Stoke City striker Osaze Odemwingie has pleaded with the national team handlers not to play him in the Eagles problematic play-making role a close source in the team has revealed .
The former West Brom and Cardiff City forward is yet to rediscover his club form (six goals in 15 league appearances for Stoke) for the African champions and he has been largely lethargic since making his return to national team has suggested he will redeem his image by playing from the flanks.
“Osaze has politely asked the coaches to play him on the wings but it up to the coach to decide that as he still finds a suitable option for that role,” FCNaija's camp source said.
“Keshi is trying to ensure the team is totally united before their opening game because he believes that's the only tool to success.”
It would be recalled that the Big Boss on Monday settled the rift between Emmanuel Emenike and Mikel Obi after the Fenerbahce striker accused the Chelsea star of not been totally committed to the team's World Cup quest.
