"He is the right person," Mourinho said of the Sunderland boss. "He is more than ready. He is a good motivator and can create a good team spirit." Former England manager Sven-Goran Eriksson told BBC Sport: "Sam's been in English football for a long time. He's always been doing very well."

Allardyce's appointment is expected to be confirmed on Thursday. Mourinho, speaking on United's pre-season tour of China, added: "I wish him the best. I promise to try and supply him players and try to make sure the English players are always available in good condition."

Eriksson, who led England to the quarter-finals of three major tournaments between 2001 and 2006, warned success was "not that easy". "What is successful for England? Is it quarter-final or semi-final? Winning?" asked the 68-year-old Swede, who now manages Shanghai SIPG in the Chinese Super League.

Allardyce, 61, was interviewed for the England job by the Football Association (FA) when Eriksson left after the 2006 World Cup.

"If the FA want an Englishman, he is one of several good names," said Eriksson. "I wish him the best of luck. I know he is very organised. He knows all the players and he wants the job." Eriksson said that a result like England's Euro 2016 last-16 defeat by Iceland, which led to Roy Hodgson's resignation, "should not happen". "I know the fans and the FA are dreaming about reaching semi-finals and finals and winning a big tournament," he said, adding that England's World Cup triumph in 1966 was "a long time ago".

Top 10 Best Night Club in Nigeria

Nightclubs (or Disco as known in most European countries) is an entertainment event center and bar that usually operates late into the night. A nightclub is generally distinguished from regular bars, pubs or taverns by the inclusion of a stage for live music, one or more dance floor areas and a DJ booth, where a DJ plays recorded music and also the closing hours. The upmarket nature of nightclubs can be seen in the inclusion of VIP areas in some nightclubs, for celebrities and their guests. Nightclubs are much more likely to use bouncers to screen prospective clubgoers for entry. Some nightclub bouncers do not admit people with ripped jeans or other informal clothing or gang apparel as part of a dress code. The busiest nights for a nightclub are Friday and Saturday night. Most clubs or club nights cater to certain music genres, such as house music or hip hop. Below are the list of the luxurious and most expensive Night Clubs in Nigeria 10. Signatures – Akure The c...

Man Cries Out as He is Sentenced to Jail for fetching Rain Water

Gary Harrington of Eagle Point, has been sentenced to 30 days in jail and to pay a fine of $1,500, all because he had three reservoirs on his own property, that he used to collect and use rainwater. Harrington says he plans to appeal the conviction in the Jackson County Circuit Court. That conviction revolved around nine misdemeanor charges that come from a 1925 law. That archaic ordinance bans what state water managers called “illegal reservoirs.” “The government is bullying,” Harrington said in an CNS News, last Thursday. “They’ve just gotten to be big bullies and if you just lay over and die and give up, that just makes them bigger bullies. So, we as Americans, we need to stand on our constitutional rights, on our rights as citizens and hang tough. This is a good country, we’ll prevail,” he added. It all started back in 2002, when Harrington was attacked for having three “reservoirs” (ponds) on his large 170 acres of land. But the state claims that collecting water requi...

Devotion - FORGING FORWARD

“And the LORD said unto Moses, Wherefore criest thou unto me? Speak unto the children of Israel that they go forward” - Exodus 14:15 It is unfortunate that many youths do not see the need or have the zeal to move forward in life. Rather, they find a comfort zone at the bottom of the ladder of life. A story was told of a young man from a very rich home, who completed primary school but chose to waste away his life with vagabond lifestyle, despite his parents’ wish to sponsor him up to university level. All his mates, including those who were not as bright as he was, made it in their academic pursuits. He ended up an outcast, and by the time he came back to his senses and returned to persuade his parents to send him to school, alcohol had damaged his brain. It is not God’s desire that you remain static in your plans but that you make steady progress. God does not expect you to remain the same way over the years without moving forward. Striv...
