Obaje Breaks Silence Over Spartak Moscow Move – I Did A Two Hour Medical After Scoring Twice In Test Games But….. The top scorer in the recently concluded Nigeria Professional Football League Godwin Obaje of Wikki Tourist has broken his silence over the true state of his proposed move to Spartak Moscow of Russia. Various reports has claimed that the 19 year old failed his medical while some are of the opinion that he didn’t impress the coaches during his trial period, but the forward insist none of that happened. In an EXCLUSIVE chat with Owngoalnigeria.com in Kaduna, when he came to watch Wikki Tourist pre season game against local side KJ United, the soft spoken forward lifted the lid on his planned move abroad. ” I scored twice in a test game despite the cold, which I must say wasn’t easy for me to cope, but God almighty made it possible for me to do well in the game” Obaje told Owngoalnigeria.com. ” The club invited me over for a medical which lasted two hours, they say am fine I don’t have any issue but instead there are issues surrounding my impending transfer base on negotiations with my club in Nigeria. ” Am shock to read that I failed trials, some said I failed medicals. I have the medical report here with me to prove people doubting my story, but I won’t go that far. ” There’s a time frame for Spartak Moscow and I to conclude talks on a deal, if it doesn’t happen, I have other options lined up which the world will get to know very soon”. http://owngoalnigeria.com/2016/12/03/obaje-breaks-silence-over-spartak-moscow-move-i-did-a-two-hour-medical-after-scoring-twice-in-test-games-but/ 1 Like |

German-Nigerian 1860 Munich Defender Uduokhai Wins MOTM Award As Super Eagles Call Up Looms Highly rated German born Nigerian defender Felix Uduokhai won the Man Of The Match Award (MOTM) after a commanding performance for 1860 Munich in their 1-0 win over Dynamo Dresden. Uduokhai frustrated the forwards of Dynamo Dresden with interceptions, blocks and tackles to help his side keep a clean sheet and pick up all three points. Rated as one of the best upcoming defenders in Germany, he has made six appearances this season for the 2. Bundesliga side in what is his first season with the first team. The 19 year old is one of the players coach of the Super Eagles of Nigeria Gernot Rohr is keeping a close eye on for subsequent invitation to the Nigeria national team, even though he has played for Germany at youth level. However Nigeria are hopeful that the German coach of the team will be able to convince him to have a change of heart and represent the Super Eagles at senior level. http://owngoalnigeria.com/2016/12/03/german-nigerian-1860-munich-defender-uduokhai-wins-motm-award-as-super-eagles-call-up-looms/ 1 Like |

Icon4s: The game was ove when KDB missed an open net. I can't be too hard about the scuffle becos he was standing up for Aguero. Infact i believe this will gain him more respect from his team. I expect them to rally around him and for him to score alot. 1 Like |

Got my account back! Big shout out to thegoodjoe for calling on the powers that be and to semid4lyfe for responding appropriately. I appreciate your efforts @Icon4s, I no watch the match o, I dey school. Just saw two red cards on live scores, I come dey wonder which kain gbege happen. Aguero take style no get sense sha, just dey collect unnecessary red card. As for Kelechi, like I said, moment of madness. Heard twas Pep that pulled him out of the fray? (Before dem red him two forwards ). He doesn't come off as someone with a temper or anything like that, so hopefully, he assessed his behaviour later in the day and realised his error. @kentAire, yes o, na me be that 2 Likes |

safarigirl: I think he is easily frustrated sha. There was this thing he did during our match with Egypt, I think the ref blew for a foul and he threw the ball away, a yellow card offence all day long but he got away with it. He needs to work on that. By the way, which university? |

safarigirl: Ok i see. Bt at times i wonder how u students of these days cope combining watching of football with lectures/studies. During our time DSTV no even dey sef talkless of watching live EPL matches. I remember we used to watch UEFA champions league on AIT back then in the 90s in Lagos and na only one match u fit watch. The only other competitions we watched then were FIFA WCs, AFCON & Olympics which were nt yearly competitions. That time na jacking sure pass if u want to excel. I wish u excellence my sister. |

TheGoodJoe: I do not know Pogba personally but I was privy to a lot of the back room shenanigans that were going on. Pogba's ability was never in doubt however, Ferge considering his ego accepted adverse reports from some of the coaching staff who had different agendas. However, I did meet his twin older brothers one was playing quite shockingly for Crew and one was at Sedem in France. And i tell you that's not the story they told me. There is so much hidden agenda, who is your agent and out right deal cutting. |

A certain Nathan Ake scored the winning goal for Bournemouth. He was loan at Watford and now at Bournemouth. Playing his second season of Top flight professional football. The question is should he have waited in Chelsea, training and learning from the top managers or get some football under his belt? I think that going on loan was a good decision for him. There is a good chance that he will be snatched by a premier league team soon or Chelsea will give him a chance. 1 Like |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by TheGoodJoe(m): 7:26pm On Dec 04, 2016 |
tbaba1234: Nathan Ake was another player who showed promise under Benitez. Liked him because he looks so much like a young Ruud Guulit. What I am talking about is not just playing time but becoming a World beater. When we talk of players like Thiago Alcantara, Pedro, Busquets they stood out from their peers. Ake is not in that level and I do not want to see Iheanacho operating on a winning goal as his achievement. I am talking of creating World football stars like Suarez, Forlan and Falcao. Guidance and nurturing plays a big role in such growth. Ake unfortunately like most talented Chelsea youngsters, lost out because of the quick fire sacking of managers at Chelsea. |

AIG07: Well, i watched the full 90mins of that game. Ibe was a second half sub., just at commencement of second half. Truth be told *In TheGoodJoe's voice* 'Aibe' is a 'Hype'. I only saw a flash of him in the whole 45mins. He tried to make 1 run at the edge of Liverpool's 18yards box bt was dispossesed. See, Ibe is nt as good as any of the wings options we have in the Super Eagles. That is why i have problems with all these crave for Anglo-Nigerian players. We should invite them bc they are English born and elligible to play for us? They should be invited only if they are better than the players we currently parade. Who is 'Aibe' better than from this list of wings options: V. Moses Alex Iwobi Moses Simon Ahmed Musa Imoh Ezekiel Isaac Success Recall also that Etebor and Iheanacho can be played as wings options. Even if we form 3 Super Eagles teams Ibe cannot make any of the teams. Let us go after better prospects abeg. 2 Likes |
