“We seem to have more of youths. We need a few more solid, older and experienced players like Victor Moses and Mikel Obi.

“It is for the coach to go out there and start looking (for foreign players) so that we have a nice balance. I am not saying go and get old foreign players, I am saying have a balance.

“ Players should be encouraged to harness their skills to rake in good results for the betterment of the country.”
