I hate to type this, but Bison Essien has lost a step. Hey dude went through 3 major knee injuries, so I will give him that. When he was on top of his game, he was Da Bison, the Strongest Dude in the middle of the park!!! Also, dude could control the rock & make pin-point passes. Example that one pass Bison hit to DD vs manure in the UCL @ old crapfort a couple of seasons back. That was a deadly ball & only DD could touch it & put the rock past VDS. Hell the goal of the year that season was from a Bison pass that opened up the Man Shitty Defense. Dude has talent, but not the speed required to be effective.
