The Streets Actually Forgot Obafemi Martins

Obafemi Martins - represented an almost completely different kind of striker for Inter to what they’d been used to having throughout their illustrious history.
Lightning quick off the line - so much so, that he’d have to think twice before leaving the ball behind - Martins was the archetypal ‘poacher’ to have in and around the opposition penalty area.
He may not have lived up to his earlier promise during his days in Italy, but it’s pretty certain that the mere mention of Obafemi Martins will always bring back glowing memories for those associated with Newcastle and Birmingham.

I never forgot this guy. For me, he is the legend of Newcastle.

Once Nesta said that Martins was the hardest to mark he ever met...just remember that he played against players like phenomenon r9

[@fuchica2]

Legend

[@overthinkingfootball.]

Yeah, and anyone could definitely understand why he was such a nightmare to opposition defenders

[@kickerse13]

No surprise there. He's was quick, strong and had Two good feet.

Top speed 99 in PES 6 is more than enough to summarize his ability

[@philthatcher6111]

He had stupid pace in pes 5 and 6. Always used to play Martins and Yakubu up front together
