Pakonte:Doesn't an equalizer lead to a winning goal? Kelechi did what they couldn't do in 60 mins, Celebrating would've boosted their morale.. It was embarrassing but I'm sure kelechi has learnt his lesson he won't celebrate much again that's if he even scores this season again sef |

Mancity needing a winning goal is not a good reason why they shouldnt celebrate a goal afterall Diego Coasta's equalier against manu even at injury time was celebrated even if chelsea needed a win.... I guess they had personal issues with him. #jstsaying# 1 Like |

Excuse for celebrating o, whatever you guys try and opine, giving slacks to his teammates and not even tryna grant Nacho same is just a waste of analysis that was embarassing-simple it makes him look like a loner-simple it made him look like he wasnt repping City-simple the crowd arent the one deciding the game, the teammates are-simple Nacho wasted time-we can understand that but its not enough reason to say that city felt he was wasting time. Isnt it the same city that decided Epl in dying minutes when Taye Taiwo couldnt stop Aguero? So why make him look like he is to take blame. All of you shouting that he should grow up, pls just put yourself in his shoes. How would you feel when none of your teammates celebrate with you? Okay Ronaldo and Bale have envy btw them we all know it, and they are mature enough. Yet...... Abeg joor. If Nacho saves City in UCL now, we wont still accord him rightfully. If its another, we'l chant praises. Okay, why cant one of them do what Alexis did for Walcott's goal, huh? 1 Like |

Ayo25:What better way to show passion than to come in as a substitute and score after 9mins.. That is passion right there, the ungrateful lot who couldn't do their jobs couldn't celebrate with him , what stopped them from going to him and bringing him along with them to their own half.. And agueros Goal was pointless shouldn't have celebrated at all did Townsend celebrate when he scored against Chelsea no? So if you can celebrate a pointless goal why not celebrate an equalizer. To your question yes they celebrated with him a lot must've changed between that game and now because I see no logical reason for them not celebrating that goal 2 Likes |

Jhappy: Do you think Nacho leaving will hurt City? We are not spending loads just to win titles. Man City is a marketing brand for lots of companies. We need these players to bring eyes to the team. Just like De Bruyne was German league best player. A lot of eyes from Germany will watch City. As for trailing Leicester, the league is not over. Nacho is not in first eleven. In a 4-4-2 formation and a 4-5-1 formation with all City player fit, Nacho will not make the starting line up. |

lordthree: How can Man City be a mistake when Man City spent millions of dollars to make him a better player. Do you know how much Man City spent when Nacho was injury prone? Can you imagine the investment to take him for training at Barcelona's La Masia academy? What about the research to work with the Columbus Crew attacking coach. The multimillion pounds Football campus where Nacho has every sports and medical equipment to be a better player. What about the top class coaches Man city brought to the club to work with the youngsters. In the last match, we had four EDS former players on the bench including Nacho. You think the club played no role in their success? Nacho should train and forget the hype. He is not even up to an 18 years old Michael Owen. Yet Owen did not become great. The boy should train, work hard to get better and cut the flamboyancy. These men are too made to feel Jealous of Nacho. |

HARDBUOI: Aguero did not celebrate. He just pumped a fist and was glad he scored but he raced straight to the half way line. No one joined Aguero in celebrating it. |
Re: Any Reason Man-City Players Ignored Iheanacho's Goal? by TheGoodJoe(m): 5:13pm On Feb 15, 2016 |
lordthree: Did Aguero run to the Corner flag? Did he not run to the half way line? You guys do not get that if your players want you to fail, there is nothing you can do. Nacho is shining because his team mates want him to shine. They pass to him to score. Ask Shevshenko. |

HARDBUOI: What is bigotry? Is Theirry Henry saying that if his team was chasing the title and he equalised, he would run to the corner flag to celebrate. Someone posted the pics of Nacho and Theo Walcott's reactions. It is totally different. That celebration was ridiculous. We were equalising Tottenham. A team that has lost all games at the Etihad since 2010. There was nothing for the young man to celebrate, let alone his team mates joining him. Aguero, Theo ran towards the half way line to get the game going. The Cityzens ran towards the half way line to get the game going but Nacho went to the corner flag and knelt down to waste time in favor of Tottenham. The young man should learn from it and he would not react that way again. |

danidee10:if city were down to 2 goals they shouldn't jubilate But it was a equaliser. At the end they Still lost the problem in my view started when Guardiola was named as replacement. When they played Leicester they asked silly questions in the dressing room if the other will quit if Pep joins. They lost because of this i think there is more to the Iheanacho goal |
Re: Any Reason Man-City Players Ignored Iheanacho's Goal? by practitioner(m): 10:29pm On Feb 15, 2016 |
Good argument from both sides of the divide. At a point, I didn't know what to believe again because both side seem to be making a valid point. But after a careful observation, a little bit of research and a background check on this episode, I'm of the opinion that Iheanacho needs a little bit of growing up to do. Before you freak out on me on this stance, let me make the following points clear: 1) I'm a Mancity and Iheanacho fan; and I watched the match live. In fact, I have watched the replay of the goal more than ten times now. 2) I just watched most, if not all of the goals Iheanacho had scored as a City player and his celebrations of the goals; and this is what I deduced from his celebrations: i) City players do celebrate with him whenever he scores goals, so the issue of racism does not arise. ii) There had been one incident, apart from this present one, where the players didn't celebrate with him. That was in a preseason match they played with Ac Milan. It was only Clichy who went to pat him at the back where he was doing his usual routine at the corner flank. iii) In most of Iheanacho's goal celebration, he rarely recognizes the person who gave him the assist as most players do even while celebrating, but rather he runs off to go and do his usual ritual at the corner flank. 3) Iheanacho celebrates goals in training with the same exuberance he manifests during live matches, and his teammates had been trying to tame him on that. Look at this excerpt from a story goal.com ran about him: "In fact, Clichy and fellow left-back Aleksandar Kolarov have proven to be unexpectedly influential with the flashy striker(Iheanacho). The two have sought to round off the rough edges to his game, and tempered habits such as the occasional exaggerated tumble and his celebrating of goals in training." From the above quoted excerpt and the other points I had mentioned, one can reasonably infer that his teammates had been having issues with his goal celebration for the following reasons: A) Celebrating goals without giving some recognition to the player that assisted him with the goal; more especially given that he is a young lad in the team. B) Celebrating goals during training with such exuberance that would make one wonder if he had scored a World Cup goal, which is totally uncalled for. C) They had talked to him about these observations, but he seem to have turned a deaf ear; or would I say that his immaturity always seem to take over him whenever he gets to score those goals that he forgets what he had been told. In conclusion, my take on the incident is that the failure of his teammates to celebrate with him was intentional, but was done not out of hatred or racism( mind you, one of his closest pal in the team, Clichy, was there, and didn't even join him); but was done for the following reasons: 1) It was their own way of telling him that he has not been listening to what they have been telling him( "Somebody gave you that assist young man, why are you running off to the corner flank like it's the corner flank that gave you the assist. Hey, c'mmon man, it's even you pal Clichy that gave you that assist, how about running to him instead of the corner flank ?) 2) It was their own way of telling him to grow up and know when and how to celebrate a goal given the circumstances.(" What are you doing at the corner flank boy? Get the ball from the net and run as fast as you can to the touchline, we don't have all the time in the world, cos we need to win this match. And by the way, while you are making that run with the ball, we will give you some high-five, and pat on the back, cos we don't have time for an elaborate celebration" But hell no, priest Iheanacho was at his shrine (corner flank), doing his usual rituals. I also observed after watching the video like ten times now, that it was Aguero who rushed to get the ball from the net, while the goalscorer was already on his way to his shrine. I love Iheanacho and want the best for him, and am also sure his teammates does too. All we are saying is: "Grow up man!" 1 Like 1 Share |
