IT’S sometimes all too easy to label Sammy Ameobi languid or lackadaisical, but the former Newcastle winger insists he’ll be no slouch when it comes to aiding the Bolton cause this season.
After all, with one superb flash of his left foot, the 25-year-old ended the Trotters’ miserable 13-hour goal drought and set Phil Parkinson’s side on their way to a long-awaited first win of the season over Sheffield Wednesday last weekend.
Ameobi readily admits his summer return to Bolton on a free transfer was the lifeline he needed after he was released by boyhood club Newcastle.
Having spent the first half of last term on loan with the Trotters in League One, he was recalled by the Magpies in January but made just four substitute appearances before the end of the season.
Confidence
Manager Parkinson has already left a big impression on the skilful wide man.
And Ameobi is determined to repay the faith shown in him as Bolton attempt to find their feet in the Championship once again.
“He was a massive part of rebuilding my confidence when I came from Newcastle on loan last year,” said the former England Under-21 international, who has since declared for Nigeria.
