JEJE!!! JEJE!!! JEJE!!! His work rate is tremendous....all of his hardwork can be seen on the field...by looking at the rate at which he is scoring goals for India...it looks promising that he might overtake Sunil Chhetri's goal record....let's hope for the best...he has a long career ahead of him....just hoping that he continues to put effort off the pitch in the gym and training sessions so that one day we all can call him a LEGEND
Last 2 years everyone has seen what Jeje has been doing for both club and Indian national team....scoring tons of goals and winning almost every trophy...he has a very strong physique which helps him in international level when representing India...let's hope that he beats sunil Chhetri's goal record
