For African standards, we have one of the best midfielders in Africa but for top 10 standards, we’re average to below average at best in midfield

few African top teams can’t even boast of the quality we hv in midfield currently

Lookman with an assist

Samuel Kalu with a goal and an assist

Napoli doing very well without Osimhen.
Once again proving that the modern football are moving past the static no 9.

una dey like to talk this thing everytime VO get injury but when him return them change formation for am and things go back to normal.

Starboytwo:
Boniface need to score more goals and not only assist abeg.

We need goals bruh.

Its good. Let him be the new kanu nwankwo. The creative forward we alwas needed.
Abi....

Maduka Okoye benched while Isaac Success starts for Udinese against Milan

Osimhen is a very mobile forward. It took a coach like Spalletti to limit his movement all over the pitch.
None of the other Napoli's forwards can even loose Osimhen's shoe lace.

I wish Arsenal had a striker like Vic.

Arsenal seriously needs a striker of his caliber

if you have been watching napoli games you wouldn't make this statement.

We don't have shortage of midfielders I agree, but I disagree with the point about the coach fielding more attackers at the expense of midfielders being the cause of our problem.

Look, we have more attacking talent than defensive. The coach can field even all attackers and still beat his opponents silly while still controlling the game.

The problem is that the coach is clueless and the football administrators are even more clueless and morbidly corrupt. The deals these coaches sign have nothing to do with performance and everything to do with sleaze and kickbacks.

Which teams are we usually up against? Liberia, Sierra Leone, Benin. Come on! We should be beating those guys silly if we were half decent as a country. But again as I always mention, the problem is deeply rooted and can only be changed from the top.

charlesemeka85:

Our coach is just useless

A coach that is opportune to have the number of decent midfielders listed below shouldn’t be worried

Ndidi
Onyeka
Onyedika
Iwobi
Folorunsho
Yusuf
Ifeanyi Mathew
Fisayo

Peseiro’s biggest problem is reducing bodies in the midfield just to hv more attackers and my annoyance is that he has tried this since he took over the super eagles coaching responsibility but too daft to observe that it is not the best for the team.

Idris Elba love super eagles

This one still dey play ball? I thought he retired already

Marjoribanks:
I can't get over Ghana rep voting Osimhen for Ballor as the only African in a world cup year while ignoring Kudus and Partey. lol!
Also Ivory Coast voting Osimhen second and Nigerian rep voting him 4th! lol! Wow!

The voting pattern by the African reps for the Ballon clearly shows Osimhen would win the APOTY in December!

I’m really ashamed of some Nigerians ,,, You abandoned your Country man who’s doing so well and striving to put Our country’s name on Global map 🗺… I’m wondering how victor will feel now , just hoping he doesn’t affect his national team dedication…

Pls let’s start voting him for APOTY 🙏

In other worlds,Osimhen is a static 9,Halland also,Lewandoski and Kane probably?
And clubs won break bank to buy them?

Kane is pretty creative, but even Spurs are doing better without him.
And Kane is arguably the best striker on the planet.
A fluid interchanging Frontline has proven to be more beneficial in the modern game than having a classic no 9 who doesn't contribute in build up and doesn't press enough.
This is why dynamic strikers like Suarez or Benzema are gold.
It doesn't matter if that striker is world class, team always comes first.

The bolded is definitely not Osimhen... Maybe you're referring to Christian Benteke types of strikers ..
