I mean hes losing to Tefera and Wightman in his best discipline. He also lost to Timothy before that. He's been on a losing streak ever since the olympics. It's not farfetched at all to say hes peaked.
He might pull off a couple more 3:28s here and there but i think thats it for Yakob.
You are delusional HE JUST WON THE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS 2 gold medals in 2 years. Y’all’s opinions are insane.

Jakob has already conceded that the 1500 isn't his best event. The 5,000 is. Jakob beat every single challenger the world could throw at him. Your deliberate shortsightedness knows no bounds.
Also when I assert that Jakob has peaked this year remember that Jacob just did something very special. He won a WC Silver at 1500 and WC Gold at 5000. It is a tremendous achievement. So even if he runs marginally faster he is extremely unlikely to fare as well in WC or Olympics. It was a great meet for him and likely his peak year all around.

Jakob may run marginally faster so he could end up with 3:27, 7:24, 12:40 but this is Jakob at his ceiling this year. Jakob may even run 26:30 but he will never be better than this year. Jakob will be a medal contender for a few more years and then that will be it. He started so young that he will peak young. Many Africans have done the same. Still a great running career. Most will disagree with me and they will be wrong.
Go home devastated Osker
