Edopesin: Ok. Glad that the actual person has identified his own model. Haaland is just an upgrade of CR7. He hits hard and fast, e no get time to dribble 50 people before he scores. It's fine sha. 1 Like |

TheSuperNerd: Not running down Osimhen in anyway. We already know the tactical attributes of Osimhen even from his U17 days. Same with his pace and technique. I am just pointing out that some of Haaland's attributes are unappreciated. Also even Werner has pulled off speed close to bolt. However, guys like him are appreciated as pacy players but Haaland does not get that rep regularly. Also his work rate sometimes go under the radar but that is a big part of why he finds himself in space to score. 1 Like |

Edopesin: To be fair, I feel Osimhen will pull off similar numbers to Haaland if he was at Dortmund, due to their style of play and creative players. However, I do not think he will do better. I rate Haaland higher but it is a preference. I have a soft spot for him. 1 Like |

I don't care what Daily mail said. The fact remains he is not even in Bundesliga Top 5 fastest which shows even EHIZIBUE at 35.85km/hr is faster than him. This makes the 36km/hr very very debatable. Thanks goodness for renowned stats game franchises like EA Sports and Konami. Osimhen's base card shows a pace of 85 and Haaland's based card show a pace of 82. Osimhen is faster and have shown this overtime. I won't take an overhyped report over proper stats collectors like Bundesliga Stats and EA Sports stats well renowned the world over. EA Sports stats are also used to determine the world's strongest and most physical footballers b'cos those stats are not made up. They are all well measured and documented. I repeat, Haaland's pace is overrated. He is fast but not as fast as hyped. TheGoodJoe: 1 Like 1 Share |

Thank you for this Safari. As if we no dey watch ball again. Imagine someone trying to limit Osimhen's touches in the final third only to "within the box". Osimhen is always on the move and uses the space outwide and in the center to get up and down the final third. Lad touches the ball and gets involved on the ball across the final third yet,like the article said, he doesn't even need to be so heavily involved to prove lethal. That's part of the unpredictability of Victor. safarigirl: 2 Likes 1 Share |

TheSuperNerd: Sky Sports Austria report that the Man United-linked goalscorer reached the speed of 36 km/h in the last fixture of the local league. Not too shabby for a 1,94 m striker. https://www.google.com/amp/s/tribuna.com/amp/manutd/en/news/2020-03-06-erling-haaland-comes-close-to-alltime-speed-records-who-says-tall-strikers-cant-run/ He pulled it off when he was at Salzburg. 1 Like |

Just need to point out that Osimhen bears no resemblance to Costa at all. Costa is all brawn and not much brains. But Osimhen is power, technique, Speed, and explosiveness combined into one. He is similar in several manners to Drogba. Not Costa. And Haaland is more similar to Zlatan. Not Lewandowski. Lewandowski could play SS and AM as a young forward. Haaland can not play AM. He strives more as target man kinda striker but he is more mobile than a traditional target man. TheLoneCitizen: 2 Likes |

Congratulations but it doesn't change anything. EA Sports also recorded his pace stat at RB Salzburg. His RB Salzburg base card for pace was 81. Now at Dortmund it is 82. Osimhen's base card at Lille for pace is 85. That says it all. Osimhen is clearly faster. EA Sports stats (World renowned) >>>>>>> Media talk. TheGoodJoe: 1 Like |

Bia Oga Goodjoe... Be fair and drop clip shots of Osimhen's speed showings too naa. You are talking Haaland/Osimhen in pace and you seem to be only analysing Haaland in clip shots. In short, drop the one showing his Sprint combined with the technique to bring down that long ball with his chest while on the run for his first Ligue 1 goal. Also the one where he ran from behind and outpaced two Valencia defenders near the centre circle area for his goal at the Mestalla. And nothing like think... EA Sports dropped "accurately" his pace level. And the pace levels show Osimhen is surely faster. As for Top speed, it is still debatable b'cos no one bothered to speed-check Osimhen's speed showcase in the UCL vs Valencia nor his speed adventures in Belgium. But EA Sports dropping 85 on Osimhen shows the lad could have even attained higher top speeds across several games compared to Haaland. TheGoodJoe: 2 Likes 1 Share |

All this media over-hype is one sided. No one even bothered to clock Osimhen's wicked speed showing vs Valencia. But thank God for EA Sports. Haaland's pace is 82. Osimhen's pace is 85. That shows unbiasedly and accurately their pace level. Haaland is a beast, yes...Osimhen is also a beast. Haaland is fast but Osimhen is simply faster. Chikena. Haaland is fast yet Alphonso Davies whose speed is not even yet in Bundesliga's top 5 fastest easily caught up with him from several meters behind and stole the ball like he wasn't even there. Please let's go easy on this hype. ![]() TheGoodJoe: 1 Like |
