No Chan target for Keshi

Expectations are high for the Nigerian team  

Christopher Green says Keshi has no targets to meet. "Keshi has done well in the time 
he has, not only to qualify the team for the tournament, but in adapting to constant 
movement of players,he is very determined to make an impact at the championship 
and our own is to support him all the way and not put pressureon him by giving him 
a target. Instead, I think the player should be trying to impress the coach enough to win
a place on the World Cup team so they can challenge those who are there.
