SHOLA COMPLAINS ABOUT BENCH ROLE
|
Shola is back in the first team frame after overcoming a facial injury, but is now only playing a bench role due to the fact that fit-againt Craig Bellamy is the favourite to partner skipper Alan Shearer.
"I think every time I have been given a chance, I have done myself justice," he moaned.
"That makes it that much harder to deal with it when you're left out.
"It has been a regular occurrence this season. You get disappointed when you get into the team, do well, but still get left out.
"It's not a nice feeling. I was really disappointed about it but there's nothing I can do about it.
"It was the manager's decision but I have to say that I'm very disappointed."
