Kayode I know.

But that Nwakaeme wey dey for Isreali league? undecided Because he scored from the penalty spot in the Europa league? undecided

Besides, these are Centre forwards, and Musa and Simon are wingers.

Let Rohr solve our main striker problem first. We dnt have problems with our wingers.

That aside, I doubt Kayode can displace Musa or Simon if played from the wings position. As for Nwakaeme, let us see him more in action first.

Bros, it is just a slow news day... Journalist was looking for what to write.

Yakubu, Martins and Ike Uche all had very good careers. If Onyekuru has a career as good as these 3, he would be happy with himself.


You talk like some of thier careers are already over.

I won't put myself under pressure at Leicester City, insists Wilfred Ndidi

The 19-year-old midfielder has disclosed that he would be joining the Foxes in January, and will not be under pressure to deliver for Claudio Ranieri's men.


Wilfred Ndidi has insisted that he will not be under pressure to play like N’golo Kante when he eventually signs for Leicester Cityin January.


The 19-year-old midfielder is expected to replace Kante, who joined Chelsea during the summer transfer window after helping the King Power stadium outfit win the English Premier League title for the first time last season.


"I don't have to be Kante. Kante is Kante. We are different players," Ndidi toldLeicestermercury.


"I have my own style of play and I don't want to be under pressure to be another player.


"I just have to go there (Leicester City) and play my own game.


"I am more comfortable in the midfield. I am now more used to playing there than in other positions."


Ndidi joined Genk from Nath Boys of Lagos for about £80,000 as a central defender in 2015; meanwhile, his deal to Leicester could be up to 18.6 million pounds.

REVEALED – Onazi Didn’t Donate A Million Naira To Falcons, He Gave Them 1.5M Naira

Contrary to widespread reports that Super Eagles star midfielder Ogenyi Onazi has given the players of the victorious Super Falcons players 1 million naira, Owngoalnigeria.com understands that he actually gave more than what has been reported.


Sources close to the player revealed that he gave the team, the sum of 1.5m naira, and has also gone a step further in speaking to some big wigs in the Nigeria Football Federation and the Ministry of Youth, Sports and Culture to bring to an end the non payment of the bonuses of the team.


The Falcons conquered Africa to win the Africa Women Championship in Cameroon for the 8th time by defeating the host 1-0 in the final, but they achieved the record feat without receiving any of the match bonus due to them.


Since winning the tournament they have been involved in a spat with the NFF and the Ministry of Sports over their unpaid wages, and events took a different turn when the ladies staged a protest march to the Nigeria house of assembly.


A directive to pay them their outstanding allowances in 48 hours was issued by the Presidency but recent reports indicate that, the ladies won’t be getting their pay today which happens to be the deadline.

(SEE DOCUMENT) – Ownership Tussle Threatens Nigeria Rio 2016 Ace Proposed Move To Spanish Side

Nigeria Rio 2016 defender Saturday Keigo Erimuya who has agreed a deal to join Spanish second division side Cadiz is currently embroiled in an ownership tussle that could scuttle the deal.


Owngoalnigeria.com has in it’s possession a document from Lagos based football side Real Sapphire Football Club agreeing a deal with the original owner of the economic right of the defender BJ Foundation before his move to Kayseri Erciyesspor Kulubu Dernegi of Turkey.


In the document, the Lagos based side are entitled to 50% of his future transfer to any team from the Turkish side, but Saturday terminated his deal with the team after returning from the Olympics in Rio.

Saturday refused to return to the team following their relegation to the third division in Turkey, and after months at home, he had a short trial with Cadiz which he passed and was offered a deal which will come to effect in January.


But the deal is apparently on the verge of collapse as Real Sapphire Football Club of Lagos are standing by the agreement they had with BJ Foundation before his move to Turkey in January.

Alampasu Loses First Choice Spot At Portuguese Third Division Side As Loan Spell Draws To An End

Dele Alampasu is close to ending his three months loan deal with Portuguese third division team Cesarense, the team he joined from top division side CD Feirense.


So far he has made 8 league appearances for the team, but with no clean sheet to his name, the 19 year old was dropped for their last game against Gondomar.


Ironically the man who replaced him Bruno Pinto kept a clean sheet and helped them to their first win in three months, a run that coincided with when Alampasu was first choice.


Although there are reports that Cesarense wants him to extend his loan deal, the bottom placed team are now having doubts about his abilities after their winless run came to an end without him.


A decision on his possible return or extension of loan will be made after their next league game Estarreja on Sunday, a game that will officially bring to an end, the three months loan of the recently invited Super Eagles shot stopper.

Villarreal Number 10 Eyes Super Eagles Call Up After Dazzling Display Against Rivers United

Former Nigeria U-17 midfielder Jack Ipalibo who played for Spanish side Villarreal in their 0-1 loss to Nigeria League runners up Rivers United says he moved to the Spanish side in order to get the attention of the Nigeria national team handlers.


Jackie as he is fondly called by close friends and associates left the camp of the Nigeria U-20 during preparations for their ill fated Africa Youth Championship Qualifiers to team up with the Spanish side, where he has grown into one of the integral players of the B team.


“It is the dream of every professional footballer to play for his country at senior level and I am no different.


“One of the major reasons why I came to Europe is because I want to achieve this desire to play for the Super Eagles one day,”


“I will advise young players like me who want to make it in Europe to be disciplined when they get here because it is not easy to make it at this level,” he said.

Conte has a system, a lot of work goes on in the training grounds to perfect that system/style of play.

Wenger has a system, a lot of work goes on in the training grounds to perfect that system/style of play.

Every manager has their own training ground routine.

Playing time is critical to development fot young players . Clubs understand this and that is why youths are often loaned out

The training pitch is where players improve, learn and understand how to play the system. Train to stay fit and improve their speed. Go through drills to iron out their mistakes. The playing time cannot be compared to the training.

As De Bruyne put it. BIG DIFFERENCE.

Why did the same De Bruyne leave Chelsea? undecided .He left Chelsea for Wolfsburg(A Lesser Club) for game time and his game improved because of Real-time actions on the field.

It's just like a Soldier having all the training in the world without the Real Life Experience Of battle. There are scenarios that pan Out on the Pitch, that aren't Taught in Training. Adrenaline doesn't kick in training.

Ronaldinho and Deco were bad Trainers but still made it because of Game Experience.

Ronaldinho's discipline issues came at Barcelona and not PSG. Ronaldinho grew at Gremio and PSG.

Deco's discipline issues came at Barcelona too. Not FC Porto.

De Bruyne believed he was better than the players Mourinho played ahead of him. He felt Mourinho was wrong keeping him on the bench. If he was to learn from a top manager and players who are highly respected, I doubt he would complain.

Victor Moses Youth Team Coach Tells Conte : He Is Not A Fullback

Douglas Idahosa, the coach of BJ Foundation FC of Benin, thinks that Chelsea manager Antonio Conte is playing his former pupil Victor Moses out of position.


The famous Nigerian grassroots coach expressed his displeasure that Moses, who was deployed in the number nine role while at his academy, is largely used as a winger by most of the English clubs he has represented.


“When Moses was at Crystal Palace, the difference I noticed is that they converted him to a winger. I would have preferred him to be a top striker which he used to be at BJ Foundation, ” said Idahosa to allnigeriasoccer.com.


“Moses was the captain of my Under 13 team. He was an excellent striker that could score as many goals as Ronaldo de Lima (former Barcelona striker).”


Idahosa added : “Now I have not seen him score the type of goals he used to score with my youth team. I think he has become more of a winger not a fullback. ”


Moses is expected to be named in the Chelsea squad that will face his former team Crystal Palace in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.

The first thing the NFF needs to do is get out of this nike slave contract that we are under. England just signed a 12 yr 400 million pound deal with this same nike and we can barely get training kits from them. We have alot to offer and i don't see why we have to settle for such crumbs, it just seems like laziness.

Let them battle for places in the team. Iheanacho, Sane, Gabriel, Moreno. At the end, it is to make a group of three or four attackers who will destroy teams with devastating effect.
