Iheanacho is not 20years....


He is in his mid thirties...

Nigerian players should learn that Pele did not become great by reducing his age.

wristbangle:


Bros I be barca fan but why I said "sometimes" I had to admit he is because he doesn't believe well in Africans most especially.

Can we say someone like Iheanacho is not performing well?

Jeffboi:



There's different between real age and football age ode





Zlatan IBRA. Is 34yrs in football age, real age he's up to 40

Even Rooney is 32, Messi 30, all these guys dey theirate 30s

Humility017:


his move to city was a never a waste of time
the young man has learnt so much
he has proved himself...
all he has achieved within the space of time all shows hardwork...walking into the first team within the space of 2-3 years is no child's play
he has left a landmark for others to follow
I wish him well ..

uchemelvin20004:
Guy say what you know, Kelechi grew up in my hood, we actually attended the same primary school and he was my junior. He is a very small boy, He was born in 1993 so it's just 3 years that he reduced and in football terms it's normal . He's real age is 23 not 30 something

caprini1:
His goal scoring ratio was better than 80% of the top strikers in the EPL....only guardiola knew why he treated the boy the way he did.

ChiefSweetus:
If he started at Porto rather than City, by now, he'd be entering the EPL into Liverpool or Leicester or so, rather than what some may assume is a step-down to the hammers.

Nevertheless, great move. He will become the pointsman of a very decent West Ham team that already has a cohesive and creative midfield.

Best of luck to the lad. He's found his level. City was the wrong environment.

kechywillz:
The fact still remains that Ruman Lukaku was not valued in Chelsea, as soon as Everton signed him,he became a force u couldn't reckon with,so it's a nice move for iheanocho to move to were they value his craft,I believe man city will regret selling him when he becomes an unstoppable force

kelly72:
At the prospects of Iheanacho to West Ham, some of their English fans think as follows:


@hammers_chat I agree with Gonzo that we need an athlete upfront but don't forget Batshuayi can be lazy aswell..Wouldnt say no to Iheanacho

Iheanacho. There has been talk and it would be a great deal. 20m for a player of this calibre in today's market is nothing. Absolute steal. pic.twitter.com/vlBIE859rl

— MN¹⁶ (@RegistaWHU) May 18, 2017
@Harryhamilton97 Iheanacho for 20M would easily score 13+ a season in the PL. Batshuayi on Loan and Defoe on a free would cover the Strikers

— MR (@WHU_MR2013) May 18, 2017
You don't understand how happy I'd be to get Zabaletta and Iheanacho from city

— Ben (@BenMcKeever_WHU) May 18, 2017
Do people actually think Iheanacho or Batshuayi will be at WHU next season? Can't see either wanting to come or G&S offering enough tbh!

— John (@FJohnf1964) May 18, 2017
I would definitely look into getting Iheanacho though from City. If Pep wants him gone, get him here. A lot of potential there like Fletcher

— WHU Daily (@DailyWhu) May 14, 2017
Imagine we got Iheanacho, he's everything we need as a Striker

— Jåck (@_JackWHU) May 13, 2017
We should go all out for Iheanacho, King, Sigurdsson and Zabaleta plus a couple of loans!! #WHUFC #COYI

— Rob clark (@Clarky_R) May 18, 2017
Would love to see us get Defoe & Iheanacho in for next season. #whufc #coyi

Iheanacho is a very talented and promising young forward, and the Nigerian would be a good signing for West Ham.


Then check the reactions of some Nigerians here. Any wonder why people don't grow here?

Humility017:


exactly my brother

adegwurulez:

Thanks for the info Dr. NwaObinkita. Hope little Iheanacho didn't give you too much trouble 35yrs ago when his mum was bringing him for post natal check ups?

caprini1:
The beauty of the whole thing ,is that it's still a win win situation for Kelechi.

bedspread:
Common Togo and Senegal players de get value pass 9ja players...
Mtchewww

Humility017:


yes oooo
though I had wanted him go to Germany
but I am OK with wherever he chose to go
I know his abilities, what he tends to offer

Reference:


Not well enough for a top four club. You watched the matches he played especialky towards the end of the season when city were still chasing. His measured impacts did not exceed that of Aguero or Gabriel. If you are a coach in that situation, looking to tie down a title or survive the top four you will not gamble and play him ahead of a more experienced Aguero or a more technical Gabriel. He has a bit to learn and if City cannot give him that opportunity this move to Westhan is welcome. City is not a player building club. No club aspiring to titles builds players be it Madrid or Bayern or does trials on the field of play when chasing.

Humility017:


Bro...if u really watched his formative years in city...
during his preseason tourney
you will see his wonderful assist
that guy is so selfless and also a good assist
u don't know him at all
I have been following his football ryt from his under 17 days
that assist attribute is still in him
just like Mikel still plays good 10 whenever he is called to just like last Olympic game in Brazil

Reference:


But this is what I say. Top teams don't build players. To expect Chelsea to build Lukaku whike chasing titles is day dreaming so he has to go to other clubs with less ambition to build. Nothing wrong in that. Lukaku came to the Premiership too young and too green. They saw the Drogba potentials in him but Drogba had been playing in France for a long time honing his skills. Premiership is for established players. So they went for bad boy Costa. Depending on Lukaku since he joined Chelsea would have meant no prospects of trophies since then.

anigbajumo:
One thing I hate about pep,he is a racist. He pushed city management to cut toure earning to 50% yet he still stay at man city...Let c eat will happened to toure next season, he will force all the African boys out of man city...

caprini1:
With Feghouli,Ayew,Lanzini supporting him,he will do better,west ham is a decent side.

Reference:


Toure is way past his prime abeg and winding down his career. Nigerians lay too much emphasis on individuals. We do too much idolatry. Pep has always been about his formation and playing those with the qualities to adapt be it for good or bad results. Pep is a racist we hear yet brought in Gabriel Jesus. Jesus na white boy.... (no pun intended).

EvilMetahuman:
Westham is not a bad team

I hope he doesn't flop this time

Xmen149:


point!

you got it,.he is attacking midfielder and finisher(false stricker) but not a stricker ,. he just needs more controll and playtime dude z gat a lot in him if he works hard

Freiden:


hopefully, he wont be playing second fiddle to Caroll.

banmee:


And that is why Nigerian players deceive the outside world. Because there is no way to prove his age. But, you and i know he is not 20 years old. Right now, walk outside and look around you. Do 20 year old men in Nigeria look like that? Or even have that kind of skill level. I played soccer in Nigeria for many years with Abuede and osjack football clubs and i can tell you that there is no way in hell a 20 year year old looks like that.

successinlife:


Do you have proofs?it is not good to guess atimes.

clevadani:
No.
He should have gone to a team like Porto, Monaco, benfica, Dortmund. Not West Ham.
