What's your take on the quality of the Super Eagles if Victor Osimhen isn't playing? A team that depends on a single player will always be inconsistent. The most troubling part of this is that Victor is injury-prone. His aggressive nature of play exposes him to injuries, and without him, the Super Eagles are totally blunt in the attack. This situation is not about key players being disappointed, the reality is that Africa has many teams that are better than the Nigerian side.
I don't think the team is entirely reliant on him because I've seen us perform even on days he was injured. Even if he doesn't play, he contributes to the team on and off the pitch and I'm not perturbed if he doesn't end up playing. The team with this team is that, the day they're going to win, you'd just know. Look at how Lookman stepped up.
And yes, we're not the best team but there are sometimes we have individual players than can do some individual brilliance from time to time.
