lordfalcao:
best bet is sign him and still keep him on Monaco where he will be seeing good game time till he improves generally...

I don't think he or Monaco would accept such an arrangement, especially if Monaco reaches the UCL final. Its either Chelsea buys him outright or he remains at the Principality. He's waay above being sent out on loan like CFC has done to other youth players.

Ibime:


Which pace again.

So u sef dey play FUT?? Nice wan!

Lana1:

No I'm not a gamer but I believe if their army of scouts believe he has pace, then that is enough proof. Physical attributes don't lie in the eyes of so many witnesses. They can't see a slow player and say he is fast, nor can they see a weak player and say he is strong.

Interestingly, I was on the same pitch with this Iheanacho years back. I can recall vividly it was on one of those August Leagues, a tournament that was held annually in Ogbor-hill, Aba. That year, Taye FC who were based in Owerri were invited and they had a certain Kelechi in their midst.

Kid has always been a wonder boy. He won the best player of the tournament. No defender could match his pace, guile and power.

I never knew it was the same Iheanacho at the U-17, U-20 and now at City, until my younger brother who know plays for Gateway Utd mentioned it to me.

Kid is somewhere in North England pocketing thousands of pounds on weekly basis and getting talked about on NL, while I am somewhere in Nigeria dodging traffic.

How old do you reckon he is?

TeflonBlixx:


You aren't old yourself. .

Beware of the oldies on this section

I've been on this board since I was 18. I have been growing with the forum.

So it depends on the oldies you're talking about. I am a vet here.

Ibime:

25yrs. Max 26!

Griffon:

I had him at 23 years old based on this pic from 2010 with Ahmed Yusuf.

Bring your younger brother let's gather money and send him to China. . . since oga Airmark fell our hand when we sent him for trials by using pig-in-the-middle to learn slide tackling and dropped out of football. . . . eventually spending all the money we gathered on MMM.

Leave him. I will be laughing when he recommends me on this board for chelsea without knowing.

Chelseafan1:



Seconded! But I do not think its late for Kelechi, just a season shouldn't have affected him such that he wouldn't turn up in Chelsea next season.

Lukaku suffered more than Kelechi in the hands of Mou but that didn't stop him from doing well at Everton, I think if you got it, you got it.

be sure of what you type. Lukaku did not suffer anything under mou. Someone that didn't even stay up to 2 months before being shipped out. He was shipped out before 1th of October.

RIP to Ugo Ehiogu.

Damn I also read he was recuperating. Wow. That's so sad.

'The magic is in Alli's movement'

Tottenham's Dele Alli taps-in Spurs fourth goal
I've been watching Alli closely this season and he clearly has great technical ability - you can see that from his touch and from his finishing.
The magic for me, though, is his movement to get into the box without being marked.
If you watch him during games, he is always very aware of what is around him - his head is always moving and he is waiting for the right time to make his run.
That intelligence is the special thing he has that sets him apart.
Some of it is natural, but other parts of it you work on, which is why I think he will get better and better as he gets older.
That was the case with me - I worked it out. I was never the quickest player, so I knew I had to get an edge somewhere else around the box.
You only need a yard and I used to wait for people to either take their eye off me, or to switch off.
Midfield players generally don't like running back and defending around the edge of the box so I always had the idea that, if I could get in and around there and make my move at the right time, then I would get my yard.
With experience, it is something you get even better at. Alli has only just turned 21, so he can certainly do the same.

'Cut off his service' - how Chelsea can stop Alli
We have already seen a big improvement from Alli this season, and part of that is down to him being higher up the pitch.
He has developed into a number 10, playing behind the main striker, rather than being a number eight and a more traditional midfielder who likes getting forward.
He is so clever with his movement and clinical with his finishing, so he had to be given that free rein.

Alli is a highly intelligent player - the kind of number 10 we have been craving in England for years, and bemoaning the fact we have not got one. Now he has really arrived.

The reason he is so effective is because knowing what he does is one thing - but stopping him doing it is completely different.

It is a big ask for Chelsea to nullify Alli completely on Saturday but it will be critical to the outcome of the game.

For that to happen, it will be down to whoever plays in midfield for Chelsea - potentially N'Golo Kante and Nemanja Matic - to stop the service into him.

If Alli gets the ball in an attacking area, then he is dangerous whatever he does, whether it is with long shots if he is behind Harry Kane, or if he is running past Kane and arriving in the box from deep.

You cannot afford to give him any space at all and I am sure restricting that will be an absolute priority for Chelsea on Saturday.
They will obviously have to deal with Kane and what he is doing up top too, but behind him Alli will play a decisive role if the Blues allow him to.-FRANK LAMPARD

Guys please if you have a child who is American by birth with pp, does not have green white green pp but a resident of Uk with permit and an option to get the British pp anytime. Now knowing that legally one can't lay claim to 3pps of 3different nations without having to drop one of them.

My question is ,which of the 2pps out of the 3pps will u want that child to have and why?

I personally can't see the usefulness of an American passport, especially if I have, or have the option to obtain a British passport.
