Aroko is a complete footballer and deserves a certain freedom to express himself in SE shirt. I hope the coach understudy how best to utilize him on national duty.
Redemption as began, I don’t know why but I just believe in this guy.
Aroko, listen and listen well, haters are plenty in ajax and the only way to silent them is consistency.
The spirit of God and that of kanu and finidi will rest on you. You must survive in that club and prove to the world that you are a good striker
