These injuries could really sink Kelechi's career. Young as he is and he's so injury-prone, reminds me of Anderson. Heard these injuries can be prevented with good dieting. Meanwhile, Martial dey score goals every game.

The youngster is a big doubt for the Citizen’s trip to the White Hart Lane for Saturday’s English topflight clash, as revealed by manager PellegriniKelechi Iheanacho is doubtful for Manchester City’s clash against Tottenham Hotspur at the White Hart Lane owing to injury, according to manager Manuel Pellegrini.
The Nigeria youth international did not travel with the Citizens for Tuesday’s Capital One fixture against Sunderland, where they triumphed 4-1.
David Silva, Samir Nasri, Fabian Delph, Pablo Zabaleta, Vincent Kompany, Eliaquim Mangala, Gael Clichy and Wilfried Bony were not picked too owing to injury.
And to the Manchester City boss have now confirmed that Iheanacho face fitness battles ahead Saturday’s fixture at Spurs.
"I always enjoy to see good players,” said Pellegrini “I think it is also important for our team because we had eight players injured for this game that we cannot use: (David) Silva, (Samir) Nasri, (Fabian) Delph, (Pablo) Zabaleta, (Vincent) Kompany, (Eliaquim) Mangala, (Wilfried) Bony and Kelechi (Iheanacho).
"It is an important number of players that we couldn't use. That's why it was important to win the game and important to win in the way we played.”
Question marks now remain over of what part - if any - Iheanacho will play in Saturday's game against Tottenham.
Manchester City lead the English topflight log with 15 points from six games.

When I think of players like Alexander Pato, I become concerned with the use of substances as creatine, L-glutamine etc as ergogenic aids by sports men. This is perhaps Nacho's fourth injury since his enlisting into MCFc. Hope they give him special care.
I remember the pressure on Pato to gain weight and muscle mass when he was just about 17... Of course it was important he does so as he was playing in the serie-A. Who knows what Milan did with him?? .. While I not insuating Milan used growth enhancing hormones or creatine etcetera, I do strongly feel that their use in teenagers could have long term negative effects. I recently have begun to look into their effect on injury susceptibility and see glimpses of a positive correlation.

Thus, I do strongly recommend that clubs and trainers refrain from the act of loading young athletes with "supplement" .
They could freely use them on adults as they desire.
Pato's strong affinity for injuries remain a warning signal for trainers not to put extreme pressure on young athletes or mess with their biology but let nature and good nutrition take the lead until they turn full adults by age 21

TheSuperNerd:
So what exactly are you driving at? Nacho feeding off ergogenics and steroid supplements in bulks? Come on, give the kid a break will ya........

Nah... Thats way to far.. @ the bolded.

Sir Thesupernerd ... Please, I wasn't referring in particular to Nacho.. I was speaking in broad terms about teenage young talents... I meant that it could be a practice for trainers to innocuously load young athletes with supplements with the thinking it will help attain or maintain optimum health.

But I am of the view such practice could do much harm in the medium and long term.
I am especially against the use of creatine and glutamine in teenagers. These protein are not bad in themselves neither are they illegal. They are widely in use in the sport world.

I think you went overboard with the mention of steroids...
My focus is on will I say nutritional supplements.. As a med I believe you surely should get the thrust my post.
I want better handling of young alents... Sometimes popular practices may not be so healthy afterall...

Am considering embarking on a full scale research into these popular sports supplements if I receive approval for It.

TheGoodJoe:


Do you know Bony was on the bench because of Dzeko. Dzeko was top pick along Aguero because Pellegrini mostly played a 4-4-2 system. Dzeko wanted to leave and Pellegrini let him go. Without Iheanacho in the club, Pellegrini would never let Dzeko leave.

BascoVanVeli:
I guess Iheanacho's biggest fault is that he only owns one passport because I can't believe Alex Iwobi gets a call up before him or even Success and Awoniyi for that matter.

safarigirl:
the boy is even injured now, so they couldn't call him up if they wanted to. And like TheSuperNerd said, Iheanacho isn't in danger of being snatched, so whenever the coaches are ready, whether this year or in 2 years, he'll still be available, do you think England would be all over Ibe and Ali if they were fully British? You don't show your ace card until you've acquired those you need, but don't have. You should never rush greatness

BascoVanVeli:


Well he might be injured now but he wasn't when we played Tanzania. Infact Iheanacho should have been playing since last year especially after the pre-season he had. You say wait and be patient but so did Brasil in inviting Diego Costa and now he plays for Spain. That could happen to us, Iheanacho could shun Nigeria focus on his club and wait for his British passport which won't take so long if he performs on the field and shows intent in representing them.
What annoys me is Oliseh saying he should play for the U-23 but at the same time inviting Iwobi who hasn't played a premier league minute yet.
Btw Ali and Ibe are not on the English senior team raider yet the coach has stated that he is not going to give call up's just to make them nationals. Also a player can be called up while injured there is nothing against Iheanacho showing up getting a check up and at least learning the system a little.

it will take Iheanacho 10 years to become a British citizen, it won't take the NFF ten years to hand Kelechi a call-up and I doubt Britain expresses interests to snag anyone over 25. Your mind is going too far. I want Kelechi to remain in City and settle there without the national team giving him grief like you all have given Mikel. We know how Nigerians are, how petty you all can be, so allow the boy enjoy this time pleasing just City fans before putting the hopes of 170 million people on his small shoulders. Left to me, nobody will disturb Kelechi till he's 21

TheGoodJoe:
Welcome back young star Obinna Nwobodo. The football game was not the same without you. Keep training and get back to full fitness.

Nacho play for England?? Come on, we shouldn't even be discussing this.............. Hahahaha........ Please Sir, Quell your fears and relax. Like I said, Nacho is just too good to be ignored for long.


Gosh!!!! Where are you going with this? ......... Hahaha........ *smiles*

BascoVanVeli:



Nobody is putting hopes of anyone on Iheanacho I simply say give the boy his just due. I ask, are the people being called better? Do they play for bigger clubs?
You don't sit and wait until you feel he can handle the pressure because if he can't now he never will, that ability is something you are either born with it or you're not. maybe Mikel never had it that's not necessarily a bad thing Mikel is still our best midfield player people can complain that doesn't take away from the player's quality, they even hated on Messi in Argentina his own Grandfather said he no try.
Neymar plays better for his country than Messi because he spent more time with his National team. Brasil has been built around Neymar since he was a boy at Santos even Pele was involved in his growth. Neymar's success is a tribute to the whole Brazilian Football federation and that is what im saying we have to be more proactive.
This is why around the world in some universities you see children in class rooms who are advanced and special you don't hold such a child back because the question becomes can they do the same as the other students in the class?

BascoVanVeli:


lol i'm sorry but i have a basis for my fears, I recently read an article on Rafinha who has already played for Brasil but now he is getting his German citizenship trying to join the world champions. He just recently turned down a call from Brasil something which I never knew could happen till Diego Costa blew my mind.

joseph1013:
I'm perplexed at the way Success continues to be snubbed. Iwobi is not tested and based on Oliseh's conditions, he is not supposed to be in the Eagles. Success has been playing first team football in the best league in the World since last season, yet both Siasia and Oliseh have continued to ignore him. It's unbelievable!
