Mike Obi says: We Will Beat Liberia Silly as Yobo is ruled Out due to Injury

Chelsea midfielder Mikel Obi has said Nigeria are fired up to reach next year’s AFCON and as such will thrash Liberia on Saturday at home. “The (team) spirit is high and with our form and determination we will beat Liberia silly,”

“I am not looking down on them, but it’s a game to determine our participation in the Nations Cup and we are ready to grab it with both hands. “I am here for the game and I am ready to do battle against Liberia. I am in good shape and form now, I will do my best to see that we beat Liberia. “It is a battle we have to win, we know what is at stake and we are not taking it easy with them.”

Meanwhile, The Super Eagles' captain confirmed that he suffered a knee injury during his club's Turkish league game against Besiktas over the weekend. Keshi said the player has a torn cruciate ligament and is under medical examination at his club to ascertain if he can travel to Nigeria to cheer his teammates.

We wish Naija the best on Saturday....
