THERE IS NO DOUBT ABOUT THAT, IF THE COACH CAN CLOSE HIS EYES AND SELECT THE BEST BASE ON FORM/POTENTIAL WITHOUT FAVOURISM, NOT MINDING THE PAST PERFORMANCE.
I think Super Eagels need combative and ferocious and compacter defensive midfielders who can assit Wifred Ndidi in his task just like, Al hassan Ibrahim,Ugochukwu Azibuike,Nwankwo obiora and so on…
More reason I will prefer a pivot of him (ndidi) and Onyeka, this will give a free hand to the wingers and the playmaker to have a free will.
So the ones playing with Ndidi in the midfield aren’t good enough?Frank Onyeka better than Aribo?
@HASSAN Tia,what about adding this ones to the list Monday Agbontaen,Mutui Adepoju,Precious Monye?Hahaha funny yeye they smell!!
