People are so impressed with his double training etc., meanwhile I am pissing my pants that he will injure himself in 20th min given our record with over-training and injuries.

I have no idea about the level of the Chinese league, but MSL is atrocious. I lived 6 months in San Francisco and watched a few matches. Most of the matches I watched were played in the middle of the summer, but the pace and quality was really poor. I would say the quality might be on par with the Norwegian premier league, but the pace was slower. MSL might have improved since then though...

MLS not MSL and the level of play is approximately mid-table League 1, but better than China by far.

I think it’ll be a mistake to start the Nigerian Heskey vs Chelsea.

Let Martial start again but with the threat that Heskey will come on if he’s shit again

This doesn’t paint you in a great light.

Bestiality a slippery slope into racism?
I just thought of the most goal shy PL Striker I can remember.

if the only connection you see is the similarity of the colour of their skin, then I think you’re the one with the racial issue. You disappoint me.

You too @sglowrider
@TheReligion - yup, Ighalo couldn’t hit a barn door in his second season, like Heskey.
@fps why?
@Annihilate Now! - that’s a sick thing to say

I really don’t get you lot. Grow up

To be fair Heskey is more memorable as a striker that couldn't score than most of those.

Such a pile of BS. So many strikers you could have picked but you picked Heskey. A player who 1) actually played at for a big team and 2) had a different playing style.

The only coincidence is they're both black strikers.

It looks like you actually don't get many things.

What's the link between Ighalo and Heskey in the goalscoring charts? Can't see it.

Here's me thinking we're having a nice chat about what he'll bring to the team.

I don't think he'll start, but I think he'll get minutes, for sure.

Ighalo isn't goal shy though, he scored 39 in 99 in the Premier League for Watford, so that's obviously not the reason for the comparison

What does he have in common with Heskey, other than being black and playing up front? They are not similar players.

12 goals 3 assists all competitions. Guys going to tear it up for us the rest of the year. Numbers won’t be sustainable though.

Missed his chance but at least he was in the right place and made the right run

Looked tidy enough on the ball other than that. Good to get his debut out of the way

This missed chance will haunt him in his dreams. He would me the happiest man alive if he had scored

Such a shame he couldn’t stick it away. Would have been such a massive confidence boost for him.

Looks a unit who will be a handful for defenders. Manhandled Rudiger of all people. Hold up play looks decent as well.
