Do think we should try and hold onto him next season. Good option as a backup, and gives us something different to our other strikers
We could sign him on a short deali hate this signing. But not for the reasons you might think.
Ighalo has exceeded expectations. So far so good.
But he's just so bloody happy and proud to be here, it's like when we let him go when the season ends, it'll be like punching a 6 month old puppy that loves you to the moon and back in the face with a knife. I can't do it.

If he plays how he currently is, he wont be going back.i hate this signing. But not for the reasons you might think.

It'll be until the end of the season, if that contract end date is 1st June, I'm sure we'll be able to extend it given the circumstances.Does anyone know for sure when Ighalo's deal runs out?
If the league ends up being suspended until after the peak of the coronavirus outbreak, which the Government says is three months away, will he still be able to play for us?
What if Shanghai are playing again by then and want Ighalo back for their games? He's their player. We can't force them to extend the agreement.It'll be until the end of the season, if that contract end date is 1st June, I'm sure we'll be able to extend it given the circumstances.
We have a contract in place with them until the end of 'our' season, so I'm sure we'll be able to settle that with them.What if Shanghai are playing again by then and want Ighalo back for their games? He's their player. We can't force them to extend the agreement.
Transfermarkt says 30th June. With it being an issue affecting so many clubs, I think FIFA will allow teams to extend these contracts for a few more months but I imagine there'd need to be the approval of both the club and player (along with the parent club if the player is on loan).Does anyone know for sure when Ighalo's deal runs out?

Ighalo directed his agent to accept a pay cut if it meant going to United. Chinese money is stupid and everyone knows it, but it comes with the price of playing in a sub-par league that no one outside China really watches. Ighalo would make good money, I dare say at least the 100k/wk he gets now from us, if they were to offer him a full contract. But it's the opposite of China - it's a league that everyone watches and the money is slightly less stupid.Ighalo had to take a pay cut to join us. It is not fair to him. The club should compensate him now that it proves he is a very good addition to the squad.
It would, but he’d be remembered very very fondly. We’ve won every game he’s took part in haven’t we? He’s been better than Larsson was, who is regarded highly.He may have played his last game.
If the season gets scrapped and we dont keep him then that's him done.
That would be unfortunate
I do not think he is good enough to lead the line in any big clubs. In a smaller club he would not have the service either. At United it is ideal for him because he is not the number 1 striker but a back up squad player who brings something else no one at United right now has. This is why he is good right now. He gets the service and he also knows that he is a squad player and he is not selfish and try to play a team game. I still would like to see him and Martial play together up front. I think Martial dropping deep and Odion up front would be a very good combination.Ighalo really is full of quality. So much so, in fact, that it surprises me that he hasn't had a more storied career. His finishing is great, his hold up is great, his one touch is really top notch, he's good on the ball and is difficult to dispossess. When you watch him you wonder how he hasn't played for bigger clubs much earlier in his career. Now, I suppose China explains part of that, what with being paid a king's ransom over there, but still, I think he's better than what his career has suggested.
What’s not to love about this guy.
This guy genuinely loves United.

Apart from juggling the ball like Ronaldinho and smacking it in the top corner...I don't think he's anything special, however thats kind of what we need right now, a guy that offers something different to what we have, but has a love for the club and you just know wouldn't mind being the backup option and won't hold back the likes of Greenwood. I was like what the hell kind of signing is this when we got him, but if the price is right, and I think £15mill is in this market, this has to be a no brainer if he carries on doing well for us.
Special goal, but what's he done his entire career?Apart from juggling the ball like Ronaldinho and smacking it in the top corner...
Made tons and tons of money..Special goal, but what's he done his entire career?
In the era of player power I think this is 5 mil too highTweet
