I thought his all-round game as well was good.

“We are working with Tammy, all the staff, to help little bits of his game where he can be even better. He is very receptive to that. I thought his performance was class. It is everything you want from him and he is unlucky not to have three, I suppose.”I would have loved it for him [to get called up by England], but he can take a bit of a breather.”We can work with him because it is a constant with all the younger players. I think England will come calling,” Lampard he added.Nigeria Football Federation president Amaju Pinnick desperately trying to get convinces Abraham to snub England and play for Super Eagles to replace the void left by Odion Ighalo.
