All I'm saying is that we should allow the Coach to manage the situation.
All the public outcry is like pouring fuel on fire.

alobright17:
how can you call someone that has more assist and goal contribution on the nation's cup selfish ? Yet you claim you know football?

Besides if you Sabi football you won't even support such act oshimeh put out against fellow player that gave him assist just because the ball couldn't get to him from the same player again .

There's no amount of defend or justification that is going to make sense here .

Now he's threatening to leave the camp,he signal for his own sub ,push away the captain trying to calm him down, that's character you're defending.

Do you think Messi doesn't get to position of scoring they won't pass to him yet he kept doing 1 million times better than the oshimeh.
So in that case you want to say Messi isn't serious and want good result all because he did not shout to his teammates for not passing to him .

They're even 3 zero up already shey football Na do or die ? People do miss last penalty to win trophy and yet player do rally around them to console them ,that's what is called team spirit. Stop defending bad things so they won't come to you .

Read the post about him wanting to leave the camp .you'll understand.

alobright17:
if we should allow the coach handle it why do we call out players for missing chances ,why do we call out refs for bad officiating instead of allowing ref boards to deal with the matter ?

We're talking about what we witnessed during the game and how inappropriate it is and you're saying we shouldn't talk about it ? Like dude are you being serious right now ?

So even if a player slap another we the viewers shouldn't discuss about it we should just zip our mouth and allow coach to handle it.

We condemning how he treated his fellow player tell me how it stops the coach from handling the matter if he wants to ?

Why do we criticise bad behaviour of police instead of allowing their heads to handle it so that we will not fuel the matter ? You ran to defend player bullying a team mate and saying we shouldn't talk about it .just imagine .

Boyooosa:
Dem go humble am for that kind place, who he be
As much as I like him for his passion and attainments, inability to manage his anger pisses me off...I think he needs therapy on that

GanagiBitrus:
Much ado about nothing.
The outburst was driven by his passion to excel for himself & his country.

The coach will talk to him, apologies will be made, & the team moves on. ✌️

GanagiBitrus:
I think it will be wise to 1st hear from the parties involved (The coach, Lookman, Osimhen, NFA...) before reacting.
Escalating the matter on Social Media & condemning the player, before hearing from these parties would be counterproductive.

DarkJeddi:
Call a spade a spade.
Osimhen has attitude issues and that's why he's at the backwaters of European football at his prime.

alobright17:
I'm talking based on what I saw with my two eyes while watching the match last night I and others was like asking why is he even bullying a fellow player all because he did not pass to him .

You don't expect me not to talk about what I witnessed and condemn such act first bro.

GanagiBitrus:

GanagiBitrus:
You speak from the perspective of ordinary fans, I speak from the perspective of the Coach.

If the coach was to give a press statement, he will tow my line & downplay the incident. That's what makes him a good coach; to effectively manage players with different attitudes & characters for the overall success of the team.

CoolAmbience:
Please, find something else to talk about, as you have said nothing about anything.

It is rather unfortunate that you have decided to sugar-coat things instead of addressing them, objectively.

Why would Osimhen ask to be subbed or even treat skipper Ndidi the way he did in the full glare of the continent? Lets learn to call a spade by its name.

Spare me the empty differentiation of fan-coach perspectives, as that would make no real meaning to anyone who understands the place of mutual respect and good conduct in the proper functioning of any system.

In case you care to know, I am a football person through and through. You cannot place me at the fan level, and yourself at coach level, when you do not even know me. If you have the slightest knowledge of football as you claim, then you'd address the Osimhen outburst very differently, devoid of emotions.

NOETHNICITY:
Bro, I know you are somehow connected to osimhen one way or another. We are also from same state. But please warn him about the need to learn humility and how to control his temperament in public.

manuelkel:
It doesn't affect any team's spirit, nobody is above scolding.
Give me the ball man, don't gamble a 1vs1 display against opponent when I'm already spaced out brilliantly waiting for your pass.
Have Osimhen ever condemned Lookman when he scores Osimhen's happy when his wingers score, but don't gamble with his spaces as a center forward you're bond to overreact, you see Kane score 4-5 goals per match, why?? His wingers don't gamble when they shouldn't. It's simple tactics. Don't gamble when you're sidelined and your attack is spaced brilliantly waiting for you.

HeadNigga:
Two wrongs don't make a right. Osimhen really went too far with his reaction. But we should not forget the root cause; lookman's extra ordinary selfishness.

Fiscus105:
That guy needs to work on his anger and ego, if indeed, he wants to be at level of world class.

I imagine how he will cope if he goes to Real Madrid, where he will be playing with world class players.

douchesnozzle:
ECOWAS Halaand thinks highly of himself. For someone playing in a stupid league in turkey shouldn't be having such ego. No wonder no top club came for him. The coach better address this his issue before it destroys the team.

omoredia:
Nigeria is a very tribal entity. That is a factor

zedman1:
Who made it so? You and the likes of you Sir.

bajosky:
Let's thread carefully with AFCON uncertainty glaring at us .
1. A mere mentioning of Osihimen in super Eagles line up send fear to any opposition.
2.Attention given to Osihimen by other teams since last Nation's Cup made way for Lookman to shine and excel as well as giving Nigeria a tactical edge if playing both offensive and defensively.

3. If Osihimen decides to quit as the ovation is high people calling him foolish will be same to cry out Super Eagles will be heavily humiliated when their star dreaded player isn't available.

4. I see a gang up within the team to frustrate Vo9 influence and popularity in the team same way it happened during coach Finidi time in charge .

5. Lookman should be careful of the what he or his gang are cooking up against Vo9 in other to have him become highest goal scorerer of the team or tournament.


You made valid point and thank God the conflict has been sorted...but yet, Osimen needs to calm and manage his aggression better
6. Frustrating Vo9 will indirectly bring doom to Lookman and Nigeria who ought to work as a team in other to win the trophy .

7.The coach and Mgmnt should give out matching order for all hands to be on deck with respect to available strategy the teams adopts to earn victory.

8.Vo9 is very important to the Super Eagles team at this stage ,team work is crucial and reconciliation is non negotiable.

AFCON is ours NIGERIA carry go

GanagiBitrus:
The news that the matter has been resolved has vindicated me. You all were making a big issue out of something minor.

&when I say "perspective of a fan", it simply means you are seeing things from viewpoint of a fan, even if you may be a coach.

CoolAmbience:
To think you that you called that 'full glare outburst' a minor issue gives an idea how you process things as an individual.

Certainly a worrisome sense of judgement for someone with coach-cadre perspective of football.

CoolAmbience:
You seem to have issues with usage of grammar.
Did anyone say that the matter should not or could not be resolved?
What has vindicate has to do we what you or I said before?
So, discipline is not a perspective of a coach?
My brother, Osimhen has serious disciplinary issues and if the national team's management continues to turn blind eyes to it, na dem sabi.

manuelkel:
Unarguably, he's got a bad attitude, but something triggers such attitude.
Osimhen is hungry and thirst for more, as a center forward it's annoying when your teammates become indecisive when pressuring.
Is it a big deal to just pass when necessary?
I've watched a lot of his matches, he overreacts when you don't give him what he wants which is the ball.
Just give him the ball when you are sidelined by an opponent, he's always there, always in the right angles.
Also, have Osimhen ever scold Lookman when he(Lookman) scores?? Infact Osimhen is always the fess to run to his wingers when they score.
But just give him the ball when you're sidelined, don't gamble a 1vs1 display when pressuring knowing quite well Osimhen has the space, he's spaced brilliantly, he will also point to you the spaces, don't gamble a 1vs1 display give him the ball. Then if eventually you gamble right and score he will be happy, but if you don't it annoys him because he sees it as a clear miss of chances.
I played CF role, it's annoying when your wingers are indecisive and gamble with opportunities like this after the runnings and energy wasted. Same reason Wayne Rooney overreacted at old Trafford .
I saw someone who mentioned that teams don't want him because of his attitude, that's a fact lie. A big fat lie!!

Morizo:
U

It's not a lie, his attitude has kept him in Turkey. The likes of Balotelli were lucky to play in some big clubs cos back then players data as per attitudes weren't processed. These days it's a data driven scouting network and everything about your behaviour is weighed and matched against what you'll bring to the table while alternatives will be placed side by side

So you think other players there aren't driven by the desire to succeed for their country? He can't play with top players, ask Liverpool players and Egyptian players about Salah selfishness. But he's still one of the best because of attitude and players around him are professional enough to tolerate him and leave discipline issues for the coach. It's the coaching staff job to talk to Look man and not him. It was 3 nil against Mozambique so every player sees it as an opportunity to score a goal

Top top player but a rotten attitude.

GanagiBitrus:
Maybe.
But let's allow the Coach to handle him. That's his job.

&let's only condemn or pass judgment on Osimhen only after hearing the official responses from the Coach, Lookman, Osimhen & NFA.

Already Lookman has downplayed the incident.

Lamasta:
I just don't understand why most of you will come online and be typing information that is not correct against your own countryman all in a bid to make him look worthless or useless

Osimhen was never turned down by any club due to attitude or whatever, the asking price was the major concern cos big teams were complaining his value price was too much for them to pay for apart from the money requested by Napoli which is much for Osimhen no other complaints was tendered on Osimhen as you lots are justifying against the young Man

You guys should just let Osimhen be and stop this wicked campaign against the young man, the hatred is just too much and majority of you guys your characters are nothing to write home about

DarkJeddi:
We don't have to wait for any official response from anyone to air our views.

Osimhen has attitude problems and he needs to be told so in no uncertain terms.

DarkJeddi:
Oga,you can continue to play the Ostrich if you want ..

The only reason Osimhen is in Turkey is because his attitude stinks.

A Striker of his calibre has no business in Turkey at this stage of his career if not for his perceived difficult personality.

Perception is REALITY.

He's rude ,uncouth and reactionary and non of the European elites wants to touch him with a tenfoot pole.

Whilst players like Ekitike, Gyorkeres,Woltamade and Sesko ,who are not fit to tie his boots are going to top teams he has to make do with Turkey?

Talent can only carry you so far,ask Balloteli.
