I'm a Malaga season ticket holder and saw alot of him last year.As said he is very quick and strong,i liked him as he is exciting to watch but he wasn't really rated by many Malaga fans,he bombs down the wing alot ,with his head down,and usually runs it out of play ;D I'd like see him given a go, why not... Him down one wing and Ethers down the other, feeding the ball in to Cole/Pav/Fuller or whoever may or may not be waiting get on the end... Our Tone would soon drill him into the need for accurate passing, i mean look at how he's done it with Rory, Higgy, Mama, Whelan etc..... Oh, right...

just read where he says "Stoke are a powerful team id fit right in, but i want to play week in and week out" made me chuckle really, little does he know that if he did sign a 22 yr old foreign player who has never played in England WILL be playing week in and week out, just doing it on loan at Barnsley or Stafford Rangers or some other high ranking team Pulis sees fit to loan him out to ,so they can get used to English football at a high level !!

How is it that people moan their bags off that we don't venture down any forgeign markets, then when something looks promising:

This story has been rehashed on several sites here but in the general news there isn't a single mention of this. Although, unless it is a big name player, it generally doesn't make news in Milan

That's not moaning imo. That's realising who the manager is, then realising that this lad is foreign and never played in the Prem and coming to the conclusion to forget it because of these 3 factors! ;D

1 in 3 at most clubs he's been to and for Nigeria looks promising IMO. If we use him as a target man this would be a great return! He is only young as well remember.

Of all the players (who are currently based abroad) who we have been linked to, Obinna best fits the profile of what TP looks for in a player. Pacy, powerful and with 34 Nigerian caps at age 22 - that's the sort of pedigree to give TP sweet dreams. He averages about one goal in three games and some of those games have been as sub and many have been as a winger. He HAS to be worth a look surely?

I'd sign him on his pace, you can build him up and for the price he'd be a worth while gamble with etherington opposite. He obviously had the eye of inter so he must be a talent... He probably could even be a potential CF after fuller moves on...

TP loves a striker on the wing, we need goals from midfield, we need pace on the right. he does fit the bill in that sense, wouldn't like us to pay too much for him though.

Newsnight last Friday carried an investigation into claims Nigeria's World Cup games 'may have been fixed,' so we have to bear that in mind when looking at his form in those games. Certainly the President's banning of the players for 2 years now makes much more sense!

£4 Million for him! We should snap there hands off (not that ive seen him much play ) obviously dependant on his wage demands. Seems to fit the "Pulis" mould perfectly, play both on the wing and up front. Replacment for Fuller when needs be. Big,strong fast. Sounds to me that he would suit us well.
