I personally feel getting Osimhen to cut on his forward runs will kill his game. He needs to move a club that plays full offensive football and attack in mass. With this, his attacking runs asset will be appreciated.

Now that's a problem because the top teams do not play a pyramid structure.

The level of interchanging is immense with mist of the top teams in the top leagues.

Which team would you suggest ❓

Victor Boniface X Nathan Tella

The Leverkusen Super Eagles looking forward to the Europa League Quarter finals vs West Ham.

There's something about Boni, he's got that rapier feel to him.

Everyone loves him, he radiates that jolly energy.

You say taka? Osimhen cannot thrive in tiki taka abeg

Taka shares similar principles with Tiki Taka but it does less buildup and more offensive approach.

By the way, Osimhen worked with Amunike who played an adaptation of Tiki Taka. He thrived.

Anybody that watched afcon will see that osimhen is actually more technical than people claim. He will even make a good wing forward. Hid all round play is very good.

Very good point and this draws me to a brilliant striker of the past. Nicolas Anelka. His biggest asset was being able to play on both wings. He used to drive to the gaps on the wings to evade central defenders and go for goal. Another player that did that a lot was Ronaldo De Lima.

I think what Osimhen needs is a sound tactical coach, we saw how he excelled working with Spalleti.

Plus Raphael Onyedika curling loops. Have seen him bend balls from the middle for strikers.
None of our. Midfielders has that ability.

I completely agree with @TheSuperNerd on Raphael Onyedika starting our middle henceforth.

Raphael Onyedika has indeed made a name for himself with his impressive long-range shooting abilities. His recent performance for Club Brugge, where he scored two long-range stunners in a victory over Anderlecht, has highlighted his potential and skills. Such precision and ability to score from distance can be a significant asset for any team, especially in matches against strong defensive African sides. NB: WE ARE PLAYING BANANA BANANA SOON grin

Super eagles team’s strategy and player selection are crucial and no coach us yet to get a rhythm in that middle. I feel a player like Onyedika could indeed provide an edge with his long-range shooting prowess. While having Nwakali playing from the deep. Goodness cool

Ultimately, the decision to start a player in every game is up to the coach, who must consider various factors such as team dynamics, the opponent’s strengths and weaknesses, and the player’s form and fitness. However, Onyedika’s recent displays certainly make a strong case for his inclusion in the starting lineup.

If indeed that is a verbatim quote from Drogba it gives credence to my view and cements it unquestionably.

It seems you need an English Lesson , what does absurd mean ❓utterly or obviously senseless, illogical, or untrue; contrary to all reason or common sense; laughably foolish or false:

What did I say there was nothing great about the goal more of a reflection of abysmal defending that nearly caused VO to have a serious injury 🤕.

And Drogba is saying essentially by substance what I've deduced.

And 17 people like what they thought 💭 to be contrary opposing view to mine. It proves that intelligence doesn't rest with the majority.

Chei 😳😳
Baba leave English, the more grammar you write, the more brainless your posts seem. Your posts should be blurred and censored, with a warning to anyone who intends to read them. Sheesh! 🙄

Just writing off the point. Xabi Alonso had no experience in top football coaching. So people should kill all that top football coaching experience. It is proven from Xabi Alonso, to Guardiola, to Enrique. An amateur coach will outclass a highly experienced one in top level if his coaching philosophy and application is sound.

Football playing experience and pedigree is not coaching talent, if not many greats would be top coaches today.

Finito.

Coaching at a professional club for two seasons in the name of Real Sociedad B is not a big enough club.

In general Managers will start with a good quality club and prove themselves before moving to a big club.

Very rarely will you start at a big club.

In this regard Real S B is a good point to start from.

This is how pressure is unnecessarily mounted on footballers.

Osimhen has many incredible qualities, but technique is not one of them.

You see the way Roy Keane is attacking Haaland's technical attributes, Osimhen will get the same in England.

Focus on his strengths, not everybody can be a Kane.
