Just couldn't comprehend how a lot of people are missing the point Victor was trying to prove...

The goal here is to score as many goals as possible against any opponent and at any given chance...

Shebi, it is Mozambique team that's not that good that's why it looks like the Nigerian team is good... Let them meet with better and faster players of other countries, then they will understand what Osimhen is saying.

When you have a good chance to score a goal, you shoot and score.. Now when you do not have a good chance for a goal, but your teammate is standing at a good position to score, you pass the ball to him immediately and not dribble till you pass the ball to him...

This is one point with the Spanish national team, it doesn't matter who scores, the aim is to score as many goals as possible... That's why they can win 5 to 6 goals ahead because they are more particular about the outcome than the ego of any player...

That people are bashing Osimhen today shows that Nigerians do not really have the capacity to process information and we are only about if something is working you don't need to improve on it...

Just imagine, if we were playing a team like Senegal who have had more comeback goals in this tournament than any other team, and you have a chance like that and you did not bury it...

That's when people will now come to blame Lookman for not passing to Osinmen when he should....
People like you are the ones that will kill Osimhen's career.

Osimhen was wrong in his approach of the issue even if he had a case, the messed up big time in how he presented his case. It took two Mozambique players to stop Osimhen from assaulting his own team mate. How shameful can a player be

It is people like you who would complain the most when we lose..

So for you mind nah, when you are playing ball, you will be calculating in your mind how we are in the 70th minute and we already are 3 goals up so we can do as we like on the pitch...?

You see the problem with people like you, you are always hateful of someone who knows what he or she wants...

Osimhen knows we need to keep scoring as much goals as we can...
lol hateful over what's just c'mon sense, it happens in every game, very recently ppl were accusing Saka of being selfish, do u see other top players in the team fighting him on the pitch, and many examples like that..... things like that kills teams unity and should be avoided at all cost, there are ways to talk to your team mates without being arrogant and acting childish on the pitch....stop encouraging nonsense

Honestly,they are killing that guy spirit and moral,Osimhen deserve playing for Spain national team or Barcelona as a club or playing under the tutelage of Pep Guadiola. The Nigeria team is on track to set or break records at this Afcon but that mediocre Nigeria evil spirit will always want to rise up against them. Really pathetic such issues generational

Did you watch the UEFA finals match between Atalanta and Leverkusen? Lookman's outside the box shots gave the Serie A side the trophy. Every footballer has a playing style. Talking rather than fighting your teammate is a better approach. The aggression of Osimhen can destroy a lot in the lockerroom.
Re: AFCON: Lookman Reacts To Osimhen's Outburst (Video) by Ajsmart(m): 11:18am On Jan 06
A professionally matured player can correct his team mates without needless emotional outburst to the point he has to be restricted by his captain and opponents. That’s an emotionally and intellectually challenged player who can’t seem to get his points across without temper tantrums. Osimhen need to grow up!

PlayerMeji:
If you are looking for a politically-correct individual, it is not in the field of play when you are at the heat of the game... So you might say it was too obvious but my brother, that's the one place and only place Osimhen could have corrected that...

You people are just acting like he should have called him aside as if that's what you personally do when you get angry..

You are an enemy of Osimhen if you keep defending his disgraceful acts because no manager wants an uncontrollable player

Nothing happened yet the video evidence is going viral and football analysts are criticising Osimhen globally.

Did you close the eyes of the spectators in the stadium from seeing the shameful attack by Osimhen? Or did you block the TV transmission from those people that watched it on TV.

Do you not see how shameful it is for two members of the opposing team to be the ones to hold you from beating up your own team mate

That is it
And Eric Chelle has to watch it and not get carried away.

Thankfully we have a coach that loves, likes, and appreciates beautiful football which the skillful super Eagles players love as well.

So Osihmen is right they have to maintain discipline and professionalism while at the same time trying to express their creativity.

Eric tell your team to be clinical in front of goal going forward.

Let the ball be passed to the nearest man in the best position to finish off.

While noting your point, the need for more goals, which I also advocate for, Osimhen was plain arrogant and disrespectful!

And to show he has no remorse, he even left immediately without celebrating with the team.

Your point is noted but you do NOT communicate your grouse on-field with that disrespectful attitude to fellow players! Come on, that goal isn't worth team morale!

If other players don't want Osimhen to see one shot on goal not even to score, it will be difficult for him.

Question is: will he put up that attitude at his club side? You know the answer.

Thank you.
Osimhen was right, just that he became too temperamental. There's always this envy and ego in the mind of everybody. The role of a good psychologist in a football team is to suppress this anticipatory attitude. The goals scored at any match belong to Nigeria, it should be viewed as that. It's not a personal match, but for the nation.

No he is not jealous

The coach game plan for this super Eagles team does not favour him, so him leg no dey see ball much. So he was soo frustrated. The system of play favors wingers and midfielders more.

Lookman had a field day yesterday, he was dictating things,

He played like a playmaker a natural 10 yesterday. By a mile deserved MOTM.

You guys had to understand that Osihmen level of aggression is 100%

He is very aggressive like Ramos, Pepe, Rudiger, Diego Costa

this is the point I tried to prove to some folks here on nairaland, but they won't just see it. Nigeria had not faced any tougher opponents in this Afcon, which is why they won't understand osimhen s point. And until they do and we're needing a goal and no space to create such chances, na then their eyes go open, and it might be too late

Re: AFCON: Lookman Reacts To Osimhen's Outburst (Video) by runningriot: 11:47am On Jan 06
Osimeh behavior was so inordinate and highly repulsive and impulsive. As a professional player of his pedigree he shouldn't have behaved the way he did. Apparently, he has no right to fight or talk to any player in that manner not even the captain or coach has that right. Moreso, this same player gave you two assists what a selfish and self centered man this is the true replica of how we humans are, so quick to forget the positive aspects of life and focus on negativity. This attitude is a sum total of a biter and acrimonious person how will you speak to a player like that? would he be happy if he was spoken to like that? in this Afcon if we are to rate base on performance Lookman is the star of the team. Arbitrarily, he is magnificent and full of aura his dribble and passes are dangerous and deadly. He makes quick, intentional and decisive moves his assists are full of precision like a bunker busters. Osimeh should learn emotional resilience and apologize he is not and can't be too big for the club. Like what happened yesterday rings in my head like a horror Hollywood movie. Come on, like who gave him that mind, audacity and temerity to behave that way to another player omo... that guy went to far...

Very matured response though he and Akor started playing selfishly after the third goal, Osimhen's outburst was uncalled for. This is the third time he is having a controversy around him in this tournament. It's high time Chelle grows some balls and start benching him
osimhen's outburst was right. when you have the opportunity to score goals, score. don't have mercy on your opponent because Nigeria has not faced a tougher team in this afcon. Do you think if they face a tougher opponent they are going to be creating such spaces? if you have that spaces find the ball to the right person, let him convert it. Because you see this nonsense they played yesterday, they might say they want to try it with a bigger opponent which will not work
