TAYE TAIWO Comfortable In Ukraine
Published: December 22, 2012Dynamo Kiev wing back Taye Taiwo, who is on loan at the Ukrainian vice-champions from Italy powerhouse AC Milan, has commented on his adaption to the championship and the team.
Football.ua citing the official website of Dynamo quoted Taiwo as saying: '' My stay in Kiev and my performances for Dynamo give me great pleasure. This is a good club, the team has a few of my countrymen, and it helps me to feel comfortable in Ukraine.''
Taiwo added: ''I personally do not feel any problems. The decision to change the coach was taken by the president, and we have to respect it. Personally for me it was more important to adapt to the team, to try as much as possible to carry out the tasks given to me in every single match. Unfortunately, we lost a few games and because of that were very upset, but thanks to victories in the last match the morale of the team is up. ''
The ex Gabros star has played in three of the top leagues in Europe - England, Italy and France. He has picked the English Premier League as the toughest.
''The English Premier League is the best! Every match in this tournament is unpredictable, any team, regardless of where in the standings, can beat the leader. I would not say that the Ukrainian championship is weak. In Ukraine, a lot of small teams that have tried to take away points from Dynamo Kiev,'' says Taiwo.
The experienced Super Eagle was not named by Nigeria gaffer Stephen Keshi in his preliminary African Cup of Nations roster which was released on Friday.
