Aji Alese was injured during our 2-0 loss to Blackburn a week ago. He explains how the injury occurred and how he’s getting on at Sunderland.
THE INJURY
“It was a 60-40 or a 50-50. He’s gone in with quite a lot of force and I’ve just taken that force on my ankle so it is just one of those ones where on another day, the ball ricochets and goes another way and I don’t catch the force on my ankle. That time, I did.”
WEARSIDE
“It’s different from back home. It was hard at first but I am settled now and I’m enjoying it. It’s a bit frustrating being out with injury but I have to work hard and get myself back better than I was before I got injured.”
GOOD GROUP
“It’s a very good group of guys. We have a mix now of foreign players, younger players and older players so we are all just coming together with the same goal of doing well for the team.”
