New Walsall signing has been a 'breath of fresh air'

Adomah got off the mark with Walsall’s fourth goal in their 4-0 crushing of Swindon Town as Josh Gordon, Matt and Taylor Allen also got on the score sheet.

The 36-year-old impressed from the bench as a makeshift striker once again and Matt feels the former Villa man has added “invaluable experience” to the dressing room.

He said: “It spoke for itself in his performance. We speak about Albert in there and we’ve got to hold him back at times. It’s like he’s the young lad and we have to get him to relax because he has got so much energy (he laughs).

“When he plays up top, it’s probably not a position he’s used to playing but his energy, he just wants to get up there, get on the ball and press.

“The way we play and the way we keep our shape when we win the ball back. It’s something that he’s probably getting used to playing up top but the energy he’s got is unbelievable and it’s great for him to get his goal as well.

“He’s a breath of fresh air. As you can see, the fans love him already and all the lads love him. It’s an invaluable piece of experience again in the dressing room.”
