Anichebe is getting better – Moyes

Former Manchester United Coach has showered praises on
in-form Nigerian striker who on Saturday increased his goals tally to
three in the Premier League this season.

David Moyes who now handles Sunderland said he was delighted with the performances of Victor Anichebe whose brace on Saturday helped the Black Cats away from the bottom spot on the EPL log.

Moyes
said: “He was immense today (Saturday), probably even better than he
was (against Bournemouth last time out). Victor has got this capability
of doing it. He needs to be loved and I think the supporters are helping
him because he wants that.

“The supporters here are enjoying him
and I hope they keep backing him. But he is a handful and on his day, if
we can keep him fit, he is a really powerful boy.”

Going forward,
Moyes has predicted that Anichebe will be a hit on Wearside after
seeing him blast the club off the foot of the Premier League table.
