safarigirl:
some days ago, I asked what was going on with Enyeama of recent and if he had moved to Angers and started playing, nobody responded, not even you. I would expect that you would be monitoring the player you stand on, but you sef, you don't know what is going on as regards him

We have just a week left in January and nothing solid has been seen on Enyeama's part, so technically, you stand on nothing

have you considered the possibility that Enyeama is the reason why we have 6 friendlies lined up?

Icon4s:
Ezenwa is about the most consistent goalie in the league . He has been in the national team set up for quite a while now working under Keshi, Oliseh, Salisu and then Rohr and has gotten several exposures both in the continent and outside the continent.

This is a major edge he has over all other goalies in the NPFL.
I have always stated that goalkeepers selection is a lot more complex that outfield players selection.

There are a lot to the selection criteria.

Ezenwa? I am sorry but I disagree. He wasn't even first choice last season so how exactly was he consistent? I am sure you know consistency means performing at the top level constantly? How many times has Ezenwa finished as the best GK? If not for the gwg I am not sure Ezenwa's name was known anywhere, even some of his teammates probably didn't even know him. I know Ajiboye has performed for 3seasons straight, Femi Thomas(despite his rare mess-ups) has been considerably good for more than 3 seasons

Humility017:
Lol...my brother...I perfectly believe all you wrote but my brother somehow will still doubt it.

I remember one kano pillars match...I watched they were loosing a goal nil @ sani abacha staduim when one of the specatators I supposed or FA official entered into the pitch slapped the ref and asked him to award a penalty...which he did even though there was no serious offense...that was how they equalised...the goal deficits....

the Nigeria league need serious overhaul I don't even support using the police for securities..they've been cases where the police have been held culpable...some police officials are even fans of some of this home teams and as such turn a blind eye to this atrocities...more still the northerners here.....don't fear the police..at all...the only force officials they tend to have reverence for...is the military...
so the military should be used for securities....the LMC should enter into an agreement wit the military...like sponsorship agreement .

the ideas are there but they don't want to implement them. I am certain they can create a division out of the nigerian police that will be tasked with matchday security but who wants to do the right thing?

Iwobi! Ndidi just had a shot blocked too. Nice day

Icon4s:
Do they transmit digital signals from NTA Asaba?

that answer isn't straight. They have the equipment but lack the necessary manpower. So they can oh but they don't

somehow:
Old story abi or recent? If recent, which northern club because most of them always get served once reported.

it hasn't been exactly old, 2015/2016 season precisely

goldfish80:
Could their problem be lack of facilities? Recall their broadcast equipment was massively upgraded in 2009 for the broadcast of the U17 WC.
I doubt they have auctioned off those OBB vans.

they have the facilities. When I visited the NTA office at Asaba(?), just somewhere in Delta I was genuinely shocked. They had better broadcast equipments than Channels TV for example but I guess we all know who the boss is. The problem is putting square pegs in round holes. Some of their workers have been handling same positions for 50years straight without any form of improvement through forums, workshops or all what not. It's just the same issue destroying the civil service as a whole

tbaba1234:
Violence in Nigeria football has happened everywhere, it is not peculiar to one region.

I know that, I am just giving an instance that I am familiar with.

somehow:
Never will I forget the tales one of the vet ref told us in lecture some years ago about what happened in Kano pre 2000s lol..

I never really understood this until two weeks ago when one of the physiotherapists was telling us why he left Dolphins. For security reasons I'd rather not mention the northern teams they were playing against and they were winning 2-0, early in the second half, the crowd didn't do much, they just sat still but if you look through the crowd you'd notice a quick circulation of some items, they didn't take it serious initially that was until around the 80mins when the fans started exposing the said items(he called them sickles used in harvesting rice ). The news was immediately circulated to the ref but he said he was not going to bulge but call the match down the middle, 88mins on the clock and they had already chased away the few visiting fans and that was when my friend started thinking about his young wife and his kid and even the away team started begging the ref to award penalties to the home team

somehow:
Is this statement fact base or the usual rhetorics when it comes to the NPFL?

how many away teams have been awarded penalties in the NPFL's history infact

jihday:
lol, make una leave NPFL o, at least the NRA are committed to better performance

it isn't really about them. Ok let's take for example you have heard stories about jihads(abeg no vex oo ) and you are officiating a match in the north, Kano Pillars are losing at home and you see a random northerner bringing out this curved knife and smiling at you with broken teeth, baba I will award two spotkicks in a minute sef. I think security checks should be beefed up at the stadiums, atleast if the officials can be safe inside the stadium that would be a wonderful development.

somehow:
Yesterday, 3 PKs were awarded in the match between Getafe vs At Bilbao.

Ended 2:2

even the away team got their own spotkick. If it was in our local league, Getafe would have gotten all 3 pks

safarigirl:
if he modified it, will Supernerd also modify when he quoted that same comment?

You cannot delete yourbmistakes on the internet, own it, apologise and move on, there is absolutely no need to modify anything. Look at it as it would have been if you had spoken the words out in person, can you modify what you say to someone? No, you can't

You can apologise for your mistakes, but don't erase them because they are part of your learning curve. All the ones wey I don talk for this thread, I don modify am?

I guess you are right, thanks a lot for the advice, you aren't so bad afterall

tbaba1234:
Enough with the achievement measuring contest. Whatever you think, you have done in your life, several people have done more. You will find people who have done far more with their lives on this thread and do not even mention the half of it. This thread is for football and not for bragging about your academic or professional achievements.

Humility and respect for each other goes a long way and will help you build lifetime connections. You could need each other someday in the future, it is a small world. Please, sheath your swords. We all view life from different prisms. Respecting each others viewpoints regardless of how you feel about it, is important.

I have heard what you said and I apologise for such comments. I have come to realise that we have consultants here and yet they don't brag about it, so I apologise and will duly modify the above comment. I would also like it if you would delete the comment too

Mujtahida:
Mickael2 come here to this backyard abeg my brother. I want to implore you for the sake of sanity on the thread to totally ignore nerds posts even if he mentions or quotes your post in a friendly way. At least ignore it for a very long time if you cannot do so totally. I have seen that there's no way two of you can interact without acrimony. It's always there below the surface and just a little heat and it boils up to the surface and spills over into the whole thread. I feel it's your way to be critical. You can't help it. We can't force you to change even though many including yours truly feels the bite of your post but then we need it(it can't all be sweetness all the time). I feel if you bow to pressure and start being nice the thread will miss something vital although it would be great if you learn to drop encouragements at the end of your criticisms.

So I feel the best thing is for you to just keep a straight face as far as his posts and mentions are concerned. Because I know where this is possibly leading to. Let's not have a repeat of what transpired before at least let it not be between you and him because once the mudslinging and shades start, some monikers will want to intervene. Some will do it indelicately, some will take sides, some will Stoke the fires. Before you know it accusations and Counter accusations will start flying everywhere taking up precious space. No ooo. That's no good.

I like the two of you but I feel you will listen to me if I talk to you as man to a man. I beg you as a brother who you have never met and will perhaps never meet. I trust you can find enough people to interact with on the thread if you decide to take my suggestion.
We don't keep malice on the thread. So perhaps you can inform others that for the sake of sanity you'd be avoiding his posts (you might not do this, I'm only just suggesting). Please read this and think about it. Then let me know here that you have read it by quoting me. Then we can both delete our conversation here. Cheers

why are you talking like this? Have I replied any of his comments since? Just go back and read the comments. Me I don't have time for stuffs like that.
I like this your backyard though . I have heard what you said and I will implement it to the fullest

Mujtahida:
Jos pepper dey cause purging ooo. But on a serious note I don't even fear for Ndidi as such. He appears very rooted. But for the other players I no trust them especially.... ( you know who). With women ehn things can be very unpredictable: they can either help the players to outdo themselves and posts an excellent performance or they destroy everything. Which will it be? Just leave them out jeje. Na one month (and we no go reach sef) after one month Utazi go jump enter pepper soup back.

Na Iwobi abi?

DrKlever:
lol you guys should stop the attacks. it's becoming childish. th two of you!

the thing is annoying too. I don't know why everyone has decided to linger on the issue. He is talking about me, y'all should let him be, hey! It's his internet device and he can type what he wants. Now I understand Kog45, nobody should call him to order, a word is enough for the wise which does not seem to be applicable to him so we just move on. Enough of this issue

Mujtahida:
TheSuperNerd kindly go back to your posts from new year day till before the bust up on Iheanacho. You were expansive. Don't fold up now, don't Bro. We are family here ooo, we are. Beyond our respective viewpoints our humanity is stands foremost. I have often repeated this point to komekn telling him to remember as he criticizes that Iheanacho is a human being. You too, remember the humanity of komekn and Mickael2. I implore you

I swear you have time. Do you know why nairaland is called a faceless forum? Because people claim to be what they are not. He has shown a total lack of psychological understanding, he has failed to understand that people set their bar at their own level. There is a reason why Pele or Maradona would never believe that Messi is the best, because they believe they have done better. I don't need to come and start shouting that I had distinctions in BCH, Anat, Pathology, Medicine and surgery before a proper psychologist understands that I don't celebrate minor things because they don't come off as any achievement to me. I would probably challenge him to present his medical certificate or license but then he wouldn't be able to. If I were to ask him what is the two-finger job he probably wouldn't know so what's the point. Just let it go and we move on.

Mujtahida:
Bros, I've never been taken in by that excessive adulation that calls Kelechi world class. I see him as a good player. Don't let it hurt your soul when you see such words cos I sense that you react most times to it and end up painting Kc blacker than he is.

that may be true. I am just glad you saw it

safarigirl:
you are focusing on the goals and the opposition

Kelechi did not do anything out of the ordinary scoring two goals, like many have already mentioned, scoring goals is what he does, so, if you think we are praising his brace, you are wrong.

We are praising an overall general improvement in his play. Has anyone here ever complained that Kelechi does not score? No! That has never been the bone of contention

Our recent complaints have had to do with his FIRST TOUCH, that was what many were most concerned about and that is what majority were looking out for against Fleetwood and people are excited because his first touch improved A LOT.

Watching the highlights of that game, do you know what I kept rewinding to see? His first touch for the first goal he scored, I did not care so much for the goal, but that first touch and every commentator in whichever highlight you played said the same thing "Good first touch" "Great first touch"..... They noticed the first touch.


So, brother, stop harping on the fact that he scored two goals against lowly Fleetwood and their mediocre defenders, for, we are not celebrating the goals as nuch as we are celebrating the first touch.


BTW, I don't know about World Class, but virtually everyone agrees that Kelechi has CLASS

you should probably use 'I' and not 'we' because majority of these guys don't even know this part of what you just said.


If this is your view of the entire issue then of course I agree he has improved there. I can remember the game against Egypt his first touch wasn't bad so that means he has it in him. Now at the risk of being called a pessimist let me ask you a question, you know people have on days? Where everything they do they excel. So do you see why I asked for consistency? We already know he used to have a good touch, the ability is inside there just like goldfish80 pointed out that he can strike the ball way since time immemorial. So is it bad for me to call for caution? If he can replicate the same first touch for 3 matchdays I promise to publish Iheanacho's biography and records and try as much as I can to push it to front page.


consistency is the key. Ronaldinho(skill for skill) was probably 10times better than Pele but that counts for nothing because he wasn't consistent

safarigirl:
jeez! You are such a bitter person.

Why is it paining you this much that people are celebrating the little success of a boy you and your cohorts have been bringing down over the last weeks? You have had free reign over this thread, attacking the boy for not playing well, and just because a few people decided to praise him for a good performance, you are crying like a baby whose sweet was snatched.

If you cannot admit that he has improved (and he has, his first touch did not magically improve because he is playing against Fleetwood), then just face your front without rearing this your ugly envious head.

It is difficult to refrain from personal attacks with the likes of you because it is obvious your attacks on Kelechi are more personal than objective.


Stop hating on small boys, hating on people drains you emotionally and physically.

there is something you need to understand here.

Ok let's use an example, last two seasons Ademola Lookman was unknown, now if he was the one that scored two goals against Fleetwood the drinks would have been on me, because we didn't exactly know what he was capable of. On the other hand, this is someone who has played a whole lot better for Mancity and we know what he can do(if I didnt know what he can do I wouldn't advocate for his inclusion as our first choice striker ahead of Ighalo come the world cup). We have seen him score winners against ManU and similar stuffs, then he stopped and started declining. We all know he is way way better than Fleetwood, probably all their players combined wouldn't be worth more than 10million, on the other hand Iheanacho was the most expensive striker bought by any team currently outside the top 8 or something like that, for someone commanding that fee I am not sure two goals against Fleetwood should really linger for more than an hour in his or anybody's head. If you still don't get my point then we can agree to disagree

safarigirl:
I never used a harsh tone now. Haba

I think it was just because he saw one of your comments recently and he just added your name. But I'm pretty sure everyone knows you didn't

Kog45:
I read your comment and am happy but do we need to appeal to anyone on how he or she make comment again cos we have been doing this all over and over again and is not working,so better to leave it and let the attacks continue.I know when times come it would mellow down naturally.

On Iheanacho, well I don't have much to say cos i see him they way i see other players and as i always said we must respect these players personality, respecting their personality does not stop us from expressing our views on them but such views should be in a well constructive manner.As it stand Kelechi deserves our support and he too should not relent cos we want the best for him.

I don't want to mention names but am not happy the way we make comments here especially personal attacks,if i may ask on what,football matters especially Super eagles which we all love.We should always have it in mind that eagles brought us to this thread,nothing more and everyone's opinion must be respected,it's not compulsory we should be on the same page,being on the same page we won't be at 2k plus pages.

My man as i said there is no need to apeal again cos we have had enough, so let it continue cos i don't expect a mature minds to resort to personal attacks when it comes to discussion.It's uncalled for

The main Iheanacho man here is thegoodjoe and i have great respect for this gentleman cos he always based his views on Nacho with constructive analysis and never look emotive to express his view on those who have contrary opinions which i always appreciate and i take a cue from him regards my approach to anything on Mikel cos is a player i love so much,Michael2 will understand better.

I still remember how some guys came in and made the thread heated up that some regulars have to be on ghost mode,they turned this thread up and down,i know icon4s will remember what am talking about,also how TheSuperNerd went on AWOL and some honourable member of this thread appealed to him to come back cos we missed him dearly.

One thing we should note there see things to gain from this thread that even football that brought us together,i don't think going to London and move around shouldn't be an issue to any of us here cos Komne is on ground or going to US and move around with the presence of icon79,better for us to take it softly the way we address ourselves cos we still have a lot to do together.

As i said personally i will not appeal for peace to reign again,we are mature enough to know what is right and wrong,what brought us here is eagles and it would be foolish of anyone here to hate or wish the team bad irrespective of the criticism.

Respect to all members of this great thread and Up Super Eagles.

well said.

On theGoodJoe, there is a way that he calls you a hater that will even make you laugh, totally expressing the fact that it was just a playful banter and he gets along with everybody else. I remember when we had that discussion about Mikel and it lasted for 10pages or even more, it was predominatly between me and you guys(you and theGoodJoe) and I am not sure we recorded a single insult. Also when I argued Isco with theGoodJoe, 3 straight pages and no single insult and we ended it amicably.

But you saying that we should not call everybody to order is false. This particular episode has an annoyingly familiar feel about it. On that matchday, when the Iheanacho debate started you could see I was including smileys in my comments to show that I was at ease, then theSuperNerd started the insults and some random guys joined him, kudos to people like Kennysville and one other guy who actually engaged me without insults, and ofcourse Icon4s and my main man Mujtahida. I tried to reply theSuperNerd peacefully but he kept up with the insults and when I stopped replying him he started attacking goldfish80 personally, you see just because we like to be gentle does not mean everyone will be, he'd probably go and insult another person and the person will start insulting his mom and he will come around to cry wolf, which is why the calling to order seems a nice idea for me. If someone wants to celebrate two goals against Fleetwood then you are free to, you don't see me calling anybody a fanboy or a plastic fanboy or something, it's your opinion and it remains solely that. But just because I said two goals against Fleetwood isn't exactly a mountain mover(which was supported by goldfish80 and Komekn) people start the attack and it is quite shameful that it has been championed by theSuperNerd.

I do not intend to reply any further issue on this but the internet never forgets, just so that when someone starts saying that we are against him I will dig up this comment and show it to everyone. Thank you

AIG07:
I'm not saying he is not good enough to compete. I'm only trying to weigh his chances in both clubs.

You and I know that he can't afford to make mistakes in England and go scot free-he won't go without getting a stick for every mistakes he commits either from the media or fans.

Benfica are known for *grooming* talents. There he will have the opportunity of expressing himself while learning the rope with little or no pressure of delivering.

they have actually started the season on the wrong foot, they are not among the top3 clubs in the Portugese league(I last checked their ranking when they played against Braga a few weeks ago) so Benfica as a whole hardly has any room for mistakes, and that would affect the players too. Nice to know he got loaned back

TheGoodJoe:
I can smell tha Hataz from a mile away.

Christ, Mujtahida come and see what I am talking about, a kid who has been praised as a world class player plays badly for games straight and scores two goals(AGAINST FLEETWOOD)and for three days straight he has been praised more than Drogba was praised for winning the champions league, is that the encouragement or celebration of mediocrity?

Mujtahida:
Thanks Doc. I saw how they came for your head and it was funny to me. I laugh no be small and said kai na im good for you .
On a serious note though, I have said it that both those who mollycoddle Iheanacho and those who criticize him all the time are no good for him. At best a good mix is what is needed.
And again one is tempted to put Iheanacho down when one sees the unrealistically high praises he receives here with words like world class etc(personally I don't see him as world class at all. Just a good player at least for now). But then to do this is to REACT instead of to RESPOND. To respond means you state the facts as you see them not in reaction to the trumpeters.

As for the psychology you kukuma be dokita. I trust you know better. Cheers my man.

their attack sef tire me, like I said anything bad. Anyways I am glad you understood my point, that's why you be my man

Humility017:
it baffles me how you talk sometimes...
making reference to traore is quite funny...
can you compare goal scoring chances created by Chelsea in a match to that of leicester?
moreover when nancho was in a team that creates better goal scoring opportunities he scored even more goals and created a record in the epl as a player wit highest number of goals by per minutes ratio...a record troare never dare creates despite the huge goal scoring opportunities Chelsea creates...in his time...

in his sojourn in Ajax now Marseille he has never been short of game time...so why won't he deliver....?
even the Manchester prodigy who left for Lyon have been profilic in the French League likewise the erstwhile Chelsea (falcao) and man city (balotelli)

I swear the way you misunderstand people is baffling. Did I say Traore is better than Nacho? Someone pointed out that 10mins aint enough time to make an impact, I then used Traore as an example how is that bad?

andrew444:
You be goat,to criticize naija players no dey hard una,how many match ihenancho has played that you want him to prove him self?someone that doesn't leave the bench at times?how you take dey watch your ball,abeg guy you too mumu,in this current market you call 25 million high price tag,I don't think you watch football but rugby,ihenancho wey most of him games na 10 min and 5 min,you want make him use am score goals,morata wey dem buy 75 million has he prove him self or lukaku? See salah wey dey cheaper dey bang goals anyhow,you guys should stop the jealousy on iheanacho and get a life

I am quite certain you can address him without the insults.

Do you know why Chelsea spent big money on Morata? Because he scored up to 10league goals for Madrid almost exclusively from the bench. How many african players are worth more than 20million? Ndidi wasn't even close to that so relatively it is big money, and for a club like Leicester, it is super big money.


What does it mean to take your chances? Not too long ago Traore would enter games with 10mins left(for Chelsea) and make enough impact, seasons later he is at Marsielle, easily one of their best players. You don't always get 90mins or even 45mins to prove yourself and it isn't exclusive to Iheanacho alone. He needs to be work hard to the point that even when he gets 10mins he would put in enough that would convince them to give him 20mins the next weekend, from 20 we get to 30 and so on and so forth, that's the progress we need in the Epl

Icon79:
Let me say this again: Kelechi Iheanacho is even better than advertised. Manchester City shouldn't have insisted on inserting a "buy back clause" to his contract if they didn't see his quality!

As I have tried to explain to y'all soccer gurus in this forum, you CANNOT score if you DO NOT play. How many games exactly did Kelechi play for Leicester to indicate that he wasn't good enough to start? And when he did play, how many goal scoring opportunities did he miss? Take it from me, Kelechi would be amongst the top 10 strikers in the EPL if he plays a full season for any team.

And let me say this again and again also, Kelechi is too good to be on Leicester City bench. His quality is much higher than the likes of Demari Gray, Shanji Okazaki, and even Jamie Vardy.

O pari

so Nacho is better than Vardy? Then again you were also the same guy that said that Nacho can be starting for Barca because he is better than Suarez right?

Mujtahida:
My guy the simple point Icon4s is making is that irrespective of anything whether against Fleetwood oo or backwoods ooo, the young man played well and scored and hence he should be praised. Even his coach praised him. It's not until he kills a cow that he should be praised.

Please beyond football remember you will have kids one day. Don't crush them with this high expectation syndrome. You will not praise until you are sure of 100%. No oooo. With your criticism the child might just give you 100% but he will hate you deep inside his soul. Encourage the child till he succeeds not when he succeeds. Truth is encouragement is a million times more powerful than criticism. In my estimation there's nothing like constructive criticism. All criticism is destructive. It's just that some people use the destructiveness to get better but it doesn't necessarily mean that criticism is by itself constructive. Encouragement says I value you as a human being and I believe you can do better. Criticism says all that matters to me is results, results and nothing more than results. Such an attitude is acidic, once it seeps into the psyche of a child it corrodes, it kills something vital in the child irrespective of good results

Thomas Edison's teacher called him dumb. His mother removed him from school, taught him and gave the world a genius. It's on record that even plants thrive when they are spoken to lovingly.

You are waiting for Nacho to be consistent before you praise him. But how can he become consistent if you don't praise him now. You are waiting for him to kill a cow before you become convinced
But We should and we will not wait till Nacho kills a cow before we celebrate him. He kills an ant, we rejoice, he kills a fly we rejoice some more, he kills a chicken, ohhhhhh we can't hold it, he kills a goat, we throw a party, he kills a cow, we just keep silent because our mouths will be too heavy with Joy.

I repeat: rethink criticism, don't go by the age old mantra of constructive criticism. That's a lie. Encourage, encourage, encourage all the time for encouragement is a million times more constructive than criticism.

encouragement I can agree with, infact I dish it out times without number, heck I even said Iheanacho would be my first choice ahead of Ighalo going to the world cup, that's on record which is why I don't reply senseless comments tagging me a hater when I am just trying to be realistic.

Ok now let's look at it this way, Iwobi once had a bad game and as usual goldfish80 called him out for it, I believe it was only tbaba1234 and basco that came to his rescue which is why when tbaba1234 took up this Iheanacho matter with me I kept quiet believing that he is the type of guy who gives a soft hand to everybody, that I can accept.

But then 10mins into a game(AGAINST FLEETWOOD)people were already saying how improved Iheanacho's game is(AGAINST FLEETWOOD) and immediately I said wait for the game to finish, I had tens of guys coming for my head, one perpetual noisemaker even made a lame joke about secondary school when I said Fleetwood is a non-division side, the only time I have ever heard of Fleetwood was when Vardy led Leicester to the league title, I mean we were told that Leicester went from playing for a sunday league team to winning the Epl and since Fleetwood was his team I immediately thought they were still a sunday league team which I aptly corrected afterall. Ok now if Martins plunders goals against Chinese teams we say they are poor, but now Fleetwood is raising so much emotion in our bowls? When you have a kid who went from taking 1st to taking 20, what will you tell the kid when he starts taking 15 when you know very well he can take that top prize? If Mbappe scores a double against Amiens will people even talk about it? That is what it should be, I believe in encouragement but when you encourage mediocrity then there really isn't any room for us to move forward, when you tell a kid that his failings are as a result of everyother persons' fault except his then how is he expected to sit up?(cc theGoodJoe).

Icon4s was making a lot of sense though, we should rejoice with him, we learn things about psychology and during marriage counselling we do tell parents that it's not all the time that you will show your kid that you are pleased with what they did outrightly, I mean if your 16year old kid boils yam for the first time, you may be happy but calm down, act is if you missed it and tomorrow he will cook yam porridge to impress you more, then and only then will you now congratulate him for that one and for the one he cooked the day before that. You are more into law which entails attacking things outrightly which is why I understand your stand, I am only suprised that someone like theSuperNerd does not understand my own point of view, but then again it's because it's me,if I say Nacho has a bad firs touch I am a hater

When we said Iheanacho should stay and fight for the Shirt at Leicester City, Some Dudes nearly got us lynched, coz they believe Bristol City has the best Manager in the World, in fact - Puel is a worse Manager comparing to the Bristol City Manager.

Also when we opined that Iheanacho is better off as a SS, that he would conveniently and confidently thrive in the Position, some Dudes believe he has been drilled to play as a lone Striker, hence he should continue his development as a lone Striker.

Iheanacho had a good Game because he's ready to fight, he ain't wanna run to a lower League. He knows the Match is like a Trial to him; had he played badly, he would have been on the Plane to Bristol City this Morning.

I'm really happy for him, but we need to be patient and see if he's gonna replicate the form and be consistent with it. Form ain't permanent, but class is. However, the combo of both makes you a world class Player.

Iheanacho ain't a world class Player, not even close to, at the moment. He has the potential to be, but truth has to be said; he's not and far to it for now.

Finally, to those mocking Kayode because Iheanacho had a good Game last Night, I guess you Folks have never pointed Fingers at Forgiveness as a Tribal Bigot.

Shalom.

brilliant, I didn't know there was still some rational minds left here.

Iheanacho has a bad game, Puel is the worst manager in the Epl, his system sucks, Leicester City sucks blablabla. When Iheanacho performs against Leeds and Fleetwood, he is world class, his talent is unrivalled, he can play anywhere across the frontline etc etc. Nobody wants to come to terms with the fact that maybe, just maybe some of his failings are his fault. Nobody has come out to praise the coach or the system since yesterday oh
