Sorry, sir.


Osimhen is greater

naijapikin2:
Ikpeba the controversial pundit.. why didn't he criticize the keeper.. what has he to say about the other players? Singling out one player. However oshimhen should have ignored him.. what if oshimhen had scored would he have criticized the style?

aribisala0:

How? What has he achieved?
Ikpeba has an Olympic Gold Medal
Won African Nations Cup
African Footballer of the year
Was in the First ever Nigerian team to the World Cup


Osimhen might never go to World Cup

MadamVanessa:



Victor Ikpeba should've respected his age and himself.

The way and Manner he talks was as if Victor Osimhen deliberately took that bicycle kick. To me , there's no way Osimhen could have kick the ball more than that, the situation at that moment demanded that style.

timay1:

If Salah, Aubameyang, and Mane were also playing in the Ikpeba era, you think Ikpeba will win Africa's best? These guys presently are ridiculously good, churning out crazy stats every season.

Salah is even too good for Africa's best presently, his stats and performance is Baloon d'or contender every year.

rickpat:
this super eagles lack discipline and respect.... oshimen can't even lace ikpeba's boot during his time...ikpeba was a bicycle kick expert so he has a right to criticize oshimen... I think ikpeba should be more of a mentor to oshimen... oshimen is mannerless,whether in football ability, football achievement and age...HE NO REACH IKPEBA

BluntTheApostle:


That guy was probably born in 2003-upward or is currently drunk.

Imagine saying Osimhen is greater than Ikpeba, the very Prince of Monaco.

Osimhen that cannot even claim to be greater than Ighalo.

It's easy to sit and criticize, very very easy.

Samunique:
You're a good annalist with a very good sense of judgement !

I'm still surprised that people are yet to understand that Oshimen was one the reason we lost out, beside the clueless, uninspiring coach.

If Oshimen was cool headed and not trying to do too much and playing to the gallery, he would have gotten one or two goals in those matches.

But he wanted to do it all alone !

If our coach was smart enough, he shouldn't have started Oshimen bcs he had been planned for by the Ghanians , he would have taken them by surprise

Many of you are yet to understand that Oshimen was one of the reasons we lost to CAR in Lagos.

Early in the game, Oshimen was played through on goal outside the box, I had expected him to run into the box before taking the shot have beaten their last defender with speed. An experience player would know that anything that'll make that defender to touch him would be a straight red card and penality, but Oshimen decided to take a long shot out the box that went wide, and that was what would have changed that game entirely.

Oshimen is a good player no doubt, but he needs to learn how to be cool headed, football no be by gragra na tactics !

robosky02:
Wisdom demands you don't respond to all criticism

Some are actually constructive



By the way, it even important when its coming from a legend who has achieved what you are dreaming of

San2ski:


It's a lie. If they played at the same time Osimhen go bench ikpeba.
Which kind nonsense mentor, criticizing him when he was the only life wire in a crucial match like that where he lost and is still hurting.
And come to think of it, those bicycle kicks are just what the occasion demanded that time. If the balls came lower than those, those Ghanaian defenders woulda pounced too. So Ikpeba talked trash really

Like he talked when he supported Bubu NEPA Certificate

phemmyfour:
From the way he handles his social media, you LL know that he's not going to last if he continues in that path. He get easily distracted and not ready learn both on and off the pitch

rickpat:
most people here don't even know or watch ikpeba....just give osimhen five or six years he will be playing in Saudi Arabia...trust me...the boy is too distracted... he should see a ikpeba as a mentor...he talks too much

udemzyudex:
It's easy to sit and criticize, very very easy.

aribisala0:
They do not play the same position. so you really do not know football

The person that Osimhen would be looking at benching in that team would be Rashidi Yekini which would be a very funny joke.

BabaO2:
We need to call spade a spade, oshimen is just a 'gragra' player not too good, at least we saw the 19year old burkinafaso Quattara superb footbal display. Objective coaches would have chosen Amoo to contest that ghana match but sentiment will not allow them.

aikyg:
True! We lost the matches in both legs because our coach picked Osimhen as his pointman, instead of Iheanacho, and Osimhen could not score goals. He was just busy displaying and doing fruitless gra gra. Ghana defenders successfully punctured his threats. After Eguavoen, na Osimhen get the closest biggest blame.

phemmyfour:
I ve never seen a serious footballer that talk this much on social media

Eastcaostboy:
I guess you didn't watch that match.. Osimhen, did his best even score but his goal was disqualified. They did their best but the matches were their worst-luck

superCleanworks:


victor ikpeba really messed up with that stuwpeed comment.
bicycle kick is something more or reflex, spur of the moment and impulse thinking that is related with the ability to do so.
Osimhen was the only player alive on the pitch that day and he is a top quality striker who acted on impulse to execute the kick to reach a desired result but that V.Ikpeba lashed him as if he did it for clout of fancy playing. Ikpeba played as a striker and should have known better than making such a tasteless comment. Now people are trying to play the "age sentiment card" and I wish Osimhen would never ever apologise.

Samunique:

Yes giving his best without sense ?

Yes running around the pitch without strategies, what was the end result ?

Football is more than power play, it's all about the smart and doing the right thing at the right time !

SmartyPants:


Osimhen already has the best goal-to-game ratio in the history of the Super Eagles, truth be told. He probably benches Yekini with ease.
