Akinbiyi failed to score in 15 Premier League appearances for Norwich City between 1993 and 1994. Fast forward a few good seasons in the lower leagues and Leicester City bought the striker for a ridiculous amount.

He was soon labelled 'Akin-panic-biy' by supporters as he became renowned for missing absolute sitters. Ade managed just 11 goals in 58 Premier League games.
