Title: Ex-Nigerian midfielder Oliha wants leaky defence reshuffled
Post by: Folami David on Jan 23, 2013, 05:51 PM
Ex-Nigerian midfielder, Thompson Oliha believes that the Super Eagles' defence needs to be reorganised for their next game against Zambia on Friday.
.
Oliha, 44 years old, said that Nigeria captain Joseph Yobo should not be played in the heart of the team's defence following his shaky performance in Monday's 1-1 draw with Burkina Faso in the Africa Cup of Nations.
.
The former Africa Sport man wants Nigeria head coach Stephen Keshi to go for a centre-back pairing without Yobo.
.
'' I think Keshi needs to play Yobo at right-back against Zambia because he's experienced and has played in that position before. He should look at another option for the central defence but not Yobo because he didn't look convincing in the first game '' said Oliha on Wednesday morning in Lagos.
