How many goals and assists has Iheanacho had this season?

6 goals, 9 assists for club, 1 goal, 1 assist at AFCON.

Englandboy:
Balogun with a goal

bbbut he is uncomfortable with the ball at his feet

Very few coaches know how to use a player like Iheanacho. That guy is a gem.

drDoom3:
Iheanacho is so dangerous from the right edge of the 18 yard box. Most of his goals this and last season have been from there. Bottom corner, top corner, left, right, he just needs one touch to control and before you know it the ball is in the back of the net.

He is our most clinical striker and has no business playing in the midfield

He also cannot lead the line alone. Dilemma

He’s best as a SS

Eguavoen's 4-2-4 is still the best way to accomodate Nacho. My problem is he should know when to switch it to a 4-3-3 when it becomes too predictable.

Ronaldo reborn a man

TheLoneCitizen:
Yira Sor what a finish.

Then celebrates like Ronaldo. 21-year-old man.

Yes, he can. There are various types of striker and when your best quality is finishing, you have to be in the box

No, it’s not

They never wanted him indeed because na only you get eyes

This article is disrespectful to Olise, his father and Nigeria. We deserve an apology for this ridiculous and demeaning headline. It's high time the African community rejected any form of racist or White superiority complex from this stupid white elitist media. It's high time Black man knew that superiority in tech/industry doesn't make you a superior human. The world didn't start in the ADs.

Why do we keep demanding apology for being offended? No one owes you anything. If you feel offended, deal with it yourself. You don't change inferiority by demanding apologies, you do it by showing why you are not inferior by competing on the world stage. I apologized doesn't mean I have changed my mindset, you proving me wrong does.

Yes, he can and that’s probably his best position. If filmirho can do it, kelechi can also do it. How can someone with such exquisite finishing not be able to play as a 9? Isi odigi mma? Go and watch kelechi first season in Manchester and return back to me

Salah cannot lead a line, despite his strength, speed, and excellent finishing. Have you ever asked why?

Mertens who is much smaller led Napoli's attack for years. Have you also ever asked why?

Iheanacho is getting better though, especially with his hold-up play and pressing.

What you should say is that his pressing and hold up play isn’t the best for a 9 but that doesn’t disqualify him from playing that position because he is a clinical finisher. Drogba pressing wasn’t the best but he is still regarded as Chelsea Goat

Whichever formation the eagles are just too predictable to play with. Just few technical players in the team

Honestly, we’re just lacking intelligent players like Kanu, Finidi or mikel

Don't be too quick to speak. Read to comprehend. Civilzation evolves. From Egypt to Mali to the Arabs to Greece to Rome... Everything takes time.
When you are offended it's within your right to demand an apology. It's a complex and cowardice to keep mute when offended. Your own reaction is what matters.

Most times, he fails to control the ball with that one touch and is quickly crowded out or dispossessed.

Also his pressing, closing space, work rate, ball playing ability, link/hold-up play, speed, physicality & strength etc leaves much to be desired.

His strengths - shooting & clinical finishing.

He's presents a conundrum of sort as he's not the best for the role of an attacking midfielder, support striker or a 9.

Good enough to be a squad player and making substitute appearances but shouldn't be starting games for the Super Eagles as his minuses outweighs what he brings to the team.

I believe that, because his best quality is finishing, he will make a good top 9 and consequently, if chances are created, he will score. Eguavoen should never play this man anywhere in the midfield because he isn’t a midfielder

If you watch yesterday's game you will notice great improvement in his holdup play. With iheanacho you will agree with me that striking is not just about pressing, just like Daka was pressing without sense. For Leicester I'll go for nacho as a top 9 to Daka

you can show Iheanacho improvement without degrading daka, just because Iheanacho doesn't have the strength does not warrant you to call daka's effort senseless and daka has finishing also with his pressing game that what puts him ahead of nacho in the team so nacho should work on his flaws and put daka behind him so will you join people to call osimehn pressing game senseless when he fails to score in a game and martens is brought on and get a goal in Same game

The straightest truth bro. When someone sees that you're below par, it's going to be very difficult for the person not to look down on you. That's human nature.

Not justifying racism in any way, but the truth is that it may not stop by campaigns and activism.

Exactly. That's why it's difficult to say if Ihenacho is a flop or an outstanding player. Ighalo's case is also similar but he has more strength and misses more too.

All these do not apply when you take offense when none is given. If you choose to interpret a statement in your own way and then take offense in your interpretation that is your business. What if France and England were mentioned specifically because they are both European nations and the player is based in Europe? African conversations will put Africans first, same with Europe.

You need other qualities besides finishing to lead a line
