Eze has gained a lot of experience and cemented his position in the central defender....A complete and disciplined defennder. And what an excellent ball player. |

Eze was lucky no to have gotten a penalty...Ghanaians were cheated there. Eze is a bit reckless some time. He has ways to go but improvements has been recorded. In summary,we didn't play too well,in fact we haven't play well in this tournament. Ghanaians and the Siera Leonians has impressed me the most. |

Liverpool fans were joyous over the news that 'the OX' would be joining them from Arsenal. Chamberlain's arrival brought about a sense of hope and assurance to this current Liverpool side. Maybe, just maybe it would be their year at last. Fast forward to 5 games into the season and there are rumors in some corners that Chamberlain might be cursed. Chamberlain last game for Arsenal was against his current side, Liverpool. In that match, he was powerless to prevent his side from the 4-nil spanking at the hands of Arsenal. When he was subbed off, he had a look in his face that suggested he had just played the last game for the club. The fans feared so too, and their fears were confirmed when it was announced that the player had joined Liverpool. Although his send forth was not ideal, he will always have a place in the heart of the Arsenal fans. 'We are the biggest winners' thought the Liverpool fans. Little did they know that Chamberlain's arrival would bring about a stretch of bad luck. More details https://grass-sports..com/2017/09/what-is-up-with-alex-oxlade-chamberlain.html |

Previous winners of the award include Wayne Rooney, Lionel Messi, Sergio Agüero, Paul Pogba, Isco and Renato Sanches. Full Nominees List Aaron Martin, Espanyol; Jean-Kevin Augustin, RB Leipzig; Rodrigo Bentacur, Juventus; Steven Bergwijn, PSV; Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Everton; Federico Chiesa, Fiorentina; Ousmane Dembele, Barcelona; Amadou Diawara, Napoli; Kasper Dolberg, Ajax; Gianluigi Donnarumma, Milan; Gabriel Jesus, Manchester City; Joe Gomez, Liverpool; Benjamin Henrichs, Bayer Leverkusen; Borja Mayoral, Real Madrid; Kylian Mbappé, Paris Saint-Germain; Emre Mor, Celta Vigo; Reece Oxford, Borussia Monchengladbach; Christian Pulisic, Borussia Dortmund; Marcus Rashford, Manchester United; Allan Saint-Maximim, Nice; Dominic Solanke, Liverpool; Theo Hernandez, Real Madrid; Youri Tielemans, Monaco; Enes Unal, Villarreal; Kyle Walker-Peters, Tottenham. **Ifeanyi Emmanuel Source: http://www.allnigeriasoccer.com/read_news.php?nid=24691 |

16-Year-Old Nigerian Goalkeeper Trains With Arsenal First Team Pre-Doncaster ![]() Talented Nigerian goalkeeper Arthur Okonkwo trained with the first team of Arsenal on Tuesday, ahead of Wednesday night's League Cup clash with Doncaster Rovers at the Emirates Stadium. According to Arsenal youth team expert Jeorge Bird , Okonkwo was spotted training with the first team players at London Colney as the squad stepped up their preparations for tomorrow's third round tie against The Rovers. Thus, there's a possibility that the 16-year-old could make his debut for Arsenal on Wednesday, but it must be said that the chances are very slim. Manager Arsene Wenger is expected to make some changes to the squad that impressed in the goalless draw with Chelsea on Sunday, and Nigerian attack-minded players Alex Iwobi and Chuba Akpom are in line to make the match day squad, having participated in full training this morning. Okonkwo has yet to debut for Arsenal in the U18 Premier League, he has been on the bench on four occasions this term. The highly-rated glovesman, who has caps for England youth teams, is the undisputed first-choice goalkeeper for Arsenal U16s. **Ifeanyi Emmanuel Photo Credit : flickr.com Source: http://www.allnigeriasoccer.com/read_news.php?nid=24690 1 Like |
