It is the club.
and you don't think the players ahead of him could be way better and more experienced? this you just jumped to conclusion that it's because he's black. it's not like Nwakali is modric or Iniesta that can't be benched.

If Iheanacho is to be featured as a CF the number of games he would sit on the bench In Leicester would be worse than what it was at City. Sebi na when Aguero they get injure Iheanacho Dey sometimes see game. Vardy is always as fit as a horse. He plays almost every game for Leicester.
Okazaki is also in a blistering form.

The long balls kind of game may not particularly suit Iheanacho as he has issues with his first touches. He is also not as pacy as Okazaki. Leicester does not typically play short 1-2 passes something Iheanacho is good at.

Well, my own is if you cannot outshine players like Okazaki and Vardy at Leicester City then you are not worth the hype after all. Period!
This is his chance to prove his mettle.

I couldn't agree more. Well let's hope that doesn't actually happen but if it does, trust them to say that it's because he is black. For one he isn't going to bench Vardy, English quota system with an English manager. Okazaki is the likeliest of choices, not to forget that Slimani is still around the corner. I think the fact that he didn't fully participate in their preseason tour is going to keep him on the bench for 6-7 weeks of this new season, hopefully he gets going ASAP, thank you Man City

you couldn't agree more but you just gave reason why he might be on the bench, and his ability was not one of them

the coach is just what he is, a rookie and I never appreciated this move at all! West Ham would have been better, why move to a team with a poor coach? I honestly hope this does not affect Iheanacho. The fact that Mahrez played the entire 90minutes shows just how poor this their coach is, and don't forget that it was the players too who told him to ditch Ahmed Musa afterall, poor poor coach

a really good coach...will know how to use musa....for a team strategy of these long balls....the guy has the pace...to be set up upfront..and trust me he will deliver

Lol na today u just hear of Obi. His stats have been good barring injuries.

If he says he is fighting his way back to SE, he has a case. It's his career, whether he break leg for SE or Torino, Na una one decide?

We remember today as the day our very own Samuel Sochukwuma Okwaraji died.

On August 11th 1989, He had earlier collapsed on the pitch of the National Stadium in Surulere during a 1990 World cup qualifier games against Angola. He was later pronounced dead in the early hours of 12th August, 1989. He was the strike partner (SS) to the also late Rashidi Yekini.

Sam Okwaraji, may your soul continue to rest in Peace. Amen.

the day I heard about that Kayode issue, I honestly included it in my prayers. It's players like him that I fancy, they gradually develop themselves and then they storm the scene when they are around 26-29 but if he moves to Girona(I have never ever heard of that club before now tbh)that dream will come to a sudden end

I guess you did not read not a chance. That is way beyond better and experienced players. And, I also doubt they had.

I totally disagree. Benteke does not suit Klopp's system. Does that mean he is not quality? It is a normal thing in football. We have seen players shine like diamonds in other leagues and system. Next thing those players are atrocious in another.

That is why if you see most of my suggestions of players moves, I always consider the system to suit the players. Others just go about playing time like if it is all that.

I expect Iheanacho to find his way around the situation but saying a player must shine in every system is not true.

I do not expect Leicester City to be all pack bus this season. There are teams they will play on a more creative fashion but their football is not the right fit for Nacho.

Have you really seen Chidi play aside U17 and U20?

Watch some of his highlights and followed much of his reports. I already made my point very clear that my rating of Chidi Nwakali has to do with Pellegrini's endorsement of his talent. Not me or you watching him lately.

After Girona, he has also proven himself by Playing well. Do you need to watch him again despite consistent good performances, reviews and an endorsement of Pellegrini.

From Austria Wien to Girona is a good move. Girona just got promoted to La Liga. Newcastle may have been better. But he is still a Man City player regardless. And he may just end up with his parent club stronger.

Nacho's best bet is playing behind vardy. I don't see Okazaki as threat to him. All he has to do is to score more than Okazaki(which I'm sure he'll.) I see him claiming d starting shirt after their EFL cup next 2wks.

the problem wit these English coaches is unique...when used as interim coaches they tend to do very well....Tom showerword comes to mind former coach of spurs who took over from villa boss....
but as soon as their appointment are approved as coaches of these teams...
they begin to misbehave...
one thing I like about the management of these clubs...is their swiftness sacking these coaches.....
should the poor run from pre season continues he will definitely be axed.
