Hey I'm not happy that Iheanacho is not doing well,what do I stand to gain from his misfortunes?

I'm only correcting those blaming Guardiola, Rohr, Puel even the pitch for Iheanacho's problem that his sole undoing is his attitude

gamaliel9:
Please...how can people compare Obafemi Martins with Iheanacho.....Obafemi in full flight was pure magic....Can Iheanacho run...bikokwanu...

This is how some people started to compare Iheanacho with Mbappe here

The EPL is the fastest, most competitive and physically intense league IMO.

The Bundesliga is not as physical and or intense so it's relatively easier for technically proficient players to excel and stand out.

A number of English players who have not been able to get game time in thier clubs. Have gone to the Bundesliga and ripped it apart.

Ademola Lookman
Reise Nelson
Jaden Sancho
Batshuayi

So the idea the Bundesliga is not good development is simply not true. I have my suspicions that if KC had gone to the Bundesliga he would have progressed more positively.

Jaden Sancho has been quite impressive in the Bundesliga for Dortmund so much so he was called up to the England squad. Surprisingly he is only 18, leaving Manchester city has proved a very wise decision.

daveP:
Perhaps they never watched Obagoal that's why That guy was a beast to the best defenders in the world then at AC Milan. When Nacho faces Ramos and Van Dijk and turns them inside out, I'd begin to say he has flashes of Obagoal. lol. Same for Chukwueze!

Curtisaxel7:


It's appalling. Some people just choose to be blind.

Kelechi Iheanacho is a very poor footballer. End of discussion.

chrisooblog:
lol yet fuchs in his first season won the EPL title

Son that was a passenger in the bundesliga is tearing it up in the epl

auba barely played a full season now is joint top

ogbeni don't make me laugh this afternoon

Bravo! Bravo!! You think with this lengthy post of yours, you've done enough to wear me out? Think again.

Listen, I've been here long enough to know your motives, I was once in your corner, but not anymore as you've become too boring and predictable.

[b]You've done a good job pointing out what Ajayi has failed to do 3-4 years ago and have succeeded in highlighting what Iorfa has done 3-4 years ago and no longer does. [/b]I

So, by this sorry logic of yours, we ignore a player seeing games for a player who's been totally frozen out of competitive football? Oga, I hail you.

You said something about consistency, after his consistent run of games in the championship for 2-3 seasons, what next? No-one knows his whereabouts.

You keep yapping about OPPORTUNITY, and I don't know if you've ever gotten to face the harsh reality that OPPORTUNITIES, won't stare you in the face for a lifetime.

There was an opening for Iorfa to join in the team, he chose to say no at the time, whatever his reasons, I don't care. Had he said yes, I doubt if Ekong would be in the SE today.

An Iorfa who doesn't play cannot be invited in place of an Ajayi that's not just playing but doing well, get that and stop being a cry-baby!

And you're calling me a bigot and an hypocrite for calling your doible-standard asš out? For that, take am

Transfer to where? No club would want a lazy bum

andrew444:


So now a league determines injury ?

And joel obi is also injury prone at Italy

I don't expect balogun to be injured at the Epl ,he had only started 2 games ,if balogun have gotten more starts I think he would have suffered injury

Germany league does not determine injury okay

Obasi injury woes started at the 2010 World Cup ,obasi was injury free at hoffienham

What about Anthony Ujah ? I think for the past 4 season he is Nigeria player with the highest appearance in Germany but never injured .

Bros Germany league no dey give injury abeg .

Firstly, you have chosen to be completely ignorant of the specific time lines. I am not sure why, maybe to mislead

From 2012/13 until 2017/18 season Iorfa has been playing non stop in the Championship. So what do you mean by 3/4 years ago. Is that not misrepresentation and deception

I gave multiple example tied to time lines.

There are two major time lines here. Which you failed to mention. NFF called on him when he was well under U21 he explained very clearly he could not commit.

Why ❓ long term contractual obligation not confirmed with club, two he was already involved deeply with England U21, three he had Arsenal, West ham and Southampton to mention a few - https://www.expressandstar.com/sport/football/wolverhampton-wanderers-fc/2016/06/06/report-wolves-dominic-iorfa-prefers-a-move-to-west-ham/

Four, he was being courted by England first team. As you should know all these components add market value to your profile and you use them as leverage to get the best contract you can. He was open, honest and transparent. So to avoid negative English media speculation he said he will commit when he is 23. He was playing the game as you do but to Nigeria's favour.

Once his long term future was settled Wolves refused to sell him to all the EPL clubs. Assured him very strongly he had a bright future at Wolves, there was no reason to doubt. He had already played over 70 first team games, confirmed first team regular, he therefore signed with Wolves.

Early 2017 he was 21 years old, he broke commitment to England and made commitment to NFF. Rohr came to see him he was hot property. That discussion did not materialise in a call up despite assurances. Why ❓ ask Rohr or the NFF.

Unfortunately quite shockingly unexpected Mendes in 3017 took over the club brought in Nuno and EVERYTHING CHANGED. The business model excluded Dominic not his football.

The 2018 /19 first time in his career he has not played first team football. He is still a Wolves player, l doubt they will let him play because it will upset the business model, if he plays too well.

Just like Sakho he remains active playing U23 where he has been outstanding but still ignored.

https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/dominic-iorfa-sends-message-nuno-15196162

We have had players not making the bench but still invited to the SE. So where is the double standard and who is being bigoted. You avoid the historical factual actions that have brought us to this stage.

You avoid facts and hold on too sentimental straws.

Should he be invited now ❓ Or we should wait till he gets a Premier club in January.

When Costa didn't play for Chelsea for how many months because of dispute with the Manager, did Spain forget him question ❓ ❓ ❓

Who is showing double hypocrite bigoted standard

busky007:
are u seriously comparing Costa to iorfa. Is Nigeria a club launching pad. U haven't even answered a question u were asked about chukwueze. See bros Lets be frank to our self
No coach not even Seychelles coach will call a iorfa who we are not sure may play in the next 2 years
Don't tell me double bigoted stuff oooo
You are saying if Ramos stay 6 months without playing Enrique will call him when there are other FIT AND PERFORMING players

sontoly:
Nacho receiving so much bashing of recent is not a surprise.

To whom much is given, much is expected. He (Nacho) has not lived upto half of his hype and expectations. His case is similar to that of Mikel Obi when he moved to Chelsea, people expected so much from such an excited attacking midfielder who was expected to create many goals and score at least upto 10 goals a season could not manage to score 5 goals throughout his stay at chelsea. Will you say he is bad player? No.

It was a nuisance to the ear hearing derogatory remarks about him and why he would have been better playing for Man Utd than Chelsea, how are we sure he would have developed to a player we wanted?.
Unlike Mikel, Nacho decided to leave a club he shunned like a million stars and more suitable to his playing pattern to a club that is comfortable playing a typical kick and follow football all because of temporary bench warming, I remember people making jest of mikel warming the bench, but one thing was certain, every coaches that came to Chelsea then find Mikel totally indespensable.

The deed has been done, what is left for him is to re-invent himself to suit Leicester playing pattern or get another club that suits him better.

Earthquake2:


Leicester, Burnley and Watford are the only PL team employing SS and Iheanacho clearly does not fit into any of them

So If Iheanacho is kicked out of Leicester, na straight to Championship or another league

TheGoodJoe:


Aguero, Gabriel Jesus are not your regular number nines but more of false nines. Nacho would have fitted in perfectly when he gets his chances like he did on repeated occasions when Guardiola gave him playing time. It must not be support striking. The likes of Lacazette, Aubameyang, Ciro Immobile, Suarez etc. I wonder why people are so cut up with the support striking role.

Icon4s:


Please you cannot compare Mikel's case with that of Iheanacho. Mikel despite being drafted to the DM role was at that initial stage a starter for a stars studded Chelsea side. Iheanacho was a bench warmer at City and even now at Leicester. Plus Mikel was delivering the goods in the Super Eagles colors. Iheanacho is not making any impact for both Club and country.

Yes, he was overhyped by many but a lot have since lowered their expectations. I never for once hyped him but I also never expected his game level to be this low at this stage in his career such that even Rohr mentioned it that Iheanacho has lost his confidence. His development seems to have stalled since after leaving City. There was a picture taken of Iheanacho and a couple of some other players in camp against SA and he looked so diminished psychologically.

It's either he shapens his pattern after Leicester's style of play or he seeks a transfer next summer.
