Former Super Eagles captain, John Mikel Obi, has voiced his dissatisfaction with the performance of Manchester United following their recent 2-0 loss to Newcastle United, marking United’s fourth consecutive defeat. The Premier League match took place at Old Trafford, where Newcastle quickly asserted their dominance.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

The game saw an early goal by Alexander Isak, who scored just four minutes in, setting the stage for a tough evening for Manchester United. Joelinton added to their misery with another goal in the 19th minute, leaving United to struggle through the remainder of the match.

Mikel, speaking on the Obi One podcast, did not hold back his criticism: “Even if you’re not a United fan, watching them is painful. They were terrible. Newcastle could have been 3-0 up in the first 20 minutes. It was a disaster.”

While Mikel did not blame manager Ruben Amorim, whom he called a “fantastic and brilliant young manager,” he pointed out that the fault lay with the players, stating, “I’ve said it before – the players at United are just not good enough to be playing for Manchester United.”

On a brighter note, Nigerian winger Moses Simon has been named Nantes’ Player of the Month for December. Despite recovering from an injury, Simon impressed with one goal and one assist in just two appearances, earning 44% of the votes. Simon will officially receive his award before Nantes’ home match against AS Monaco on January 10.

This is not Simon’s first recognition this season, as he previously won the Player of the Month award in September. He has contributed four goals and five assists in 14 appearances for Nantes, proving to be an essential player for the team.
