“It’s very good for me, for the club, for all the staff. It’s amazing when you work every day in the training ground and you see everyone trying to give 100 per cent for their team.”

Hmm I watched about 50mins of the game and I can say that success was a shadow of his former self. He has lost pace, ability to over power players and hes finishing was very poor. About two good chances fell to him in the game including a one on one with the goalie and he couldn’t score.
Im happy that the coach is given him playing time to build back his fitness after a long injury layoff. But the guy needs to work on his game. I dont know if he has plans to play for the Super Eagles again, if he does he has to really work on himself. And get back his fitness and confidence.
