Victor Moses: I want to score 5 more goals

Victor Moses  believes  Eden Hazard  proved he is one of the best players in the world with two more goals as  Chelsea  thumped Brighton on Saturday. And the 27-year-old Nigerian star, who scored his first goal of the Premier League campaign, has set his eyes on  netting five more goals before the season winds to a close.
Speaking exclusively to  Standard Sport, Moses said: “He does that in training and, on his day, he’s probably one of the best players in the world.
“We all saw it today. He’s unbelievable. He’s so talented.  We’re very happy to have him here and we’re happy that he’s enjoying his football. Hopefully, he’ll keep scoring goals.”
With Pedro suspended for the trip  to the coast, Antonio Conte opted to start Willian on the right flank  and the move paid off as the Brazilian also got on the scoresheet.
The 29-year-old has seen his first-team opportunities limited this season either due to Conte’s preference to start Pedro on the flank or utilise a 3-5-2 formation instead of a 3-4-3 set-up.
But Moses insists Willian remains a key player for Chelsea, saying: “The second goal [for Chelsea] was a great goal, one touch from Michy, Hazard and what a goal from Willy. He’s a very important player for us and he done very well.”
Moses remains a vital player for Conte and recently admitted that he is trying to catch up with fellow wing-back Marcos Alonso in terms of goals scored this season.
And after netting his first of the campaign against Brighton, the Nigerian admitted the friendly battle between himself and Alonso is a sign of just how much they are enjoying their football at Chelsea.
“I got one today, five more to go!” he said. “We are enjoying our football. Marcos is doing very well by scoring goals, and I want to contribute too. I’m happy to score my first goal this season. but hopefully I’ll score more in the future.”
Much was made about Chelsea’s recent three-game goalless run, which was the first time in the club’s history that they had recorded three 0-0 results.
But Moses added: “Any one of us can score. We definitely will have chances [in games] but it’s just about converting them.
“We showed  that we have good enough players to score us goals. We are pleased that Willian, Eden and myself were on the score-sheet. The most important thing is that we are happy

Trump: Toyota Faces Big Tax if it Builds Corolla Cars for U.S. in Mexico

US President Elect Donald Trump On Thursday Turn His Attention To Toyota Motor, Threatening To Impose a Hefty Fee On Them If It's Corolla Car For US Market Is Build At Mexico Plant. "Toyota Motor said will build a new plant in Baja, Mexico, to build Corolla cars for U.S. NO WAY! Build plant in U.S. or pay big border tax," Trump said in a post on Twitter. This was Trump's latest broadside against automakers building cars in Mexico and first against a foreign automaker. The president-elect's attacks on investments by companies in Mexico have cast a shadow over cross-border production networks central to more than $583 billion a year in trade between the two countries. The value of the Mexican peso has skidded amid fears that Trump's policies would harm Latin America's second-biggest economy. Toyota, which announced its plan to build a new Mexican facility in April 2015, said the plant in Guanajuato city would not take away from U.S. employment. ...

New iPhone screen puts blue-colored spotlight on Japan supplier

The iPhone’s success has transformed the fortunes of dozens of suppliers, from glass manufacturers to the maker of robots that cut metal cases. Now, as Apple Inc. prepares to introduce a new smartphone with an OLED screen, a Japanese refiner better known for its chain of gas stations is about to join the list. Idemitsu Kosan Co. began experimenting with organic light-emitting diodes in the mid-1980s, seeking to reduce its reliance on petroleum after the global oil shock. Now, pick up Google’s latest Pixel smartphone or a Galaxy model from Samsung Electronics Co., and chances are the blue pixels on the OLED screens are built with Idemitsu’s materials or patents. Wider adoption of the advanced displays, which offer crisper images and use less battery power, is putting the spotlight on Japanese suppliers that up until now had virtually no stake in iPhone sales. Canon Tokki Corp., for example, has a near monopoly on the giant vacuum machines capable of making OLED screens. Dai Nippon Print...
