    Shola is a cracking bloke, intelligent, a good source of inspiration and leadership.

    He's not a great player, but if you find the right sort of role for him, he can be a very useful player.

    Awesome back up striker imo, vastly underrated.

    Poor striker overall but does have certain assets that make him useful.

    For example hes a great at holding up the ball, which of course is always a major help in certain games, especially when wanting to run down the clock.

    He can unsettle defences massively with his presence and power alone, and when used as a substitute seems very lively and willing to give it all, he's impressed loads off the bench this season, even managing a few assists. Not to mention his heroics against the mackems year in year out.

    I'm happy with him playing as an impact sub for next 1-2 seasons, just don't ever want him near the starting lineup if absolutely possible.

    Ability aside though, hes a true professional, and a role model to any young player.

    Shola 'The Mackem Slayer', he's worth keeping around for the two game's a season.

    He seems like a real stand up bloke. Highly professional and the rest. I'm glad it looks like he's found a place as an impact sub where he can be of some use. Not keen on him starting though, I don't think he has the stamina anymore.

    For me he's best at coming on as an impact sub. Had some good games last year but playing for 90 minutes he just seems to labour a bit.

    Been in the Mid West in the rainy season before, it does tend to come down rather heavy.
