Ogbu

For me is turning into a pretty classy player with good holdup play and passing. Just as a thought could anyone see him slotting into that 'creative' midfielder role with someone like Rose or Wright filling in that extra forward spot in the wider position?

No, at least not while we're playing 4-3-3. In that formation the 3 mids all have defensive duties, I don't see Moses fulfilling that role. Leave him in the front 3 where he can do most damage.

I wonder if he might do well playing in the 'hole' behind the front two? 4-3-1-2.

He's very good at receiving and keeping possession of the ball and his passing and link up play was good last night. Passed it on more quickly than he has done previously and it helped the flow of the game.

One thing I wish he'd do is have a few more shots when he's skinned a defender and is facing just the keeper, even if his is at a slightly narrow angle. In the first half last night he wasted a shooting chance with a weak attempt at a cross, did the same on Saturday and seems to find himself in the box quite often without actually getting a shot away. If he was better at crossing, I wouldn't mind, but he doesn't generally find one of our players with them!

I think we saw last Saturday that Ogbu is no defender.

I'm definitely a fan of his though. I think he'll have a great second half of the season, once he's settled and adjusted a bit more.
