Northampton Town manager Aidy Boothroyd told BBC Radio Northampton:
"He (Akinfenwa) seems to be thriving at the minute. He was out of the team, he's come back into the team and he's proving his worth.
Akinfenwa fantastic -Boothroyd
"I think Adebayo is a fantastic player; he's better than League Two but I think that about a lot of our lads.
"I guess it's like my kids; I don't give them what they want, I always give them what they need. I always listen to them."
