After Haaland in the squad, I believe the dream could happen. the team will get stronger if Haaland can organize his new partner Julian Alvarez, from River Plate in front, only if Pep implements a new strategy with 2 attackers (3-5-2). but if impossible, Haaland will be a single attacker like in Dortmund, even though that position is very risky for to him get injured.
That's right, the arrival of their new player, Erling Haaland will add to their strength. But we also have to consider other teams that are also strengthening themselves to compete in the domestic league and also the Champions League. For several seasons Manchester City have been the favorites for it, but it is the strength of their rivals' luck that has forced them to bury their hopes. The Champions League is the toughest football competition to win and each season we have at least 5 or 6 favorites to win this trophy. Let's be realistic, we can't say that the best team wins this competition every time, but the team who is the most prepared, and has the necessary mental strength and concentration during a very hard season. I have to admit that it is unexpected to me that Manchester City has not yet won this competition but it seems to me that Pep is also partly responsible. It seems to me that he played too carefully in all the key games and changed his strategy and game plan too much. Yes I will agree with you that Pep Guardiola is also to be blamed for their failure to win the champions league trophy in past years. They have the players, they are always prepared but the always lose concentration at the finishing stage, at the point when winning should be the main focus they always fall off and end up losing the goal so he is also to blame for their failure to win the champions league |

while some managers fail to be productive with big names for example Mauricio Pochettino did well at Tottenham which earned him the job at PSG but so far has not lived up to expectation and news getting to me today read he has been sacked by PSG so its one thing to manage a top club and another to bring out the best in them.
Mauricio Pochettino isn't a manager I idolize like the rest, I still don't understand why PSG went for him. The only reason I could think about is that, there was no available manager. Mauricio Pochettino isn't a good manager in my books and not fit to manage a big culb. He did poorly at Tottenham which lead to him been sack. Since I have seen him managed, I haven't seen any trophy he lifted. The only reason Tottenham were still in the top four discussion with as because of Harry Kane scoring record. We could see other players picking form as other managers took over at Tottenham and shifted the attention from Harry Kane. During Joseph Mourinho season we saw players like Dele Ali pick up form and also currently as conte is managing the Club players like Son has been performing more than Harry Kane, good managers are supposed to bring out the best in players not profiting from the skills of a particular player. We have seen this problem of players performing below expectation in many clubs. A good manager is supposed to bring out the best in players and not focused on recruiting only already made players, you should be able to manage the ones available and bring out the best in them. I also agree that Pochettino is not good enough, PSG have the best players in the world to compete and win the champions league but have performed poorly under Pochettino. |

Marcus Rashford wants to fight for he's place under the new coach.
Sancho is currently training personally, also Eric Baily.
I think Manchester will do better next season under the new coach.
Can they just dump Maguire and Shaw ?
I think the problem with Rashford's drop in form is inconsistency and this problem can be see in more players in Manchester United team. The team is currently lacking team spirit and the atmosphere around the club needs to change because the kind of aura around is not motivating atall. This a team problem not just Rashford |

Nigerians can win comfortably now because they have recalled some quality players,and the kind of formation the coach is using now is the best for them, Osimhen upfront is very good, and very fast,making every defender to be terrified when he is coming with the ball.
Right now the team is in a good shape,and and they have a winning mentality which makes them have the confidence of winning any team that comes their way.
Isn't this the exact same thing we say about every new manager that Nigeria hires. I remember when the previous coach Gernot Rohr took over management of the team. Everyone was praising him but after few games things return to normal. What we need to judge this new coach is trophy and not just good games. The country Nigeria just played against are very small and not football oriented. It more like Norwich playing against Manchester City, everyone knows City (Nigeria) will destroy them. While I must admit, the goal margin is awesome and them evening keeping a clean sheet was the icing on the cake. Now we can top the group for the qualifiers easier and hopefully the new players can build their chemistry and become a strong force as they ones were. Lol I really don't know what to say at the moment about this Super eagles team coming into the Nations league with a new coach cause other coaches have come in same manner and performed well at the beginning of their term and flogged at the end. They had a really good game against a weaker side but they play well, controlled the game in both halves, kept a clean sheet and looked promising. If they can continue to win games comfortably like this then its a really good improvement so lets just watch and see if they can keep up this momentum through out the competition. |

To me, Richarlison should leave Everton immediately. He is a special player to me and he shouldn't waste his most productive ages at Everton now. If Everton were a solid team and they achieved something in the league in the near past then I would say he should stay. But the scenario now is completely the opposite. Everton hardly managed to stay in the Premier League. Richarlison should go to one of the alternatives, Tottenham or Chelsea. It is up to him to choose which one of them and I hope his choice would bring him success in the future.
It is every players wish to be part of a good club with good history, play good football, win trophies and make history and have their name written down to be remembered and talked about in the future. Everton is a great club but at Everton I don't see Richarlison fulfilling those wishes, he is already at the peak of his career and if he cannot achieve this things now when will he? He has an opportunity to move to a more bigger and better club with more opportunities to win silver wares and I think its an opportunity he should grab and make good use of cause he is not getting any younger. |

Real Madrid needs to get new players because to build and strong team to compete. I read in a speculation that Real Madrid has allocated 400 million dollars budget for the transfer. I read today in a speculation that Cristiano Ronaldo was on Real Madrid's agenda.
There were some rumours regarding Cristiano Ronaldo to join Real Madrid in this transfer window but it was gone already in a short time. If this time is for real then I'm very excited about it already now. Cristiano Ronaldo has had his best years with Real Madrid so far surely. Therefore it sounds great to have him back there. But on the other hand this can be a problematic thing for Benzema. Because he is playing as a centre-forward now and he might have to play as a second striker or something like that when Ronaldo comes. Benzema has earned maximum respect for Real Madrid and as the current face of Real Madrid. I don't think it will be a problem for Benzema if CR7 comes back to Real Madrid. In addition, Cristiano Ronaldo is a name that attracts attention in the fans and in the media. Real Madrid failed in the transfer of Kylian Mbappé and only a big name like Crisitiana Ronaldo can close this file. It doesn't really matter whether they succeed with the transfer of Mbappe to Real Madrid. Real Madrid is a great club and they have good players already even in the absence of Mbappe the team is good enough to complete in the UCL and any other elite level. Karim Benzema has already made a mark in the club that will go down in history forever and even if Ronaldo returns it wouldn't be a problem at all. |

Though City were favorites to win the league, I won't entirely blame Guardiola for not meeting the expectation of the club and the fans, yes it is the duty of the manager to recruit and put together the team to compete and win trophies which he obviously is doing but not to the required standard but I think the players also have the duty to themselves to put in their best and support the goal of the club, they have to go for it and do everything possible and putting there best to achieving that goal, I think it should be team work not just Guardiola.

I'm not sure if Juventus would like to add another striker to the team but they should do that. Because Dybala is leaving the team and Morata's loan contract is ending too. They have Moise Kean too beside Vlahovic but they might not be satisfied with this situation still. I wonder what formation they will use too. If they prefer a formation with two strikers then they will definitely need to bring a decent striker here. If they will prefer one striker then they can delay this striker transfer.
Juventus have decided to sign Pogba, which will strengthen their midfield. But at the same time they need to strengthen their forwards. Since Dybala is leaving the team, Juventus need to replace him with an experienced striker. If the squad is not stable, they will not be able to fight for the title next season. Paul Pogba will really be a good addition to the Juventus squad,considering the fact that he still has more years in his favour,and he is undoubtedly one of the best in his position.He might have been fed up with the way Manchester United are playing,and would desire to change club.It was really bad that Manchester United dropped form to the extend that they were not able to qualify for the champions league.Loosing Paul Pogba again to Juventus will really be a bad news to them and the fans,but let's hope to see Man U make more quality signings this season to enable them move up to the top of the table. Pogba joining Juventus is not certain yet as rumours have it that Juventus are highly interested in his services in the next campaign, Manchester united have realeased the player so it is much likely to see him return to juventus than joining Manchester city. |

The bonds between Manchester United players are very bad. If Erik Ten Hag can build a bond between the players, if the understanding between the players is good, then of course Manchester United's performance will be better. And Manchester United will be able to fight for the title next season as well. However, coach Erik Ten Hag must prove his worth. I think Manchester United should have a whole new formation and a new strategy.
The bond between players must be prioritized in the competition because if you don't care about each other it will damage the cooperation between players, I believe Manchester United players are not that bad about the player bond, but the coach must establish a new strategy of prioritizing cooperation for the purpose of winning from good cooperation. I think the problem at Manchester United is that connection between the players, it is very important to build team spirit and play as a team. They also need to connect with the fans. I would suggest Erik Ten Hang changing the energy around the stadium and lifting up the team spirit just as Mikel Arteta did at Arsenal after joining that should bring a major boost to the team. |

Nigeria should be happy honestly because it would have been to bad for Nigeria Tome have won Nigeria. We know how Nigeria are trying to be stable for a longtime, we really need to celebrate this victory. This victory might ginger Nigeria up to perform better to other teams in their next match.
Nigeria Super Eagles is back. They are in top form and unstoppable. Nigerians have been patient enough and they deserve this compensation. The Super Eagles have been breaking the hearts of Nigerian right from the painful loss against Tunisia in the Nations Cup to the unexpected loss to Ghana during the world cup qualifiers. Nigerians deserve this winning and the team made everyone proud. We expect the coach and his technical team to build on this result and make the Super Eagle a threat to other countries. Everything about the team in this match was fantastic but kudos should be given to the attack for the uncommon goal rain. The Super Eagles game was a thriller to watch. The Super Eagles dominated both halves of the game finishing 3 to nil at half time and coming back at second half with better performance to get 7 more goals against their opponents, this shows good improvements from this Super Eagles side who failed to qualify for the world with final qualifying game lost to Ghana. |

Good news for manchester city former defender and Captain, Vincent Company after been appointed as Burnley New manager. Although Kompany have been on the rader of Burnley since May and the newly relegated side thinks now is the time to finalize everything with the Experience Player. Kompany who made 360 apps for his club Manchester city and recorded achievements of 12 trophies including 4 EPL titles. Perhaps he left the team when he ran out of contract and went back to Belgium in 2019 where he was giving a managerial career in Anderlecht.
It is indeed a goodnews having legendary Manchester City defender Vincent Kompany returning back to England on a managerial career and being appointed by just relegated club Burnley. It is a good step in his career and we hope to see good things and improvements in the Burnley team next season. |

I think we are being harsh on the Super Eagles. It's a reason for Nigeria to be happy on this day. The last time Nigeria won 10-1 was in the 90s, so its something to celebrate. Nigeria need two victories to qualify for the African cup of nations. The AFCON is sure for Nigeria if they make good of their chances, the form Nigeria entered the competition with is encouraging. This team that played tonight meet Ghana again, I think Nigeria would come on top

Chelsea still have many options for midfield and defender positions. In my opinion, Chelsea is not optimal in attacking positions because the arrival of Romelu Lulaku does not play much of a role, so Kai Havertz becomes the focus of Chelsea's attack even though his original position is not a center forward.
Since the problem with the coach because of his statement he has been unable to perform optimally. Maybe the thought of him was out of chelsea, even though it had been happening for a long time. When he was given the opportunity to play in the last few games he looked very bad. It seems that he is so heavy with his body. In fact I see his touch is very bad. His controls don't even deserve to play in the EPL. If he's going to leave, I think Tuchel will easily take it off because he doesn't contribute much to chelsea. Chelsea did give the green light to let Lukaku go, because as you said, Lukaku is not contributing to Chelsea. Even Kai Havertz's performance is much better than Lukaku, even though Havertz is not a pure striker. Lukaku should not have returned to the Premier League after his previous failure with Man United. Even though many people around Lukaku reminded him to stay at Inter, but Lukaku was still determined to move back to Chelsea and it turned out that Lukaku's performance was very disappointing. Fortunately, currently Inter are still willing to accept Lukaku back, even though Inter will sign Lukaku on a loan scheme. At least Lukaku's future is getting clearer, because Lukaku will most likely play again next season with Inter. I honestly feel Lukaku doesn't feel loved at Chelsea. At Inter Milan, he was so important and the team was built around him. He is a good attacker and a brilliant finisher. He is strong in the air and with his feet, he probably needs the backing of the team and love. I feel if he gets to feel at home at Chelsea he will be able to give his best to the club and the fans. |

Today's game Rivers Utd - Abia Warriors. It was shocking that Abia warriors scored in the first minute of the game. Rivers United came from behind to win two goals to one. With five games left to play in the season, there are lot of points to pick up before the season ends. Rivers United are far ahead in race to win the league title, I don't think Plateau United can win the title

Egyptian are getting angry from Egypt performance so far in this competition and they are calling for the coach and the federation to be sacked! It isn't acceptable for them to see their team failing vs Ethiopia for several reasons  Egypt has good front,people who can score goals,somebody like Salah is enough for Egypt's attack,but they lack good defenders that can defend the ball from entering the net,they lack a good holding midfielder that can control the midfield,and is not scared of pressure that will mount on him if he holds the ball.And secondly,the inability to fall back when they have lost the ball upfront,it is one of the reasons why they lost that match.Therefore,if they can work on those points,they will win matches on a regular. Egypt national team is the most successful national team in Africa, having won the Africa Cup of Nations seven times, their attacking football is very strong with their top man Mo Salah. Sometimes they play all attack and lack firmness at the back line which also need balancing and a more reliable midfield to hold and keep control of possession for a better play |

Lewandowski at the age of 33 looks very fit and still scoring goals. Barcelona on the other hand want him so bad but having financial issues i really don't know how they plan on pulling this addition. They have a lot of big names with high wages on their neck already but Lewandowski is really good and will excel in any league he moves to next season.

Cameron Football association president Samuel Etoo has rejected Joel matip request to represent the the indomitable lions of Cameron.. matip some years ago had left the national team ..Etoo why reacting to it said only players that qualified the indomitable lions of Cameron for the world cup will be allowed to play the world cup.. He further said that there is no sacred cow that everyone wil be made to adhere to the rules and regulations of the team. Cameroon qualified and will play in group G with the likes of Switzerland...Brazil and Serbia in that group...
This has to be a lesson to the other players who feel they are bigger than the national team.. Etoo further said he was a big player and played for big clubs but always respected the fact that he wore the Cameroon jersey and was always available for every call from the national team..
I think this is a good decision from Cameron Football Association and Samuel Etoo, it clearly shows discipline and love for the country and the team. This is something we clearly miss out in the Super eagles camp. We have had these situations in the Super Eagles where certain players had to be coarsed to come play for their country. Players should be willing to play for the love of the nation and the badge not feeling too important and bigger than their nation they play for. Loyalty to one's country should come first. |

I don't know if money is going to attract him to PSG because it has not been a very good performance by PSG in the last season. Even though they had the best squad in the world they could not do anything in the Champions League against Real Madrid. Zidane obviously would have been the best thing to happen for PSG in recent times but I don't think Zidane wants that. PSG is not the team that has the best squad in the world, but maybe one of the few teams that has reliable players like Messi, Mbappe and Neymar. Zidane is an experienced coach in the Champions League, he might be able to help PSG win it if one day Zidane gets the job. I don't know why PSG didn't try to convince Zidane to take charge of the team for several seasons, Pochettino didn't seem the right person to dedicate the title to PSG. He's smart, but still doesn't have much experience there. PSG's front line if not the most dangerous front line in european football. Zidane should give the management job at PSG a try with his vast experience and knowledge as a football coach to help PSG win not only their ligue 1 but champions league as they are listed as one of the best clubs in the european football. |

TOPIC:-Hackers On The Verge Of Hacking 10 Banks In Nigeria Apprehended In LagosMy Fellow country Men and Women( I no know whether any woman dey among us btw  ). I came across this news today, France-based Nigerian travels to Lagos, leads cyberattacks on 10 banks.To be sincere, the thing really shock me oooh, I was like..."Na like this some of us don get mind reach?". But for the whole story, na one thing interest me pass, and e also teach me something, and this thing na the fact say this hackers tried to hire somebody wey dey work for the infotech department of the bank, they promise the guy 200 million naira plus free visa out of nigeria, see the quote below make you understand why they need the guy. Kolapo Abiodun(kolapo na one of the hackers) is an ex-staff of the bank attached to the infotech department. He contacted and attempted to recruit a current worker of the bank’s infotech department with an offer of N200m and a visa out of Nigeria.
The worker was asked to leave critical gateways open on the bank’s server for the syndicate to gain unauthorised access into the network and move money out using Python application and Zoom.
Wetin be the lesson from this news? This na prove say all this exchange hacks wey we dey see or hear of up and down for crypto, somebody dey always dey in-house wey the provide or grant access of the database to the hackers. Like my people dey talk say " In every twelve, there's a judas. E pain me say they no catch that one wey come all the way from abroad just to come hack Nigerian bank.
