Kelechi Iheanacho – Grade: C+

Kelechi Iheanacho is a solid contributor to Man City’s attack at only twenty years old. The Nigerian international has been a hard worker when called upon for most of the season, and filled in impressively when Sergio Aguero was out earlier in the season. In nine Premier League appearances for us, Kelechi has scored three times, and bagged three assists to boot. He has not started a game for City since October, so it would not be fair to say that he has been quiet as of late. He failed to take advantage of some decent chances in his substitute appearance against Chelsea this weekend, but the team’s performance was bad as a whole. He has a bright future at City and hopefully he will get more chances to start going forward this season.
