When it comes to my MPG, Im much more concerned about it without the trailer, Im more interested In the diffuser and making it functional.

The rear wheel swivels.
Of the current manufacturers of the swivel/single wheel trailers, none of them demonstrates the wobble or fluttering action while being towed at any speed that I'm aware of.
In what sense do you mean by two wheels? Like the nose wheel of an airplane where the wheels are side by side? Toy-tote has that type of setup.

...or do you mean similar to a standard trailer single axle setup? Cruiserlift has that type of setup on their DW-58. Again, the wheels swivel independently. The optional hitch fer this will allow the wheels to stay on the ground as it has a swivel joint to provide fer this capability.
Someone made their own...

I don't have any issues with sharp turns. One just has to remember to turn tight into the corner with this type of setup.
With my trailer setup, I actually git better gas mileage towing than without the trailer.
