Confirmed Signing Tim Iroegbunam

[Billy Dean]

….i hoped he was a member of Villa’s FA Youth Cup winning team but it doesn’t look like he was. Signing young players is a sensible strategy but as with any footballers they have to be good.

He was part of Englands U19 European championship winning team in 2022

You will be calling him lazy no matter what effort he puts in

Well at least we bag a healthy profit for a “player swap” with Villa.

If it’s only twice the effort of Onana it’s nowhere enough.

All the posts I’ve seen from Villa fans seem to suggest there could be a player if he’s given game time and patience. The sort of thing we need to do our current position.

Bit of a strange one. Villa fans seem quite happy with this

If he requires time and patience he needs to be advised to avoid Everton like the plague.
Time and patience is one thing we don’t grant freely.

he’s clearly his replacement

Not imo he wont we have two cm at the club can see him being in bench as rotation alot similar to chermitti. Would expect the club to be looking for another cm aswell, is a link to Vranckx from wolfsburg who was linked last season. Is hopefully a good deal for both clubs villa because 10 mill for an academy player is pure profit and us because have got a player in before he shows more potential and his price goes higher.

Why is this reading as though he has signed? We don’t have an owner!

Because we’re in advanced talks to sign him

Irnbruman? Sounds Scottish.

The gap isn’t that big imo. We have the better defence.

JB says bye

10 mill for someone who doesn’t play

 

[Melchizedek]

Only genius’s can pronounce his 2nd name without collapsing and foaming at the mouth

I believe its pronounced Iroegbunam

I believe its pronounced Iroegbunam

He remains an Everton player at the moment. I won’t be shocked if he remains an Everton player next season. There is no guarantee of any transfer imo.

10 mil gets you nothing nowadays. He's young, English and has potential with resale value.

Personally I like this approach.
