Like Amine I feel an essential factor in any modern scouting report is an injury risk assessment. I appreciate that someone that is good at understanding the potential value of a player from a playing pov is not necessarily skilled to comment on injury risk but when it comes to what you pay its a big thing. Thanks for the report. I have sine Osminhem play last season and liked watching him. Not much seen this season.

Completely agree Dave, I am FAR from a medical expert which is why I refrained from mentioning it, it is well documented the injuries Osimhen has had and the severity of them.

I worry that we see him as a great option, but he plays in a significantly different league to the Premier League and I wonder whether he will fit in. Personally I would come out in the current environment and where we sit in our evolution go with Toney. It’s acknowledges that over the next two or so years. We may need to still be looking for the ultimate player for our number nine position.

Agree Craig, we have been scarred so many times with plays from other leagues that have flopped, especially strikers.

I'd play safe get Toney In January.

Then go all out in the Summer for Oshiman.

Nkunku, Toney & Oshiman would be real fire power.

Gives us real options and covers us for the inevitable injuries.

We could easily offset the fee for Oshiman by selling Broja & Mondueke.

Agree with Toney in January, Darren. I would be interested to see what other strikers emerge and are available in the summer.

I personally rate Broja so highly, once he overcomes injury doubts he will be incredible!

Completely agree Amine, as mentioned above I refrained from mentioning injuries as it is far from my knowledge and fairly well documented where Osimhen has suffered.
