In this episode, I dive into the stellar performances from Nigerian players this past week. Ola Aina found the back of the net for Nottingham Forest, who now sit 3rd in the Premier League after 10 games. Ademola Lookman was on fire for Atalanta, scoring twice to end Napoli's 10-game home winning streak and leading Serie A with 16 goals and 11 assists in 2024. Josh Maja continued his goal streak for West Brom, now ranking second in league goals with 8 after 13 matches. I also bring updates on Igoh Ogbu's return from injury, Kelechi Iheanacho's first goals for Sevilla, and an overview of the upcoming Champions League, Europa League, and Conference League matches featuring Nigerian players.

In this Nottingham Forest video, we delve into the latest transfer news involving the renowned football manager Jose Mourinho, currently at the helm of Fenerbahce, and his keen interest in Nottingham Forest midfielder Ibrahim Sangare. According to recent reports, Fenerbahce is preparing a bid of around £14 million to secure Sangare's services. But with Sangare only being at the club for one season after joining Forest for reported £35m the club would be taking a massive lose on their investment. Free agent and former Leicester City striker, Kelechi Iheanacho has again been linked with a move to the City Ground, with Forest desperate to strength their attacking line and after missing out of fellow free agent Che Adams, could Iheanacho be the player Nuno turns to, to add some more goals to the team. Forest have another pre season friendly tonight against Championship team Millwall, with the hot condition over in Spain effecting the quality of football last time out against Sunderland, the club has decided to move the kick off until later in the evening.

In this episode, Cam laments a 2 point loss at the hands of poor goalkeeping decisions and Pep Roulette. He can't lament too long though, as Noah and Cam are gearing up for an inter-podcast battle in which neither want to give away too many hints going into the weekend. Noah celebrates a master stroke picking up Kelechi Iheanacho, but will Rodgers start him again after his big performance? Tune in to this episode of the No Early GGs Podcast to find out!
This weekend's top performers were a good reminder for FPL managers who suffer from fantasy "blind spots"—players and clubs who never click with your strategy despite their big potential. Leicester City gave us two great examples in James Maddison and Kelechi Iheanacho, but some of us have worn season-long blinders with players like Ivan Toney, Riyad Mahrez, and even Miguel Almirón. What can we do to overcome our biases? Plus, we check in on GW23 news and scores and look ahead to key transfer targets and captaincy options for next weekend's GW24. Hail Cheaters!

Calvin Bassey's reputation continues to grow massively as he's been in excellent form for Ajax, initially starring & getting an assist in their 4-0 win league over Cambur over the weekend before making his UEFA Champions League debut on Tuesday against his former team Rangers. He went on to get another clean sheet & assist as Ajax ran out comfortable 4-0 winners on the night! He is easily the present & future of the national team's defence and he needs to be a certain starter at left centre-back going forward ideally alongside Kevin Akpoguma of Hoffenheim who has also started the new season well. In France, Terem Moffi continued his excellent start to the season by netting his 5th Ligue 1 goal in 6 games on Wednesday as Lorient beat Lyon 3-1 at home to move up to 5th position on the table. He is arguably the most in-form Nigerian striker in Europe right now and looks well on course to surpass the 14 league goals he scored for Lorient in the 20/21 league season In Spain, Umar Sadiq scored his 3rd La Liga goal in 4 games this season while making his debut for new club Real Sociedad in their 1-1 draw against Atletico Madrid over the weekend & he could be in for a monumental season if he can maintain his form.

In transfer news, Super Eagles captain made the move from Fatih Karagumruk to Sivasspor and made his debut off the bench on Thursday in their 1-1 UEFA Conference league draw against Peter Olayinka's Slavia Prague with Peter also scoring his team's sole goal of the game I finished the podcast with a run through of the Ones To Watch over the weekend Check out our Youtube Channel where you can also watch the episode: https://bit.ly/NigeriaFootballWeekly Twitter - https://twitter.com/NFWPod Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/nigeriafootballweekly/ Facebook page Link - https://www.facebook.com/NigeriaFootballWeekly Email - nigeriafootballweekly@gmail.com Anchor Link: https://anchor.fm/nigeriafootballweekly Podfollow: https://podfollow.com/nigeria-football-weekly --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nigeriafootballweekly/message

In the other semi-final, Cyriel Dessers was on the scoresheet for Feyenoord as they won the 1st leg 3-2 at home against Marseille and he's officially the competition's top scorer. In Turkey, Anthony Nwakaeme's Trabzonspor are officially champions for the first time in 38 years with the Nigerian forward playing a stellar role with 11 goals and 10 assists in 27 appearances this season and we'll be seeing them in the UEFA Champions league next season! In international news, the NFF have been fined by FIFA for the crowd trouble following the Super Eagles World Cup qualifier loss to Ghana and the Super Eagles will have to play our 1st AFCON 2023 qualifier at home against Sierra Leone without any fans. The Super Falcons have been drawn into Group C for the AWCON kicking off in July against South Africa, Botswana & Burundi and they'll need to finish as one of the top 4 teams to book a place in next year's women's World Cup taking place in Australia & New Zealand I rounded up with the Ones to Watch over this week which features a good number of our players in key European semi-finals. The Rangers trio of Joe Aribo, Leon Balogun & Calvin Bassey (who was named young player of the season for the club) will be in action on Thursday in the Europa League semi-final 2nd leg at home to RB Leipzig with both a trophy and a place in the Champions League at stake for the winner.

Akinkunmi Amoo & Ademola Lookman also received their 1st ever call-ups to the Super Eagles I also ran through how our Super Eagles players performed in the top European leagues over the past week including Moses Simon scoring the penalty in a 4-2 penalties win after a 2-2 draw against Monaco to take Nantes into the French Cup final ! In Turkey, Anthony Nwakaeme continued his excellent form for Trabzonspor by scoring his 10th league goal of the season to open the scoring in Trabzonspor's 1-1 draw against Fenerbahce as they maintained their grip on top spot. He now has 20 goal involvements for the season with 11 goals scored in all competitions & 9 assists. In the Premier League, Kelechi Iheanacho came off the bench to assist Harvey Barnes in Leicester's 1-0 win over Leeds over the weekend In France, Terem Moffi was also on the scoresheet for Lorient in their 4-1 loss at home against Lyon in Ligue 1 while Cyriel Dessers came off the bench to score the equaliser for Feyenoord in their 1-1 draw at home to Groningen in the Dutch Eredivisie I also rounded up with the Ones to Watch over the coming week Check out our Youtube Channel where you can also watch the episode: https://bit.ly/NigeriaFootballWeekly Twitter - https://twitter.com/NFWPod Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/nigeriafootballweekly/ Facebook page Link - https://www.facebook.com/NigeriaFootballWeekly Email - nigeriafootballweekly@gmail.com Anchor Link: https://anchor.fm/nigeriafootballweekly Podfollow: https://podfollow.com/nigeria-football-weekly --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nigeriafootballweekly/message
I ran through how our Super Eagles players performed in the top European leagues over the past week including Victor Osimhen scoring the opener in Napoli's 2-0 win over Ebuehi & Okereke's Venezia. It was his 1st start in Serie A since he fractured his cheekbone on November 21st against Inter Milan at the San Siro and the win moved Napoli within a point of Inter Milan in the title race with both teams set to face each other on Saturday in Naples. Kelechi Iheanacho was also on the scoresheet for Leicester as they crashed out of the FA Cup after losing 4-1 away to Nottingham Forest while in Belgium, fit-again Paul Onuachu got an assist in Genk's 2-0 win over Zulte Waregem The Nigeria Football Federation also announced earlier today that Augustin Eguavoen will remain in charge of the Super Eagles for our crucial World Cup qualification double header against Ghana with Super Eagles legend Emmanuel Amuneke also drafted in to become his primary Assistant Coach Finally, Senegal were crowned Champions of Africa on Sunday after beating Egypt 4-2 on penalties following a 0-0 draw with Sadio Mane scoring the winning penalty to bring Senegal their 1st ever continental title I also previewed the upcoming fixtures happening over the coming week and weekend Check out our Youtube Channel where you can also watch the episode: https://bit.ly/NigeriaFootballWeekly Twitter - https://twitter.com/NFWPod Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/nigeriafootballweekly/ Facebook page Link - https://www.facebook.com/NigeriaFootballWeekly Email - nigeriafootballweekly@gmail.com Anchor Link: https://anchor.fm/nigeriafootballweekly Podfollow: https://podfollow.com/nigeria-football-weekly --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nigeriafootballweekly/message
Kelechi Iheanacho scored a banger for the Super Eagles in our very impressive 1-0 win over Egypt on Tuesday in Garoua to send us top of Group D after the 1st round of matches. It's safe to say the team exceeded all expectations considering what we had seen under Gernot Rohr and it was probably the best performance from Nigeria in a good 2/3 years especially considering the opponent. Coupled with the goalless draw between Sudan & Guinea-Bissau, the result puts Nigeria firmly in the driving seat to top the group and a win on Saturday against Sudan will guarantee our qualification to the knockout stages and could see us clinch top spot in the group if Egypt & Guinea-Bissau draw or we'll need just a solitary point from our final group game to do so. I also previewed the Sudan game and touched on the results from the other groups after Match-day 1 Check out our Youtube Channel where you can also watch the episode: https://bit.ly/NigeriaFootballWeekly Twitter - https://twitter.com/NFWPod Host: @GoonerTwin Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/nigeriafootballweekly/ Facebook page Link - https://www.facebook.com/NigeriaFootballWeekly Email - nigeriafootballweekly@gmail.com Anchor Link: https://anchor.fm/nigeriafootballweekly Podfollow: https://podfollow.com/nigeria-football-weekly --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nigeriafootballweekly/message

On this week's Planet FPL Clash of the Correspondents James is joined by Leeds fan Andy Martin and Leicester fan Aaron Lagor to discuss all the latest at their clubs, the FPL assets within them and preview Sunday's Gameweek 11 meeting at Elland Road. Are Leeds tired? They've underwhelmed so far this season and have been impacted by the loss of key players and some of them are still missing. Are they in for an unexpected battle against the drop? Leicester have also underwhelmed and their defensive record gives cause for concern. Can they push on and compete again for the European spots or is something not quite right with Brendan Rodgers current tactics? Plus, Kalvin Phillips' importance, why Harvey Branes and Kelechi Iheanacho influences Leicester's shape, the fascinating tactical battle, why Marcelo Bielsa will have to pick a flexible starting line up and it's agreed that this is not the week to back against Raphinha or Jamie Vardy returning...

City delivered a wonderful display in Belgium on Tuesday, beating Club Brugge 5-1 - equalling our biggest winning margin in the Champions League proper. It was a near-perfect display. City, led by the genius of Phil Foden, were sharp, inventive and creative. Brugge struggled to get the ball off us and we are now in a very strong position to qualify from Group A. Both full-backs scored – has that happened for City before? – Mahrez got two and Cole Palmer's dream week continued when he became only the third teenager to score in the Champions League for City (the others being Foden and Kelechi Iheanacho). Palmer came off the bench for the first team in Saturday's win over Burnley in the Premier League, before hot footing it over to the Academy Stadium where he scored a hat-trick in our Premier League 2 game against Leicester – and now he has a goal in Europe's elite club competition. He is a star in the making and this is a week he will never forget. After the game, we heard from scorer of the opening goal Joao Cancelo, as well as the mastermind of it all Pep Guardiola – and joining us in the Matchday Live studio were Andy Morrison and Richard Dunne.

The Super Eagles kicked off their World Cup Qualification journey on Friday with a 2-0 win over Liberia at the Teslim Balogun Stadium in Lagos courtesy of a Kelechi Iheanacho brace & I go through all the key elements of the match. I then previewed our upcoming qualifier away to Cape Verde taking place this Tuesday September 7th where Nigeria will be playing without the core spine of our team including William Ekong, Leon Balogun, Wilfred Ndidi, Joe Aribo, Karo Etebo, Alex Iwobi & Kelechi Iheanacho who all play for teams based in the United Kingdom & have been barred for playing games in any ‘red list' country, which Cape Verde is at the moment due to quarantine concerns on their return so we'll be playing the game with a vastly different line up against a very formidable opponent If you have any questions or topics you would like discussed on the podcast, we'd love to hear from you using the hashtag #NigeriaFootballWeekly or #NFWSuperEagles via our social media channels below or send us an email.

Joe and Seb are joined by Ben Crabtree to look at the key issues facing Fantasy Premier League managers ahead of Gameweek 36. There are just three Gameweeks left of this tricky, pandemic-hit campaign so each transfer and captaincy decision needs to be carefully planned around those remaining fixtures. There is also the challenge of navigating Blank Gameweek 36, when Chelsea, Arsenal, Leicester and Manchester United players miss out due to FA Cup scheduling. Luckily, Joe and Seb are joined by former FPL winner Ben to look at the teams and players to spend those final, precious transfers on. Our trio break down the season run into the top assets by position, with West Ham, Leeds, Liverpool and Everton assets dominating their chat. Targeting relegated Sheffield United's porous defence and blunt attack is another key theme to emerge. For goalkeepers, there is plenty of advice for those like Joe, who have two non-playing shot stoppers going into Gameweek 36. Is it worth a transfer to replace the likes of Chelsea's Edouard Mendy (£5.2m)? Leeds midfielder Stuart Dallas' (£5.3m) out of position classification as a defender makes him a shrewd backline pick, meanwhile Manchester City's midfield maestros could be worth investment despite the threat of rotation. The Scoutcast crew's chat about attackers will be of particular interest to those who have invested in Leicester marksmen Kelechi Iheanacho (£6.3m) or Jamie Vardy (£10.3m). The Foxes have a dire end of season fixture run, meanwhile there is long queue of forwards ready to step in and help propel FPL managers up their mini-leagues. Joe, Seb and Ben catch up on their progress in Gameweek 35, with fixtures still to play. Ben takes his turn to pick a differential and captaincy and transfer plans ahead of this Friday's deadline are revealed. There is also a virtual award ceremony on the show, with Joe showing off the incredible trophy he has won as winner of children's charity Barnardo's FPL Challenge Cup this season. He also gives information about how to donate and support their work supporting and protecting young people. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━

We hear about how difficult is was for him as a player.Also, a look at the draw for the qualifiers for the 2022 Africa Women's Cup of Nations, and we focus on Djibouti champions AS Arta Solar 7, who have signed former West Ham striker Diafra Sakho.
In this episode, I run through how our star Super Eagles have fared for their club sides over in Europe & Nigeria over the past week!
