West Bromwich Albion’s manager, Tony Pulis has praised in form Nigerian striker, Brown Ideye.
Brown Ideye has been on an amazing form since Pulis took over the club in January.
The record transfer from Dynamo Kyiv had been blasted by critics and fans alike after underperforming in his first 6 months in the EPL.
In January the club was ready to sell him to Qatari club- Al-Gharafa but the move failed to materialize and since then the 26- year old has experienced a turnaround in his form and has scored four goals from his last three game
There are still rumours going around of a potential sale of the player and Pulis has decided to beat it out.
“He has certainly looked like a player we want in the last couple of weeks. It is just confidence. He has scored a couple of goals and the weight of pressure and expectation on his shoulders, with the fee and coming into a new country, a new football club, it has taken all that weight off him. We are delighted,” Pulis said.
When asked if there was still a chance Ideye could move on in the summer, the manager said: “I have not even thought about it. The only thing on my mind is going up to the Stadium of Light on Saturday and trying to get a result up there, which we know will be very difficult.”
Ideye had asked the fans to have patience with him during his early troubles but there had been high pressure to get rid of him.
