So are you trying to say that he doesn't merit his place in the super eagles team?
Which of our central forwarder right now that is better than him?
It's good that everyone there should be there base on merit, but even having the thought of dropping someone like victor osimhen right now considering how his name alone will strike fear into the minds of our opponent is a terrible mistake in my own opinion, he might not be banging a whole lot of goals right now but his contribution upfront and his work rate is unmatched by any of our other striker's.

Their are few players that I think that shouldn't be in this current super eagles set up right now, and I can confidently say that victor osimhen is not one of those player, our captain amed Musa has past his prime, his best days are behind him, though his experience is greatly needed in the dressing room, but we have players that can offers that, which are trust ekong, victor osimhen, Alex iwobi, ndidi and the rest of other experience player, we need experience and quality in the team, not just quality, and victor osimhen offer that fighting spirit and leadership upfront.
You are absolutely right, no coach will have victor osimehn in his team and will not call him. In the world of current football I don’t think you will mention top 5 center forward and victor osimehn name won’t be mention. For 3 years now he has proven that he is world class No 9. The last Afcon we played we all saw what he did for us, the goals were not much there but the hard work, high press, commitment and fight was there. We need osimehn in this team, he is threat to every defender. We all see what he is doing in Turkey already this season, so he is very much needed in the super eagles team.


Another big point you made, the likes of Ahmed musa is not supposed to be called again, we have young players who deserves this chance, the likes of Gift Orban, he is doing well in the German league and for sure he deserves to be in this provisional list. Overall it a good list and I really hope this team can take us far.
