How many titles did Cavani, Higuain and Lavezzi combined win at Napoli?
How many trophies did Haaland win in comparison to Osimhen at youth level?
I argue based on facts not emotions, or personal preference.
How is this emotion? 😭

This is a fact.
Higuain literally broke the Serie A all time record at Napoli securing a 90 mil move to Juventus. Prime Higuain was one of the best strikers in the world.

Funny that people who haven't watched Thuram Inter or Serie A at all, and only know Inter play 5-3-2, have an opinion on how good Thuram is

BTW, they haven't watched Osimen as well.
All talk about their fantasized or idolized version of these players, not the real ones
 
How many titles with Napoli though?

Bro...you cant judge a player's performance with the titles he won, Vasquez won 3 cls titles in a row, is he now better than Alves??

Higuain was superior at Napoli, guy scored a lot of qualities goals and broke records, he did his job, not his fault that the other players couldnt perform like him

Was Vasquez the starting striker? Higuain failed at Napoli cos he literally ghosted in big games which ended proving decisive. The stats are there. That's the difference between him and Osimhen. He was top top quality no doubt, but just as we saw in the WC finals for Argentina against Germany, he was a serial choker on the biggest stages

I have to look up the stats he had vs big teams in Serie a but dont think he didnt score there vs the bigger team, he and Napoli were just unlucky that they had to play vs peak Juve, its same like Pool and City, Kloppo did a wonderful job and should have won 3-4 PL titles but Pep's City was a monster team and Argentina didnt score in 3x120 minutes, the whole offense choked, not only Higgy

The term 'failed at Napoli' sounds very very harsh and is Osimhen really that good ? Bro is playing in Super Lig atm, only god knows how good his level will be when he is back in a top league

He is perfectly capable of playing as a lone striker: he can hold up the ball, play with back to goal, combine link up, and of course score

Besides, the concept of the 'lone striker' does not really apply to Flickball. Our CF is always surrounded with other players
So he hasn't yet scored 20 goals in a league season in his entire career and mostly in a two strikers formation.

I'm not sure if it can prove he is better than Osimhen for Barca (even if he is slightly more technical).

I don't care if he will score 20 goals in a league season

Football is not as simplistic as you guys understand it.
You don't transfer a player and also add his goal tally from his previous seasons.

There are tons of ways in which Thuram may fit like a glove here.
He could make others score more even if he doesn't score himself.
It's all about the chemistry and the tactical fit.
