PREMIUM TIMES caught up with the ex-Chelsea star who spoke on several issues; including his time in London with the Blues, playing in the Championship, and also his time with the Super Eagles.
PT: Is it correct to say this is one of your longest stays in the country since you became a professional football star?I think this is my longest stay in one city for one event. I always used to come Lagos or Abuja and spend most of my time in Lagos and it has been worth it, so I wouldn’t say I regret spending all this time here. To cap it all up, the amazing event that we have just concluded has been truly amazing. This is definitely one of the best times I have spent in Nigeria.
We had to win. I was in my room. We got to the game an hour before the game and I got the call two hours before the game . PT: At Chelsea and with the Super Eagles, you played under different managers. Can you tell us which of these coaches understood you the most and got the best out of you?I will start with Chelsea. I will say I played under many coaches, but I think De Mateo really understood me. He gave me the freedom to play and be who I am on the pitch. Carlo Ancelotti, as well, gave me the licence to do what I want. I will go with De Mateo. He brought out the best in me.
Stephen Keshi
Can someone educate me please. Who is a Nigerian? Culturally,who is a Nigerian?
