Nah, he didn't assist bro... He didn't score either, but he has a very good game.


Lol, bro, he did assist cheesy. Goals resulting from rebounds that initially hit the woodwork will be rewarded as assists to the players who hit the woodwork, meaning if you shoot the ball and it hits the post, as long as the next touch comes from your teammate, and it results in a goal, the assist will be credited to you.


Dessers got his 3rd assist that evening and it's already been credited to him. 😎

Ooh, sharp. The way transfermarkt gives their assists is amazing sha. They record assists for a player if:

1. He assists a teammate like we all know.
2. He wins a penalty.
3. Forces an own goal.
4. He hits the woodwork and the goal gets scored by a teammate (which I just know now, thanks to you).

No wonder they are recording 4 assists in 3 games for Victor Osimhen. It's cool tho...

Saudi pro league is a funny league
With all that money, empty stadiums when teams play
They should find a way to bring football fans from other countries in.
I watched highlights of Ighalo & Ekong play
Don’t players find it a bit boring when stadiums are empty grin
Same with NPFL, some teams need to do better with PR & marketing
Even though people are going through tough times
Better they drop their gate fees to 1k or 500 than having empty stadiums



Aside the top 4 or maybe 6 the rest are struggling with attendance..
Different factors
Weather and ticket prices

Adarabioyo was never an upgrade to balogun and ekong we never looked his way to be honest

We’re considering him now because ekong don’t have much years left and Bassey is great all aggression and no brain

Adarabioyo is not an upgrade

I’m glad we never got Tammy A or else we would have lost out of Lord osimenh

which Balogun u Dey talk about? The one that struggled to settle in top tier clubs both in Bundesliga and the EPL?

You will say he was the best we had then which I won’t argue but hyping his as a top notch CB? I disagree bro

Even young and mistake prone Bassey has more pedigree in European club football than Balogun

Balogun wey no fit start games for newly promoted Brighton that year for epl 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

It’s normal sha cus we tend to sometimes over hype our own

depends on where you get your data from. on sofascore that goal does not have an assist.

The confusing thing about assists is that it's really down to the organizers of the competition and the statisticians involved to interpret what an assist is, so different interpretations are bound to exist.


However, since the likes of Transfermarkt, LiveScore and Flashscore all decided to award him the assist, then who am I to argue cheesy ? . That's one of the most delicious ways to be credited an assist. You're right, it's pretty cool grin

You see? Even the Europa League Management acknowledged that he got the assist cheesy. They also gave him a 100% passing accuracy with 11 passes completed out of 11. That's huge for a Center Forward.

Adarabioyo is not just an upgrade but a high step 🪜 up from bang average defenders by we have.

Balogun and Ekong have NEVER been as good as Tosin A at any time in their careers

My Top 2 favorite defenders in the EPL since last season are Josko Gvardiol and William Saliba. They are two of the very best in the league.

Gvardiol is so so good. Two footed, can ball strike and a defensive and passing beast. What else do you want?

Calafiori joining Arsenal this season will expand this list of mine soonest.

VVD has been up there for a while as the best and he still got it. But I ain't mentioning a legend already. I am mentioning the EPL's new generation of top class defenders.
