– If you are close to the starting eleven of the world’s best team, then you are in the national team squad for Norway. Simple math.
That is the verdict from TV 2’s national team expert Morten Langli. He has seen what he needs to see from Oscar Bobb. Now he is resoundingly clear that the 20-year-old must join Ståle Solbakken’s squad, which will be presented on Tuesday.
Pål André Helland gets the same answer to that calculation. Viaplay’s football expert has no doubts either.
– He has been involved in all the last matches and also started something for what is the world’s best football team. That should be a good enough answer if you ask me. There is no one else, with the exception of Erling and Martin, who comes close to competing at the same level, says Helland to VG.
The former RBK and LSK player has seen most of Bobb’s involvements this season.
– It is not just that he is involved, but he is dominant in the minutes he plays. It’s a so-called “no-brainer” for me, says Helland – who himself won six international caps for Norway in his time.
– Are we there that he should approach a starting place for Norway?
– Yes, it’s not far from that, says Helland.
VG’s national team commentator Knut Espen Svegaarden agrees completely.
– Oscar Bobb should be included this time, because he has proven over two or three matches at the very top level that he has the level inside. In addition, he has what the team lacks offensively: Great speed, says “Svea”.
Manchester City lost this weekend’s match against Wolverhampton. Bobb then came in for a break. After the match, he received questions from Viaplay about the upcoming national team selection.
– I haven’t thought about it. We’ll see what happens.
– That would have been fun?
– Yes of course.
Pep Guardiola has heaped praise on his Norwegian student recently. He explained the change during the last break as follows:
– I wanted more dynamics. Oscar is very good in tight spaces, with the creativity he has. It wasn’t about Nunes playing poorly. But I thought Oscar could give us something different.
