Many fans were less than enthusiastic about the 30-year-old’s arrival at the club and had hoped for a bigger named striker signing in the January window. However, his performances to date and his clear enthusiasm and passion at playing for the club he has supported all his life has endeared him to fans in a short space of time.
Ighalo could be quickly becoming a cult hero at Old Trafford.
He is also winning over the press. ESPN’s Rob Dawson has called for Ighalo to start in the Manchester derby on Sunday, saying ‘he’s had chances in every game he’s played. Not always the case with Martial’. The Evening Standard’s James Robson is also a fan, saying ‘Ighalo is highly unlikely to earn a permanent move to United – but he already looks like a really astute short-term signing.’
He probably won't but there's a case for Ighalo to start against Man City on Sunday. He's had chances in every game he's played. Not always the case with Martial.

Ighalo is highly unlikely to earn a permanent move to United – but he already looks like a really astute short-term signing. And one that points the way to the type of striker they need in the summer #mufc pic.twitter.com/s6WF8EQAEW

Since Ighalo’s arrival, United have scored 15 goals in 6 games and manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer believes that the improvement should be credited to the Nigerian. ‘It’s a combination maybe, but [the improvement is due] maybe more him than us. That type of striker is vital for the team’ the manager said at Thursday’s post-match press conference.
‘I’ve got no doubt he’ll only get better and better.’
