Kelechi Iheanacho

[cleavers]

Players seem to get unusual attachments to shirt numbers. Why does Yaya wear 42 for example? Ali Benarbia had the 44 shirt when he was at City. Maybe Iheanacho has some sort of affinity with the number 72? Or maybe he doesn't and it'll be changed soon.

7+2=9 maybe that's why he chose it ?

Telegraph: Pellegrini will use 18-year-old Kelechi Iheanacho and Sterling as cover for Aguero and Bony in the striker role this season.
-----------------

So now that it's becoming apparent that Kelechi is playing for the first team this season, can we move this thread to the main forum?

I tweeted city yesterday regarding shirt number as im thinking about him for the back of mine, got no reply, i wouldn't be surprised if he got number 9

The strange thing is online there's no option to pick Denayer , Lopes , Roberts or Iheanacho on the back

No sign of him on the official fantasy football game either! What the f is wrong with you guys!!!!

Would be good to see him get 15+ competitive appearances this year.

Would be good to see him get 15+ competitive appearances this year.

He should exceed that by quite a bit.

We've got an African superstar,
Iheanacho,
Stick with City and you'll go far,
Iheanacho,
With a title here,
some other silverware,
scoring goals with both his feet and some from in the air,
Super Eagles Superstar,
Iheanacho.

Whooooooah he's magic...you know
Super Iheanacho

We'll see. All depends on the form/injuries of Aguero and Bony.

On another note, what a load of shite this article is from Goal. Basically tipping Kelechi to be a disappointment for Nigeria and MCFC for trying to mould him into something he's not.
