We are edging closer to the 2018 World Cup in Russia, and one of the most interesting groups of the tournament is Group D. Argentina will be expected to win this group, although they did make hard work of qualifying, but the second place is up for grabs, and Nigeria should be targeting this position. With Iceland and Croatia in opposition, things will be tough but the group is going to be close, and every point will count.
The Super Eagles showed their strength in the African qualifying section, and a 1-0 victory over Zambia booked their place in this summer’s tournament before any other African club had made it. With this, they carry the weight of a nation on their shoulders, they have a history of performing well at these events, and this summer they will be expected to do the same again.

Zinedine Zidane makes it clear that he is not putting any pressure on the hierarchy to make signings and people are just trying to misquote him with regard to whatever he has said in terms of transfers.
But, Zidane denies that he has gone to hierarchy with any sort of demand as far as the playing resources are concerned. He says he is pretty content with the resources which are there for him to utilise.
As per Zidane, whenever he makes a comment, people try to read between the lines and create a meaning of the comment as per their convenience.
So he wants to make a clarification and put it straight that he is not pushing for the addition of any particular player to the squad, but, then because the transfer window is still open and active, he can’t say that there isn’t going to be any addition at all. There might be. Continue reading Zinedine Zidane Clears on Signups for Club
Pep Guardiola. Everybody knows him as a sucker for perfection; some even dislike him for it, his players inclusive. And it never really mattered in the end.
Fast forward to four years after his Barca appointment and the Santpedor-born had done enough to warrant being tagged ‘the best coaching mind of the 21stcentury.’
His achievement at the Catalan side triggered a chase for his signature between ambitious clubs in Europe. He opted to however join Bayern Munich after taking a one year sabbatical at a time the Bavarians were just partying on their treble success of the Jupp Heynckes-led campaign.
That very achievement made the Spaniard’s metric of success tougher. His best however could only take the Bavarians to three consecutive UCL semi-final appearances and 3 domestic league titles. It felt like a failure, despite the amazing stats. Continue reading GUARDIOLA MUST DELIVER NEXT SEASON
