Most players are selfish. They realize that being a defensive midfielder is a thankless job so they prefer playing in the more visible role of an attacking midfielder where they hope to score a goal and become the talk of the town.

Haven't you seen Obi Mikel, a born defensive midfielder, always playing as an attacking midfielder for the national team? Mikel, in particular, playing in an advanced role is always the height of comedy given that the chap can't win a 100m sprint against a tortoise.


I think you are being economic with the truth. Mikel has always been an attacking midfielder first, Mourinho just chooses to use him as a defensive mid.

I believe the case is the same for Wanyama.

Kenya vs Zambia this Sunday in a crucial qualifier. Oliech is back and promising fireworks. Lets see if he can partner with Olunga.

Wanyama will hopefully put aside the dissapointments of his transfer mess.

Zambia are a better side and have been preparing for this match longer than Harambee stars. This is the biggest test for coach Bobby Williamson. So far he has not impressed.

Really hope he plays Wanyama in his better suited holding position.


What position has Wanyama been playing for Harambee Stars recently? Its beeen a long time since I actually watched a full Harambee stars game.



He plays as an attacking midfielder.

I don't know if its just him feeling a need to help out or if its the coach who instructs - but he tends to play in a more advanced role.

For Zambia I would rather we go Mous style and play not to lose, I think that will be better with him protecting the defenders.

Obi Mikel is not a born defensive midfielder. He was an attacking player converted to a defensive player by Chelsea, as many african players are converted in Europe.
In the under 17 World Cup Obi Mikel was the 2nd best player beaten by Messi playing an attacking position.


Our very own Mike Okoth, the father to Divock Origi, started his soccer career as a goalkeeper but excelled as a striker.... Would you say he is a born striker or a born goalkeeper? For me, you are born X and not born Y depending on what you excel in, not what you were at 17years.

All I see is a setup. A setup for disappointment.

Then go for DCX2 in sportpesa to mitigate against heartache. That way, it will be a win-win scenario either way. That's what I have done.

Timbe, Olunga and Were looking good. Kenya 1-0 up courtesy of Olunga. Origi has pulled up a massive reflex save.

Ayub Timbe brings good memories of John Mo'

Olunga is a good player and has the physique but i think he needs to work on his pace and work rate.....he reminds me of Giroud.
