Former Super Eagles striker Victor Ikpeba says the current side lacks creative midfielders who can make the difference at the highest level.

Gernot Rohr has played Alex Iwobi in the number 10 position for the Super Eagles, and the midfielder was named the man of the match against Liberia last month... https://naijaodds.com/2021/10/05/eagles-lacks-creativity-in-midfield-iwobi-not-good-enough-says-ikpeba/

Agreed.

Iwobi is slow with the ball, he doesn't use enough strength with the ball when a player tries to dispossess him and lacks shot power.

have been hearing dis same talk of creativity ever since d great okocha left the scene, years after, his shoes is still to big to fill
we once had signs of hope from a certain rabiu ibrahim, dt left footed midfield dt had a small statue, he was good n did well went starting BT injuries n bad management made him fail
also,players like lukeman haruna n even joel obi once tried to bring in flair n creativity but the media hype of "new jay jay" got into their head n dey dropped by d road side.
dis iwobi tried but I never saw creativity in him, he is playing in national team n still in average EPL club bcoz of his agent n dt okocha factor..
they are so many guys in NPFL dt would av been better n gone farther than dis iwobi assuming dey had d same platform n opportunity .

I swear, if I must play him in my team, I rather use him as a supporting striker bcoz iwobi isnt a midfielder n too slow, lacks vision n cnt read games like a proper midfielder .
some supporting striker can play ad a midfielder like ozil n kdb but iwobi isnt bcoz he do allow games to control him n he lacks utility..
