Eagles defensive midfield

Post by olu »

A 3-5-2 formation with Obodo and Olofinjana playing as defensive midfielders would work well, but I feel uncomfortable playing 3 defenders against teams like senegal or cameroun with fast attackers. Olofinjana seems to be a much harder worker and tackler than Obodo though Obodo is a better dribbler or ball handler, so if we play 4-4-2 with one defensive midfielder I would pick Olofnjana ahead of Obodo.
With a 4-4-2 formation with Okocha in the middle, uche kalu on the right(Ikedia or Osaze as a replacement) and Olofinjana as a D.M, Okocha would not be overworked in the middle as has been the case in the past.
