Una go soon use overhyping kee that guy. Dude is an average striker at best! No exceptional touches or finishing. He's just there!

I have taken time to watch legendary strikers like ETO'O, DROGBA, YEKINI, etc. Only then have I realized that Osimhen is an average player who is playing in an era when there's serious lack of strikers.

Average striker score 10 goals in junior World Cup, best player in Italy and highest goal scorer in Italy. If that is what what average is then, I want to be average. Meanwhile, the guy is still learning how to play African soccer. I believe when he understands the game better, he will be scoring goals.

.....
Bros.... He helped Napoli, a terrible team to win seria A title.... And you called him average
Na wa o.... Werin man go do for this life wen una go appreciate am

I'm sure if it's was an English player that achieved that feat, alot of people will be considering him for Ballon dor already.... We do not appreciate our own and it's terrible.....
Alvarez for man city wen people dey call world class, is he better than oshimen
Jota wen every body dey rate for Liverpool.... He play ball pass oshimen??
Oshimen may not be in the class of okocha and them Yekini but he's on his way there....
If he can work a transfer to Madrid or city or even Liverpool.... He will be an instant hit.... The kid has potential and let's not take that away from him
Re: Greatest Nigerian Goal Scorers In Afcon by Angelfrost(m): 4:42pm On Jan 22
Yekini is still standing tall above the rest several years after his earthly departure...!

Nigerian football has clearly not evolved.

As it stands, Osimhen is not looking like he has what it takes to break this record.


Well... I wish them victory this evening. They should make effort to win and top the group. Second place won't make sense after beating Ivory Coast.

his the only one in top form in the last 3 years and has age on his side

judedwriter:
Why is oshimen the only one touted to break King yekini's record...

Can you see the current super eagles are majorly average players?
