2018 WORLD CUP! Mikel Obi a bad number 10 for Super Eagles – Mourinho
Manchester United boss, Jose Mourinho, has disclosed that Super Eagles captain, John Mikel Obi is a bad number 10.
Mourinho stated this following Nigeria’s 2-0 loss to Croatia in their opening Group D 2018 World Cup clash on Saturday.
Mourinho who signed Mikel for Chelsea in 2006 and converted him from an attacking midfielder to a defensive midfield, said Nigeria has lost a good defensive midfielder in the person of Mikel.
Speaking as a World Cup pundit on the Russian TV station, RT, Mourinho said, referring to Mikel,
“Nigeria lost a good No.6 to get a bad No.10.”
The Eagles will face Iceland on Friday needing a win to keep hope alive.
