Emakhu has scored one LOI goal, and from what I have seen of him, he was way off starting in the LOI for most teams. I dont think that is a serious opinionQuote:

Little evidence at u19 LOI level to suggest he was anything other than average, but promoted into first team opportunities to inflate his value. I have to hand it to Rovers, whoever is in charge of their strategy deserves great credit, they manage to create asset value every year in their academy talent.Quote:

Bray still declining media engagement, for all the growth we're seeing some clubs don't help themselves....

Also not necessarily a striker as he talks about midfield being he's proper position. So it's not crazy to see him get the move. He created his own value.Quote:

Good player. Certainly sounded like he decided to leave rather then us releasing him. Never really got enough game time with us and then when it looked like he would after scoring late winner against Derry he got injured. It was said at the time he left as he wanted to get playing again.Quote:

Well from Shamrock Rovers actually. He was on loan with us.
what did u think of him? decision making really hurts him at times (a bit too much tbh) but he is decent and can improve. good signing for waterford was impressed with a few bits of his game this seasonQuote:
