Barrister Sam Okwaraji; Legend of Nigerian Football.

   "I am a lawyer you know, and I signed to play football for your club on certain conditions. But I don't think it included reselling my services to my country. You and the club cannot stop me from playing for my country. Let me tell you, I am going to represent my country in Italy whether you like it or not and I would very much like you to be there".

Mourinho, where is our Mikel Obi?

 
   Don't ask. Yes, it's Mikel. John Mikel Obi. A friend just saw this picture here and quipped "nwanne wetin Mikel dey do for Man United jersey". I laughed. He obviously didn't know Mikel was a Manchester United player for some hours. That period, was when Mikel was our own prodigy before the start of a famous transfer saga that dragged for long . Those of us who watched his games closely felt we had finally come up with that type of graceful footballer we had in aging Kanu Nwankwo and Jay Jay Okocha. Fast forward to today, the same way Yemi Alade is looking for her Johnny, we are looking for our Mikel.

Childish Mourinho, boyish Wenger.

   Since the 'Special One' arrived the shores of England in 2004, it has been from one controversy to the other. Be it known however, that the foul air generated by Mourinho's fart is actually one of the things that make the EPL thick. Personally, I try as much as lies within me never to miss his post match conferences. He will always throw banter. Whenever his team looses, then according to him "the best team lost" and when he wins then "the best team won". Controversial, yet a very interesting character is the man Jose Mourinho.
