If you cant make Englands squad you aint better than Osimhen. Sorry.
Yeah, let's forget Southgate doesn't have his favorites already and isn't necessarily down to how good you are...Maguire isn't better than Tomori, but he's a mainstay player for Southgate...plus England is STACKED in attack at the moment. You be my guy but your assertion is flawed!
Every top 15 team is stacked in attack, it’s no excuse. Solanke wouldn’t even make the Danish team let alone England.

Im talking about the strikers position. Apart from Kane and maaaybe Ivan Toney the rest are average. If Solanke cant break thru the Queens army, he isnt good enough to be starting over Osimhen for Nigeria. He is a good squad player at best IMHO when everybody is healthy.
So we're going to ignore his impressive stats in a league that is more competitive than the Seria A where Osimhen plays? what then is a better yardstick to use at this point? Also we both know international football can be very harsh, there are several players we know that are not good enough to play in the SE, yet keep getting picked over better players who have never gotten a chance (no point mentioning names)...

Mr. Adwoa, you want Yujam to catch you here again and discipline you? :lol: :lol: Solanke can "score on the moon," if he likes; like I told TxJ, he will NEVER smell the England team. Okay, pumpkin? :lol:

What was Soanke's stats last season when Osimhen was dunking on Seria A teams? This season osimhen was injured for chunks of the season then went off to play in the Afcon. This is actually Solanke's best season. B4 that he was not that remarkable. Dude only score like 6 goals last season. He is not on Osimhens level. If he wants to play for Nigeria fine but if Osimhen is fit he is chopping bench. Also like i keep saying, asides from Kane England strikers are pretty average so if Solanke is struggling to get in then how is he better than Osimhen that will walk into most NTs ?? Please show Osi some respect biko. Solanke wishes he was Osimhen.

Bro, there are some arguments you shouldnt even debase yourself to have, so you do not disrespect a person in the argument and disrespect yourself.

Just imagine someone comparing Mbappe to Neil Maupay. :lol: :lol: :lol: Do you think Mbappe's fans will get into a discussion with such a person or they will burst out laughing? :lol: :lol:

He is good but he is behind Osimhen, you Bushboy wannabe. Osimhen has earned his "darling boy" status.
I don't rate one season wonders, do it for 2 or 3 seasons then nobody can question your quality...
Given your record here, anyone that constantly agrees with you should be worried. The Osimhen hype is backed by his numbers for club and country even before last season. I remember your soul mate bushboy running away when I pointed out those numbers when he was weeping about Osimhen's move to Napoli

Hi TxJ

Have you seen the England list? Can you confirm whether The graduate of The FA's Elite Talent Program has been selected for the Euros? :D

Solanke, if allegiance pledged, walks into the squad and is handed an agbada with enough length in the sleeve to go full alhaji. Took some time to find his groove, definitely a beneficiary of Iraola's more direct approach. Most of all, had a good innings in the league of leagues, home of the bravest, the maker of men, The Championship. Raw and wriggling. Blood and thunder. Shango, Ikenga. Britannia, The Hawthorns, Ewood Park, Elland Road, The New Den/Millwall. Been there. Done it. Dust him off, dress him up and throw him in.

Solanke CANNOT make the Nigerian squad. Even on his best day! You think its by accent and foreign birth they use to make the SE? :lol: The same way he failed to make the English squad - a team that has less competition for strikers, and he failed there!

You do have an issue with race….a mental one…

Have you been a victim of racism? If so, I empathise but don’t let it dictate everything you do.

England has…Kane and Watkins to match Osimhen and Boniface…..

After that Toney, Rashford, Bowen….are better than Moffi, Onuachu and Dressers….Maybe on Par with Awoniyi (on his day)

Foden…. Clearly better than Iheanacho

Solanke is better NOW than Onuachu, Dressers and Iheanacho - if you cannot see that then am sorry….

The issue he will have is that he plays similar role to Osimhen and Boniface and they are miles ahead of him…

Please name three players better than Solanke on the SE forward setup currently? This is the same rubbish you people said about Ademola Lookman a few years ago.... he is the best player in the SE today!

Dude had like 3 goals disallowed at the AFCON. Top scorer in Seia A last season, 3rd top scorer this season, APOY, Cmon now. What has Solanke done to even be mentioned in the same breath? I dont mind Solanke getting a callup if he wants to rep Naija but he aint better than VO9. Not even close. If he was that good, Southgate would have capped him. England have average strikers and yet they still dont want him. Abegi. Show VO some respect.

You do have an issue with race….a mental one…
Solanke is black.

As for the rest of your drivel, go and brush your rotten decayed mouth! I am not interested in anything you have to say-- you colonizer! Your comments are irrelevant. This is no longer the 1800s, okay?
If only you had worked harder and been more intelligent the white man would not have fired you from your affirmative action lawyer position. :woot: :laugh: It has been over a decade of you grinding it out with Uber. :mrgreen: No need to be bitter and full of hatred against white people. :lol:

Solanke needs to do what that guy at Monaco did , he currently plays for the USA . Solanke cannot , cannot get into our squad as a striker. He isn't better than any of our current number 9s, be it Moffi, Awo, Boni, Our Osimhen , Orban, Onuachu etc . Some of yall need to get real
