It would be a 2-man midfield bruv coz Moffi will pair another in attack.
Also, that MF trio is Solid but not tactically fluid enuf.
Onyeka is a roaming Pressing CM with average ballplaying.
Iwobi is d creative hub.
Onyedika is Ndidi’s upgrade, given time.Weak spot: Onyeka.

Always getting injured. They have to replace him permanently. He is no longer consistent. There should be a better replacement.

Onyedika can grow into that role over time, he’s good.
Still backing Ndidi to get back to his consistent self though.

This guys can fake Injury just not to play because it’s a meaningless game. I don’t trust our players, none of them.

Shebi I told you earlier on that it is bcos we are not in the world cup and hence they’d be faking injury to play meaningless friendlies. If we are in the world cup now they’d all troops in to make a claim for their selection to Qatar. You think say them no get sense
