Barca won’t be bad

Flopbele need to leave Barca ,Barca needs a winger

I hope to see a Nigerian in Barca some day ,maybe it’s near ,don’t know

You sure say England go give us space for saka?

And please who is karim?
He might likely play for Salzburg this even. Watch and give your opinion.

I think the players to watch out for among Nigerian talents or those eligible to play for Nigeria are Chucks number one, followed by Saka and Karim. These players could turn out to be world class players. If Barca comes for Chucks, make em no miss am. This is because he has already adapt to La liga style of play. Going to EPl is suicide. Especially Chelsea.

what is the topic to be understood?

You claim that Osimhen's Ligue1 exploits are not enough for him to be above Awoniyi, but you have not pointed out when Awoniyi was actually clearly better.

Awoniyi is just an unlucky player.
Show or quote me where I wrote that. Like I said, get full understanding before jumping into the discussion.

Then you keep reading in your isolated ways again. I said injury, his playing out of position in the most of the few chances he got, not getting a proper run of games all contributed to him not getting the chance to make any real impact as a teenager. That is the fact. So stop twisting things in your usual style.

And you claim that he only suffered injury towards the end of the season. Oga, that is super false. Bcoz the he also battled injury around mid-season or so. That is the truth you keep running away from.
Osimhen was injury free from the beginning of 17/18 till almost the end of the season, even till 2 or 3 days to the end of February. Does that look like around Mid-season?

The fact remains that the injury cost him to miss only 5 matches out of 34 matches.

False. Osimhen was 18 at the beginning of 2017/2018 season and clocked 19 in the middle of the season in December 2017. By the end of 2017/2018, he was still 19 and very much far from 20.

And his injury palava didn't wait till season's end. The pics I dropped clearly showed that. He battled it from the 2016/2017 campaign before he recovered and fell back into it later on in the course of the 2017/2018 season.
4 months to clock 19 at the beginning of the season and when he clocked 19, what stopped him from playing despite the fact that he was free from injury, and when he played what stopped him from shinning?


You mean when he recovered in 4th of May 2017, he was still not fit, and was still battling with injury as at when the 17/18 campaign began in August?

Why didn't he shine before he fell back? pls, don't tell me injury.

That was 2016/2017 by the way. Injuries stayed glued to that boy all season until he started showing some recovery that got him on the bench a couple of times in the following season.

And in 2017/2018 being the following season... He wasn't given enough chances, played out of position in some of the few chances he got and also had fitness issues. He was 18 and beginning life in Europe. Why is that hard to understand?
Oga, when Osimhen was injury free in 2017/2018, he was fit for most part of the season. Can you tell me why he didn't shine?


Why was he not given chance?

But you claimed injury was the factor he didn't get to play. That is false.

is what Osimhen is doing in Ligue1, not enough to consider him better than Awoniyi?

Even in the age grade football both of them played, Osimhen is still better than Awoniyi. There Is no level of football so far, that Awoniyi can be compared to Osimhen.

Time still dey sha, he may still best Osimhen, maybe he will a better coach
It is better you have a better understanding of the topic before commenting on the discussion.

That was Victor's first season. This is Awoniyi's 5th. There is a huge difference.
IT doesn"t change the fact that he struggled in the Bundesliga.

TheSuperNerd:
It is clear that Osimhen was being integrated into European football as a mere 18year old. So you were expecting them to rush him in that quickly right? Is that what you were expecting? From a young African 18year old youngster still growing into his first pro contract?

Oga, that and coupled with later injuries and earlier injuries he had suffered and still coming out of, saw his chances limited big time.

In Awo's case, he is no 18 year old newbie to European Football. He has been around for a while and still struggling. Dude is fit and sound and I can just say that he is not being given the chances to play bcoz he doesn't seem to have the trust of the manager. Awo ought to leave that place and play under one who trusts him.
Osimhen was 19 going to 20 in 17/18 season and he was not injured untill the end of the season. True or false?

That was years ago and Taiwo has gone through alot of droughts already in his career so I don't know why you have to drag Victor into it.
The same way Osimhen went through droughts in the Bundesliga?

Do these below look like Big and suitable enough Chances to you? Does it show he had a fine run of games? And weren't injuries part of his problems? And wasn't he played out of position a couple of times?
What is not suitable about the chance? Injury? No way. As you can see from your snapshot, he was free from injury from the beginning of the season till almost the end. What stopped him from playing and shinning during those period he was available to play?

On Odey, you are only repeating what I already said. Odey haven't done what Awo have done in Belgium. That's what I said.



On Osimhen in Germany. We all know he battled Injuries in Germany. Not the same case with Awo in same Germany. Awo is fit and is not just being given chances to play. He hasn't been given a run of games to show his stuff.
That said... Osimhen just didn't have it good in Germany bcoz even the little chances he had, he was played out of position several times and not given a proper run of games. The injuries too didn't help.
Osimhen was injury free from the start till almost the end of 17/18 season and he was given little chances.

That's like asking why Henry wasn't scoring at Juventus and expecting that u have made a point.
The point remains that when Henry left Juve he shined and when Osimhen left Bundesliga, he started shinning. We should wait for Awoniyi to move away from the same Bundesliga Osimhen failed to shine before we can say he is overrated.

Osimhen was also doing it at senior football level in Belgium before Ligue 1.

Ofcos Awo was also good there.

Odey is just starting out. Was good in Switzerland but just starting out in Belgium and haven't done what Awo did in Belgium yet.


Please who brought this Osimhen/Awo talks. Is this necessary?
But Osimhen struggled in the Bundesliga, the same way Awoniyi is struggling. However, Odey is yet to replicate what Awoniyi did in the Belgiums league.

One of the reason ujah never lacked getting club in the bundesliga despite being bang average
