He has a rare calmness and composure for a young player. The majority of the time when a youth player is given their first few games, they seem to be overawed by the occasion and stay on the periphery of the game (scared of messing up rather than excited to make an impact).

Nacho has been very different. Always looking for the ball and expects the pass to come when he makes a run. A little overeager in his first few games as he commits a few fouls trying to get the ball. But I'd have overeagerness instead of nervousness/shyness any day of the week.

Also, very nice to hear him thanking Clichy, Sergio, Yaya, and Bony in the post-game interview. He has tons of mentors around him to continue improving immensly.

Kids gonna be a star. And he seems like a nice, humble person as well.

I was thinking that last night. For a guy in his thirties he's still got a bit of pace about him.

Manchester City starlet Iheanacho rewarded with Nigeria call-up


"I initially called up 23 players but I am adding Kelechi Iheanacho to the list immediately," Oliseh told the Nigerian Football Federation's website. "I have been following Kelechi's progress at City."

Nigeria travel to Swaziland on November 13 for the first leg of their second-round qualifying match, before hosting the return match four days later.

I thought it was funny.
But what do I know... It's six o' clock here and I've been awake for an hour all giddy, because I'm flying to Manchester in a few hours.

I've been up for 2 hours already. Ungiddily. Flying to Vegas and I never thought I'd not look forward to that.

Anyway. Phips the Clown. Funnyman in full effect.

Maybe I'm just in a shit mood but everything he posts is dickish taking the piss negative stuff. I can hear that from anyone whom I know gives a couple fucks about City.

Enjoy Manchester bro. Very jealous.

Cheers

It's not next Jan is it? Because if it is and Bony and Ian go we'll be left with an injury prone Aguero!

Not officially. He just asked to be left out of the squad in September.

It seems Ivory Coast played a qualifier match in October, but apparently he nor Bony could be selected because only players who are based in Africa were allowed to play.

Still holding out reservations on the lad hes looking class right now but with so many 1 season wonders lately in the league and Pellegrini not giving youngsters a chance since since like ever.. I am holding off getting excited right now. Still the lad looks promising.
