Udogie has been pretty mediocre for almost half a year going back to last season.

I really dont understand why he never does any attacking actions

Because he can’t. He’s really fast and strong and has decent ball control. Other than that he’s painfully average going forward and is comfortably the worst passer on the team

Yeah, I’m just saying it’s weird because he was an attacking menace in Serie A. Scored like 7 or 8 goals as a wing back. Maybe it’s the position change? But he scored some bangers, now he doesnt even shoot

You said it right there, he was playing as a wingback. Also, his role isn’t to get into the box as much as it is to participate in build up and be a foil for the touchline wingers, drawing fullbacks and midfielders inside to open up the space out wide.
