After a very fine performance against Norwich City in which he bagged a goal for himself, an English journo had this to say about Nigerian Kelechi Iheanacho.

Iheanacho begins to shine at Manchester City
Many Manchester City supporters have been keen to see more of Kelechi Iheanacho, if necessary at the expense of Wilfried Bony, and against Norwich the 19-year-old demonstrated he is a very genuine striking option for Manuel Pellegrini, either starting or from the bench. Strong and aware, Iheanacho appears to be an instinctive and precise finisher with a maturity that belies his youth, and what was also evident on Saturday was that his team-mates trust him with the ball. With Sergio Agüero almost back to his best, the emergence of Iheanacho as both a foil for the brilliant Argentinian and a goal-scorer in his own right could be crucial as City pursue success in four competitions. Richard Rae

Though an Arsenal fan, I cannot agree less.

I believe Iheanacho must have been an ardent disciple of the 'monkey post' street soccer that most soccer loving Nigerians must have participated in. You know in such games, you aim to score a goal even from the near impossible position.

Kelechi is quick, sharp and highly intelligent on the ball.
