Popular Post Finnegan Posted 3 February 2019 Popular Post Share Posted 3 February 2019 I've never seen a player look so desperately short of confidence. The crowd desperately need to get off his back and support him. Anyone that believes he's really just that shit does not know football. Is he world class? No. But there's plenty worse strikers in the league that contribute for their teams, the Shane Longs, the Calvert Lewins, I mean look at Josh King. He's no better technically than Iheanacho he's just got bags of belief playing for a settled side. Lacking confidence is an incredible experience, it can absolutely paralyse your body and mind, as someone with issues with anxiety, being nervous can absolutely shatter even the most basic of motor functions. He's never going to get any better with everyone on his back all the time. He really, really isn't as shit as half the people act like he is. His performances have been I grant you that but if you really believe that what he contributed today when he came on is the best he can do you need to give your head a wobble. 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weller54 Posted 3 February 2019 Share Posted 3 February 2019 He really is a poor version of Musa!! At least Musa had one attribute.. Pace. This fraud doesn't have one single attribute! Possibly the worse signing in our history on the basis of what we paid for him! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lad should have gone out on lone so that he can gain confidence and have a fresh start with us next season. Once again poor managerial skills 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were waiting for something to happen for him all last season, he came alive in the two dead rubber games at the end of the season but apart from that, all I can remember is a few quality through balls to Vardy in his time here. I've less confidence than I have in Gray that he'll amount to anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xen Posted 3 February 2019 Share Posted 3 February 2019 Worst player on the pitch by a clear mile. Barely championship standard today. Ghezzal/Okazaki/Gray etc have their faults but at least they play with some conviction. Iheanacho is doing absolutely nothing to endear himself to us fans and I think his chances here have about run out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think in a tidy team that creates chances and with a manager willing to put an arm around him and make him a regular starter he'll shine. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't see it, you could tell Kramaric had something about him, clever on the ball, remember his performance away at Arsenal where he looked a class above everyone that day. Iheanacho might poach some goals in a top class side but he won't be returning to one of those, maybe he needs a fresh start in a team that doesn't require him to be involved much. As for the arm around him Shakespeare couldn't work him out and he seemed that kind of person. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So like I said .. nowt to do with Clod ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthStandUpperTier Posted 3 February 2019 Share Posted 3 February 2019 The guy's confidence is totally shot to pieces. Part of the reason why is his fault in that he is lethargic at times. Part of it possibly the club's fault for their inability to find a role for him to play in the team. It just seems like little thought went into how we would use him before we bought him.

matty98 Posted 3 February 2019 Share Posted 3 February 2019 He's a decent finisher when he's got some confidence but everything else is shocking. He's not fast, he can't head a ball, he's not good on the ball, doesn't work hard and his movement is awful. I've had enough of him, rather have one of our youth strikers on the bench. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blanchflower78 Posted 3 February 2019 Share Posted 3 February 2019 Sadly inept and woefully short of what's required. Just offers nothing, part of the lack of game changing quality we lack from the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psychonaut Posted 3 February 2019 Share Posted 3 February 2019 His defensive header in the wrong box gave us a good laugh though. Still chuckling about it now. Having more than 2 brain cells to rub togther inside a skull might’ve helped. I honestly don’t think he’s a pea brain but when I think of this notion together with his antics today I cannot help but laugh ? Wrong fvckin box Nacho you play as striker!

The Doctor Posted 3 February 2019 Share Posted 3 February 2019 24 minutes ago, FLAN said: Someone posted it a while ago. He wasn’t even that prolific at Man City Eh? At Man city he got 1281 premier league minutes, and scored 12 from, by my maths, 51 shots (https://www.whoscored.com/Players/289253/History/Kelechi-Iheanacho - 1.1 shots per game, 46 appearances total) He was absolutely prolific at Man City. But, he had it laid on a plate for him, he could afford not to work in the build up and just poach. He's not got that talent behind him here, and he's got far more pressure on him, rather than a kid treated as a prospect he's constantly compared to Vardy and expected to hit his levels. The fans here really don't help him and it's probably best for his career he goes somewhere else, but he's not a bad player, when he believes in himself and plays in a system that suits him he's very good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_lcfc_85 Posted 3 February 2019 Share Posted 3 February 2019 Iheanacho needs a loan out to a championship club as the only option to get any form of confidence back. Problem is we're woefully short in the striking department so its difficult. Okazaki is also not the answer and he needs moving on permanently I'm afraid, not a single goal in over a year. Why we didn't get a striker in January I'll never know, just a short term loan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
