I actually made this comparison in another thread. He's like Nunez without the donkey moments, and probably a bit better aerially but not quite as much raw paceDarwin Nuñez who can finish

Napoli spent 80 million on him, 100 million would be the bare minimum they'd ask forDon't think it's wise to blow £100m on platers anymore, not unless they're a young Mbappe level talent. Such big transfers fail more often than not
There is no such thing as a "dead cert". We were very excited by Di Maria in 2014 and Sanchez in 2018...Napoli spent 80 million on him, 100 million would be the bare minimum they'd ask for
I wouldn't go anywhere near a 100 mill plus signing again unless it's a dead cert that the player would deliver and Osimhen certainty doesn't fit the billing

So he is probably worth what Liverpool paid for Nunez because I am sure they weren't expecting the donkey moments.I actually made this comparison in another thread. He's like Nunez without the donkey moments, and probably a bit better aerially but not quite as much raw pace
Yeah I think the fee is around 80-100. It's not helping that Napoli is unreal this year, they won't want to sell him even more now.So he is probably worth what Liverpool paid for Nunez because I am sure they weren't expecting the donkey moments.
Is he a better player than Yakubu?Agreed, but I do think he's improved his link up play to acceptable standards and I think he's probably the biggest aerial threat in football currently which is a huge bonus for a player that's not going to wow you with technicality.
I'd be excited but a bit nervous, but I think he's probably the overall best option out there as far as "big names" go for strikers.
They've got Nkunku already signed, haven't they?I’m guessing Chelsea will inevitably go for him along with us in the summer, and the other team getting Kane
yeah but he's more of a second striker or winger I would say, and although he can play as the main striker I doubt Chelsea signed him for that.. and in the PL it seems even less likely that's where he'll be utilisedThey've got Nkunku already signed, haven't they?
I didnt find much of those exciting to be fair. They looked like normal goals.There is no such thing as a "dead cert". We were very excited by Di Maria in 2014 and Sanchez in 2018...
But Osimhen is the only striker out there, not called Mbappé or Haaland, that is genuinely worth 100M.
The goals he is capable of scoring are so exciting...

Terrible defending to be fair. He scores a lot of goals on the back of mistakes. He also misses complete sitters, but I guess every striker does that. I've been watching some Napoli matches because he's been linked with us, and I'm not completely convinced.There is no such thing as a "dead cert". We were very excited by Di Maria in 2014 and Sanchez in 2018...

The first goal is nothing normal. The pace and strength he shows to get passed Chris Smalling who is known to be a great 1v defender, then the finish on the volley at a tight angle is fantastic.I didnt find much of those exciting to be fair. They looked like normal goals.
Young Martial was on same level with young Mbappe ...Don't think it's wise to blow £100m on platers anymore, not unless they're a young Mbappe level talent. Such big transfers fail more often than not
He really wasn't.Young Martial was on same level with young Mbappe ...
Where his world cup?

And it begins...
Mudryk price is reasoning for his price tag - Chelsea fecking it up for all of us.
They likely won't have champions league to offer.If Chelsea get involved it’ll be tricky. Will need him to choose us.
Except the reason for that high price tagwas apparently due to the Antony price tag, so.....Mudryk price is reasoning for his price tag - Chelsea fecking it up for all of us.
Wasn't it reported that one of the reasons Oshimen chose Napoli over us was because he didn't want to compete with Igalo?
Seems like United is really big in Nigeria, despite us really never having any Nigerian players? Besides Igalo and some youngsters, Shola?, I can't think of any Nigerian players that have played for us.He is supposed to be a United fan isn’t he?
Rashford isn’t technically amazing either - we have quite a few players who are technically superior. Still Marcus scores the most goals (and is joint second in assists)Find it hard to justify splashing big bucks on anyone that isn’t technically amazing.
Won’t matter if they offer more to Napoli and we aren’t willing to match.They likely won't have champions league to offer.
United, Chelsea, Arsenal, Madrid and Barcelona are big in Nigeria. Nigerians see the EPL as the biggest league, it is widely watched here. Its similar to a Brazilian footballer dream of playing for one of the Spanish duo.Wasn't it reported that one of the reasons Oshimen chose Napoli over us was because he didn't want to compete with Igalo?
We were one of the favorites to get him when he left Lille:

It will matter… If the player decides he wants to join United then Napoli will have to accept the offer, as long as it’s not a huge difference.Won’t matter if they offer more to Napoli and we aren’t willing to match.
I hate journalists. How can anyone possibly have had it said or inferred to them that an executive at Napoli has said "well look at what mudryk just went for". It's all made up speculative bullshit.

You can probably add the Nunez fee to the mix as well.Except the reason for that high price tagwas apparently due to the Antony price tag, so.....
Nah, he's not got the technical skills. He's closer to Lukaku, a big miss for me.There is no such thing as a "dead cert". We were very excited by Di Maria in 2014 and Sanchez in 2018...
