That hold up that the end was pivotal, indirectly helped create the 2nd

Hasn't put a foot wrong since being here.
Touch, hold up play was sensational. If he is ok with less gametime definitely has a role for us in the squad.
I love this man!
Lukaku would never do what Ighalo did for us.
He really hasn’t. Doesn’t look out of place in the team at all.
Ighalo was unbelievable in that cameo holy shit. Like he did everything perfectly..
What a loan January signing. His ability really suits his role, his strength & his hold up play very good especially when Martial is tired and need to be subbed off, neither Rashford & James have the ability to hold up play like striker does.
Was really impressed by Ighalo against City. Their back line could not cope with the physical presence he has. Also his first touch was superb. When they were piling on the pressure our defenders could go long knowing he would kill the ball, rather than letting it bounce off him and come back (*koff, koff* Lukaku). It may well have been a panic move to bring him in on loan but its really showing its value.
We finally got the Ighalo roll or whatever it’s called! Class
That touch after de Gea's kick is gif worthy. Excellent cameo.
His hold up play helped loads today. Gave us an outlet when we were under the cosh.
Hes fecking immense. We haven't had a player since zlatan who could have held the ball up and played in the way he did in the build up to the 2nd goal
There's definitely a place for him at this club.
I was really underwhelmed by this transfer, but he has proven me wrong at every turn.
Great cameo

I was giddy as feck about our January window, but even I didn't expect this level of improvement. Both Ighalo and obviously Fernandes have added so much to the squad.
Swapping two squad "meh" at best fullbacks (Rojo, Young) for this forward and Bruno was amazing work.

Love him. Ice cold as well.
Gives us great options to play against the park the bus sides. Would be great to see Martial/Ighalo/Greenwood ahead of Fernandes in those games.
Doing exactly what he was brought in for. He was immense, even if it was just 10 minutes. It sounds weird but once he came on, I never felt we’d lose. Good sub by Ole.
I definitely wouldn’t be against him staying.
That small bit of hold up play was MONUMENTAL
Looked good right at the end there. Can we keep him and send Sanchez the other way in the summer?
What a sub. Only played 8min but he was so impressive in everything he did.
He's a menace to anyone who thinks they can bully him. He hasnt put a foot wrong since he walked through the doors at Old Trafford. He proper player.
Impressive cameo.
Can we get a few clips of him bullying their players 
Holding it up brilliantly. Did exactly what he was brought on for.

New super sub!

What a cameo. Bought so much composure in the final minutes. First touch and hold up play is first class.
Way better than i expected, hold up play is fantastic. What a pity that he didn't score this chance vs Everton however he is a fantastic signing for the circumstances.
I’ll be honest Im not adverse to the idea of him sticking around next season as backup for Rashford.
Wonderful cameo from him.
His composure and hold up play at the end of the game was pivotal to us winning that one by 2 goals
Outstanding when he came on, just what was needed, really proving people wrong, delighted for him.
As a left winger then?
Ajegunle in this biatch.
What a nice surprise after heading to China for a quick buck.
He still got it and he's not slowing us down at all.

Brilliant hold up play when he came on. Settled my nerves nicely whenever he got the ball.
Can we have a gif of the Ighalo roll at the right touchline? Completely sold the City player right there
