Ighalo, has scored 14 goals this season for Watford in the English Premiership, but for 13 games going, he has been hit by a goal drought, which has also affected the fortunes of Watford. “I am not worried about Ighalo’s recent lack of scoring goals for his club,” Siasia told Goal.com in Abuja. “I have been in constant touch with the player and I know that he would deliver against Egypt home and away. “I can assure you that Odion is desperate to deliver against Egypt because he knows the importance of the two matches and he told me.” Ighalo on his path vowed to work harder to regain his lost form. “I won’t allow this [his goal drought] to put me down, it happens to all strikers, but I know the goals will soon start coming. I will continue to work hard and it will be a matter of time before I am scoring again,” “The second half of the season is often more difficult, but we will get 40 points as we already have 36 points and we still have nine games to go. We have had some bad results in the last two, three games.” He added that the game against Egypt will not be a tea party. “It won’t be an easy game, I won’t lie,” he added. “But it is possible to win, we have what it takes to win, we will fight for the whole game to win. “I have worked with Siasia in the U-20 and U-23 teams, he is a disciplinarian and knows what he wants. He will play an attacking football and we have to give him our best. I will give him 100%.”
