While striker Victor Boniface continues to struggle to crack the XI at his Bundesliga loan club Werder Bremen<\/a>, the Nigerian’s social media posts are getting stranger and stranger. When Boniface literally wrote “Life is a shoe. You cannot drink a cow because the earth is a carrot. Think about it.<\/em>” on his instagram feed last month, Bundesliga reporters treated it as an aberration.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This has proven not to be the case. The 24-year-old is musing aloud about tomato smoothies, the nature of reality versus dreams, and writing things such as “Even if rain forgets umbrella, fish can’t drive bicycle because moon and bread don’t share the same Wifi.<\/em>” This is to say nothing of Boniface’s dating advice, imploring men to stick with “at most, three women. Four if you are going through a lot.<\/em>“<\/p>\n

For whatever it’s worth, most professionals associated with the club are attempting to keep their sense of humor about it. New Werder acquisition Yukinari Sugawara – a Japanese international from the land of the haiku – responded to Boniface’s post about “fish and bicycles<\/em>” by saying “I’m learning from you.<\/em>” SVW captain Marco Friedl laughed off the posts with a “whatever he says<\/em>” shrug.<\/p>\n

Werder chief personnel executive Clemens Fritz humorously referred to the posts as “abstract art<\/em>” on a local newscast. Bremen coach Horst Steffen – who has praised the forward’s quality<\/a> in addition to criticizing Boniface’s form<\/a> – still declared himself content with his player’s latest substitute appearance. Boniface logged nine minutes in the weekend win over St. Pauli and did come close to scoring his first Bremen goal.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Victor has been putting his work in,<\/em>” Steffen remarked at the post match press conference. “He was a few centimeters off [on a chance at 90+4]. I wasn’t dissatisfied with him.<\/em>“<\/p>\n

“He has a nose for goal, but must continue to work,<\/em>” SV licensing head Peter Niemeyer added in the mixed zone. “Every training session will help him continue to improve. It’s clear that he’s not yet where we want him to be yet<\/em>.”<\/p>\n
