Romelu Lukaku on Victor Osimhen: Tags him the Best Striker.

Ahead of Napoli's Serie A clash with Inter Milan on January 4, Lukaku said this about our Monster Machine.

"Osimhen is really strong. Now he's the best striker. We have to be honest. He's strong and he's doing really well for Napoli. They are first in the standings. We have respect, but not fear".

TheSuperNerd:
2022 Flashback: Victor Osimhen Among Players with Most Shots in the 2022 Calendar year within the European Top 5 Leagues.

In Elite Sharpshooters' company. Partly explains his goals form as the more shots he takes, the more chances are there that he would hit the target.

The Monster Machine carries this form into 2023. Expecting more fireworks.

Meanwhile... Mbappe tops this Class.

You know some statistics are an exercise in irrelevant nonsense , they tell you nothing and indicate nothing.

Haaland has scored 21 goals and he is not on the list and Arnautovich who is next to V.O. in Seria A goals table is not on the list. Salah is on the list but has only scored 7 this season, meanwhile Mitrovic is not on the list and he has scored 12 in the EPL.

If anything it could be seen in the negative as poor marksmanship Salah 120 shots 7 goals.

Statistics are indicative and far from being conclusive depending on the variable.

Kog45:
Well said Oga Komekn, even I don't see Haaland scoring 20 goals in that Nottingham team.

Are you serious.

Haaland in this team at this stage of the season will have at least 15 goals, they would change thier formation with Johnson on the right and Dennis on the left . Feeding the ball to Haaland, crosses and through balls, with dominating hold up play by Haaland and you think he will not score goals

Was watching a Johnson break in the match and Awoniyi was struggling to keep up just too slow or if you like Johnson is too fast.

In this team I would rather play Dennis and Johnson as they would in my opinion complement each other.

You know some Opinions like yours below are just products of irrelevant babblings and the shameless urge to pour cold water on a player you always tagged "not good enough for the U23 teams of Championship sides". If Tammy was on this list, you won't drop this downplay track.

That Haaland is not on the list shows he didn't take as much shots in 2022. Such is his Clinicality that he has to take less yet still has lots of goals.

Mbappe is on this list. Has the most shots in 2022 and also finished 2022 as the Top Scorer in the Calendar Year.




Now... on a flip note.

Haaland has 21 goals. Great. But with his 21 goals, Man City are still 7 points behind Arsenal.

Osimhen with his 9 goals has Napoli 8 points ahead of everyone else in Italy.

Perspectives matter. So resist the urge to downplay shamelessly.

Koulibaly lost 4 ground duels out of 9. Awoniyi only lost 3 out of 9. Off day or not, Awo gave KK and the Chelsea backline a tough physical game. His pressings were not taken into statistical account even so what's this?

Or you are just taking your level of Clownery to newer heights in 2023??

Was hoping you'd drop his attitude with the just concluded year but I was wrong. Chelsea had an off day, why? Because their opponent didn't give them a chance.

I think you should create a separate thread for your English boys and leave us alone here.

Perspective is paramount.

The EPL is a far superior league to Seria A.

Mark Arnautovich who was not particularly outstanding in the EPL has 8 goals right next to VO and his team Bologna is 10 places below , so what does that prove, he has not had anywhere near the number of shots of VO. That's why he is not on the list.

Would you say Arnautovich is better than VO ❓ Statistically speaking by ratio of goals to shots, you definitely would not .

These stats are superficial nonsense they say NOTHING of real .

You make no rational sense just create nonsensical proposition without any substance.

Neymar, Lacazette, Moffi and Folarin have 10 goals or more but are not on the list , that's more goals than V.O. . Will you say that they are better strikers than V.O. I would not. Because they have had far less shots on goal ❓❓

I reiterate statistics are just indicators particularly taken in isolation of without other variables.

Please resist the urge to worship unnecessarily and over hype with misinformation and disinformation

I love Haaland although obviously not more than Papa Haaland (Elyte89) does. How can one love a child more than his dad?

BUUUUTTTTTTTT, saying he would score 15 in the PL in this Forest team at this stage of the season is a stretch.

Below is Forest's Control zones map so far this season in the EPL. They have the WORST control zone map as those red zones show areas of the pitch where they lose control to the opposition.

Is this the Forest team Haaland would bag 15 in after 18 matchdays? I don't think so.

My point is simple,how many chances created by Nottingham this season.This is a team that lack possessive football and you believe Haaland will score goals,am not disrespecting Haaland but used him as a study on how awful Nottingham team play.... Happy New Year bro.

When Man City brought in Haaland they changed their system and got rid of Raheem, Gabriel J. etc

Strategy and focus change.

Previously the goals in city where almost evenly distributed. But look now you have an overemphasis on Haaland, essentially all players have a one job find HAALAND.

In the same way Nottingham Forest will change thier focus , strategy and system.

Dennis and Johnson on the wings with the core focus to find HAALAND and you think at this stage he will not have at the very least 10 goals in my opinion more like 15.

Did you see how Brentford beat Manchester City a change in strategy and a bypassing of the midfield with use of blistering pace.

Like I already said, you won't be dropping these obviously illogical babblings if the Top Scorer in Serie A at this stage was TAMMY ABRAHAM.

Osimhen literally destroyed Liverpool in just 41mins in that 4-1 win. Remember?

ADL raises the wall: it will not sell Osimhen even for three-figure offers


This was written by today's edition of Repubblica, which talks about possible temptations from the Premier League for the Nigerian striker.



Every offer for Victor Osimhen will be returned to the sender by Aurelio De Laurentiis . This was written by today's edition of Repubblica, which talks about possible temptations from the Premier League for the Nigerian striker.


“For the moment De Laurentiis will not even consider any three-digit offers for Osimhen, which is the blue jewel most desired by the international top clubs. Already last summer he had come forward for the Nigerian Manchester United. “V09” has a mission to accomplish and has now put the conquest of the Scudetto at the top of his thoughts: shelving any goodbye plans in a short time ”.

I agree with you. Statistics of Shots played by a player (especially strikers) without statistics of how many were converted to goals or were on target is shallow. It only shows that the players are fond of shooting the ball.

But when we have other indicators like how many were on target, how many were off target, and how many converted to goals, then we can easily determine the strikers that are more effective with their shot.

The statistics is not bad anyway. At least, we get to know the players that attempt to shoot the ball more.
