CCC toys with packed midfield for SA, Kanu still to play!!!

Post by Oba »

Feelers I got indicate that he is toying with this line up:

Enyeama,
Abbey
Yobo
Okoronkwo
Ekueme
Lawal
Olofinjana
Okocha
Utaka
Kanu
Aghahowa

That to me seems like a 3-5-2, with Kanu and Aghahowa as the strikers.

Utaka on the right flank, Lawal on the left and Ekueme and Olofin holding defensive positions. Okocha is given his "normal" free role that was missing in the last match.

Will this work? But I see him making two substitutions in the match: Babayaro for Ekueme and Agali for Kanu.

If he plays a 3-5-2, I see Okoronkwo slipping to the side. He can also graft Ekueme to the LB (or that is what I was told he might do).

Well, none of those got kicked out. I actually think there is no option but to play this line up. It'll still be 4-4-2 though:
----------------------Enyeama------------------
Abbey-----Yobo-------------------Okoronkwo----------Lawal
Utaka -----Okocha-------------Olofinja------------Ekueme --
---------------------Kanu ---Aghahowa--------------------------

And before you start telling me Lawal is not a left back, remember this is Chukwu we are talking about here...
