[SPORTS] l’m not intrested in Osaze’s comments – Osaze’s Coach says

West Bromwich Albion manager Steve Clarke has hit out at the behaviour of want-away Nigerian striker Osaze Odemwingie.

Odemwingie used Twitter during the international break to again criticise the club.

The Nigerian forward vented his anger at a lack of recent playing time, and threatened to buy himself out of the last year of his contract to leave the Hawthorns.

An angry Clarke responded by telling reporters: “I haven’t got anything to say to him. If he’s got something to say to me he should come and say it to my face.

“He has to come to me. He’s the one that has the grievance, not me. I am absolutely bored with the whole episode.

“I’m not interested in what he said. The club will deal with it.

“I don’t read Twitter. I understand there were some more comments and I told (technical director) Richard (Garlick) and the club to deal with it in the way they see fit. Richard has been off ill. He hasn’t been in.

“I’m just disappointed that I have to spend so much time talking about one player when I have such a fantastic squad of players who have made such a fantastic contribution this season.

“I am fed up of talking about one player.”

Clarke confirmed Odemwingie will be in the squad for Saturday’s trip to West Ham and has very few fitness concerns for the Upton Park clash.

“We’ve been lucky,” he said. “By and large everybody is back from the international break is in good shape.

“The only one who will struggle at the weekend is James Morrison. He didn’t go away on international duty and is very, very doubtful for the game.”

[SPORTS] NFF BEG FIFA, CAF ON WORLD CUP QUALIFYING MATCHES

The Nigeria Football Federation on Thursday wrote to world football-governing body, FIFA and the African body, CAF over tricky 2014 FIFA World Cup qualifying games and the FIFA Confederations Cup, all in the month of June.

FIFA had last week adjusted Nigeria’s matches, meaning the Super Eagles would play Kenya in Nairobi on Wednesday, June 5 and take on Namibia in Windhoek on Wednesday, June 12, before flying to the FIFA
Confederations Cup tournament in Brazil. Nigeria became Africa’s flagbearer at the tournament following triumph at the Africa Cup of Nations in South Africa last month.

“We have fully appraised our priorities and wish that either of the following options be seriously considered: 1) That the matches in our African qualifying Group F (Kenya Vs Nigeria; Malawi Vs Namibia and; Namibia Vs Nigeria; Malawi Vs Kenya) be played on the SAME DATES of Wednesday, 5th June and Wednesday, 12th June, 2013 respectively. 2)That all the matches be reverted to the ORIGINAL DATES of Saturday, 8th June and Saturday, 15th June, 2013 respectively,” the letter, signed by NFF General Secretary, Barrister Musa Amadu, read, inter alia.

It means the Super Eagles would either play Kenya’s Harambee Stars and Namibia’s Brave Warriors at the same time and day as Malawi would host Namibia and Kenya respectively, or the matches would take place at the World Cup qualifying weekends as originally scheduled.

“We make this request in the interest of fairness, as at the moment, Nigeria and Malawi have same number of points (5) and, for Nigeria to play TWO DAYS before Malawi in each of the two important qualifying games in June will give undue advantage to the Malawians,” the letter concluded.

Amadu added: “We see the FIFA Confederations Cup competition as a key tournament, but we also know we have to qualify for the 2014 FIFA World Cup finals, as priority. It is important to us to go to the FIFA Confederations Cup and then return to Brazil a year later for the FIFA World Cup finals.”
