Ighalo was good for Watford and was good in the very limited spell at United under Ole.

[@MisterPete3]

Just couldn't score

[@Do27gg]

His agent deserves mad credit

[@mkdisciple]

Defoe was a pretty selfish player himself 😅. Overmars was probably THE most selfish player I’ve ever seen.

[@cheesybellend6842]

Hahaha great player but definately selfish

[@debtoms1560]

Deeney Watford legend. Moved to a number 10 role from a number 9 purely cos Iggy was a single minded striker. First season back in the prem I think Iggy scored 14 goals and ditto for Troy assisting 7 of Iggy's goals. Captain Fantastic Troy Deeney.💛🖤❤️

[@abijosegun7246]

Loved the story especially cos it’s about Ighalo 🔥🇳🇬

[@gudbeatzent4665]

I tried to tell my son his goto be selfish as a striker, but he too nice like his mum 😀

[@hapexconsulting3789]

Don't teach him nonsense. Pass if there's 90-100% of scoring. Siasia did that rubbish, Westerhorf pulled him out for life.

[@gudbeatzent4665]

@@hapexconsulting3789 Sisia is not an out and out striker like yekini how many times you see him trying to pass ? Go watch his videos

[@adedejibabalola5427]

Good striker's are naturally selfish with the ball because they always believed they would score even when they see a better placed team mate. Why they don't make the easier decision, we as fans will never understand

[@dennistonrockstone]

You do understand tho you just explained it😂

[@wilfredonyambu6991]

Defoe was selfish too 😂😂 but top striker fr 💯

[@Miller2330]

At EXACTLY 2mins I needed Troy to chuck in a ‘pause’ 😂😂. That was wild. 😂😂

[@zimprince195]

😅😂

[@OnePlanetBelievers]

Bro, you're our of line 🤣🤣🤣

[@Remidy92]

🤣🤣🤣

[@pumelelabanca1442]

Its funny how he speaks about him and Ighalo only speaking once about how they would have played. Then you hear how much drogba and Lampard worked together after training and before.

[@success2471]

All strikers are selfish. As i get older I have learned to curb your natural instinct and do what's best for the team. Key word if the man is open give him the ball.

[@j.c.n9718]

He was auditioning for Manchester United 😂😂😂 The most selfish forwards I've ever watched are Son Heung Min and Mirko Vucinic.

[@immanueledeke6025]

Son and Kane?

[@Ben2bwild]

​@@immanueledeke6025Son is definitely not selfish. There are way more selfish strikers

[@dennistonrockstone]

Rashfood is the most selfish

[@ahmedgaber6836]

Mad can’t believe he forgot to mention Mido 😂

[@y1521t21b5]

1:58 As _The Boondocks_ lads would insist: *PAUSE!*

[@coolkid05]

Mata scored in the 83rd minute, not 98th.

[@philthatcher6111]

Defoe was 5 times the striker Deeney was.

[@Alorio-Gori]

Wow awesome ❤

[@mamalange2277]

Robbie kean was f'ing good

[@LJmarch]

Why are players flying from Watford to Manchester? Was he just saying or did they actually fly ?

[@NsABullitzZ]

mostly they do fly in the prem if its over a certain distance, let's them guarantee arrival times instead of hoping for no traffic. It is bad but the other option is hotel the night before which would be tough considering the schedules they have

[@LJmarch]

@NsABullitzZ makes sense, but environmentally should never be happening.

[@animashaunmutiu253]

Them this one don retire?

You both Defoe and Deeney are incredible role models for everyone especially people from B.A.M.E. Backgrounds! Love to you both. Great show

[@mediacenterman8583]

JD yes. But I don't think you know Deeney's back story. Nevertheless, two players very good players.

Wtf, Jermaine was the most selfish striker ever😅😂😂

[@obafemiadeyemi]

Ighalo is not your mate Troy. He played in Italy, China, Saudi and England.

[@hapexconsulting3789]

So? Ighalo was selfish even for Nigeria. Stop being sentimental.

[@obafemiadeyemi]

@@hapexconsulting3789 I don't understand this reply? I am backing Ighalo here. He is a better player than Troy Deeney.
