Adomah hails ‘solid as a rock’ Omeruo


The two players represented their respective countries in Brazil this summer, Adomah playing for Ghana in their 2-1 Group G defeat to Germany and Omeruo playing all four games as Nigeria reached the second round.
Adomah has enjoyed a meteoric rise from park football to the world stage while central defender Omeruo – now on loan at Boro – progressed through the ranks at Standard Liege before joining Chelsea in 2012.

“Not just players who have played in a World Cup like myself and Kenneth, but to have players who have represented their country. It brings a bit of experience.
“It’s great to have Kenneth back at the club. He was solid as a rock against Leeds. Yes, we conceded, but he brings a lot to the team.
“Every season the squad gets stronger, it improves year on year, but you need a strong squad because it’s a long season.”

“It’s only two games in, we’ve lost one and won one,” said Adomah. “There are 44 games left. There’s no need to be disappointed, it’s a long haul. That’s football, we’re just trying to win games.”
