This is a player Chelle should be chasing instead of half-cooked strikers across Europe!
f he was that good, clubs in the EPL would have snapped him.up.
I prefer the guy in Everton. Tim Iroegbulam will do a better job for Super Eagles.
I see the hand of osimeh in this one. Being a mildfilder sha I hope you enough game time and blend well with osihme so that you guys can come and replicate this.
Oya monkey! Over to you another tololo player in a tololo league.
A super eagles midfield with Ugochukwu, Nnadi, Chrisantus uche and Frank onyeka or Shotire will cause serious problems to the opposition
