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

China positive about US negotiation remark on North Korea

China said on Thursday it was positive that the United States is open to resolving tensions over North Korea through talks. Foreign Ministry spokesman Geng Shuang made the comment at a regular news briefing in Beijing. The Trump administration said on Wednesday it aimed to push North Korea into dismantling its nuclear and missile programs through tougher international sanctions and diplomatic pressure, and remained open to negotiations to bring that about. NAN reports that the U.S. stance, which appeared to signal a willingness to exhaust non-military avenues inspite of repeated warnings that “all options are on the table,” came in a statement following an unusual White House-hosted briefing for the entire U.S. Senate followed by a briefing to the House of Representatives. The statement from Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, Defence Secretary Jim Mattis and Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats described North Korea as “an urgent national security threat and top foreign policy

I’m different from young artistes – Majek Fashek

Since his return to the Nigerian music scene, veteran reggae maestro, Majek Fashek, has been on a conscious mission to once again stamp his feet on the music space, reclaiming his throne as the only musician in the world who can draw rain with his music fic. In a recent interview with HIPTV, the rain maker, as he is fondly called, claimed there is a cut clear difference between the quality of sound and music he makes and that of young artistes. According to Majek, “I make sound while all these young musicians make jam, I make good sound but they are always jamming, they don’t make good sound, they just jam. My song ‘Send down the rain’ was made over thirty years ago, but if you listen to it today, you will realize that the sound will appeal to both the old and equally the young ones because the sound is good and still relevant today, that is something the young musicians don’t have.” In a one-on-one chat with E-Daily , Majek explained that his statement in the inter
