Iheanacho needs to be starting games

[Biast]

The last 2 games he has started up top with Aguero have seen a 3-0 and a 4-0 win, looked great going forward both times which is totally the opposite of today.

Surely a start v Everton on Wednesday is a given obvious tactic?

Last season most were complaining about Pellegrini being stubborn and sticking with a 4-4-2, now all of a sudden it is the answer to our problems. We started the season on fire playing with Aguero up front on his own so it certainly can work.

I don't think it's the answer to our problems. I say so long as we're conceding anyway, we might as well try a new strategy of outscoring our opposition away from home. At home we seem to have less of a problem with this, so maybe one striker at home if Pellegrini wants.

The only bad thing to do here is keep trying something that isn't getting results. Two midfielders, 3, 4, 7, it doesn't seem to matter. Whatever tiny defensive advantage we've gained is greatly offset by the fact that our production goes way down. Our defending is so laughable, what other options do we have?

He does need to be starting with Aguero.

 

[NewHavenCTBlue]

Him not starting and seeing Yaya, silva and KDB starting is the exact reason pellegrini will be out and not soon enough.

 

[Dax777]

I seriously don't think he even considers him for league matches and I doubt he ever will. He's young and his transfer fee wasn't high enough, regardless of results he'll keep running Bony out there.

Until he doesn't. Then you'd just move on to the next reason why you hate him.

Iheanachos Minutes across the season -



It's blindingly obvious he's a 19 year old being gradually introduced into the first team and being managed properly.

Shhhhhhh! The dumb manager doesn't know what he is doing. That's the narrative here. Why spoil that with facts and common sense.

This argument bur in reverse was pointed to these same folks last year about the 442. They couldn't stand it. Now it's all they want. Laughabl, really.

 

[Dax777]

That's not really true though. Delph started over the more expensive Fernando and Fernandinho. Navas started over Sterling despite Sterling being the more expensive player with the higher profile reputation.

Stop with your facts mate. You are getting in the way of a fine fantasy with all this common sense.

 

[SWP's back]

BBC say 72 minutes which gives him 18 minutes and 4 minutes of extra time - 22.

Keep digging.
