TheGoodJoe: Two seasons in Leicester City after 44 EPL games he has scored 4 goals. But since we love to look at past glories let's look at his entire career in the EPL including at Manchester city. This will mean a total of 90 games over 4 seasons in the EPL with total goals scored 16. Is what you would call BRILLIANT FINISHING ❓ ❓ l am confused. Now when l said he would struggle to get a championship side, with this kind of form, I was described as being a HATER. There many players who have a far better record than him in the EPL that are playing in league one. |

komekn: I told you before that the system held Nacho back. You want to culminate those systems to downplay Nacho's attribute. You are free to run with that delusion. Rodgers has already told us Nacho is scoring goals in training. When Nacho played for City and was in a fluid offensive system, he was one of the best in Europe. And that is a fact.

TheGoodJoe: You are manipulating statistics to present a facade which is entirely MISLEADING. Even the WAS is misleading best in Europe would imply top twenty at the very least. Taking performance in limited time segments in exclusion is deception. That is what you are doing. |

komekn: Iheanacho went for two preseason tours with City and came out as one of the best players. Nacho also was a stand out player in the academy and broke through into the main team of City. To the best of my knowledge the only Academy player to break in in recent years. This same player was the best player in the U17 World Cup and broke into the Super Eagles with good goal scoring stats. The only blip was at Leicester City. Take away Leicester City and you have nothing to run with. The poor Leicester City form was as a result of their atrocious system. Nacho is a brilliant finisher and has been immense in it. You are using the terrible system of Leicester City in the past to sell a false narrative. 2 Likes |

komekn: It is not deception but a true sign of his quality. With limited time on the pitch, he was able to do more than those who were having steady runs. How that can be misleading is baffling. Even Rodgers has explained that Nacho came in to affect things. What Nacho did was prolific and the talent is not dead. Rodgers has told us that Nacho is scoring goals in training and that is what matters. Let the young man bend down and work. Nigerian youngster, Kelechi Iheanacho, has once again been named the most clinical finisher in Europe. At the end of last season, some pundits picked the FIFA U-17 World Cup winner as the most accurate striker among the European leagues based on the number of goals he scored and the minutes he spent on the pitch. And now after last weekend’s games across Europe, BBC Sport in their survey chose the Super Eagles’ striker as the deadliest striker in the continent judging by the same criteria. https://guardian.ng/sport/again-iheanacho-named-as-europes-most-clinical-striker-per-minute/amp/ If this was Solanke, I bet you, you will be Rubbing it as a sign of his quality. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

komekn: Most accurate striker among the European leagues based on the number of goals he scored and the minutes he spent on the pitch. There is nothing misleading about the statement. It is clear as daylight. “And I’m sure when the time comes, if he gets a chance to play consistently, he will take that chance." Brendan Rodgers (Leicester City Manager.) Hope you note the sureness in Rodgers statement. After his assessment, Rodgers is sure with a consistent run of games, Nacho will take his chances with what he has seen. I will take Rodgers words over a lot of people who take time running down Nacho. Finito. 2 Likes |

@TheGoodJoe. A player's innate qualities will show irrespective of his team atrocious system. That Nacho is a brilliant finisher and has been immense in it is not in doubt, but he needs to improve on his noticeable flaws over the years which have continued to show. 3 Likes 1 Share |

zoboizee: Not true at all. I pointed out earlier how Keshi relied a lot on long balls to big, strong strikers and his system was not suitable for Martins, that is why he flopped under Keshi. Same way Luis Suarez pointed out that he would not have succeeded if not for the system adopted by Rodgers. Football is deeper than what some of you try to sell. A big reason why players flop is system. That was why Thierry Henry flopped at Juventus and was one of the best in the history of football under the tutelage of Arsene Wenger.

NPFL news: It looks like Kada City FC and Delta Force FC have switched places. Delta Force has moved to the NPFL and Kada City is back to the NNL. Delta Force will play their home games in the Stephen Keshi Stadium in Asaba. Chigozie Agbim was unveiled to the fans on Friday. He was supposed to have started the game on Sunday but I'm not sure if he did. https://www.independent.ng/delta-force-return-to-npfl-through-the-backdoor/ https://www.brila.net/delta-force-unveil-emmanuel-deutsch-as-new-coach/ https://www.brila.net/agbim-set-to-start-for-delta-force-against-go-round-fc/ |
