Osimhen is already on 6 league goals in Turkey's Super Lig from just 5 league games. At this rate, he will smash past whatever best season any of his Naija colleagues achieved in Turkey. Onuachu didn't do more than 15 goals in the Super Lig and this was 23/24 season.

Onyekuru's best ever in turkey was 14 league goals in 18/19. Nwakaeme's was 13 league goals in 21/22 season.

So anyone using these guys as benchmark have got to be kidding me absolutely.
He just need to stay injury free he will score 20+ goals

Was there ever a time Onuachu or Nwkaeme scored more than 15 goals a season playing in the Turkish league?
Or tearing a league now have a new definition?
Onuachu scored 15 in 21 in 23/24 season. It’s a league for washed up players or upcoming not a world class player in his prime

Madrid fans: **Silence**

Arsenal fans: **Silence**

Liverpool fans: **semi-silence** whispers "we have salah even though Nunez is our 9"

Sporting fans: We have f**King Gyokeresssss!!

Napoli fans: Well, we have Lukaku now but used to have...

GALA Fans interrupt: Taaaa!!! Used to have what??!! Listen!!! He is ours!!! WE HAVE KING VICTOR OSIMHEN!!!! THE MONSTER MACHINE!!! So bring it on!!!

Goal and assist vs Spurs on Away ground. Omo.

They haven't properly recovered from Osimhen's flogging days back.

Apart from Osimhen Goal, we also have a Josh Maja Goal

Osimhen shows his ability to shine always either in a lone striker role or in a 2 striker setup.

The inevitability of the Monster Machine Grows.
Man cannot but just shine. He's a Victor

Delap would have made a perfect backup for Haaland but Haaland is the guy that wants to play every match. Sad we had to let him go. Glad he is doing well.

You are over flogging a dead horse 🐎.

My view of him your midfield general maestro generational talent Nwakali has been consistent.

Simply mediocre and has absolutely no business being in the SE.
You are bigger than this display. I made points. Attack the points, not the person.

I am glad Delap is getting games honestly. He has been so good this season so far in the EPL. Still only 21. Would be 22 next February.

Man City currently don't have a proper Number 9 deputy for Haaland after Julian Alvarez left for Atletico. Delap would have been that guy but then, he won't be having the sort of season he is having now if he were still at City.

6 EPL goals in 10 games. Impressive.

But Newcastle doing well so far to stop the root spread of the Forest in the top 3 zone of the EPL the.

Meanwhile Ola Aina and Forest seem to be growing roots in that Top 3 zone on the EPL table.

Nuno Espirito Santo is cooking.

Lookman was one of the overall best performers at the AFCON, he could equally have won the MVP also but it was given to Ekong deservedly.
There is no metrics CAF or anyone can use which Lookman does not come atop.

EXCLUSIVE: Ahmed Musa, Rabiu Ali boost CHAN Eagles

https://scorenigeria.com.ng/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/ahmed-musa-eagles-presser-afcon.jpg
*Ahmed Musa - Set to join CHAN Eagles

Top officials have told SCORENigeria that the CHAN Eagles will be boosted with the inclusion of Ahmed Musa and Rabiu Ali for final playoff against arch-rivals Ghana next month.

Coach Augustine Eguavoen will name both players on a final squad in the first week of December.

“Ignore what you have read about Ahmed Musa and the CHAN Eagles. He and Rabiu Ali will be called up for the home-based super Eagles,” a reliable source told SCORENigeria

Both players have been on top form for Kano Pillars.

Ahmed Musa is the most capped Nigeria international and has played in Holland, Russia, England, Saudi Arabia and Turkey.

He has netted four times in his third return to Pillars, while Rabiu Ali has continued to turn back the hand of the clock with some sparkling performances for his hometown club even in his 40s.

On Saturday, he snatched the late winner for Pillars at Bendel Insurance.

He is now the second leading scorer in the NPFL with six goals.

The inspirational midfield general featured for the CHAN Eagles when they reached the semifinals in 2014 in South Africa.

The CHAN Eagles will do battle with their Ghanaian counterparts between December 20 and 27 for a spot at next year’s CHAN to be hosted by Uganda, Tanzania and Kenya.

I thought owngoal said it's only players on a long contract that can play CHAN and that's the reason they were not in the first squad list.
