Drop shots of Osimhen and compare. You overrate Haaland's speed very clearly. Davies gave us a fine idea of how fast Haaland is. grin And Davies is not even among the Top 5 Bundesliga fastest.

Also, EA Sports settles it and affirms Osimhen is faster than Haaland. Their stats for player attributes especially when it comes to physicality, speed and shooting are world renowned.

Not me. Dailymail. Either way, I think his tactical and technical attributes are high under appreciated.

Haaland is CR7, not Messi. Even Haaland says he models his style to CR7, not Messi.

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.

Haaland's top speed is 36km/hr yet he is not in the Top 5 bundesliga fastest of all time which has our own EHIZIBUE clocking in at 35.85 km/hr in third position abi. Na so.

Osimhen's speed vs Valencia was never even recorded but he was mentioned as clocking speed as if he were Usain bolt. His speed shows while in Belgium was never also taken into accounts but it is clear from reputable and trusted gamer stats franchises like EA Sports and Konami which are painstakingly accurate when it comes to player speed stats that Osimhen is faster than Haaland.

Osimhen's speed-shows overtime reveal he is the faster of the two. Haaland clocks 36km/hr yet Davies caught up with him so easily and Davies is also not in Bundesliga Top 5 fastest of all time. Sir Goodjoe... Fear God! grin


And I could also drop Statistical notes on Osimhen written by various sites but my point is clear. Osimhen commands the better all-round attributes. Both are excellent talents and I consider them to be at par. Haaland has his strengths but so does Osimhen and Pace is not an area Haaland edges over Osimhen.

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.

I have seen Haaland play and boy is fast. But Osimhen is something else.

Haaland is like Lewandoski. Osimhen is like Diego Costa.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

What is the point of this your argument?

You use 'We' when talking about the Super Eagles, but how many of their games have you gone for, even when it's in your backyard?

Is fandom by buying tickets and going to games? Someone is supporting a team from Nigeria, and you are asking if he has season tickets, does he live in England? How will he have season tickets?

The way you try to demean people sometimes, in your quest for whatever, is very disgusting.

He has as much right as anyone else to use WE for a team he supports. If Liverpool comes down to Nigeria and he has an opportunity to watch them, you think he won't? You think people in Nigeria that buy these club jerseys and spend their money to watch the games of these clubs do not have the right to use WE, when referring to clubs they support? Don't clubs make money from TV rights? Who do you think pays for these rights? Fans with season tickets?


What exactly are you getting at, by trying to ridicule his use of the term?

Agreed without reservation grin

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.

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. grin
