The world knows Harland is a goal machine and one of the best finisher the world of football has ever witnessed but you don’t have to take anything away from Osimhen, he always gives his all and plays his heart out with passion whenever he is on the field of play. If he is not scoring much, not because he is missing all chances that comes his way but simply because he doesn’t gets much chances to score.

No one enjoys being injured. Sadly, it's part of the beautiful game.

Also, he's not competing with Haaland. Victor is doing well for himself.

If you are not new to football, then you will know that this same Haaland career can end’s before he gets to 25 because of injury (God forbid), e.g Van Basten, Ben Alfa and even Bale and Hazard. So chill because this same Osimhen has proven that he can hold his own in any leagues also

Na so

Be praying for a World class career to end so that your favorite footballer can shine. The fact that you're thinking along these lines shows how wicked you are.

Instead of you deluded fans to demand more from your overhyped naija stars, you're stylishly praying for another properly rated player to be injured.

Tbh, I wanted osimhen over Nunez.

While I was skeptical about Nunez transfer, I had to support my club's decisions...whether good or bad

Now, our transfer team will remove that useless bias next time they shop for a player

I mean, on what world does a sensible football club pick Nunez over osimhen

Yes, I know Nunez hasn't started much games but you see in today's footballing world, people expect immediate production especially when a lot was spent on you

It won't be long before Nunez is labelled a bust.

And it'll be sad

Well, you are stuck with Nunez. And he is actually a decent player. He could come good with time.

Just that I know it is Mbappe, Haaland, Osimhen & Vlahovic that leads the new league of young strikers in world football today.

In the end, stuck you are, with him. grin Stand with your club... don't make them walk alone as regards their choice. For their choice is your choice too as a Proud Red Merseysider. grin

Have folks ever wondered why Osimhen always shine against EPL teams in Europe?

Osimhen's pace and power against English teams' High-line and midblock defences? Dem go suffer.

Better pray him and Mbappe don't land in England as things are just yet. Haaland alone is already too much trouble. Haaland is a goals machine. Takes the least touches, makes the movements and turns them into goals.

Haaland alone is turning the EPL into the farmers' league.

But those Two alongside Haaland will turn it into the "Marshlands" league. grin grin

On twitter, I said... there are 3 players who will burn up the EPL.

One is already in it. 2 are outside it for now.

If all 3 play in it... The English Media would be so overfed with headlines unending coz all 3 would rape the league just as one of the 3 is already doing.

Pray my EPL people, Pray. Better pray! grin
If Mbappe & Osimhen were to be in
EPL today, what team would you choose for them

Take nothing from Haaland but were he in another team in the EPL this season we would not be singing his praises

Since we are on the topic of money, help me ask your adopted son, Haaland why he won't head to Newcastle even though they are the only ones on the planet who can match his dream wage demands (strongly rumored to be very close to 500K euros per week) and can even go way above that and can settle Mino Raiola and Alfe Haaland (the real dad) with 20-30 million euros without any form of hard negotiations. grin


See ehn... Osimhen, Haaland, Mbappe... these 3 lads are the leading Strikers of the new generation of footballers. There's no way any of them will be found at Newcastle just because Bin Salman and his Public investment fund have come to town.

They can get the others... Vlahovic, Isak, En-Nesyri even... I don't even think Lautaro Martinez will head their way anytime soon... yet.

And finally... understand one final point.

OSIMHEN IS WIRED DIFFERENTLY. It's not just about Money for Osimhen. And ofcos I should know this for obvious reasons now known to everyone on this thread. That guy is madly ambitious. He wants to be one of the Greatest Greats and he is taking it one day/game at a time.


So biko... if anyone calls Newcastle here again ehn.... angry



Throwback to this post from October 2021.

I suggested Alexander Isak for Newcastle then and come summer of 2022, they signed him.

My message was clear. HANDS OFF Osimhen!!! He belongs to the same class as Mbappe and Haaland who will all play for Elite clubs. Two of them are already there. Osimhen is next to move.

Dread my influence on Transfer Dealings. grin grin

I believe Haaland would still thrive at Arsenal. They have good enough supporting cast to feed him and he has the movements to make them find him but it won't be like he enjoys aplenty at City. City has someone Arsenal don't.

But you see... Haaland is a lad of high taste. Him get "big eyes". grin

He probably said to himself.... "I am possibly the most clinical finisher in the game today backed also by my elite movements. Why don't I just team up with the team that has the Best Playmaker in the league in KDB?"

And viola!!! Here we go..... a partnership/union that shouldn't have been allowed to happen.

The Most Clinical finisher on the planet teaming up with the best Assists maker/Playmaker in the EPL. You just know Trouble was being brewed. Elite Trouble.

Haaland-KDB duo have the potential to surpass the Lampard-Drogba double act...AND QUICKLY TOO.

Take it from me... Provided KDB stays injury free, he will bag close to 25 Assists this season or maybe more. That 20 Assists record a season is GOING DOWN this 22/23 season.

KDB did 20 assists in 2019/20. Henry did 20 assists in 2002/03.

This season... KDB will go clear. And Haaland will keep feeding off it.

And yes ofcos, I expect Salah's 32-goals record to be gone sooner.






Finally, if Osimhen and Mbappe were to be in the EPL... I would pick Liverpool for Osimhen and Liverpool again for Mbappe. They would thrive under Klopp. Both are also top pressing machines off the ball. And the speed with which they will turn duels won and balls won in that final or middle third spaces into counters would be devastatingly beautiful to watch.

Osimhen and Mbappe will play together. Mbappe on his favored left side of attack. Then Osimhen through the middle. You will be in for double wahala in that 433 set-up. And they can switch places.

I would not pick Man Utd as things stand now. And Tottenham is a NO NO as they aren't exactly Elite even though I feel Osimhen will do well there too.

Osimhen will also do well at Arsenal.

Chelsea?? I think Osimhen can also thrive at Chelsea especially with Graham Potter there now. Mbappe at Chelsea can also work.

So that's it.


But remember... A new assists record in the EPL and a new Goals record will be birthed by Man City Football Club this season. No prizes for saying the obvious first. wink

Remember this name.

Gift Emmanuel Orban. Lad is on fire in the OBOS-Ligaen and will likely gain promotion with his club to the Norwegian Eliteserien and possibly bag a decent move. Only 20 yrs old. A goal scoring monger.

On 14 goals, 6 assists in 15 starts (18 games)

Made Team of the Weeks multiple times and even bagged POTM for July.

He scored a brace again today in Stabæk's 4-0 win. His 13th and 14th goals of the season.


TheSuperNerd:
New Player feature: Gift Emmanuel Orban, 20yrs, 2002-born

Young Nigerian lad who lived partly in Togo and then in Nigeria while growing up. Speaks English and French.

Plays for Stabæk Fotball in the Norwegian OBOS-Ligaen.

He's a Centre forward/Striker and this is his first pro season in Europe.

His 2022 League stats: 12 goals, 6 assists in 17 league games (14 starts) for Stabæk Fotball in Norwegian 1.Division AKA OBOS-Ligaen

His side sits second (one of the top 2 automatic promo slots) in Norway's 2nd tier with 5 rounds of games to go.

His agent is the renowned Emefie Atta Aneke who also manages Odion Ighalo, Chidera Ejuke, Victor Boniface, Ishaq Abdulrazak, Igoh Ogbu, Akor Adams, Samuel Adegbenro, etc and also manages foreign lads like Jens Petter Hauge of Norway


Keep an eye on this one. Time will tell.

Both will still be bottom 2 after this game but Leicester wanna ensure it is Forest at the rock bottom.

Poor Forest... All these especially after the summer transfer spending spree they had. Smh
