Hope we sign him up. Exactly what we needed.

He's showing maturity as a center forward. His movement, timing to pass, and when to hold the ball. His finishing is only decent, but he brings so much more. He really reminds me of Larsson's time here. And what I expect a fit Mandzukic would be with us.

He's also on a perfect age to our striking force. He can give at least 3 years as cover for Martial, and to bridge the gap until Greenwood is ready to be Martial cover.

Love this guy and he's practically living out my dream. Boyhood United fans bagging goals for the club he supported as a kid. And you can tell he would die for the shirt!

 

[Martialfc]

Don’t care what anyone says he’s better than Lukaku. I like his touch, control and how he uses his body well. Made up for him every time he scores and he seems like a great humble guy. Things are looking up and thank god we got rid of Lukaku!

His style of play and ability is much easier on the eyes than Lukaku. That guy was painful to watch most times.

 

[Tarrou]

completely won me over and I think we should sign him, and I reckon Ole will think that way too

we've basically lucked out here, just got whatever striker we could in the last hours but found a gem

loves the club, took a pay-cut, and is performing very very well

we should sign him and allocate the money we save to other areas

 

[Foxbatt]

He brings a different dimension. CBs are only worried about the pace of Martial and his trickery. They know when the ball is in the air, they are supreme. With Ighalo they are not sure what he will do. They cannot bully him and he is good enough to worry them with his control and pace. I really wish Ole would go two up front with Ighalo and Martial with Martial dropping deep and Ighalo staying up front.

 

[MyDevil]

Hope this is not his last match for us. Please sign him permanently. How can we pass on a player who will do everything for the chance to wear Man Utd shirt?

 

[meamth]

Want to start a petition for a word "prince"to be added next to the world" Nigerian".

If Cantona is the french king, this guy should be the Nigerian king.

 

[BluesJr]

Sign.

 

[sglowrider]

Took his goal superbly, i gave him motm. Always a threat up front. At one stage he flat out sprinted 80 yds chasing back a counter attack. Impressed.

I am guessing that this is what they mean by ''wanting to play for the badge'?

 

[sglowrider]

I think Ighalo is a prime example for United fans not to shoot their mouths off without having seen a player, or letting a player settle before making their opinions known.

They should have realised by now that the coaching, scouting staffs know a tad more about football than those keyboard warriors.

 

[Dr. Dwayne]

He starts, he scores.

100 times better than lukaku who is nothing but a predend no. 9. Everytime Ighalo gets the ball inside or near the box I get a feeling of goal coming, the feeling last I had with RVN.

 

[amolbhatia50k]

Great signing. We’d be mad not to sign him as a squad option.

Depends on the wages. Isn't he in an enormous contract in China? I don't think we should be signing a 30 year squad player on huge wages even though he's been really good. Maybe given he's a fan he'd be willing to take a cut?

 

[SAFMUTD]

If we can agree a deal that involves a reasonable fee and wages we should definately sign him. Its a shame that because of the virus we didnt have much matches to prove his worth but I believe him when he says he's a fan and he has good qualities to play as a 9, so as long as the money is correct I think its a no brainer.

H. Larsson route

Odion Eagleo

sorry had to, his goal and movements are eaglelike to my eyes.

 

[roonster09]

It was more of a critique of Ed rather than Ighalo himself, but I'm definitely guilty. The guy has been performing admirably so far, and what a goal tonight!

Yeah I get the criticism for Ed but the way people went on and on as if it's a big scam, like his agent is business partner of Ole's agent, how he is some 27th in goal scoring charts in China, posting the same nonsense everyday without even waiting for him to show what he is capable of and it was a low risk loan signing.

Tbh my post was for few people who twists everything and blame Ole for it.

 

[Jibbs]

What an smazing signing he's proved to be... he plays with his heart and it shows. The way he is utilizing his strength and experience and long may it continue, we probably wouldn't need to sign a new striker.

 

[tenpoless]

He's a daywalker. Like Blade. Agile and strong.

 

[RedCurry]

Why not just try to extend his loan instead of a permanent deal? A full season with the squad can tell us a lot.

 

[roonster09]

Impressive work rate.

 

[Ali Dia]

hes been a great signing. another indication of our improving recruitment or a fluke?

very happy for him. this might be the last game he ever plays for us, if so, cheers man! looks at least a PL level player still and a good option tatically. i much prefer watching him than the sulking and out of shape lukaku pointing into space and throwing his hands in the air

Wow. All that without a full-stop! You are the Fred of the Caf. Non-stop

he already took a pay cut to join on loan. Either way who cares what he earns, the guy clearly loves utd and will give it his all whether he's paid 40k a week or 150k a week. I can't begrudge a man from earning more as long as he puts the effort in (which he evidently will imo)

Fluke. As they always say, it's just the fifth time lucky.

Ole Out.

 

[Castia]

We laughed when he signed but it’s starting to look like a very good piece of business. Sign him up.

oles won me back around. i like his signings and hes not jose.

 

[SpyLuke10]

Too much. I think £300k a week.

Pretty sure its 100k pounds a week. It was 300k pounds a week at the Chinese club but he took a pay cut coming to United.

 

[SAFMUTD]

Wow. All that without a full-stop! You are the Fred of the Caf. Non-stop

 

[Tarrou]

Paul Ince in being a bit of a twat shocker

‘It reminds me of one of those goals you try in training. If it’s a full house, I don’t know. ‘Maybe I’m doing a disservice to him, but I don’t know…’

 

[Mainoldo]

Pretty sure its 100k pounds a week. It was 300k pounds a week at the Chinese club but he took a pay cut coming to United.

How can he take a pay cut when he’s not our player? This is why it’s £300k a week.

 

[Bobcat]

If hes happy to play a part time role (as it seems he is) sign him the feck up

Probably wont play when everyone is fit, but holy shit hes a good backup option

 

[Eleven-Eighteen]

what's with the comments saying this could be his last game for us? corona virus?

 

[Eleven-Eighteen]

i think he wants to stay at United. has said and done all the right things on and off the pitch. knowing that he comes from a very humble background, the money must mean a lot to him. so as long as signing for United doesn't mean a 50% or higher pay cut, then my gut tells me he'll join if we give him the option

 

[roonster09]

You can take paycut even when it's just loan deal. ManUtd pay percentage of wages and the rest all he won't get it from his parent club.

 

[Heardy]

Yeah - people assuming the season will be cancelled/delayed.

Nah we can't afford to pay squad players anything. That's not how a club is run (well at least). Hopefully he accepts a lower wage. He's played his role perfectly so far.
