Introduction
Everton striker Victor Anichebe according to him has criticized Victor Osimhen who has also come out in the open to insult former Super Eagles coach Finidi George.
Osimhen's Absence
Osimhen is a young and promising Nigerian football forward; however, he could not play in the two 2026 FIFA World Cup qualify matches against South Africa and Benin Republic due to an injury.
Anichebe's Perspective
“This is something Nigeria really lacks still; we just love negativity and drama. I believe VO was wrong to come out publicly. I assure you he understands this now but as a man in the heat of the moment this could have been handled differently in private anyway even though I fully comprehend that there is nobody who wished to besmirch the image and commitment that VO has tried to build up so carefully. ”“Such criticisms as these create unwarranted hostility and hamper collective goals of the team: Targets that are so dear in this level of soccer; goals which need full concentratives and group synergy; objectives that can hardly be realized with Osimhen’s melodramatic behaviors that almost always cause tensions between him and George. Advanced action which would have been ideal for the player to undertake would have been attempting to take his concerns to the coach in private form, not by hulfing and swearing which just tend to harm the spirit of the team.
