Napoli doing perfectly well without Osimhen.
I said it Osimhen needs to stop the shoulder Raising egotistical behaviour he has been showing. Becausse he may have just lost his place as a starting No. 9 just as he has lost his place as the star of the team to the Gerogian guy Khvara…. In life they say if you are not humble Life will teach you Humility.. Osimhen over to you now. Lets see if you can stop with the Social Media Memes and actually start scoring goals at a frightening nature.
People like you are the reason he may be ‘raising shoulders’, if i were to use your words. Sometime last year you were wailing that instead of the then captain, Insigne, Osimhen should be saddled with the responsiblity of taking penalties ahead of senior players. Now you are saying he is raising egocentric shoulder. Ajala ta nna o? Thats hypocrisy in my opinion.
@Muyiwa, this isn’t hypocrisy but really expressing it the obvious way it is. Osimhen has been struggling to convince since the start of the season as he is involved in some distractive acts such as the bruhaha with the elder sister and her husband over financial transactions, the training pitch duel with his team mate,, racist taunts, etc . Really he needs to focus on his job and shun distractions otherwise that unsung boy would take the shine away from his fledging career
@Elhaj Arafat thank you for stating the obvious that my comment meant no harm it is just a obvious word of encouragement to Osibobo who needs to focus on his career and be as serious and humble as european players e.g. a specific Haaland comes to mind who people in this forum know I have in the past stuck my head out and said that Haaland and Osimhen have the same ability, I am feeling alittle let down by Osimhen that is all. People in this forum know that Nobody has backed this boy pontential more than me..
@MuYiwa yes I suggested that because of the huge belief i have in Osimhen but the way he is handling this lime light is similar to Balotteli and god forbid that I will want Osimhen to be another Balotteli. the Boy needs to tone it down and really ask himself what is more important focussing and working hard on being the best in his trade or focusing on Social Media and Nigerians will do well to call a spade a spade with this boy and stop the bias praise like they have done with Ahmed musa all his career and as we can see it did Musa no good in his career. Do we want Osimhen to be another Musa or Obafemi Martins?????????
I hope Peseiro will begin to work on the midfield as he is working on Goal keeping. Atleast 6 midfielders must be invited henceforth. Modern football is won from the middle.
The midfield is already working itself out.
Indidi/ Raphael or Alhassan (as our defensive midfielder)
According to their current form.
Iwobi is our central (our pirlo) , he will just need to switch position with Aribo. Under Rohr and Other coaches, Aribo played behind Iwobi but this time, I’ll suggest Aribo play upfront the way he plays for Southampton. That’s all. Then may be we try and convince Eze and Olise to join them as we all know those two need serious competitions. Then let our new Chairman arrange friendlies for us to blend the midfield that’s all. Iwobi and Aribo already have good understanding.
And by now, I expect our coaches to be calling all goalkeepers they come across to the camp now, either he plays for reserve or division two or play in Tokyo at least one will work one day. Bazunu was once an unknown league player, now, he plays Southampton (the guy should have been our number one by now)
Okoye /Uzoho (as we never get other choice)

As for me from what I saw alst night I will prefer Onyedika ahead of Ndidi
Ghanaian players are doing very well. Kudus scored again, Sowah scored for club Brugge and Denis Odoi had a fantastic night
When you score one, but your team was WOTOWOTIZED with 6 goals, is that doing well?
Collecting 6 in front of your home fans is the stuff of nightmares. The Ajax coach wanted the ground to open up and cover him, but the ground refused. So he had to just stand there and take it on the chin. Ouch.
You are so funny!
🙂
Hahaha, the poor guy looked nonplussed on the touch line.
Total bewilderment.
He’s scored in almost every champions league game he has played in this season. That’s even doing more than well. He can’t be a goal keeper, a defender, a midfielder and a striker at the same time. He’s done great in his position
Alright then. Let him continue to “do well”, scoring goals and losing key games heavily.
