tbaba1234: How old is Dominic Solanke? Calculate. He was born on the 14th of September 1997. 20 this year How old is Victor Osimhen? Calculate. He was born on 29th December 1998. 19 this year Solanke is just a year older than Osimhen yet Solanke have achieved more than Osimhen. At 19 Osimhen is still struggling for games yet you believe Dominic Solanke who starting banging in goals in the Eredivise at the age of 17 (18 after a month) was far from impressive, ba? Smh Now, you are using age to exonerate Victor Osimhen, Why? Oh! Because Osimhen is an African while Dominic is British, ba Hmmmmm! Who takes you seriously? 1 Like |

TheGoodJoe: At 16 Dominic Solanke was already playing for Chelsea in UEFA Champions League. That was on the 21st of October 2014. At 19, he played for Liverpool. You wan put Wolfsburg for Chelsea and Liverpool levels? I think you are likely the one. 2 Likes |

forgiveness: That Chelsea role is what we call Catchment area. No disrespect on the young lad but you tried hyping Vitesse to Wolfsburg's level. They are not in the same category. The Chelsea was not a regular spot. Liverpool, not a regular spot. So quit the hype. Wish him well. Finito. |

In 2014 WC buildup, can you name one team that called more than 35 to 40 players to camp. Nobody does that. The trend is towards the end of the season a coach names a 35man squad. By the tine the season ends without even coming to camp sometimes, like 5-6 names are then eliminated based on whatever parameter the coach chooses to use. I think sometimes it's based on your season end form. Then the season ends and camping/cohesion session begins for like 2 to 3 weeks. Then the scary part comes where the 23 man list is announced and some placed on standby. I think FIFA wants you to announce your squad a week b4 the competition to allow for injuries and replacements. Also, some other teams directly name their 23 man squad straight up while players are still in their season's. Some name only 25. In recent times I have not seen any team call 100 players to camp. It's very local African nations that may still adopt your approach. But even at that they don't call a 60 - 100 man training camp. Just name any team that used your approach. I have checked Google and I thought either of Costa Rica, Honduras or Iran may have used your approach. They named very small squads. Maybe I didn't check well, but just help me with any team that has done it in recent competitions. Thanks TheGoodJoe: |

forgiveness:What exactly have Solanke achieved that Osimhen haven't achieved? They both won the top scorers and Mvp in youth team competitions they participated. Solanke is yet to record a senior team goal just like Osimhen. I mean, Solanke could be a good player but let's not hype him to a stratosphere he doesn't belong. 8 Likes |

goldfish80: What did Bertrand Traore who was 18 years old as at 2014 do in his first season in 2013/2014 Eredivise? 18 matches with 3 goals What did Dominic Solanke who was 17 years old as at 2015 do in his first season in the 2014/2015 Eredivise? 27 matches with 7 goals (despite injuries). I am not done.

forgiveness: You didn't even read the stats you were about to post, before posting to brag. Did you check minutes played? Solanke clocked 1800+ minutes while Traore clocked 606 mins. I mean, he played 3 times more than Traore and only contributed 5 goals more than him. Despite injures you say? Smh |

forgiveness:It is understandable for an African teenager to have limited opportunities. Eto's first few seasons in Spain points to the challenges an African teen faces in Europe. The question should be what you do when you get the opportunity. And so far I'm afraid, Traore have grabbed the opportunity given to him with both hands. I mean, we are taking about a potential African player of year nominee and you're digging up a perennial youth team player. Solanke doesn't gold a candle light to Traore. Sorry! 1 Like |
