Lehin odun melo? (After how many years?)

There was a time not too long ago under Gernot that he could not cross to save his life, na so so inverted winger we dey hear as excuse
The whole team regressed badly under Rohr

given he is not a newbie in serie a, his stats now are too low for someone of his caliber. Osimhen with same appearances and availability will post better returns. I can only feel for conte who had to lose osimhen due to an agreement preceding his arrival.

This is how creative I want Looman to also be when playing for the eagles. He doesn't always have to go for the goal himself especially when he isn't sure of it.
Lookman in his last 5 games for Atalanta no longer plays as an AML or LSS but now plays as a false 9 in a 2-man attack ,with Pasalic playing behind them as CAM.

Omo make wrong transfer no kee lookman career Sha

He needs to go where he'd be a stater even when he loses form


Going to a big team with many big players might hinder his growth sha
As long as he is deployed as a false 9 or very close to the box.He will thrive.

We won't see his best if they choose to play him as an inverted winger or a wide forward.

Pair him in attack with another 9 and see him explode.

He plays there, it just depends on given instance of play or attack pattern that allows him often move to the false 9 role.

That Retegui miss, na to wipe am oraimo cord for neck
That was painful mehn!
That thing fit happen to any striker, but e pain me 'cos na last chance and waste of well garnished and gift-wrapped assist. Haaland missed worse than this against Man Yoo last season...

The main person that sold this match was Ruggeri, the clown dey surrounded by 3 defenders while Lookman dey stealth mode, unmarked dey wait make the dolo square play, the mumu dey find goal too. Na why the coach comot the clown.

He gave assist problem, better position to score problem. I just tire. Madrid had no business winning that game.
Apt!

Even Atalanta's goalkeeper that's good on a normal day see Madrid, baba start dey shake, the goals wey he concede, Curtois go save them without breaking a sweat.

Na that Pasalic we dey look for for Super Eagles right now. Plus, while we already have an attacking Aina, We need something similar to what Kolasinac does for Atalanta. Guy ran in and got PK AGAINST MADRID.


What excuses do we need again? I think it will be sweet to see how to replicate an advanced form of Peseiro Afcon tactics IMO.


I noticed at some point, Atalanta left middle for Madrid but Madrid still used wings. Such tactical setup means Gasperini planned well for them. Plus how fast they transitioned with shot passes. Who will imagine Ketalaere being a problem for Almighty Rudiger.

No be when dem invite players to camp naim dem go dey plan tactics. Let them start during days of club duty. No be only us no get time to dey plan approach abeg.

Lookman should remain in Atlanta.
Atalanta is an emerging force in European football. We saw this last night

There is a saying that football begins at 30 in Italy. Lookman is nearing that age and he is the most important player in this rising team.

He is a hero and legend in Atlanta that even when he drops in form he will always get playing time.

Victor Osimhen will not be playing the Europa League fixture against Malmö FF as a result of a slight muscle strain injury picked in his last game 🆚 Sivasspor 😮‍💨
