Simy "The Gangling Tallingo" Nwankwo strikes Again!!!!!!!! He scored what proved to be the winner in Crotone's 2-1 away win at Sampdoria in the Italian Serie A. He came on as a sub in the 75th min and struck five mins later to hand Crotone all three points. Well done Lad.... Remember the name people... Simy Nwankwo. Did great things in Portugal last season before moving to the Serie A. Just last week I believe, he scored for Crotone to rescue them from defeat in a game that ended 1-1 (and he did that from the bench as well I think). 1 Like |

Late fight against relegation. Crotone need to displace Empoli in other to escape relegation. Empoli also won away to AC Milan. 5 games to go. TheSuperNerd: |

Reports: Sunderland tracking Chelsea's Tammy Abraham, but Middlesbrough lead loan race Middlesbrough and Sunderland are reportedly battling for Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham. Bristol City's Tammy Abraham celebrates scoring According to the Daily Mail , Sunderland boss David Moyes has been checking on Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham's fortunes at Bristol City – but The Mirror claim that Middlesbrough currently lead the race or his signature. article continues below Abraham, 19, has come up through the ranks with Chelsea having joined the club way back in 2004, but he's made just two first-team appearances for the Blues . The England Under-21 international was farmed out on loan to Bristol City last summer, and he has endured a remarkable season with the Robins, smashing 26 goals in 46 appearances for Lee Johnson's men. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0-T8Scc_c8 Abraham's time at the City Ground has sparked suggestions that he could push far a first-team spot at Stamford Bridge next season – but another loan deal could beckon for the 6ft 4in striker. The Daily Mail report that Sunderland boss David Moyes watched Blackburn Rovers' 1-1 draw with Bristol City on Monday, not only to watch Rovers striker Sam Gallagher, but also to see Abraham in action. Abraham scored the opening goal of the game, adding to his sensational tally for the season as Sunderland attempt to lure him to the Stadium of Light in what would surely be a loan deal, with the Black Cats preparing for relegation to the Championship. Bristol City's Tammy Abraham looks dejected However, The Mirror report that Middlesbrough are in fact leading the race for Abraham, with Boro making a request to take the teenager on loan next season. Not only have Boro struggled for goals this season, but Alvaro Negredo is only on loan, and Rudy Gestede and Patrick Bamford have yet to impress since arriving in January, meaning a move for Abraham could make sense, given that they may also be dealing with relegation this season.

EVERTON IN POLE POSITION TO SIGN 26-GOAL STRIKER, THREE DEALS POSSIBLE INCLUDING STUNNING PART-EXCHANGE By Harry Sykes Everton are in pole position to sign Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham, according to a report. The Sun on Sunday claim the Merseysiders are ahead of Leicester and newly-promoted Brighton in the race to sign the highly-rated forward, who has scored prolifically while on loan at Bristol City this season. It is said that three deals are possible for Everton to sign Abraham, a permanent transfer, a loan or a sensational part-exchange in which he is used as a “sweetener” in a move that took Romelu Lukaku to Chelsea. The Sun on Sunday report that Everton are open to landing the 19-year-old either permanently or initially just for a season like they did with Lukaku four years ago. The Belgium international moved to Goodison Park on loan from Chelsea in 2013 before signing for £28million 12 months later and has developed into one of the Premier League’s most feared front men. It has been widely reported that the west Londoners want to re-sign Lukaku this summer even though Everton have slapped a £100million price tag on him. Abraham is also earning rave review for his form for Championship side Bristol City, scoring 26 goals in all competitions, including 23 in the league. The teenager netted the opener for City in their 3-2 win over Barnsley on Saturday as they took a significant step towards retaining their second-tier status.

Chelsea could make stunning striker trade to land Everton star Romelu Lukaku CHELSEA could try and use Tammy Abraham to prise Romelu Lukaku away from Everton, according to reports.By Joel Watson / Published 23rd April 2017 Chelsea are keen to snatch Romelu Lukaku away from Everton Lukaku has long been the subject of speculation as he’s refused to sign a contract extension with the Toffees. And he’s been linked with a return to former club Chelsea. Antonio Conte’s side could use another striker as they prepare for a Champions League campaign next season. Tammy Abraham has been on fire for Bristol City this season Now The Sun reckon the Italian manager could make an intriguing trade deal to land his man. They say Everton are interested in signing Chelsea loanee Abraham, who’s been impressive for Championship side Bristol City this season. And Chelsea would consider offering him up in part-exchange for Lukaku. The Sun’s report says Chelsea aren’t keen to lose one of their most talented young players and would rather send him out on loan again. But if Lukaku were to arrive at Stamford Bridge, the chances of him getting any meaningful game time would be slim, making a trade a logical option. Abraham has scored 26 goals for Bristol so far this campaign, including one today in a 3-2 win over Barnsley. Note: This news report was from yesterday Source: http://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/608024/Romelu-Lukaku-Chelsea-trade-Tammy-Abraham-Everton 1 Like 1 Share |

There's something special at Leicester City - players will NOT leave Kasper Schmeichel, Wilfred Ndidi and Wes Morgan after the win against Sevilla Wilfred Ndidi insists there is "something special" about Leicester City and believes the club will keep hold of their star players. The 20-year-old has quickly established himself as a key member of Leicester's first-choice line-up following his £16million move in January. So impressive have his performances been that there has already been speculation that City will face a battle to hold on to the Nigeria international in the summer. Schmeichel and Mahrez have been linked with moves Kasper Schmeichel and Riyad Mahrez have also been linked with moves away in recent weeks, but Ndidi believes City will keep the squad together despite being unable to offer European football next season following their Champions League exit at the hands of Atletico Madrid. "I think our best players will stay," said Ndidi. "I am very happy here, it is more than I expected. "I've not known a team like Leicester before, we are something special. The team is doing good now and we are happy about it." Ndidi has been active in killing off speculation about his future. Earlier this month, reports from Nigeria claimed to have quoted Ndidi's agent as saying the midfielder would leave if Manchester United came knocking. Ndidi took to Twitter to quash the speculation, saying he had never heard of the agent who was quoted and insisted he was "200 per cent behind Leicester". 'Everyone loves it' at the club.... Leicester fell short of a place in the Champions League semi-final as their spirited draw against Atletico Madrid saw them unable to overturn the 1-0 deficit from the first leg. But while City's Champions League adventure is over for at least another season, Ndidi believes the current squad have what it takes to be back in Europe. Wilfred Ndidi celebrates after scoring at Stoke "The aim in the future is to get more European football," said Ndidi. "We are not in Europe next season, so we can fight everything next season to get there. "We tried our best but it was unfortunate we didn't get the goals (against Atletico)," he said. 'It was privilege for us' "We felt we could get back into it and we created chances but they were blocked. "I feel good about the game because we gave all our effort and it was a good experience." Atletico boss Diego Simeone embraced the City players at full-time, before saying in his post-match press conference that his side had been "living in fear" at Leicester's attacking prowess. "Simone spoke to me afterwards and was like 'great game, great fight' because we did well," said Ndidi. "It meant a lot and it was a privilege for us."

I hope Arsenal beats Man City in the end.....

Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by TheSuperNerd(m): 5:32pm On Apr 23, 2017 |
Sir Tbaba.... I found it..... Fifa made the adjustment last year in March saying a fourth sub can be used during extra time. Then The English FA decided to apply the rule for only the Quarter finals, Semi finals and final of the ongoing FA cup. This is what I read sometime last year which is why I wasn't so sure... but I knew a new rule was made about a fourth sub. http://www.thefa.com/news/2016/jul/27/new-competition-rules-allow-fourth-sub-in-extra-time-260716 http://www.newstalk.com/reader/47.302/68193/0/ tbaba1234: |

Why are you so much against The Foreign-borns? Are they not Nigerians too? Besides Tammy is full-blooded Nigerian from Delta state.... Pinnick knows his dad so well. Tamuno Oghenetega is his native name.... Tammy is the name gotten from his name Tamuno.... This lad is bound to play for Nigeria. Just wait till after the U-20 WC.... na wa ooo... If England fight, we fight back.... should we be scared of England?? They have Kane, Vardy, Rooney, And so on.... so we have a huge chance with Tammy.

I have seen how much Iheanacho has improved on the 'Drilling' ground. Zero impact. The only time he got into position his first touch (his major negative) set him back.

At least.... Iheanacho enter record books today. Becoming the first player to be used as a fourth sub in the English FA Cup or top tier of English Football. Although a club called Ayr United had previously become the first side in Britain to make such a change, in a Scottish Cup clash with Queen's Park in January. |
