Like I said, Osimhen is the second greatest player to wear the Napoli shirt, after Maradona. And as Balotelli told him, "in 50 yeas, you will know what you have done for Naples."

But to the issue, this tells you everything you need to know about Cavani and Osimhen, because Higuain was absolutely unbelievable at Napoli. He was a monster! Cavani and Higuain have never scored more than 30 league goals for Napoli. There was a season Higuain scored 36!!! :lol:

No love for Higuain :rotf: But i'm guessing that's mainly due to his move to Juve

Nah, its mainly due to the fact that Cavani and Osimhen were/are absolutely unplayable and the real fans who watch them in-person know the level.

We discussed it here last year. Go to Naples and tell them you are a Nigerian and they will treat you like a king. I dont think Nigerians realize how much Osimhen is worshiped in Naples.

Who cares about Napoli? I used to can't wait to watch their matches and now I don't care if they're on or not. The owner fired Spalletti because he's a cheapskate and an egomaniac. In fact both men have huge egos and one had to make room for the others.
