He is not overated bro. .

He did same in the French league 1 before moving to Napoli. . He was the best striker in both leagues. .

The guy is a complete striker. . I am not biased at all here.

No am NT saying he creates himself...and infact we seen to be on the same page here...what am saying is the team was built it let m say reformed to play to his strength and ofcourse that means leaving out some players that will NT work with the project ...like u also mentioned ... Players like Mertens and insigne seem NT to work well with the project....the only thing i am trying to hammer on is ..the kinda players they have playing behind osimen isn't a quality u won't find in any other team in Europe ...just that wen the combination clicks in football it looks like a wild wire...

Talking about city ...of course Guardiola isn't really know to form a team around a striker but he did that this season which i believe was effective to a point but later became less effective...his team has always been know to play triangular jogo bonito around the pitch and picking the right time to pick attackers movement ...but also what am saying is ..if it was osimen they got and NT Haaland...he would have scored in numbers too

You're right.
That is why playing for Pep particularly at the beginning of one's career is a huge risk.
Pep has gone through a lot of great players leaving many of them unfulfilled particularly forwards.
Though highly successful, the man just does not permit a hint of dependency on anyone and mistakes even the slightest are severely punished.

If you remember his first season in Naples.... the injuries, shenanigans, the drama.... if it was in Pep's team, by now he will be playing for Watford or Crystal Palace and scrapping with Zaha.... grin

Well said.... This is why he must avoid Chelsea and United at all cost!

That is why it is better for him to move to Spain rather than England.
Spain is more forgiving and their game is more technical, more rounded.
Osimen will do well there in any of the big two.... and still have a good second hand value.

Dear OP, who will you choose to play for your team, Benzema, Harland or our home boy, forget sentiment.

I will choose Osimhen over Haarlan currently and surely.

As for Benzima, is his better all round player than both of them but this debate is based on current form and Benzi is gradually retrogressing. . Due to age.

Even Lawandowski is the best all round striker in this generation but age is no longer on his side too. .

So currently, Osimhen is rated highly than any other striker in the world . . Pls Google ESPN and see pundits views there too. .

Absolutely. We don't have them.
And our technical department isn't bothered about that.
Whereas it is their responsibility to develop the technical play of the team whether building the team around a player or adapting the players to a specific technical qualities.

All we do in Nigeria is mash together Mercedes engine, Toyota gearbox, Chevrolet suspension and expect miracles.

The problem with Chelsea is stability.
They eat through too many coaches to bother about the careers of their players.
The present project looks promising but even the fans cannot say if the present management will be there by next week.... not a place for a young aspiring players from AFRICA to stake his career.

Quite true.

But Chelsea have the best crop of attacking talents in Europe right now so any striker that goes there now should thrive.

Which mettle? Same Victor has played against Chelsea, Liverpool and Liecester city and scored 3 goals in the champions leaugue and Europa league respectively. Premier league is overated.

Reference:


The SE presently does not have the kind of midfield that will support the quality of his play AT THE MOMENT. Even Napoli had to adjust the team and tactics over the past two seasons to suit his style of play. Osimen is not a ball, holder, just a pure striker so he needs ball holders behind and on the flanks.

There is not a single player in the present SE team that can hold the ball for more than 10 seconds or move it more that 30 yards at pace without losing it, even the more cultured players such as Iwobi, whereas Napoli has them in numbers.
