Augustine Eguavoen Speaks on Samuel Chukwueze’s Dribbling
According to Eguavoen, dribbling in the wrong areas can put the team at risk, and he wants Chukwueze to be more cautious in his play.
“You can imagine Chukwueze coming to defence to help, he gets the ball, what does he do, not dribble,” Eguavoen told NFF TV.
“We know how good he is when he has to dribble but he should know where to dribble, he should know where not to dribble.
“If he comes in he has to do his defensive duty. It is a responsibility but he knows what to do, so these are things we go through every now and then.”
