Liverpool will still beat them though I'll want Guardiola to win this.
. Definitely. For guardiola i feel he may not win real Madrid. Not that he can't .He at times makes tactical mistake at this stage due to too much analysis (lol, my opinion though). Lets see how it goes but I want him to win this.

Its true, GK are the last line of hope that a team needs. A team may be abysmal for an hour of game plan, but their goalie will keep making saves that may inspire the players to give the goalie a scintillating victory worth remembering. Wallacott did that for Ghana but they couldn't even do the needful. Plus we now dash them ticket. Reminds me of Vanzekin and Ejide back then. That guy colet shot tire for Dream Team days ehn. Dunno why transition to national team eloped that teamz.

Lol. If Klopp personally like you, forget it. Person wey don already imagine you play in his setup and tactics already? Did anyone give Jota, Keita such chance, with or without Firmino situo? He scared Arsenal fans recently by saying he loves Saka. Fear klopp once he begin dey eye player o. grin

The season is about to conclude and analyzing victor Osimehn performances, I think he had a good season. This is a player that has scored 16 goals in 28 games despite missing over 2 months of appearance due to injury or COVID. Osimehn should stay for another season and aspire to play the entire season while avoiding injuries or suspensions.
Key positives of Osimehn performance
1) Hard worker
2) Pacy
3) Strong
4) never say die attitude
5) Consistent Presser
6) Heading ability. He has scored 4 headers this season

Key Refinements to work on
1) Positional Awareness
2) Missing Chances
3) Long range shooting
4) Social Network content

If this man can improve on his refinements and continue showcasing his positives, he would become an undisputed World class player. We must remember that, he is only 23 years old meaning that, he has enough time to upgrade himself

Are you playing ?

Go and check when klopp got Keita ,Keita is not even playing as he was supposed to be playing because of injuries and Thiago ,you are calling firmino as if he plays the same position with Keita

Oga firmino has been on the bench mostly self ,klopp have jota firmino and even Diaz and none of them is yet to be a 100 percent starter and you think Nunez will come and join them there ?

The only people worried about his social media are busy body Nigerians. A whole bunch of Karens running around crying about nothing. Victor Ikpeba himself has moved on from the situation but people want to carry the matter on their head.


As for missed chances he is not even close to having the most missed chances in his league. No striker on earth will ever score every chance he gets.

Why go long range when the plan is to work it in to u for a tap In? Victor is a very smart footballer and he knows the difference between a good and a bad shot.

You can't compare Klopp to Wenger in scouting. The only reason Klopp signed Diaz is because the player rejected Tottenham and waited for Liverpool's bid. Or else Diaz will be under Conte today.

What Klopp has, is turning average players into world beaters.

Oh men!!! 18, 17, 16 big chances missed per season wey never finish. I guess this goes to show that Napoli don't even create goal scoring chances for their attackers. With this stat, I just dey imagine Osihmen missing 18 big chances.

100% agree on everything except the social media.

When analysing the attributes of a striker, the last thing I usually check is finishing, because in my opinion, this is a mental attribute, not really ability.

Osimhen greatest weakness is movement.

I don't see anything wrong with his social media. His club would have sanctioned him if there was.

If movement means staying onside I can agree but anything else is false. He creates so many chances with his movements and there are a lot left of the table by his teammates for one reason or another. This was why the coach spoke about them giving him the ball. If his movements were poor he would have never said that.

Bro, osimehn social network antics is unacceptable and unprofessional. He must realize that, he isn’t that small boy from olusosun but a potential superstar/legend and must realize that, he is now a brand ambassador and Role model to the youth. The habit of responding to trolls has to desist or insulting Legends for doing their job is unacceptable. Long range shooting ability is very essential for strikers. Infact, it gives them an added advantage over their counterparts and in cases where your opponents has crowded the inbox, you can drift to the middle and Shoot. It is why I was very offended when people kept inferring that “Se Midfield was clueless vs Ghana” my friend, as a potential world class striker, you have to learn how to create chances by yourself or score Long ranger I.e ibrahimovich, Cristiano. Anyway, let’s also highlights his positives which are Speed, strength, pressing and heading ability

He doesn't have to do anything apart from get better on the football pitch. There is no rule that says u can't respond to trolls or diss legends. Professionals respond to trolls all the time so this is just a false statement. I can show u different professionals responding to trolls.

So because he didn't Shoot that day he can't Shoot at all? Victor doesn't need to be like anyone. Football is a team game and Victor is a team player. If he get the opportunity to strike from long range (which he didn't against Ghana) he will take it.

not really important winning the U20 but Bosso should give us future eagles stars with good performance.
