Anichebe Would Have Made A Mark In South Africa - Femi Orenuga

Former Everton starlet Femi Orenuga is delighted with the progress of Nigeria international Victor Anichebe this season and wishes he was in the Nigeria squad campaigning for honors at the ongoing African Cup of Nations.

'' It was great to see him get on the score-sheet for the 3-3 draw with Aston Villa on Saturday. Victor is doing well and he's enjoying his football now that he's fit.

''Of course, he's now committed himself to Nigeria and was unlucky to miss the squad for the African Cup of Nations. I'm certain he would have made a mark in South Africa, though after the Ivory Coast result they seem to be doing very well indeed! '' Orenuga told Tribalfootball.com.

24 - year - old Anichebe has netted 5 goals in 14 matches for Everton who occupy the fifth position on the English Premier League table.
