Or Mikel Agu for that matter, I believe Etebo will be on the plane but not as an option for a DM, however as a CM or Forward. Rhor noted this himself when he said he brought on Mikel Agu for defensive cover as opposed to Etebo. I think the midfielders battling it out for the final spots are Etebo, Ogu and Agbo.

Ogu is in!
I think so too! Against teams like Croatia and Iceland, he would be a great person in the middle. Its more Uche Henry that I think will potentially miss out.

metalalloy was using the preview ratings - a simple mistake to make.

You guys are funny. Etebo has nothing to do with Ogu and Agbo.

Ahh sorry oh. Thanks for the correction.
We have been brainwashed by the Premier League that it's the best in the world. Nonsense. It's the best brand
Roy Keane: ITV 02/25/14

He says that we are currently "brainwashed" into believing that the Premier League is the best competition in the world, and that we are now a long way off dominating the Champions League again.
Gary Neville: Mirror: 12/23/14

I think Spain’s by far the best league.

His passing was really good according to this

https://www.whoscored.com/Matches/12222 ... Las-Palmas

Plus 57 touches

Think he may get to play a DM role depending on what formation Rohr wants the team to
Play.

Etebo is too adventurous and innovative to be placed as a dm. Wtf! You internet coaches keep suggesting wrong positions for our players. Yesterday, one suggested kelechi as a winger today Etebo as a DM

Not saying he is going to be a DM. Point is with a player like Etebo the coach has the option of playing him as a DM if he wants the team to be more offensive.

The whole point of having a deep squad is tactical rotation and game situation analysis. Etebo is a bench player who can be used to great tactical effect. For offensive play situations, Onazi can be subbed, while Mikel and Ndidi shield the back four and alternate attacking runs. Besides Mikel we haven't really got a central attacking m/f outlet. And as we know, Mikel engine has limited gas and has to be managed over a 7 game tournament..

It depends on the coach as well as circumstances at the time. What is not in doubt is that he's good enough to start in several positions.
