José Mourinho's second Chelsea missionary journey ends.
The picture above captures the beginning of José Mourinho and Chelsea woes. On that fateful day, duty conscious Team physio and Doctor both ran into the field at the invitation of centre referee to attend to Eden Hazard's injury. José was infuriated and Caneiro was suspended. The rest is history.

Boring, boring Manchester United.
On Tuesday night, The Volkswagen Arena in Germany saw the back of Manchester United as they exited the UEFA Champions League. United bowed out in a game consistent with their new found love for beautiful-nonsense style of football. Two quick fire goals from Naldo and Vierinha cancelled out Anthony Martial's opener. Wolfsburg scored an own goal to level scores again before Naldo scored his second of the game during the dying minutes. A good thing though that United lost because if they had scaled through, morale would have still been high with the team and fans alike living in denial.

Golden Eaglets, gift of peace and the man, Emmanuel Amunike.
Football has a way of making Nigerians forget the many problems facing them. Sports, especially football, has been an aspirin of some sort to ailing Nigerians. Coach Emmanuel Amunike led Nigeria's Under 17 team, the Golden Eaglets to victory in the recently concluded U-17 FIFA World Cup in Chile.

Enyimba FC; People's Elephant and champions.
"Nzogbu nzogbu enyimba enyi...." is not a lullaby. It is a 'war' chant you get to hear whenever Enyimba International Footbal Club is in the neighbourhood.

Chelsea leaky a**e and the football weekend.
Nobody outside the confines of the dressing room at Stamford Bridge can say what exactly is the problem; mutiny, low morale, Eva Caneiro or amadioha's anger. No one can presently say what is wrong with the self acclaimed Special One, José Mourinho.

The Oliseh and Enyeama saga: My opinion.
Nigerian football have been embroiled in fracas over the last seven days. Started with names of Super Eagles invitees and culminated in the Sunday Oliseh and Vincent Enyeama saga. From the moment I heard the story, I blamed the Manager, Sunday Oliseh. Having heard both sides of the story, I blame them both, but ascribe the larger share to Oliseh. There is a reason modern day football coaches are called Managers.
