Fvck! All you Kelechi haters(and you know who you are) stick that in your pipe and smoke it.

I've been massively critical of him and I would argue justifiably so.

He's been reactive rather than proactive and often pretty garbage in so many areas.

That performance though was the standard I hope he can repeat regularly.

Credit where it's due.

 

PS Interviewed him afterwards, too. Very softly spoken lad.

Did you tell him all that?

Everyone has their opinions and this is entertainment first and foremost.

I guess one of the many upsides to following a progressive and positive thinking manager is Rodgers belief in others abilities and trying to get the absolute best out of each one.

Taking the desire that he builds in those players and turning it into a team.  A team with the ability to punch above its weight.

Watching that wonderful intention move from club to club working its magic with players is my entertainment. That and being right of course.:)

I hope Iheanacho is just getting started.

Brilliant today, the high horsers love moaning when others moan about one bad game so the same has to be said when a player has a good one - it’s just one game. Hopefully this saves his career here and he really kicks on

He seemed to have lost some weight and looked a lot faster off the mark. 

 

BR has told him to stay out of the gym for sure...

 

He will never be the quickest but his workrate and movement are massively improved.

Brilliant effort today from Kel, I think BR will have more confidence in his ability to contribute now. The next 3 are all ones where we might choose to go 2 up top, if we are chasing a goal.

 

First Grey, now this. Our squad looks better and better.

There is no bigger testament to Rodgers' reign here so far than the fact Iheanacho has now come up trumps like that in a game we absolutely didn't show up in. Iheanacho as a signing has been so poor so far it was bordering on joke figure. I don't know what he's done with him, or said to him, but he looked a totally different player today - confident, hard-working, selfless, and the finish was that of a natural scorer.

 

I've thought ever since we signed him that he's never really had any kind of 'moment' for us. With each passing cameo he had it just seemed to be yet another nail into his coffin here. That earlier was his moment. Without him on the pitch we don't win that. Absolutely delighted for him and really hope that this is what turns it around here.

 

It just sums up the positivity about this club and team at the minute.

He was a game changer yesterday, no doubt. Can he run around like that for 90 mins, personally Im not sure. I feel for him though as there really is only one spot up for grabs for him which is Vardys. Yes he may now get the nod to be a supersub but I cant see any type of regular system that sees both Kelechi and Vards starting and that in a nutshell is the problem for Kelechi. He will always struggle to get into the rhythm an FC needs to be in to get into form but hopefully he can still contribute enough this season.

For me Nacho like Gray has shown he has ability, it's about application.

 

Looked a totally different player, looked sharper, quicker, better touch.

 

Nice to see players standing up and being counted.

Brilliant to see the players giving Kelechi so much love in the dressing-room after the match.

He's very much a confidence player, and yesterday will have done him the world of good.

He's attracted some justified criticism since he's been here, but most of us, I think, have always felt there's a player in there somewhere.

Brendan's ability to bring this out and to keep people like him and Demarai on board and at the top of their game even though they're not regular starters is mightily impressive.

A bit like Martin O'Neill he clearly has the ability to instil self-belief and absolute confidence in his men.

By the way, just looked at the table again and it struck me that Man City might be the new Tottenham - third in a two-horse race!

Scored in every game he's played in this season then! 

Can’t ask for more.

Chuffed for him.

Pisses me off when people boo their own players.

How is that helping your own team?

Piece of crap is how you talk about a truly horrible person. He's just a footballer out of form. Tone your language down.

Save that language for the politics thread....:whistle:

Totally agree :D 

If he makes this type of performance a regular thing, would you like to retain his services and not sign a new striker in Jan? :ph34r:

It’d almost feel like we’ve added to squad.

Good thing Gray was sick or Rodgers likely wouldn't have even named Kelechi to the squad.  Best player on the pitch for the last half-hour, no doubt.  A scintillating performance that has to give the lad a real confidence boost.
