Na wa o! Christantus Uche don join di long list of players wey dey miss action for Crystal Palace as dem drop am from dia UEFA Conference League squad. E be like say na serious gbege dey happen for am side.
Uche wey just dey follow Palace on loan from Getafe, don only collect small chance to shine for field, with only three starts this season. As e be, him don fit run 491 minutes for di whole season. E don try make impact, but e just no dey work for am.
Manager Oliver Glasner don talk say, di competition don hot as new attackers like Brennan Johnson and Jorgen Strand Larsen don land. As dem come, na so dem carry Uche waka go back corner. Lower e go, no be small matter!
Wetin make matter worse be say, Uche suppose don start 10 Premier League games to trigger im permanent deal, but as Naija luck go, e never even start one. Talk about getting stuck for traffic!
For di January transfer window, Crystal Palace do am well by bringing in fresh legs, but na Uche wey dey suffer from all dis changes. Him don chop bench well well, and even di few times wey dem bring am on, e no fit shine like dem expect.
Glasner don gree talk say e see Uche as No. 9, but di way things dey go now, e don fall down for pecking order as Strand Larsen wey dem sign for £43m go dey reign. E be like say e go go back to Getafe when di season finish, and e no go miss am there too!
We still dey hope say Uche fit turn di table before season end, but na only time go tell if e fit break through or na wetin dem sabi for Palace go continue.
