Dashen Football pundit Miguel John Obi says. He is not a big fan of new Chelsea striker Liam Delap and would rather invest in Napoli’s Victor Osimhen if he wants a genuine striker.
Delap, a £30m signing from Ipswich , made his first appearance of the season in the 2-0 Club World Cup win over LA FC. With an assist on Tuesday สมัคร UFABET
But there are still questions about whether a player who was once pushed into the first-team by Man City. And who has moved from a relegation-threatened club is good enough for the Blues?
One of the people who raised the question was the team’s former midfielder. Obi Mikel, who suggested that the team should go for a ready-made player like Osimhen, who has a track record of 20 goals per season.
The player who has made more than 200 appearances for Chelsea said :
“We need someone who can come in. And score goals convert chances that come in and score goals.”
“To be honest, Delap is not the one the fans want. We all know who they want.”
“The fans wanted Victor Osimhen to join the event. But he refused to come.”
“In the end, the club decided to end it. Delap, who is still young and strong, will gradually improve.”
“I hope I can get the engine started. When the time comes, I can eliminate my doubts.”
“I would like to send my encouragement to him, hoping that he will be successful with this club and I think he can.”
“The way he runs and makes the runs we saw last night, cutting through the defenders, I think he’s someone who can finish off the chances his teammates create.”
“But don’t forget that we still have Nicholas Jackson – I still see him as a key player.”
“He just needs to improve his finishing. I think he’ll get a head start at the start of the season.”
“If during the season, if he doesn’t shoot as targeted, then Delap will have a chance.”
“In addition to performance in the competition for the position, taking good care of yourself is also important.”
Osimhen in the 2024-25 season went to play for Galatasaray on loan, scoring 37 goals , 8 assists from 41 matches in all competitions. More than Jackson (13 goals ) and Delap (12 goals ) combined.
