Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Rivers United midfielder, Joseph Onoja says the aim of the team is to improve their position on the Nigeria Premier Football League table.<\/p>\n

The Pride of Rivers have recorded two wins, three draws and two defeats in seven games this season.<\/p>\n

Onoja said the team is aware of its weaknesses and is working tirelessly to improve.<\/p>\n

He, however, expressed optimism in his team to secure maximum points in the matchday eight clash against Katsina United.<\/p>\n

\u201cLooking at the log we all know that this is not the position where Rivers United belong considering the fact that we are representing the nation in the CAF Confederation Cup,\u201d he told Rivers United media.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe know what we want, we know what we are lacking and we are working tirelessly to make sure we are up there.<\/p>\n

\u201cComing to Katsina, no other thing than the three points and we will see how it goes, we take it a game at a time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rivers United are currently ninth on the NPFL table.<\/p>\n
