Same question goes to my personal man...who's better btw haaland and osimhen

No dey confuse us with low level pass,high level clearance

If u don't answer me now..I promise u DT I will disturb u with d name rohr

Mujtahida:

It's like the analysis I watched on ESPN regarding Mendy and Ederson. It was agreed that Ederson is a better passer of the ball but as far as GOALKEEPING is concerned, Mendy trumps him and that is what matters because both of them are goalkeepers.

Ditto this talk about strikers. It is the person who scores more that is better than the other ooo even if the other striker defends or has other qualities than his striking peer because goalscoring is what is primarily expected of strikers.

TheGoodJoe:


That is one funny take.

Guardiola's game relies on one hundred percent possession and it is a team of 11 midfielders. Ederson has been a big part of the team that broke English record because his passing ability played a big part in keeping possession to succeed.

So because Mendy can save shots, he is the better keeper when his shot saving is almost irrelevant when your team can control the game with possession to prevent being shot at.

Oh I c..same way ederson records 0 goals conceded @ d end of d season ?

4. Their Defensive Actions Analytics. Osimhen is Boss. NO ARGUMENTS.

He totally out-bosses Haaland in every pressing stat.

Osimhen trumps Haaland in the Number of times one applies pressure to opposing players who are receiving, carrying or releasing the ball.

He tops Haaland in the 3 pitch divisions of pressing... in the Defensive third of the pitch, the middle third of the pitch and the attacking third of the pitch. He is a pressing monster who never stops. He is a headache that will never go away.

Note:
Def 3rd -- Number of times applying pressure to opposing player who is receiving, carrying or releasing the ball, in the defensive 1/3
Mid 3rd -- Number of times applying pressure to opposing player who is receiving, carrying or releasing the ball, in the middle 1/3
Att 3rd -- Number of times applying pressure to opposing player who is receiving, carrying or releasing the ball, in the attacking 1/3


But Haaland has one thing going for him, he doesn't apply pressures to the volume heights Osimhen does but his is kinda efficient, that is to say, he does it when he feels like and when he does, he does get possession most times. His pressure % is 30.9 while Osimhen's % is 28.4.

He doesn't Press as much as Victor but his less pressing numbers mean a higher Press % for him because his press gains possession for his side more than his attempted press doesn't.

But Osimhen presses more and wins as much possession within 5secs of the press for his side but he also has a high volume of attempted press that didn't get back possession within 5secs.

This is the reason I bring out the numbers because % alone can be quite deceptive. Lol

I hope the "haaland does not belong in same sentence as Osimhen" gang haven't began to feel somehow.

If it is about only the goals, then Onuachu should be far more rated than Osimhen but we all know and see why that is not so. So why is it so hard to see same here on the Haaland-Osimhen talks? Hahahahaha... Class still in session.

Anyway, this next point is about Shooting... Haaland's forte.

But there's another Nigerian who has made the TOTW 5 times. Ofcos he is no teen... he is 25y/o Forward, Samuel Adegbenro. Few here should be able to recall the lad keenly.

From Iheanacho and Mbappe now to Osimhen and Haaland.

In outsiders eyes, it’s obviously Mohammed Salah. But, Egyptians rank Aboutrika higher than Salah. It’s almost like how Epl and Nigerians rank Finidi vs osaze

Why is Semi Ajayi not getting Super Eagles call up again?

False.

Salah is so loved in Egypt that he came second in the 2018 presidential election without even contesting.

Tamunotonye22:



Boils down to his team being in championship, just maybe

FIFApresident1:
2021/2022 Season

Haaland
13 goals in 10 games
9 goals in 6 bundesliga games (league top scorer)

Osimhen
8 goals in 9 games
5 goals in 7 SerieA games (not in top 3 league top scorer)

Career stats below, are these two stats comparable? Talk more of saying the later is better than the former..

BARAJ92:
The best young striker as at today is Haaland, Forget all those all round plays you guys are bringing in to defend Haaland. Osimhen should continue working hard as he has all what it takes to be better than Haaland.

andrewbaba44:


Leave those people ,I don’t take them serious anymore

Despite our love for our players we should learn to say things as it is ,just because this is an eagles thread doesn’t mean we should not say things as it is

At least osimhen is doing well for him self and highly rated ,but that one no do ,Na to say he is currently better than Haaland with useless narrative as if the people they are telling that are dumb

Simple thing osimhen should continue working hard and he has the potential to be better than Haaland but they said no he is better than Haaland

If a Nigeria player is in the position of Haaland they will tell you he is better than lewandowski

Confused set of people
