Left-footed Left Back

We need a left footed left back.

While Ebeuhi and Idowu performed admirably given the dearth of options we need to seek a left back.

As it stands there is only one left footed left back playing regularly at a decent club in Europe: Stanley Amuzie at Lugano (Switzerland). Not a top club, but he's 22 and a regular for his side, plus he has a more than decent cross to him.

Plus they just bought him on a permanent deal:

That’s yesterday’s question, originating from the same textbook as “is Darren Eadie the answer to the left wing woes?”. A more current question would be, why bother with a left back at all????

Stanley Amuzie - Lugano
Nnanbi Ofoborah - Bournemouth
Deji Ousman - Eintracht Frankfurt

Let us hope one of them comes through over the coming season. None of them is yet ready for the Super Eagles but a year is a long time in football!
