TheSuperNerd:Goodjoe runs with iheanacho but you run with a battery of them-iheanacho, Iwobi, Osimhen, isaac success. See ehn we are blessed. The flowering of our football has happened without any policy intent from our sports administrators unlike other nations especially Germany. We are set to take the world by storm and I see us lasting longer on the stage than the first bloom generation of the Amokachi and Okocha email because the depth of talent available runs so deep. Even our perennial administrative maladroitness will not stop us, perhaps it might limit us but it cannot stop us. A Tsunami has been set in motion! |

Nigeria’s Super Eagles Rise 10 Places In This Month’s FIFA Rankings. world football’s governing body FIFA on Thursday released its world rankings of national football teams. The list, among other things, shows a marked improvement in the placement of Nigeria’s senior football team, the Super Eagles- it puts them in 50th place, 10 higher than the 60th place they managed in the previous month. The leap recorded by the Super Eagles reflects a recent positive run in their world cup qualifying campaign, and particularly their defeat of the highly rated Algerians. Nigeria now ranks 7th on the African continent, a position it shares with Burkina Faso, which also occupies the 50 position in the global rankings. Senegal leads the way in Africa, followed closely by Cote d’Ivore and Tunisia; the two teams jointly occupy 2nd place in Africa. here are some sport center and fitness and gym, you can check out by clicking on the link below. http://ngex.com/bd/c/Sports%20&%20Fitness/Sports%20Management http://ngex.com/bd/c/Sports%20&%20Fitness/Gym%20&%20Fitness%20Centers/ 1 Like

Maybe I have an unrealistic view of what a child with Nigerian parents ought to be like, or what a child generally should be like, hence I'm a little let down by him atimes.

Injury cannot stop the "inevitable" beastly rise of Osimhen in the bundesliga and in europe as a whole. Injury may delay but cannot deny. Keep your head up Osimhen... You'll be back soon enough. ![]() Nigeria's Next World Class #SuperStriker #Victor "The Ox" Osimhen #Ox9 ......................................................................... Wolfsburg Wonderkid Osimhen Undergoes Surgery, Doubt For Super Eagles Friendly Games ![]() Nigeria youth international Victor Osimhen is a huge doubt for the Super Eagles in their friendly games, after undergoing surgery on a meniscus tear suffered in training with Wolfsburg. The highly rated forward who finished as top scorer at the U-17 World Cup in Chile last year, was operated upon last week according to authoritative German sports news outfit Kicker. A time frame for his return wasn’t stated but checks by Owngoalnigeria.com on issues to do with injuries related to meniscus usually takes between 3-4 months to be fixed up. However if a meniscetomy is done on the patient, which is usually the case for less severe cases, the patient is expected to be out for 3-4 weeks. Judging by the above Osimhen could miss the Super Eagles friendly games scheduled for January and March next year. Already he has trained with the senior national team of Nigeria, and he impressed coach Gernot Rohr in training ahead of the dead rubber AFCON 2017 tie against Tanzania although he didn’t get to play in the game. Osimhen is not yet eligible to play for the German side until January next year when he clocks 18 (on december 29), but this current setback is expected to delay his debut for the team.

Ex- Barcelona Ace (Amuneke) Backs Move For Chelsea Victor Moses – He Will Be An Upgrade On Sergi Roberto ![]() Following news of Barcelona’s interest in signing Chelsea wingback Victor Moses, a former player of the Catalan giants has urged the club to firm up their interest in the 25 year old Nigerian. Sport reports that Barcelona have watched Moses three times in his newly adopted right wing-back role at Chelsea and now believe that he is one of the men who could help them solve their defensive frailties on the right side of defence. The report also claimed that Barca officials have been surprised with how Moses has adapted to his new wing back role with so much “depth.” Coach of the Nigeria U-20 team Emmanuel Amuneke, who was on the books of Barcelona from 1996-2000, said Moses will be an upgrade on current wingback Sergi Roberto. ”Barcelona usually don’t play with regular full backs, they play with wingbacks. That said Moses is one of the best wingbacks in the world right now”, Amuneke told Owngoalnigeria.com. ”It’s a transfer that ticks the right boxes. He will be an upgrade on Sergi Roberto, even though Roberto hasn’t done badly, but remember he is a midfielder while Moses is a winger turn full back, that gives him an edge”. Moses has made 11 league appearances for Chelsea this season, scoring twice and weighing in with an assist. He also has an 89 per cent tackle success rate, five blocked shots and 10 interceptions since he began playing as a wing-back. The Nigerian winger has a contract with Chelsea until 2019.

OBI: I’VE WRITTEN MY NAME IN CHELSEA’S HISTORY, I WAS PART OF THE BEST MOMENTS ![]() Chelsea won a Champions League and FA Cup double in 2012 a moment that remains the best in the club’s history according to midfielder, Mikel Obi. The Nigeria International , who is the second longest serving player having been a key member of the squad for the past 10 seasons. He insists he has written his name in the annals of the EPL club and so exercises no fears over his future with January approaching. Mikel played in the final of the UCL and was named man of the match. He also featured and helped the Blues win the Europa League the following season. He said though as a player he wants to win more titles with the club, however, he has no regrets if the union ends this season. The 29-year-old admits he wouldn’t want to leave the club under acrimonious circumstances after 11 years and hopes for an amicable end to his contract with the EPL club.

Conte Breaks Silence Over Mikel’s Lack Of Game Time At Chelsea ![]() Coach of English Premier League side Antonio Conte has broken his silence over the continual absence of John Obi Mikel in the match day squad of Chelsea. The captain of the Super Eagles of Nigeria is yet to make a competitive appearance at Chelsea under the Italian manager, in what is his eleventh season at Stamford Bridge. Unlike previous pre match conference, where the manager hardly mentioned or talked about the 29 year old, he confirmed in his press conference ahead of the game against Tottenham Hotspur that Mikel is injured. “John Terry and Obi Mikel are not available,’ Conte reported. ‘John has a muscular problem in his gluteus, and he will be out for maybe two or three weeks, I don’t know. It’s a pity because he recovered very well from his last injury and now he needs to stop again. ‘Obi is recovering from a muscular problem and in the next week he will train with us.’ Source: http://owngoalnigeria.com/2016/11/25/conte-breaks-silence-over-mikels-lack-of-game-time-at-chelsea/ |

Leon Balogun Presence At Mainz 05 Should Sway Austrian-Born Onisiwo To Switch Allegiance To Nigeria ![]() As coach of the Super Eagles of Nigeria Gernot Rohr continue to strengthen his team with Nigerian players born abroad, a soccer aficionado Patrick Famoyin has advised the coach to target Austrian international Karim Onisiwo of Mainz 05. Onisiwo is teammate to Super Eagles defender Leon Balogun and Patrick believes his presence at the club should ease the stress of trying to convince the 24 year old to play for Nigeria. ”Balogun’s presence at Mainz 05 should give us an edge over Austria in the race to cap Onisiwo at senior level. But you know the coach has to interested in him, before Balogun can approach him”, Patrick said to Owngoalnigeria.com. ”He will be a good addition to the Super Eagles, he is young, playing for a top league team and also in the Europa league, I expect Nigeria to at least try for him”.

Mujtahida: LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY HITMEN I coined that phrase because of my admiration of the Special Talents of Success, Osimhen and Iheanacho. I see Nigeria ending up with a three man attack with these three. Similar to the MSN of Barcelona. With Iwobi being a powerful creative force behind them. I have always tipped Osimhen for upfront and Iheanacho ending up as a right sided hitman like Messi. 2 Likes |

Sir Mujtahida possibly didnt see where you and I laid out in details the future of the Super Eagles attack..... You coined the name "League of Extraordinary Hitmen". I called them the "ISIS" initially prior to Rio. But then substraction of Simon Moses to the bench and Osimhen coming in makes it more like an "ISIO"... Loollll This league will rain fire, blood, sand, thunderstorms and Brimstones on all oppositions. A possible deadlier-than-MSN shall reign over African and world football at international level if we gel well and strike a synergy so powerful it will make messi and C.Ronaldo wanna come back after they retire....... ![]() I HAVE ALWAYS USED ONE WORD TO DESCRIBE THIS BEAUTY AND AWESOMENESS RISING SINCE MY DEBUT ON NL....... ![]() E-A-R-T-H-Q-U-A-K-E ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! *rub palms* [img]http://media0./media/o6x9tX1Csr7gs/200_s.gif[/img] TheGoodJoe: 1 Like |
