Bundesliga's Team of the Season Star, Victor Boniface now on 20G/A (12⚽️ and 8🅰️) in 21 league games.

28G/A (19goals, 9 assists) in 31 games across all competitions. A Top 23/24 season overall for Victor "the dancing assasin" Boniface.


He is like a modern day samson siasia. Very skilfully and creative forward

His Creative Quality in tandem with his finishing is one of the major reasons he can play alongside Osimhen and Lookman in attack in a 3-4-3 or 3-4-2-1 or 3-4-1-2 or even 4-3-3.

By the way have u noticed chukwueze has improved in his last 5 matches.
If he goes on like this he will be established in ac milan
One thing about him is that at his best his underlying stats are good. Things like short creating actions. Defence splitting passed attacking sequence contributions etc.
Also I think the competition at ac milan is bringing out the best in him. He either plays well or gets benched. That's the way to motivate him

I've come across it in three different posts now.
Whether Chelsea wants Osimhen or not...whether Jackson is better or not... Chelsea fans can do better than the nickname they're calling Osimhen.

Jackson does not even start for Senegal. Such disrespect!

Nevertheless, it is part of football. Jackson has being ridiculed too. Do not take it to heart!

Osimhen is going to PSG! He will play against Chelsea next season and show them who the master is!

And some that play God said that u don't teach an old dog a new trick. That Ndidi will never improve again. Na here we still dey for our eyes come dey see Ndidi dey bomb forward, give assists, score goals, come begin dey dribble join. Old dog finally learnt a new trick.

"You don't teach an old dog a new trick", were some of the retorts i got some of the times that i stood in defense of Wilfred Ndidi.

I doubt if anyone on this thread, have gotten those retorts the number of times they were said to me.

I kept saying Ndidi has it in him, I kept giving the reasons that he has been told severally to keep it simple, i also pointed out the possibilities of improving, because i take time to study a player before arriving at conclusions.

I like telling my observations no matter how they might sound.

I personally think PSG is the best place for Osimhen to go, if he goes to Chelsea then he will have to slug it out with Jackson (who despite all criticisms of his profligacy in front of goal is having a very decent season so far). And the attitude of Chelsea fans is that they will be overpaying for Osimhen when Jackson has more to his game except for elite finishing which he can improve upon.

Honestly as much as I love Osimhen, I wish he had the creative forward skills of Jackson or Boniface, I saw glimpses of that when he balled against Roma , Osimhen dropped deep and helped progress the ball forward and even created good chances for his other team mates. If Osimhen can do more of that he will be a complete player (he already has the pace, hold up play and physicality), all he needs to add to his game is passing.

No sir! It is a pity that Atlanta 96 was under age competition, nevertheless kanu is far ahead of Sia 1 in terms of sublime skills ND killer passes.

The only thing Sia1 has over kanu is physicality.

Besides Kanu was once APOTY an individual award that runs down to personal contribution both for club and national team.

Let's ignore the motive behind your post.

Pep is one of the coaches who was so obessed with this false 9 tactic. He was so invested in it that he benched Aguero (a prolific scorer) for Gabriel Jesus. Months back, he went ahead and signed Haaland. Arsenal and Arteta were towing this path until realisation dawned that there is still a place for the traditional 9 in modern day football. Fortunately, Havertz saved our blushes. Signing Nunez should tell you Liverpool might be moving away from the false 9 era. Osimhen is one of the hottest striker currently and he will be a perfect fit for them.

You have run out of ideas on what to say and have resorted to unwarranted attacks.

Have you seen any improvement in the SE in the games he had handled so far?

That is the answer to your question. Between finidi and amunike, settling for finidi would be like settling for beans rather than moimoi

I think you guys should know that am always based my point on national team I mean Super eagles.I never said Kanu is poor,in fact my favorite player which I visited in Circular hotel when he was younger playing for Nationale against Ranchers bees in Ilorin during FA cup but I rate Siasia highly cuz I watched him right from Moscow 85 and what Siasia did for Yekini in the late 80s to early 90s,oh my God,hope to see Boniface doing it for Osimhen
