SportsRe: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by peterd53(m): 10:21am On Aug 01, 2019
New offensive reinforcement for LOSC! The promising striker Sporting Charleroi, Victor Osimhen (20 years) has engaged with the club Lille for the next 5 seasons. The Nigerian international striker, who played in the last African Cup of Nations, signed a contract until 2024.



TWO CAN ONLY 17 YEARS
Born December 29, 1998 in Lagos (Nigeria), Victor Osimhen quickly appeared in the radar of the biggest European clubs thanks in particular to his performances of high level under the jersey of the young teams of Nigeria. First at the U-17 Africa Cup of Nations in 2015, but especially at the U-17 World Cup, a few months later, where he became the top scorer (10 goals in 7 games) of a competition that he wins with the young Super Eagles. A precocity that even allows him to be outclassed for the U23 CAN he also raises in the wake, then to be elected the best young African player of the year 2018 by the Confederation of African Football.


FIRST STEPS IN GERMANY, EXPLOSION IN BELGIUM
Such a business card logically opens the doors of the Old Continent. For Victor, it will be first the Bundesliga and VfL Wolfsbourg where the player puts his bags in 2017, just 18 years. Its first steps in Europe are encouraging, but in Lower Saxony, competition is fierce at the forefront (Dost, Gomez, Origi ...). To progress, he is then loaned to Sporting Charleroi at the dawn of the 2018-2019 season. It is there, in the Belgian first division, that the talent of Victor Osimhen is truly revealed. Undisputed holder, the number 45 shines and scores a total of 20 goals in all competitions in one season in the Zebras. Exceptional performances that prompt the Belgian club to lift its option to buy this summer.


BRONZE MEDAL AT CAN 2019
Strong and combative attacker, able to put physical impact and to create spaces, the athletic Nigerian scorer (1m85, 78kg) also has a real quality in the aerial game, while showing a good ball agility at the foot and an interesting overflow capacity. Suffice to say that such a complete profile could not miss an international career and wear the shirt of his country. This has been the case since 2017, the date of his first selection at the Super Eagles, with which he has just climbed on the third step of the podium at the 2019 African Cup of Nations. With the recruitment of Victor Osimhen, the LOSC offers itself a new offensive profile with high potential. The Nigerian striker, who arrives in the North after a more than successful season in Belgium, joins the list of international Lille players, already enjoying significant experience despite their young age. Wish Victor Osimhen welcome to Lille.

I mean lenglet the top France CB you mentioned who is on 1 cap.
I know you don't know anything about the laporte situation. you don't even know about the war of words between him and France coach then.
let us look at it this way. if Zouma who is on 5caps is no French top CB why then did you mentioned laporte name when I asked of the top France international CB? ask yourself, why is the likes of Rami, Mamadou Sakho and Kurt Zouma ahead of laporte a regular CB for a top club like mancity
Rami and sakho made France NT when the team was in decline. Tell me why Sakho hasn’t been consider for selection since 2014? He’s not just good enough to displace d CB available for selection now. Please just show me a screenshot of the war of words btw deschamp and Laporte otherwise u know nothing

Zouma 5 mangala 8 lenglet (your top CB) 1.
Lucas does not prefer any CB position. he has always played LB or CB for athletico madrid depending on what the coach want in a certain match.
pavard also played RB and CB (mostly CB for his club) did sedibe also get injured that made pavard the first choice RB? I know you did not even realize Lucas was the regular LB for France at the WC. you are only arguing the cb/RB to save face
Mendy has always been second choice in the French LB position (only 9caps). he was first behind kurzuwa and now Lucas.

as for Laporte, he is no French international(0cap).
if you want to know by why he is no French international footballer, ask Google.
See dz guy ooo. Na u label zouma Nd mangala as ur top cb not me. U just deh find something to talk. I guess you know more dan google on Laporte matter right? Like I said earlier, u know nothing about d French NT

Mk12:
Lucas has always played LB or CB at athletico madrid. he played leftback because he also played leftback for his club. Mendy was never a regular in the French national team so his fitness issue did not change anything. he was on the bench all through and the total match he played for France is not up to 10.
about laporte situation, you can use Google. there is a reason he has zero cap for France.

Zouma was injured before the world cup. he is just getting fit recently. kimpebe was only a replacement for mangala. even mangala was ahead of him. he has not even played many match for France. only worthless matches
Lol......you’re so funny zouma and mangala dat have only 5 and 8 caps for the France NT. You ask me for players he’s benching and I never refer u to google.. so dig out d post for me.

About Hernandez, d fact still remains that his prefer position is a CB

.
Laporte (fall out with the coach 0 caps for the national team) you know nothing about France national team.2
Lucas Hernandez? are you sure you know anything about France national team?( a regular leftback for the France national team. started all match in the world cup and still a regular)
lenglet and kimpebe are top CB? these two are even behind Zouma now in the France national team
Now I see, you no nothing bruh. I’m sure u don’t Lucas Hernandez favor position is CB and was played as a left back due to B.mendy fitness issue.
Please get me a screenshot of the fallout btw Laporte and deschamp. Zouma that couldn’t make France World Cup squad to kimpebe

Maguire is more in-form and better than umtiti that did not play most games last season. I don't even think umtiti can survive EPL football, might just be another flop
Una don start again ooo. The main reason for umtiti injuries because he decided not to go under d knife.

Barca are not known for selling players expensive. Aside Naymar, i have not seen any player barca sold up to 75M and yet they always have sound & excellent players. As good as Sanches was, look at the price Arsenal got him.....

Umtiti should have remained at PSG or betterstill, move to a lower side like Tottenham, Man Utd, or even Liverpo. I wonder what made him move to Barca.
You have little knowledge about umtiti

I want you to name them.
do you even realize umtiti was nowhere near the France or Barcelona lineup last season?
Laporte (A mainstay in man City defense and make epl team of d season)
Lucas Hernandez ( former atm defender brought for £90m by Bayern)
Lenglet, kimpebe.

See, u can only see Maguire being targeted by English clubs. Clubs like bayern,Barca,juve or Madrid won’t even consider him

no mind them na

I just dey take corner eye to look at people saying keshi is better because he won Afcon.

Lemme give them another fact.

Do they even know that if Keshi was our coach,we won't even know the likes of Iwobi, Chukwueze, Aina , even their darling Osimhen and Onyekuru.

That is because keshi won't invite them, giving us different mumu excuse. Chukwueze that just played his first professional football won't even get into the provisional list sef, giving us reason that the guy does not have senior team football experience , or he's too young for African football, Chukwueze might have ended up with the U20.

he will only invite his goons from Kano pillar and co.
Keshi was just lucky during is time as SE coach. I feel like crying whenever I look back at our 2014 World Cup bench. Imagine player like uchebo, Ruben Gabriel,uzoenyi,agbim,nwafor wen we have ik Uche,martins, taiwo,ideye,Joel boi in top form

charlesemeka85:
oga it is evident that rohr's team displays better possession football and artistry than that of keshi. if keshi was as good as he made you guys believe why couldn't he sustain the team's success and build on from there just in the space of 1yr?

rohr's team is work in progress which is evident in the teams progression so far. all we lack is top players who can perfect it most especially in the midfield and attack. if keshi was still in charge i will bet my life that youngstars like oshimeh,chukwueze,kalu,aina,ebuehi,iwobi etc wouldn't have debuted for the team let alone making his afcon team with the excuse that they are still rookies and inexperienced in international football.

how em go give them chance when they are alot of bricklayers and carpenters in kano pillars,gombe united and co?
That Keshi do us strong thing oo
In keshi voice. iheanacho is too young............martins is too old.......Uche is indiscipline.

He deny us the opportunity to see Osaze wen he was blazing hot in d epl. He took Mohamed gamboling to d confederation cup as our top striker and made us to believe that agbim is the best keeper in d country

Personally, I'm wondering how much bribe the oil merchants offered FIFA and UEFA this time around before venturing on another ridiculous spending spree. grin
Which one his ridiculous spending spree. This is just their first signing and I don’t think they will make up to three signings.

This guy and Mourinho spoilt football with buying and buying, however proved himself with Porto before spending that's just the difference

When he came to England, and used clowns like sagna, navas, Negredo, zabaleta, etc, he won nada...

Mhen if many of these coaches, coached Arsenal instead of wenger,they'd just have been another villas boas or Alan pardew

Well we expect UCL this year though, no more focus on EPL or carling cup
You’re just pained . How many signings did he make last season?? At least he brought a proven talent unlike United that spent £50m on a player that can’t nail a starting berth in England U-21 team

Believe it or not , this is the best Argentina have played in a while , Survived an initial onslaught and took the fight to Brazil; could’ve had a few goals. Nothing to be down or ashamed about, in fact, I see quite a few positives they can take away.

Now hopefully the Federation resolves their issues and appoints a good coach – and most importantly – sticks with him for a couple years. And I really think this new set of players can win the next Copa America, do well in Qualifiers, and make a fight of it at the next WC too.

Really hope Messi doesn’t retire either, both he and the team looked the best they have in quite a while.
Thanks bro! I watched the match also and I can see how greatly Argentina have improve. They were just so unlucky hitting the pole twice

For 2013 if u say ribery deserved it , then Ronaldo also deserved it in 2012 cos he wrestled la Liga away from Barca... scoring the winning goal that claimed the title at the nou camp... Messi scored goals, but Ronaldo scored decisive goals... Rodriguez was top scorer against all odds, lost to the hosts Brazil... Scored in every game he played in.. scored the best goal of the tournament against Uruguay in the round of 16 ... Had the highest assist ...was also ranked best player of the tournament... Won 5 motm award... With lowly Colombia
Lies just to prove a point
Rodriguez had only 3 MOTM against Messi’s 5
Rodriguez got knocked out in the last 8 while Messi got to the final
Messi had a better rating

South America now have their players trooping into Europe, unlike b4 when south American players played in South America...
