Pundits have started giving their opinions on new players in the German Bundesliga after three rounds of games into the season, which has so far seen Bayern Munich dominate as expected.

The Bavarians have scored 15 goals in just three games this season and have only conceded once. Their new signing Sadio Mane has been very instrumental in their blistering start to the season.

That isn’t the case at Hertha Berlin as their new signing Chidera Ejuke is yet to hit the ground running. He joined from Russian side CSKA Moscow where he suspended his contract owing to the war in that region as permitted by FIFA.

Ejuke has played in three competitive games for the German side and also had game time in two consecutive games in pre season before the start of the season but he is still looking for his first goal contribution.

Mathias Falk, who is a journalist and covers the German side told OwnGoalNigeria.com that he believe the 24 year old need to adapt his game to modern day demands which is centred around productivity by way of goals and assists.

” There is a player in him and that can’t be disputed. He however need to do more in terms of goals and assists. I have watched him four times and he is all about getting past his man, which isn’t bad but modern day football frowns at excessive dribbling”, he said.

” Going back to his stat at CSKA Moscow he had ten goals in two years in over 50 games and not up to five assists. That isn’t good enough for a player of his talent and my hope is for him to come good. He has what it takes but he has to grow up quick”.
