Victor Moses will not make his second Premier League appearance of the new season in Chelsea's game week three clash against Newcastle United at St James' Park this afternoon.

One of the big names omitted from The Blues squad is Moses, who quit international football eleven days ago in order to focus on his family and club.

The Blues number fifteen is behind Pedro, Eden Hazard and Willian in Maurizio Sarri's pecking order of wingers and the trio have been included in the 18, with the Spaniard and Belgian starting, while the Brazilian is on the bench.

Chelsea's Nigerian fans took to Twitter to question the decision of Moses to quit the Super Eagles when there's uncertainty over his future with Chelsea following the arrival of Sarri, who prefers to play in a 4-3-3 formation.

Here are some selected Tweets :

@Benco14 : ''Victor Moses can’t even make the bench again? Hehehehehe seems days of guaranteed shirts are over, Willian knows he has to be exceptional to keep Hazard on the bench,sorry Pedro, but the diminutive Spaniard scores a lot. Between Cahill,Luiz and Christensen thats the final spot.''

@adetolafaruk : ''I look at @ChelseaFC line up and bench, then i realised @VictorMoses is sliding away from the team and dude quits Nigeria because he wants to focus on a team that has shifted its focus away from you. @NGSuperEagles is no man's land, soldier go, soldier come, Barracks remain.''

@0luwo : ''victor moses didn't even make chelsea's bench for the match against Newcastle.Someone needs to remind Sarri that moses retired from international football to focus on club football''.

@Waju_ : ''Victor Moses retired from International football to focus on Chelsea but now he can’t even get into the 18 man squad. This God I serve �

@debornair99 : ''Victor Moses should get another club ASAP.....Didn’t even make the bench''.

@Sam_Debayo : ''Victor Moses not even on the Bench. #NEWCHE''.

@jamesatts : ''@VictorMoses could not even make it to the bench? Is this the beginning of the end for him?''

@BusayoDurojaye : ''Victor Moses is not even on the bench. Is he injured? He only just retired from International football to focus on club football o. ''

@MrVincredible : ''Hazard and Kovacic finally starting. RLC on the bench. Victor Moses NOWHERE to be found.''

@ndabagi : ''Victor Moses not even making the bench i hope he is fine ?''

Ok

(Stupid Nigerians Blast Victor Moses should have been more apt as the Title of this thread!)

We pray all of you will never go through in life what Victor Moses went through as a young boy.

A young boy came back home to meet his Pastor father and mother slaughtered and their house burnt down because they are Christians and he was able to leave the country miraculously!
And some years later he still came back to the country to play for the National team!!

And y'all open your annoying and cursed mouth to lash out and abuse him when he says he's no longer playing?!

If you want what befell him to happen to you too, keep on lashing out at this strong willed patriot of a young man.
What goes around comes around!

Annoying tins everywhere!!

We Rise!

Exactly why he had to quit

Na wa for naija pipu oo izit dia "Make" or dia "Bench" ??

Jobless Nigerians talking

see kettle they call pot black

Was thinking the same after seeing the line up today but then it's his decision. Maybe he had a row with the Nigerian coach Rohr, who knows? He might even still come back to the National team. Not the first time someone would retire and change his mind.

Don’t spoil Home To Impress The street. ���

He still has a contract and there is a good chance they may need him tmrw.... He is a decent player!

Nigerians and reaction

he knows what he's doing.... BTW I need a girlfriend. been single since I was born and I'm 24 now.

The Afonja up there is up to something

Don't get buried in a room with no head on your shoulder.

I don talk my own

the same Moses that could not rescue Nigerian team is the same player that abandoned super eagles.

headlines of tomorrow papers should be,Victor Moses dump the national team to focus on Chelsea bench...

Nigerians and their bad mouth. I guess he saw it coming, hence he decided to focus and work hard to win back his first team shirt.

Cutoris nko abi na tortoise abi na giraffe



U leave Chelsea go dey chop bench for madrid


Hmm

They are all mad. Nonsense

Can he play Sarriball?
