. If the coach thinks nacho is not serious or have bad attitude like you want us to assume, he should allows him to leave the club for regular playing time. He scored a fantastic goal last night and a reporter asked Brenda his thought about nacho stepping up. Instead of Brenda to answer the damn question, he dribbled his way to vardy. Na vardy dem ask am about?. I'm sure he will look for a way to bench nacho.
Iheanacho is only starting games because harvey barnes and maddison are injured

Happy for Nacho this dude can be the most prolific striker in EPL provided he plays under a manager that understands his strength and plays to it.
I was grossly irritated by the EPL studio eediots that blatantly said Nacho is not good enough to lead Leicester attack especially that clueless Heskey.
Vardy is running out of steam yet Rodgers keeps playing as if Vardy will be fit for life.
Nacho has put Hus team in pole position for top 4 yet some mumu say he's not good enough to lead the attack
Its high time Rodgers realized that Nacho is not Vardy and Vardy can never be Nacho. Play your team to the strength of your striker.
Heskey and Townsend grossly irritated me with those derogatory comments about Nacho.

I no go lie this Israel Adesanya loss dey pain my bone cry

It pains me more my boy lost, but he still remains a champ nonetheless. Even though his LWH debut and the weight disadvantage, he still got to last round, no KO, and he also fought like a man, he wasn't running in the cage.
I think he should have waited and improved more in MW before stepping up to LHW or bulked up for the LHW fight. The weight difference was visibly obvious in the cage.

If he wanted two division titles, he should have reduced his weight and joined Welterweight division initially and now come up to Middle weight to get the second belt, handling those two divisions would be easy for Izzy, but seems he's not interested in playing smart, all he wants is just big balls and bigger challenges. He's just too much in a haste to beat up all the good fighters in UFC.

Jan is a kind fighter, Jones would have broken Izzy's nose with his elbow with those take downs.
Then this loss might be a blessing in disguise for Izzy, even if he won, Glover would have been his next opponent. That one got no chill, would definitely maim Izzy. People like Thiago Santos, Reyes etc in LHW are there, even if Izzy scaled through Jan, I don't think he can go more than that in LHW, many bad asses in that division.

Heskey gave reason for his comment and I think he's right, that Leicester are set play to the strength of verdy and not iheanacho. I don't think he said iheanacho is a bad player, he only said both players play differently, iheanacho likes the ball to his feet while verdy like to be put on the run

Yea his take down defense let him down. The stand up fights were going to Izzy but once dude took him down in the 4th & 5th he just pinned him.

I think his last 2 fights had him believing that he could go up. Even me sef because Romero seemed bigger than this Russian.

BTW, which one is it pains u more Abi na contest grin

Before blaming the coach have you asked yourself if you can vouch for iheanacho attitude, work ethic, seriousness and professionalism in Training? Iheanacho is the only one responsible for making or breaking his self. I was really impressed by his last season performance

My statement is strictly based on Rodgers reaction in that video.

Izzy has an impression his skinny frame won't let him survive a take down/clinch/pin down, that's why he avoids them as much as possible. Rather I'd have expected him to learn the art of floor/take down combats. Fights can't be standing up mode all the time. People are already seeing this weakness in him.

I think his last 2 fights had him believing that he could go up. Even me sef because Romero seemed bigger than this Russian.
Yea, Romero is bulked up and as strong as a Gorilla but you can never compare him to Blachowicz.
Blachowicz is wider, much taller, weightier and bulkier. And he also has destructive jabs that shouldn't properly land on an opponent, or else it'd be pure KO.

BTW, which one is it pains u more Abi na contest grin
Pained that he couldn't prove his school of thought of speed superseding size.
Pained that he couldn't make a golden history today.
Pained he broke his invincible legacy and unbeaten record.
Pained worldwide haters everywhere are now masturbating on the loss.

Nonetheless, losing to a lion is different from losing to a dog. Izzy lost like a champ and still remains a champ in his division. He wasn't knocked out or lost by surrendering.
One thing everyone likes him for is his courage. Skinny boy with big balls and rare courage, the boy remains a legend and motivation worldwide.

I think Rodger knows Nacho is good but he does not like him for whatever reason best known to him.

I hope this is Nacho's last season there and also hopes Ndidi leaves that club.

Nacho's handlers must seek a team that will sign on paper they will give Nacho playing time.
Is that feasible? So if he loses form, that means they must give him playing time? And yes I agree Brendan doesn't like him.

Bros, Iheanacho's form has not been consistent and Rodgers has other options. No sane coach would drop a player who consistently gives in "A" Performances.

Like Vardy has been giving A performances in the last 14 games ba?

If it was Iheanacho with 14 games and no goal... By now Rodgers would have relegated him to the U23s

Fulham needs to survive this relegation battle.

They're too good to relegate. They play one of the best football in the world (not just in EPL).

Where were you at the end of last season when Rodgers threw top 4 away by removing Iheanacho from games he was the only viable option in?

Or not playing him in the league eary this season even though he was killing Europa.

Lool most of the pundits here are selective analyst. They already have our inner favorite and will be partial to those favorites. But tbh simy wasn't impressive in his few games for Nigeria. Infact all these tall guys are the poor man Kanu
