West Ham interested in Iheanacho

[footballfan01]

I can see him leaving if he wants that playing time. Will be sad to see him go

 

[Neville Kneville]

Think we have dropped a bollock with him. He deserved far more of a crack this season. Plenty of games where he could have been brought on. Just don't think he has the characteristics Pep looks for. To let him go at this stage is crazy though.

Totally different players, but does remind me a little bit of Lukaku going to Everton. Good move for Nacho but not so sure it's great for us. He's a great 3rd strike option and would get plenty of opportunities. Sad how quickly people on here have written him off. Pep has destroyed his confidence for me. Loads of opportunities to use him and get him scoring goals yet he wasted everyone's time bringing fucking Navas on. We seemingly don't persevere with young players unless we have spent 40m on them.

The fact he is still scoring in internationals, in spite of the fact he doesn't actually play ANY meaningful football inbetween, should be screaming his potential from the fooftops.

Laughable that some clowns on here are already writing him off because he doesn't excel in his one game every 6 months.

If we have a buyback clause, then it's an ok deal if Pep knows he won't be using him, it gives us the chance to see how he develops & importantly, it gives the kid football which City have robbed from him at a crucial time in his development. There is no chance Sané, Jesus or Sterling would be the players they currently are, if they had come through with such little time playing football.

This would give him chance to try & catch up some of the football he has missed. If he succeeds wd can sign him again.

If there is no buyback, Txiki is a dick.

Or Nacho has been assessed and deemed will never be good enough.

People are getting too carried away with this buyback shit, it's not as simple as that.

There is a reason it doesn't happen too often and that is because there is the buying club as well, who generally don't want a buyback clause as it means if he turns into a player who they'd make great profit on they don't get that option.

Consequently it can result in lower sale price etc etc.

Not easy, and Txiki is certainly not a dick if there doesn't end up being one.

 

[Neville Kneville]

Then the the person who assessed him is a fucking bullshitter who wants sacking.

Nobody is good enough to make that assessment & be sure, at this stage. Nobody.

Plus Pep himself included Kelechi as one of the players who are the 'future' only about 6 months ago, so it makes him into.a pillock if he can have his judgement u turned in a few months.

Yes he is. He can sell him to someone else who will accept the clause.

Kelechi is an absolute top prospect in world football for his age. If he was scoring for Germany rather than Nigeria he would cost a fucking fortune.

Savic/Suarez/Trippier etc for us...Those bigger names are coming with our loan and sell rotating doors
De Bruyne/Lukaku/Matic for Chelsea
Pogba et al for United
Morata et al for Real Madrid

Damn those pesky people who can see exactly how a players career will pan out

I agree but it is equally as feasible that they have it right with Nacho. You and other see something that I personally don't but I'm OK if he goes/stays or returns.

Natural goal scorer and they are rare.

They also cost a lot of money so if we dont currently need him and want to sell, fine but lets at least insert a buy back clause because its easy to do and bonkers if we dont imo.
