Then you don’t know your club

No be the same club wey sign top class striker like Werner ?

Is osimhen better than Werner ?

When it comes to striker issues at Chelsea Na to just Siddon Dey look

No be Tammy score 15 epl goals and the following season Dem purchase Werner grin

A club will only refuse to sign a player like lukaku when they only have a world class striker there

Now the point is if osimhen is playing at Chelsea they will still sign lukaku unless osimhen can guarantee 20 epl goals in his first season ,Chelsea no get patient with any player ,especially if them purchase you with big money .

Crystal palace and Villarreal are not on the same level

Same squad you used to beat crystal palace you could not use to beat Villarreal for 120 minutes

I taught you even know better ,Villarreal friendly match but crystal palace Na real game ,European super cup Na friendly match ?

Stop the lame excuse ,Villarreal is a far better team than crystal palace that’s why you struggled and only won with pk

Tuchel wasn’t serious with that final is the biggest lie ever told on this thread ,even guardiola didn’t make any excuse for loosing against Leicester
Same squad? You smoke weed? Pulisic, Aspi, Jorginho and Mount didn't start that match Mate. Like i said earlier, most of the guys barely trained or participated in pre season so Tuchel played with caution to avoid injuries. He said it himself. It's obvious to even an idiottt that is not the intensity Chelsea plays with. Chelsea had 71% possession in first half till Ziyech got injured and they just dropped. Too scared to make tackles etc. If a fit Chelsea catch Villarreal, na basket dem go use pack the goals. I beat Atletico, Real and Sevilla na Villareal go come give me headache. Clown �

Villarreal like basket ?

Ogbeni crystal place and Villarreal no be the same ,even a blind man knows ,you can only lie and deceive your self

You beat crystal palace because they are a weak team and Villarreal took you to pk

Because you beat atm real no mean say you must beat Villarreal ,common sense should tell you football is not judged like that ,how come you beat mancity last season and you failed to win westbrom and Aston Villa ?

Think before you talk next time grin

Wanna da talk tinz oooo
How osimhen take better pass Werner, how many career goals osimhen get, how many goals wer Werner get for e last season for bundesliga, OK u will say Werner did not perform last season, but how comes he keep benching Tammy Abraham (Chelsea highest goal scorer for 2 seasons) as a striker and he keeps benching pulisic as a winger.
Simply because a striker doesn't score does not mean you will turn a blind eye to other part of his game. He scored a total of 24 goals last season of which 12 wer offsides due to the fact that he has speed and Chelsea players no da gree release ball give am fast.
Most Chelsea goals last season were scored due to his runs that take opposition defenders from the actual goalscorers.
So make wanna no talk some kind tins, Osimhen is good but FOR NOW Werner is better than him.

He scored but not a brace. He scored and then picked up a knock which saw him subbed out in the first half.

It was his replacement who bagged the Winner.

TheSuperNerd:
Alhassan Yusuf's Midfield performance yesterday was again splendid. Saw his game and got my time's worth. One of three midfield displays I saw yesterday.

HE ALSO BAGGED AN ASSIST THAT WAS WRONGLY CREDITED TO AURELIO BUTA. Buta was in the box when the cross from the right came in from Yusuf which found Viktor Fischer for the opening goal of the game between Sporting Charleroi and Yusuf's Royal Antwerp. Game ended 1-1.

The commentators didn't help matters as they also mixed up Yusuf with Buta hence the misidentification.... and every stats site I have checked from whoscored to sofascore to Soccer24 to Goal live, etc made the same error. They all assumed it was Buta simply because he is Antwerp's right back and should normally be the one in that position from where the cross came from. They obviously don't know how mobile and ubiquitous Yusuf is.

So the bottomline, Yusuf bags his first direct goal involvement of the season.

See it here... ppogbae and also do us the honors with his drops for those who cannot assess twitter.

I am happy to report that Whoscored and Sofascore got my shout out to them on the error they made as regards Aurelio Buta being wrongly credited for the assist for Antwerp's goal.

They have rectified the error and the assist rightly given to Alhassan Yusuf. Whoscored even crowned him Man of the match after the correction.

So his visible attacking stats now read 1 assist in 2 league games. More to come from him.




Note: When I last checked earlier today, Goal, Transfermrkt and a couple more "not so popular" stats sites were yet to correct this error. Hopefully they follow suit.

Eizzy003:
Wanna da talk tinz oooo
How osimhen take better pass Werner, how many career goals osimhen get, how many goals wer Werner get for e last season for bundesliga, OK u will say Werner did not perform last season, but how comes he keep benching Tammy Abraham (Chelsea highest goal scorer for 2 seasons) as a striker and he keeps benching pulisic as a winger.
Simply because a striker doesn't score does not mean you will turn a blind eye to other part of his game. He scored a total of 24 goals last season of which 12 wer offsides due to the fact that he has speed and Chelsea players no da gree release ball give am fast.
Most Chelsea goals last season were scored due to his runs that take opposition defenders from the actual goalscorers.
So make wanna no talk some kind tins, Osimhen is good but FOR NOW Werner is better than him.
Werner is not better than Abraham. Abraham is a good striker, it just that he didn't fit in well with Tuchel philosophy. Some couch will prefer Abraham to Werner provided they have right players behind him. If you analyse Abraham and Werner well they bring almost the same value(not the same style oo) to the field of play. This is where Osimhen trump both of them cos he is an all round player.
