This guy just Dey score like say e easy like that.

If you want to score tap ins and PKs Simy is your guy.
If you need someone to head the ball into the net Onuachu is it.
If you need someone to run defenses ragged and score inside the 18 Osimhen is the one.
If you need someone to score from clinical counter attacks Moffi is your guy.
If you need someone to score from outside the 18 Iheanacho will do
If you need someone to score with any body part and goal mouth scrambles Sadiq is the one.

DrKlever:
Nice. But nothing special about these goals

How many of this kind of goals has Osimhen scored? Especially 30 and 31?

You are a cr7 fan boy

Maduka Okoye makes Netherlands's Voetbalzone.nl's Eredivisie Team of the Season (TOTS) 20/21.

Translated from their site below is their review of the lad:


Maduka Okoye (Sparta Rotterdam):

With competitors such as Remko Pasveer from Vitesse and Sergio Padt from FC Groningen, the choice was not easy, but Okoye had a wonderful season at Sparta in the shadows.
The only 21-year-old Nigerian was only passed 35 times in 28 games and kept the zero 10 times, impressive figures for a goalkeeper from Sparta. Earlier this week, he kept his team going at FC Utrecht (0-0) with a few nice saves, which turned out to be crucial for reaching the play-offs. Robert Maaskant called the 1.97 meters tall lad last week at RTV Rijnmond a 'crazy athlete', while Kees Kwakman put him at the top of his top three revelations in the Eredivisie on Sunday.

"He is very interesting. He came over from Fortuna Düsseldorf for zero euros! Really a great keeper."

Wow this is massive, ultimately saying he's the best goalkeeper in Eredivisie this season.

Karlovych:
Sparta Rotterdam have qualified for the UEFA Conference League

What is uefa conference league ?

Champions league and Europa we know

andrewbaba44:

He meant Uefa Europa Conference League. It Kicks off as from next season (2021/22) as UEFA's third Competition.

But Okoye and Sparta hasn't automatically qualified yet. They have a Euro slots playoffs round to navigate. They take on Feyenoord on Wednesday.

This one is the level of arsenal to participate

Well, there are Dutch league experts and licenced publications that hold this stance.

Nice one but onuachu can’t only head the ball

Omo that simmy too get eye for goal ,dude is a tapin merchant

forgiveness:
Chelsea doesn’t rely on one player like PSG.

Simply because they don't have an exceptional player to rely on. if Chelsea had Neymar or Mbappe, or even Harry Kane, they will always rely on them, same way this same Chelsea relied on Hazard

DrKlever:
you're just a troll. You sef sabi say Chelsea dey ball

Let's place this same bet on UCL final. i am predicting Man City to win, infact i give you 90 mins draw

Stop spreading false news. Where is your source?

I don't see any news relating to the super eagles playing Eypyt in next month FIFA free window

He has great positioning. People don't understand that's one of the hardest part of being a striker...getting into scoring positions.

lloydtruth:
Nigeria should get Adeyemi of Salzburg before it's too late.

Comot eye for that one. He's out of reach.

I must give Rohr his plaudits. Him starting Okoye during those friendlies allowed the lad to showcase his skills and led to his massive turn of fortunes. An excellent find by Rohr and his scouts.

edi287:
Comot eye for that one. He's out of reach.

We can't just sit back and claim he's out of reach, me need to make a move first and see him refuse then we can say he's out of reach. Don't be surprised he may not be in the plans of Germany, after all he last played for them in 2019 at U17 level and hasn't been considered for their team at the euro U21 championship. We need quality players in our team and shouldn't be scared of approaching them, this is the best time to get Adeyemi, not until he joins a top club we will start grumbling at his preference to a bigger national team.

andrewbaba44:
You mean simmy or onuachu ?

Simmy.

edi287:
Simmy.

People will think simmy goals are easy goals

His positioning is top notch

Scoring 20 goals for a poor crotone side no be moi moi

I dislike when people trivalize others goal by calling I "tap in" if it was so easy to tap in, why isn't every striker tapping in? But good analogy tho and it's true

Tapin is not an insult

Cr7 is a professional tapin merchant ,thou he do scores other good goals

Cr7 is still one of the greatest despite being a tapin merchant

It is bro people use the word "tap in" to demean or belittle your goal that's why they call Ronaldo, Tapino or penaldo trying to belittle his goals. Tap ins requires positional awareness, precision and decisiveness to do it accurately

If tapin is easy then all strikers won’t lack goals
