2024/25 Tim Iroegbunam

[Bedfordblue]

The only younger player we’ve got that will spend his career at the top level imo

What age is the demarcation point for being young player being as:
Tim Iroegbunam : 22
Thierno Barry : 22
Jarrad Branthwaite : 23
Carlos Alcaraz : 22

I reckon Tim will have a big season now he’s settled in. Moyes type of player.

i dunno mate he’s similar to gana

he’s not taking his place ans
we need a creative mf along side gana

All the Villa fans I knew when we signed him said he was a good player, but couldn’t get a run of games due to them being well stocked in his position. Don’t think he will ever pull up any trees, but I do think he has a higher ceiling than Garner. Hopefully he can stay fit and start to push on for us this season.

See him as more of an attacking player tbh mate.

maybe we need to see him play

 

[Haydn]

Never a Prem starter. Shouldn’t be in the squad. Based on tonight’s performance.

….appears to have everything you need to be a top player but isn’t a top player.

Maybe he'd be a top player if he was surrounded by more top players?

 

[Manx Blue]

Strong, gets around, good in the tackle but really needs to improve on his distribution but that goes for a lot of them.

…not sure, ironically loved how he played against Bournemouth for 70 mins of that 2-3 game last season, looked on the same wavelength as Ndiaye but he totally lost his way later in the game.

I think it’s more about application with him and he lacks a bit of tempo in his game, almost playing in 3rd gear. I admit to finding him difficult to gauge.

 

[Nymzee]

Still unsure on his position. When I watched him for England youth sides he was always a 6 and a bloody good one, now though watching him for us I wouldn't trust him there at all.

Not a chance. Potential is there in abundance however too sloppy in possession for me to be a DM.

Watched the game last night and was impressed with his blocks, tracking back and general athleticism. But 2nd half he just went missing and I didn't understand his role, left Gana isolated and didn't get on the ball.

Think he's a useful squad player, his energy could be used more as a second half sub when the likes of Alcarez or McNeil have run their race.

 

[PhilRegan]

Application and fitness still a massive issue . He was sliding all over the place in the second half due to not being fit enough to hold his position .

Still looks like hes figuring out where he plays at times too.
