Shola is now teaching the kids of Sunderland how to play football! What do you think? http://www.thedailytackle.com/2012/06/shola-ameobi-launches-new-skills-school_12.html
He's not a great player, but a cracking bloke. I understand, in a way, why you'd have a bit of hate for you... he's the mackem slayer after all. But he's a fantastic bloke. He's very intelligent, very down to earth, loves his local area, he's a leader and an inspiration. He's not immense at PL level, but if you put him in a role that gets the best out of him he's a beast. He shows moments of quality in certain matches, and definitely has some skills. He could help a lot of younguns meet their dreams.
