as well as youth and grassroots development programs, according to President of the NFF, Mr. Amaju Melvin Pinnick.

Pinnick made it known on Tuesday that the football –governing body will set much store by the qualifying campaigns of the Super Eagles for the 2022 FIFA World Cup and 2021 Africa Cup of Nations, as well as the qualifiers of the Super Falcons for the 12th edition of the Women Africa Cup of Nations, and those of the U17 girls and U20 girls for their different FIFA World Cup finals.


“We are also determined to concentrate much effort and resources on youth development programmes, including but not limited to the NFF/Zenith Bank Future Eagles Programme.

It is important that we continue to churn out quality talents and work hard to nurture them to excellent products who will then fit into the age-grade National Teams and bring honour to the nation at various championships.

“As we have made known, teams representing Nigeria in international matches and competitions will be told in no uncertain terms that they are expected to win, not just participate. The era of simply being there to participate is long gone.”

The draw for the qualifying campaign of the 2022 FIFA World Cup finals will be conducted in Egypt in January 2020, with 10 groups of four teams each that will produce only the winner from each group advancing to a fierce, five home-and-away battles which will eventually produce Africa’s flagbearers in Qatar.

Already, the Super Eagles are in command of their pool in the qualifying race for the 33rd Africa Cup of Nations finals in year 2021, with two wins out of two against Benin Republic and Lesotho last month.

Second –placed Benin Republic are three points adrift, with the race set to resume in August 2020.

Nigeria took the bronze medals after finishing third among the 24 participating teams in the biggest –ever Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt this year summer.

Nine –time African champions, Super Falcons also have a qualifying round to negotiate before heading to the finals of the Women Africa Cup of Nations to defend the crown they taken consecutively between 2014 and 2018.

The U20 girls, Falconets and the U17 girls, Flamingos have qualifying matches for their different FIFA World Cup competitions already set. The 2020 FIFA U20 Women’s World Cup finals will be co-hosted by Costa Rica and Panama, while India will host the FIFA U17 Women’s World Cup finals.

Happy new year from dubayy...

Happy New year but still left with 1hr 3 minutes here in Nigeria though

Subzero047:
You must have some stake in this issue

No particular stake Brother but just pure patriotism and Zero tolerance for corruption in truth.

Imagine the former Minister of sports-Solomon Dalung saying that the NFF usually gives about #200 Million to each and every New Minister of sports in the country.

What for?

And when the Minister's phone number- Sunday Dare was dialled on different occasions in order to ascertain the truth, he refused to pick his call

Chelsea fans, Would you still be proud of Your club after reading the below?

Chelsea Team Of The Decade Revealed : Mikel, Moses Outvoted; Babayaro Not Acknowledged


Chelsea have revealed their Team of the Decade that comes to an end today, with three former Nigeria internationals missing out.

Former Super Eagles captain John Obi Mikel had been included on an 11-man shortlist along with current Chelsea boss Frank Lampard, N'Golo Kante, Cesc Fabregas, Ramires, Oscar, Jorginho, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Michael Essien, Mateo Kovacic and Nemanja Matic for three midfield positions.

Essien, Kante and Lampard were the three central midfielders selected by Chelsea supporters.

As for the first winger role, current Blues player Victor Moses was outvoted by one of the most talented players to grace the Premier League, Belgium captain Eden Hazard.

Celestine Babayaro, who won three Cups during his time at Chelsea, was surprisingly not nominated for the left-back position.

The three candidates were Ashley Cole, Ryan Bertrand and Marcos Alonso.

Chelsea Team Of The Decade (4-3-3 Formation) : Cech; Ivanovic, Cahill, Terry, Cole; Essien, Kante, Lampard; Willian, Drogba, Hazard

Chidi Nwakali, Musa Mohammed and Dele Alampasu should also make that list

Well said but sometimes, All what players needed is Luck

Because with Luck, irrespective of output, regular featuring would always ultimately lead to improvement thereby raising their display profile and probably ratings and rankings.

Unfortunately, they are still where they are years back

Klopp eager to sign £60million forward for Liverpool – Report
December 31, 2019 News Desk 0 Comments newsnow, Osimhen


In the past couple of weeks, Liverpool have been linked with Nigerian international Victor Osimhen and the latest reports seem intriguing.

According to an exclusive story covered by The Express, the European Champions are stepping up their interest to hire the services of the 21-year-old center forward.

News – Report – Liverpool could move to sign “exciting talent” in January – Face competition

The renowned British news source have revealed that Jurgen Klopp is eager to sign the striker, who has been in impressive form for Lille in the current campaign.

So far, in 16 Ligue 1 starts this term, the African forward has directly contributed in 14 goals (10 goals and 4 assists). Overall, the youngster has netted 13 goals in 24 appearances since joining the French club in the summer transfer window (Transfermarkt).

Osimhen was voted as the African Young Player of the Year in 2015 after helping Nigeria win the U-17 World Cup. In that competition, he won the Golden Boot award by scoring 10 goals in just 7 appearances for his country.

He made his senior international debut back in 2017 and so far, in 8 appearances, the former Charleroi forward has scored 4 goals and provided 2 assists for the Super Eagles.

His current contract with Lille will expire in 2024 and as far as his price tag is confirmed, a fee of around 70 million euros (£60million) has been touted (RMC Sport). Club president Gerard Lopez is not looking to sell his prized asset in the winter transfer window.

We have two world class African wingers in the form of Salah and Mane in our offense. The arrival of Osimhen would allow Klopp to start an all African attack.

Nevertheless, for now, Firmino is our No.9 and the Brazilian international is irreplaceable at Anfield. On the other hand, we have got Origi in the backup and the Belgian international has proved to be highly important for us, especially in the past 12 months.

Have your say – Should Klopp splash £60million to sign Victor Osimhen for Liverpool?

tbaba1234:
Nigeria’s biggest unfulfilled talents of the decade

opera.com

Dec 31, 2019 3:48 AM

By Solace Chukwu


Musa Yahaya

It is perhaps best to let Manu Garba, who coached Nigeria to success at the 2013 FIFA U-17 World Cup, tell the story of what might have been for a player he insists was the best player in the UAE.

“During the World Cup, he (Musa Yahaya) was voted as the undisputed player of the tournament. I have the [ballot] in my house,” he told me in an interview in April.

“Unfortunately, they couldn’t give it to him because Kelechi (Iheanacho) was top in the highest goalscorer chart, so they decided to give it to Kelechi.

“I think he first signed for Tottenham and they loaned him out. If he had gone to the right club, I’m sure that boy could have been one of the best players, not just for the club, but all over the world.

“He’s a player that, when he’s on the ball, you can hardly track him down. He’s a good ball carrier, and he finishes very well too. He’s a disciplined chap. So, he’s just unlucky in, maybe, the contract he signed or the place he’s playing now. I understand that, at times, they even play him at right-back in the Porto B team.”

Nura Abdullahi

The story of Nura Abdullahi is a heartbreaking one.

A brilliant, promising right-back who dazzled during the 2016 UEFA Youth League, Nura was also a part of Roma’s title-winning Primavera side that year, and was promoted to the first team in 2017 before being loaned to Serie B side Perugia.

It was here that it began to go south for the then 21-year-old. In March 2018, he underwent a routine cardiological evaluation, and was advised to desist from sporting activity for 30 days, after which further tests would be conducted.

However, further tests brought to light the painful truth: Nura would have to give up football entirely, and thus a highly-rated talent was truncated well short of his prime. A sad outcome for a player who seemed destined for the top, and who had reportedly even caught the eye of Barcelona in the past.

Isaac Success

Searing speed, power, dribbling ability and calmness in front of goal: Isaac Success has it all. Or, at least, he had.

There was a time when it seemed almost a foregone conclusion that the Watford man would lead the line for the Nigeria national team for many years to come. Even though injury ruled him out for the majority of the tournament, he scored twice as Nigeria claimed victory in the 2013 FIFA U-17 World Cup in the UAE.

However, since moving to England, it has failed to come together for the former Granada man. In October 2017, it was reported he has been arrested after an unseemly escapade with prostitutes in a London hotel. He has also been manifestly overweight for much of his time with the Hornets, and has as such struggled with injuries despite brief flashes of promise.

He is another who, according to Manu Garba, had all the tools to be a success as a professional. The coach, however, alluded to some possible reasons for his struggles.

“He’s one of the players we knew that, given the right environment and discipline, if he was focused enough not to have any issues with his personal life, I believe he would have been one of the players to have made it. Because he is a ball carrier, very strong, very aggressive and he can shoot too.”

Kelechi Nwakali]

It may seem premature to include Nwakali here, but for a player who has been hailed as the future of the Super Eagles midfield, the 2015 FIFA U-17 World Cup Golden Ball winner seems to have stayed in one spot for the last four years.

Following his exploits in Chile, where he drove the Golden Eaglets to retain the title they had won two years earlier, he inked a deal with Premier League giants Arsenal. While work permit issues proved a hindrance in the early going, it seemed only a matter of time before he would prove his level out on loan, satisfy the requirements, and blossom into the player everyone had decided he would be.

The reality has been very different: a lack of consistency plagued Nwakali through his loan spells, and he was eventually let go by Arsenal in the summer. The desperate attempts to jumpstart his career via the national U-23 team backfired spectacularly as Nigeria failed to qualify for the 2020 Olympics, and a reported move to Huesca seems murky.

Imoh Ezekiel

There was a time when it seemed the Lagos-born forward would be in the middle of a tug-of-war between Nigeria and Belgium.

His very first season in the Jupiler League made it clear a player of immense potential had been unearthed. He scored 14 times and laid on a further five goals in 22 appearances in the regular season for Standard Liege, before powering them to the Europa League by recording three assists in a 7-0 pounding of Gent in the play-off.

The following season, he backed it up with a combined 18 goal contributions in 29 matches, and was unlucky to be left out of Nigeria’s squad for the 2014 World Cup.

What followed was one of the most difficult to understand transfer decisions: with a number of deals on the table and just shy of 21, Ezekiel opted for a move to Qatari side Al-Arabi.

He only spent six months in the Gulf before returning to Standard Liege, and then Anderlecht on loan. However, all of his momentum seemed to completely dissipate.

He gave a brief glimpse of what might have been, starring at the 2016 Olympics as Nigeria claimed bronze, but never quite hit the heights again. He now turns out for Belgian side Kortrijk.

They all no doubt ably and aptly qualify to be dubed as 'Nigeria’s biggest unfulfilled talents of the decade'

charlesemeka85:
President of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) Amaju Pinnick has expressed fears the Super Eagles could boycott the 2022 World Cup qualifiers over unpaid bonuses and allowances.

Pinnick sounded out this warning in a letter addressed to sports minister Sunday Dare demanding for balance payments from recent Federal Government intervention funds.

The FGN approved a billion Naira to cover the Eagles 2019 AFCON campaign, the 2019 Women’s World Cup as well as the U20 World Cup.

However, only 700 million Naira was released to the NFF.

The government also approved another 3.2 billion Naira for the Eagles 2018 World Cup campaign in Russia and only 1.5 billion Naira got to the NFF.



Pinnick claimed in his letter that the various national teams led by the Super Eagles could now shun World Cup qualifying campaigns as they are owed various amounts.

He also said the NFF are heavily indebted to hotels and travel agents because of the non-release of these monies.

The Eagles will begin their quest for a place at the 2022 World Cup in March after the draw on January 21.

However, the NFF boss was silent of the various incomes the federation received in the outgoing year.

It included over 3 billion Naira from sponsorships, $2 million from CAF for the Eagles finishing third at the AFCON as well as $1 million from FIFA for the Super Falcons advancing to the Round of 16 at the Women’s World Cup in France.

“They just want to blackmail the government,” NFF director of protocol Oyetunde Aderibigbe told Human Rights Radio today

That is how they roll at the NFF.

When the Government wants to hold them accountable for funds received from the various mentioned outlets, they scream interference and call upon the Equally corrupt FIFA for protection

Yet they can't do without Government subventions and budgets.

Let them go ahead and destroy the only functional Team of Nigeria in the SUPER EAGLES by boycotting the world cup qualifiers intentionally because of the remaining peanuts compared to the unaccountable amounts received.

I didn't know you equally listened to today's program too as being broadcast.

Let me copy do4luv14 for what he has to say about the above because he loves crucifying me for mentioning the program and the call for listening ears to the radio station

slimthugchimee2:
Who are we talking about here?

Skodran Mustafi of Arsenal

ChrisKels:
In the said match, Aina was a left back, hence it is between him and Taiwo, while Odiah battles Awaziem.


Beginning/End of decade squad(line ups)


• Ejide over Akpeyi - GK

• Odiah over Awaziem - RB

• Taiwo over A in a - LB

• Yobo over Ajayi - CB

• Ekong over Shittu CB

• Mikel over Aribo CM

• Kanu over Iwobi AM

FORWARDS

• Chukwueze over Nsofor - RW

• Osaze over Simoses - LW

• Osimhen over Ike Uche

I quite agree with you on the above

do4luv14:
Na you sabi, me no take wiki serious cos its editable


during his time he is know as CHIDI ODIAH EOD

Wikipedia has no Stephen on it.

But His Facebook page that I followed has CHUKWUDI STEPHEN ODIAH as his name.

Thank God for his pictures that means no mistake about him.

Even transfermarkt has a similar information as CHIDI ODIAH

and

CHUKWUDI ODIAH about him

do4luv14:
Sorry bros, both you and Bolowolowo got it wrong
it CHIDI ODIAH,

a fine leftback, who had sweet daring run down the flanks,

I think its injury that contribute to his decline, before the left bomber Arrive


CC: icon4s, Tbaba1234, thesupernerd, Basconvanveli, ( i fit call chris sef) Criskel, sir Andrew4444, and Safarigirl

No one is wrong as you claim okay.

His official name is CHUKWUDI ODIAH

Some of his profile account bears CHUKWUDI STEPHEN ODIAH

STEPHEN ODIAH

ODIAH STEPHEN

Wikipedia refer to him as CHIDI ODIAH on the surface, CHUKWUDI "CHIDI" ODIAH as introduction but upon clicking the link, you would see CHUKWUDI ODIAH

so everyone is correct because it's the same person that played for Nigeria between 2004-2010

He equally played for Eagle cement, Julius Berger, Sherrif Tiraspol, and CSKA Moscow before returning to Julius Berger in 2015 again




Let me even help you with the correct monikers below

Cc
Bascovanveli, Chriskels, AndrewBaba44

Bolowolowo:
Thanks for clarification sir. Happy new year.

Happy New year to you and everyone in here too Brother

Bolowolowo:
Who is Odiah?

A lot of these Nigerian sports media groups need to fix their infographs. Common spelling and factual errors are ruining their credibility.

Secondly,

Wouldn’t their first team of the decade be from their first match of the year 2010? Perhaps I am interpreting decade incorrectly?

STEPHEN ODIAH in the picture below is being referred

They actually made a mistake of representing OLA AINA as ODIAH in the LAST SQUAD OF THE DECADE

Secondly,

You certainly interpreted the decade incorrectly by referencing the year 2010.

Decade means 10 years interval. ie from 2009 to 2019.

So it is the super eagles first game in 2009 and not in 2010

Modified: The date is even indicated on the screenshot as 11 FEB 2009 for the FIRST and 17 NOV 2019 for the LAST
