I know what he is capable of doing and letting him free would be disastrous for us.''<br /><br />On the win, Keshi was happy winning against Kenya especially in Nairobi.<br /><br />''This is a tough place to win and it is not only a win that keeps us on top of the table but also gives us good morale as we head to the confederations Cup.<br /><br />''We have been playing the 4-3-3 formation and it won us the African Cup. <br /><br />''We have perfected that with time and it was our biggest asset today. <br /><br />''We wanted to sit back and study our opponents in the opening few minutes and we planned to hit in the final minutes when we increase the attacks,&rdquo; notes the tactician.
