Honestly 50m seems very reasonable to buy back Iheanacho. I don't see why man city won't buy him back this summer. Even if it is to make a profit in the transfer market.



Does he adapt well as a lone striker? is he good with his passing? (man city tiki taka style). Or you just want to say something. There are a lot to be considered, have you ever thought of it this way, he has been adapting and learning from vardy and Leicester (with their yeye football style) all these years after leaving a team that built him from the academy with a different style. not true? then go and tell pep who he should sign "even if it's to make profit"

Can a second team player lead the frontline at city ?


For next season, he can. moreover, pep used him during the pre season and he showed class, so it's very possible

TheGoodJoe:


I don't think there is much Rodgers has done lately for Iheanacho's form but it is clear he has made Iheanacho more conscious with using of space.

Old Iheanacho used to like going into tight spaces and expecting his team mates to pass to him.

This makes it hard for his teammates to make the choice because of it being compact. Also even if he gets the ball, it will be too tight to finish.

This time, Nacho does more with spaces. Spots the gaps and attacks with Vernon.

You can see the gap for the crystal goal. His noticing of it and attacking it spurred Jonny Evans to go for the pass.

When he got the ball, he moved the ball to space before unleashing the shot.

Iheanacho also dropping deep repeatedly to win and distribute the ball also makes it difficult for defenders to pick him up. They are always running to track him, which works in his favor.




Good analysis, but don't forget that he's flourishing so well because of the partnership with vardy which makes it hard for defenders to pick any of them out easily.

I also rate Siasia over Kanu as far as the super eagles is concerned.

Let me give you a stat. Do you know that Kanu in 9 senior international tournaments has failed to score a single goal, zilch, zero, odo!

Siasia scored more goals for Nigeria than Kanu in lesser games.

No be everything you will rely on dstv or highlights. Do your research on a player to really appreciate what people are saying. Just because I wasn't born to see someone like Puskas play doesn't give me the right to say Van Persie was better for example.



Siasia had 4 goals more than kanu (16-12) in lesser games but Kanu did not only score, he gave crucial assists.

I grew up into a family that loved and cherished the game, Siasia was hardly praised by the older people in my fam. but I did not only watch kanu play, I also heard, and loved him. I was honest enough to say I didn't watch Siasia, but did you? or your research help you, and you dey use am school me. Lol you're funny you know. if you research make u dey rate Siasia ahead of papilo for SE then na rubbish you dey talk senior man.
no be oyibo give am "Papilo", and for the fact say him be house hold name, I no rate you and your research. well u said it's your opinion, but I dey vex sey u dey tell me about research, with DStv and highlight. I guess you got your accolades from the number of likes your comment got.
infact, your example did no corelate with the subject. Puskas and RVP? well puskas played in the era where football wasn't as serious, business and valuable as it is now (please correct me house), coupled with the organization of the league and games and also rules. They're even from different teams. from your assertion,you should rate Pele also ahead of Cristiano. no forget sey when Ronaldo beat Pele record, stats begin fly around. so that said, even as an award was named after puskas, you already know who I rate. RVP was so reliable that he featured for the Netherlands in 100+ caps. no come whine me next time about research again. I drop pen for here.

So you look Iheanacho finish and conclude that he can't do Gabriel Jesus' job That's ridiculous.

That aside, why wouldn't man city bring Iheanacho back to at least make a profit? Are they allergic to money

I didn't conclude sir, but come to think of it, why was Gabriel preferred in the first place? shey oyinbo dey find potential first for any young player before anything else. I mean, they're mates, started professionally in 2015. Gabriel has over 70 goals (as a lone striker o), while seniorman just became seniorman recently . and then, Aguero and Gabriel are not even regulars. which means pep can do without "iheanacho" or any striker and that will make u mad as a Nigerian seeing him warm all the benches in the epl. sho get?
they're not even allergic to money, but man city don't buy to sell later "if they rate you". be like sey na tradition to dry their players off their talents lol, so what profit are we talking sir?

Chuks? Iwobi? The Simons?
. I understand where you are coming from. Playing Nacho,Victor and Moffi together at the same time is kinda risky. The midfield need to be solid that is why I picked Ndidi , Etebo and Nwakali will be my first pick. Simon and Chuks will only come in if you're playing either Moffi or Victor on the wing. But as a two forwards with Nacho behind them, the FB will have to provide the width which may expose the defence. Now, with the two fullbacks overlapping, Ndidi will hold the midfield with Etebo providing defensive support while also contributing in attack. Nwakali will be the deeplying playmaker. I know two o the midfielders are far from the first eleven right now bit I couldn't think of any suitable personnel.

That would make it 2 midfielders if Iheanacho is to play as a 10(AM).
Ndidi as DM, Aribo as CM and Iwobi will be drafted to the right wing, Chukwueze playing his usual left wing while Osimhen and Moffi strikes.
Oh..I thought both will be playing as forwards.

Nwakali won't provide the final balls, the type that the strikers still need to feed on. This your formation no fit work we need an AM

I see someone apologizing to GoodJoe on Iheanacho soaking. Soaking what exactly ? All he needed was game time. A good run of games in a position he thrives in with a partner in Jamie Vardy and a manager who believes in him. All soaking of knowledge is not enough. That's what every player does in training. You still need game time.
