Arsenal Legend Advises Guardiola To Start Man City Talent Kelechi Iheanacho

Arsenal legend Martin Keown wants Super Eagles striker Kelechi Iheanacho to start Sunday&rsquo;s Premier League meeting between Manchester City and Arsenal at the Etihad Stadium.<br /><br />The 20-year-old had been tipped by many to replace Sergio Aguero in the starting XI after he was handed a ban, but that has not been the case, with the Nigerian talent only lasting the distance versus Celtic in an inconsequential Champions League game 12 days ago.<br /><br />&ldquo;Kelechi Iheanacho did not feature against Watford but I would start him down the middle in this system against Arsenal, &rdquo; Keown said in his column in the Daily Mail. <br /><br />&ldquo;Guardiola and Arsene Wenger have similar philosophies. This could be a very open game, but that is not what Arsenal will want.&rdquo;<br /><br />Last season, Iheanacho was an non-playing substitute at the Emirates while he was in action for 71 minutes in the reverse fixture in May.<br /><br />Igho Kingsley <br /><br />Photo Credit : mancity.com<br />
