After much deliberation, Osimhen is a firm ‘no’ from me. He is just too poor on the ball. Which is so unfortunate. Inside the penalty box, he’s the perfect striker for us. He also presses exceptionally well, and has the speed and power to stretch opponents. But his hold up/link play, manipulation of the ball are all at a dreadful standard - which, despite him being fast, will hinder the speed of our attacks on many occasions.
I think Kolo Muani is a better player than Osimhen having watched them both extensively this season. He’s even a better ‘finisher’, although not the better ‘goalscorer’. Osimhen is a better scorer because he has more natural striker instincts. He will score more goals because he will arrive in the position to score goals more frequently. And he is probably the best striker in the world in the air. But the art of actually beating the keeper with a shot, I think his technique is average.
Despite my reservations with Harold, I’d take Kane ahead of Osimhen. He has so much more quality, although a handful of major caused for concern. Everything considered, RKM is my guy and I hope we get him.
