Vital 1st Team Regular
A bloke near me at Macclesfield was into him from kick-off, that’s got nothing to do with his performance levels and everything to do with a pre-conceived idea of him.
No-one is saying don’t criticise but do it in the pub before or after the game, don’t do it in the ground where it’s pretty obvious our support can help the team win tight games.
I think the problem is people know he is the record signing and expect him to be like Messi, Ronaldo, Sterling etc. They forget that we are talking about a player at League 2 level. He is playing at League 2 level for a reason!
Personally I think Akinde has done pretty well. He took time to settle in but let's be honest moving up North with your family for the first time outside London and adapting to The Cowleys fitness requirements were always going to be hard. He is clearly starting to look fitter and I think he is starting to get better and better and in the second half of the season he will really start to shine!
