Sadiq umar is far better than Victor Osihmen of today.

Victor Osimhen is a shadow of himself. The truth is that he is not in good form and should not be invited to the super eagles next match. L watched him play yesterday. Through out the duration of the match he was an eye sore. Sadiq and Paul are better strikers and they should be picked ahead of Victor in our next match.
Dr simone Toto…S.umar far far better than v.oshimen as of today..
You won several player of the month in Serbia league, many said it’s a fluke that you should try a better league. Now you have done it again, still many will doubt your talent. Stay focus and continue to work hard, the sky is your limit.
