Abeg dead this bayern talk. Tuchel no sabi use 9. Simple!! The track record is there. He no sabi use 9. Even when Tammy was fit he didn't utilize him the way Mou is doing right now. We don't want him in a team where the coach go dey double think his utility when he's one of the lethal 9s on the planet right now.


Pep has even adjusted. Tuchel is yet to.

I think Aubameyang beat out Lewandowski for the golden boot with Tuchel as coach.

what about when he coached Dortmund and psg? He didn't seem to have issues with number 9 so why harping on his Chelsea experience.
since Chelsea he hasn't done anything tangible with a 9. I know all about the previous 9 campaigns in former clubs. He's doing that at Bayern right now.

Who was the striker he under utilised at Chelsea? Tammy? Tammy is also classed as a striker? Which top/serious team or coach will use Tammy as their main striker? Even Mou is benching the boy most of the time at Roma. Wasn't this same Tuchel the same guy at Dortmund and PSG? Did he ever have a striker in the class of Osimhen when he coached Chelsea?

Everyone knows that Mou revived that guy's career and form with efficient utility. We witnessed it. He wasn't bad at Chelsea but he was dropped.

I had fears for Haaland going under Pep. But Pep has done well with Haaland. I however can't say same for Tuchel.


Havertz is doing absolutely nothing significant to be used up front but he keeps getting minutes. Is he tactically better? Is he good with position and passes. What's his aerial prowess? Yet....

Second error was now getting an already weak Aubameyang to Stamford again. You have the money and the means and can't still go for great 9s. Na Aubameyang (because he can drift from the wing. Imagine?)


He should prove he can do something with a 9 before Osimhen goes there abeg. Nobody should use the Lewandoski replacement talk cos Tuchel is not Flick or Nagelsmann wey sabi use 9.

Harvetz is better off as an attacking midfielder or support striker. He is not a goal scoring 9.
He should leave chelsea to a place where he will rediscover himself.
He is a square peg in a round hole ay chelsea.
It is like telling kevin de bruyne to be a striker and score 25 goals a season

I[b]f you were the general manager of Napoli and a certain black man told[/b] you to go and sit down that injuries happen on top your hundreds of million investment how would you feel ??

I’ll keep saying this if i were to own a club, my key African players won’t touchdown on anything aside afcon or World Cup.

You go just get your transfer papers ready

Just look how 1 week derailed years of hardwork[/quote] but if it was a certain white man saying it it will be fine? Injuries happen all the time in football and I’m sure the people at Napoli understand that

Before Tuchel, how many 9s have had a good career at Chelsea? Drogba and Diego Costa are the only ones I can remember....

Who’s treating him now is it us the Nigerians ??
In a European pitch this injury would have been avoided.

And they’ll know about the injury on time

Hell we heard about the injury when he returned to Italy. Why didn’t the people he represented found out about it earlier ?

On a European representative there’s so many levels put in place to help mitigate things like this
So Europeans that get injured during NT games [windows] are treated by their NT

Not yet ripe for Super Eagles! Under 23 at best!

That's my point. He allowed those guys go only to be utilizing havertz that have no attacker instincts. I'm glad he's not african or black cos by now ehn, the media for roast am. I guess his ucl goal is his subscription to the deflection

The money available for him to do the needful, did he use it to get better 9? How will you have such a money chest and can't get a 9. Is it about preference or just style or cos nobody wants to come. Yeah, the 9 jersey seem cursed, by 9s have done something there.

You think?

You needed to see it. A daring overhead strike with his back to goal + being heavily marked. He pulled it off and it came off the cross bar. Lad is born for goals. He sniffs it out at any opportunity and from any angle.

A good game from him before he was subbed out.

His shooting volume is insane no doubt but did you see the intelligent ball he lofted into the box for his teammate even when he knew he could still shoot with his left from that angle?

I think he's already working on that. But Orban is your natural sharpshooter striker.
