TheGoodJoe: Those that have been on this thread long enough can bare witness to the type of hype Iheanacho received here. Tomorrow you also deny that Iheanacho was ever rated higher than Mbappe here. How can you start giving excuses already for Iheanacho after just barely 15mins of EPL action with Leicester? When Ahmed Musa struggled last season you didn't blame it on the Leicester system. But it has come to Iheanacho 'the Leicester system doesn't suit him'. This is a golden opportunity for him. He better quickly adjust to the system and start playing. He is not getting any younger. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by TheGoodJoe(m): 3:54pm On Aug 12, 2017 |
Icon4s: No one said Iheanacho was as good as Messi and Ronaldo. That is simply not true. As for Mbappe, I remember me saying Iheanacho is a better finisher. I doubt that has changed. Mbappe has other things working for him that makes him a better player. However the point was judge Iheanacho after he has a good run of games. Baffling when you listed the reasons why Leicester City pack bus style of play may not suit Iheanacho especially with him not a top man but you are trying to change the narrative with the no excuse talk. Let us see how the season pans out but there is no need distorting the truth. |

Icon4s: He better quickly adjust ke. This is football he has his life ahead of him to make it right. It is not by snapping fingers. I hope it works out for Nacho. If it does not, he can switch to a more favorable atmosphere. |

TheGoodJoe: TheGoodJoe. Relax. You have started defending Iheanacho already when he has barely played up to 15mins. I would not have taken you up on this debate if you had not started blaming the Leicester system. Relax and watch the boy play. We are all Nigerians and wish he succeeds at Leicester. Nobody will come and beat you in your house if things don't turn out well for him. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by TheGoodJoe(m): 4:05pm On Aug 12, 2017 |
Icon4s: I am not defending Iheanacho. Keep that aside. I am talking of Leicester City as a whole. Forget the goals they scored. Their football sucked. It will look good for defending players like Ndidi, Amartey, Morgan, Maguire etc but atrocious for attacking players. I do not like Iheanacho in such system. It is not about him scoring goals or shining. It is the kind of way I want him developing with respect to the Super Eagles. I want our players playing in systems that complements what the coach is doing with the National team. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by TheGoodJoe(m): 4:07pm On Aug 12, 2017 |
Icon4s: I wanted Iheanacho in City or a system that plays a similar possessive and attacking style. It is some like you who feel football is about playing time. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by Icon4s(m): 4:09pm On Aug 12, 2017 |
TheGoodJoe: You purchase a player for 25million pounds and you don't expect him to hit the ground running. His years of apprenticeship are over. Arsenal expects Lacazette to start delivering and he has done so, Liverpool expects Mohammed Salah to start delivering and he has done so. Manu expect Lukaku to hit the ground running likewise Morata for Chelsea. A 25 million pounds player should hit the ground running. |

Icon4s: I would agree with you completely. The step up from junior football to senior is not easy and not all can make it. A lot of supposedly top players in EPL clubs looked promising even at U21 level. But alas so many have faded away even into non-league. I have been waiting for Chuba Akpom to answer name but he has not been able to step up and be counted. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by TheGoodJoe(m): 4:12pm On Aug 12, 2017 |
Icon4s: If you put Lacazete behind Vardy in that system played yesterday, it will prove hard for him to perform regularly. It is Plain logic. If Iheanacho played the role Lacazete played yesterday, there I no way he would not make a big impact in the long run. That is what I am saying. You should not just compare players like if they are in like for like situations. |

komekn: We have seen many step up. Like many. From Aguero, Messi, Ronaldinho, Willian, Alves, Fernandinho, Vidal, Forlan etc. Many of you are quick to point out who failed. What of those who succeeded. |

TheGoodJoe: Unbelievable! So you would have preferred Iheanacho continued with the same treatment he received last season at City? Only drills and no real action. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by Icon4s(m): 4:28pm On Aug 12, 2017 |

TheGoodJoe: It is not like ALL do not step up. MOST do not step up. From that list you stated name the ones that represented their countries at U17 level. |

TheGoodJoe: Later you'll say you are not defending Iheanacho. When Olivier Giroud was introduced last night Lacazette went into the supporting role. So what is there? I repeat if you insist Iheanacho is only suitable for a CF role at Leicester he will spend more time on the bench than he did at City. |

Awaziem playing right back, having a good game. Comfortable on the ball Ola Aina is also having a great game. |

Nantes vs Marseille, cracking game even though scoreless. Awaziem is looking the part. I believe that a solid season in Ligue one will make him a better player. |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by Icon4s(m): 4:48pm On Aug 12, 2017 |
TheGoodJoe: Leicester system suck? You expected them to have dominated play against a team like Arsenal at the emirates stadium? Besides what we saw Leicester play last night was typical of how they have been playing even the season they won the league. See I don't expect Iheanacho to emerge a player with the highest goals or highest number of assists this season. I expect to see a descent showing. I expect him to have a better run of games unlike last Season. I expect his number of goals to hit at least a double digit. I need him to come to the 2018 WC as a player fit and ready to compete at that level. I don't know what your own expectations are that you have already started condemning the Leicester system. |

Icon4s:so how has nacho not delivered? the boy has barely played a full 90 mins....with an assist to his name... how many minutes did lukaku played before he bagged in a goal...ikewise lacazette please stop trying to exonerate yourself thinking nacho is going to flop Leicester. even messi and Ronaldo will find it difficult to cope with that leicester kind of play |
