Yes his time will come. I don't expect Puel to start Nacho in many games like that... But I see him starting a few games and getting much more games as a sub. I think that is better than being left out of the match day squad altogether or being placed on the bench but not being used. Nacho will get decent game time ahead of the World cup this second half of the season. I really hope so and I think he will. That way he goes to Russia, makes a statement in the GWG and returns even more valuable. The Slimani and Ulloa deals outta King power are blessings for Nacho. AIG07: 1 Like |

Well, Kelechi should've requested a trade even if Puel doesn't want him to leave. You're a lot more optimistic than me because I still don't see KC getting much playing time. Excuse my pessimism but I don't know what's going on at that football club - Leicester City. Something tells me that you won't play if the likes of Jamie Vardy and Wes Morgan don't want you to play. Or else they would start losing matches. I think there's a very strong clique in that football club. I don't wanna name names but I heard it from a very reliable source that Leicester started losing matches when Claudio Ranieri insisted on playing the likes of Ahmed Musa and Slimani ahead of the likes of Demary Gray and Albrighton. Anyway, let's hope and pray that Kelechi would get some much needed playing time because we need him to be match sharp in Russia. I personally don't have confidence on Odion Ighalo leading our attack. O pari TheSuperNerd: |

Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by Icon79(m): 8:23pm On Jan 31, 2018 |
But you guys gotta understand that it wasn't Slimani that was keeping Kelechi on the bench! It was the likes of Shanji Okazaki, Demary Gray, Albrighton etc. So as long as those players are still at Leicester, I can't see how KC's situation has improved. Abeg, mek una excuse me but, for some reasons, I just can't get over the fact that a player like Kelechi is sitting on Leicester city bench. There's too much injustice there!

Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by Icon79(m): 8:34pm On Jan 31, 2018 |
But Kelechi doesn't have to play as a top striker. He can play as a SS or even as AM. And he could play from the flanks as he did on Saturday. So I think he can play together with Vardy. And in addition, Vardy (considering his long dry spells this season) is not even good enough to bench Kelechi. Granted that Vardy has a history and record with Leicester but, apples to apples, Kelechi is still a better player (*tries to duck a bullet from Komekn*) O pari tbaba1234: |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2025 And 2026 World Cup by TheSuperNerd(m): 8:37pm On Jan 31, 2018 |
Yes O pari master, I surely understand your concerns and where you are coming from. Like I said, I don't expect to see Kelechi starting enough games. I think he will get more games as a sub and few games as a starter. If Puel exceeds my expectations then fantastic! . But I am being very cautious and careful here. Vardy wants to ensure he is England's second choice striker behind Kane ahead of Russia so he will surely get most of the games. One thing is certain... Beyond Vardy and Okazaki starting together, the go-to man would be Kelechi. And If Vardy is unavailable, the go-to man would be Kelechi because Okazaki cannot play Top 9. There is no more Slimani or Ulloa to step in for the rest of the season if Vardy is missing for any reason. It will be Kelechi most of the time. As a sub, I expect Kelechi too to come in for either Vardy or Okazaki depending on the game plans or dynamics. And of course I expect him to start a few games. In conclusion, I for see him having few games as a starter and more games as a sub... Still good enough for me. But if it exceeds those expectations, then great! Kelechi will be in fine form for Russia. And I even think his "balanced" gametime involvement for this second half of the season will favor Nigeria at the mundial because he would still be fresh and won't suffer burn out. Icon79: 2 Likes |
