Kelechi Iheanacho

No need for either to play wide.
442 with Ian as 9 and Kun as 10. Fun plays 10 anyway (false 9) so it would make little difference for him.

I wouldn't like to see a 4-4-2 away at Madrid.

No more difficult than it would be for Sterling or Delph. Kid has Moxy. He'd handle it like a pro.

I agree. I was thinking more of next season.

Against RM we need both Fernandos and another in the centre.

Kid still needs to learn how to keep proper possession of the ball and stop giving freebies away. Now, i'm his biggest fan , but i don't think he's ready for a semi-final in the Champions league, where there is zero margin for error. If he were to play, i would make sure to instruct him to stay around the Madrid's 18 yard box, so at least we can utilize this scoring ability to get points on the board. But anything else would be exponentially more difficult for him at this stage in his development. Hope i am wrong though.

My thoughts too. I like the kid but he looked a bit overawed in the first leg. Going to be a big ask to start him in a game of this magnitude.

is that one of them scousers that jumped up in disabled section when they scored against Dortmund

Not sure this one has been posted yet. A bit optimistic on Kelechi's trajectory, but I tend to agree with most of the writer's views.

Let the kid find his right foot first, do it in a big game then I'll start to take notice of the hype and believe in him.
Goal scorer, yes. Top footballer, not so sure yet
Not a patch on Sturridge at his age

Sturridge still hasn't found his right foot. Even Messi only finds his occasionally. It hasn't held either of them back.

Kelechi's always made to play behind Aguero despite not having that great of technical ability. Would actually love to see the reverse.

How you feeling about that after last night?
