Every time Iyanya pulls his shirt off on stage, the act is usually followed by loud screams from girls. You can’t deny he’s got the body though. But must he pull his shirt off every time; he’s making flat chest guys jealous.

The Friday night fight at Club Quilox between Oritsefemi and some bouncers of the nightclub is far from over. The club maintained radio silence on the matter despite the uproar it caused, but it has now been forced to issue a statement following a media release by Oritsefemi’s camp on Sunday. According to Quilox, ‘We were hesitant to release a press statement as several well meaning people have attempted to intercede on behalf of the artist but after his malicious and grossly false account of the event that occurred, it is only fair that we defend the integrity and ethos…
Former Liverpool and Republic of Ireland defender Phil Babb has recalled how he once “knocked out” a teenage Cristiano Ronaldo during their time together at Sporting Lisbon. Babb played for Sporting from 2000 to 2002, while Ronaldo was aged 15 to 17, and before the current Real Madrid man had made his first-team debut for the Portuguese side. In an interview with Sky Sports programme “The Fantasy Football Club,” Babb says he was embarrassed by his young teammate at training and so responded with a violent “forearm chop,” which he used to teach the “little kid” a lesson. “[Ronaldo] was…
Bayern Munich winger Arjen Robben has said he does not believe his latest injury is “anything serious” after being substituted at half-time in his first game for Netherlands in over a year. The Netherlands captain, 32, scored the opener in a 3-1 World Cup qualifying win in Luxembourg but was taken off at the break after suffering thigh muscle pain. “Hopefully it’s not bad. Maybe it happened after an awkward movement,” Robben told RTL Nitro. “I don’t think it’s anything serious or a lengthy injury.” Robben stayed in Munich last week for extra training and missed Netherlands’ friendly against Belgium…
Liverpool’s excellent 6-1 demolition of Watford last Sunday saw them claim top spot in the Premier League. That was an exciting day for the fans, yet Jurgen Klopp’s advice was to “stay cool,” which is easier said than done. First is a position generations of Liverpool supporters became accustomed to during the 1970s and 1980s. They’d love to get that feeling back, as would the younger fans who’ve only ever had fleeting glimpses downward at the rest of the league. Liverpool have scored the most goals and played the best football so far. That seems indisputable, yet Klopp always speaks…
Everton manager Ronald Koeman has said that Liverpool are ready to win the Premier League title. Koeman’s admiration for Liverpool may not be welcomed by some Everton supporters, but the Dutchman believes Jurgen Klopp’s side have proved themselves to be challengers for the biggest prize in English football after a strong start to the season that has left them top of the table after 11 games. “It’s still too early to say who will be the favourites, but I have been impressed by Liverpool so far,” Koeman said at the launch of the Kick It With Help anti-smoking campaign. “Maybe…
The rumors of a Wayne Rooney to Major League Soccer move got fired up again earlier this month with talk that the Manchester United man could be on his way to the Los Angeles Galaxy. The possibility of Rooney playing on these shores is an intriguing one. Here are five reasons why it could work. While it may seem like Rooney has been around for decades, he is still just 31 years old, a far cry from some other attack-minded players who have arrived to MLS as designated players, such as the 38-year-old Didier Drogba or the 36-year-old Steven Gerrard.…
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola had just been asked about Sergio Aguero’s latest hat trick, against West Brom, only to offer some constructive criticism about how, really, it wasn’t actually enough. “It is not about how many goals he scores, because we’re happy with the scoring,” Guardiola said, before talking about how the Argentine must improve his game outside the box. It was a remarkable statement about a forward as exceptional as Aguero, who almost every club in the world would want, but Guardiola’s whole argument touches on a growing trend in the game. It is possible that the City…
Bayern Munich CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has said the club are “very worried” about Arturo Vidal after the midfielder vowed to play for Chile next week “no matter what” despite picking up an injury. Vidal, 29, was stretchered off in the final minute of his country’s goalless draw in Columbia on Thursday with a thigh injury. But the midfielder, nicknamed “The Warrior,” said he would play through the pain after helping Chile pick up a “priceless point” in Baranquilla. “I will play against Uruguay,” Vidal told reporters after the final whistle. “I will play, no matter what. We need these three…
Arsenal’s Premier League campaign takes them up and down the country from Sunderland to Southampton this season but it is no exaggeration to say the viability of their title challenge could be decided 7,250 miles away in Santiago on Tuesday night. Chile take on Uruguay in a World Cup qualifier which has become arguably more important to Arsenal than the weekend’s upcoming meeting with Manchester United. It is in this game that Alexis Sanchez could take the field for his country just days after suffering a muscle tear in training — what would be “a suicidal decision” according to an…
Juventus general manager Beppe Marotta has defended the payment of a €27 million representation fee to Paul Pogba’s agent Mino Raiola as part of the midfielder’s transfer to Manchester United in the summer. Raiola earned the sum when Pogba, 23, returned to United from Juve for a world-record fee of €105m in August. Marotta says the fact that the France international’s move was the biggest transfer in football history means the agent’s slice was not extraordinary. “We’re talking about a deal over €100m and it’s absolutely normal that whoever contributed to the operation’s conclusion should receive a significant financial return,”…
Netherlands coach Danny Blind was not surprised by the impact of two-goal substitute Memphis Depay in his side’s 3-1 World Cup qualifying win in Luxembourg. Blind’s side struggled to dismantle Group A minnows Luxembourg at the Stade Josy Barthel and were being held 1-1 at half-time when Manchester United striker Depay replaced Wesley Sneijder and went on to score two match-clinching goals. Arjen Robben had opened the scoring in the 36th minute, but Netherlands were pegged back by Luxembourg just before the break when defender Maxine Chanot converted a penalty. “I told him before the game that he had earned…
Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge has hit out at critics of his work rate, insisting he has a responsibility to score and create goals. Sturridge has found himself marginalised at Liverpool, first due to a series of injuries and now with Roberto Firmino preferred in the striker’s role within Jurgen Klopp’s tactical plans. He has started just four Premier League games this season and has yet to score, with all his goals coming in the EFL Cup. But he has started all three games since Gareth Southgate’s arrival as interim England manager, scoring in last month’s wins over Malta and Friday’s…
Cristiano Ronaldo scored twice to lead Portugal to a 4-1 win at home over Latvia in UEFA World Cup qualifying Group B on Sunday. The Real Madrid star opened the scoring with a penalty in the 28th minute after Latvia’s Gints Freimanis brought down Nani in the box following a one-two with Ronaldo. Ronaldo should have doubled Portugal’s lead but hit the post with a second penalty before the hour mark, and Latvia equalised against the run of play soon after, Arturs Zjuzins lashing home after Jose Fonte had blocked Artjoms Rudnevs’ shot. But the visitors’ joy lasted less than…
Ander Herrera has defended Jose Mourinho’s tactics, saying that avoiding reckless attacks does not make the Manchester United boss a defensive manager. Mourinho has come under criticism in his career for conceding possession in favour of sitting back in defence, and before United’s most recent game — a 3-1 win at Swansea — Mourinho’s side had not scored more than one goal in a game in domestic competition since Sept. 24. But in an interview with The Guardian and The Daily Mail the United midfielder called that perception a “myth.” “There’s an idea of Mourinho that’s flawed,” Herrera said of…
Three Manchester United players are in Spain’s squad for their friendly against England at Wembley on Tuesday, a trio who’ve all performed well for their club so far this season. David de Gea, Juan Mata and Ander Herrera are all expected to feature at the national stadium of the country where they earn their living. De Gea was the only one of the three amigos to play in Spain’s 4-0 World Cup qualifying win over Macedonia on Saturday in Granada which keeps them top of group G ahead of Italy on goal difference. Mata has played 40 times for his…
