2024/25 Tim Iroegbunam

Every single midfielder we have had for about 15 years has been ran ragged away at Spurs. You are drawing way too many conclusions from one bad game in one of our hardest games of the season. This lad has ability on the ball which I haven’t seen since Arteta in our CM. People get overexcited when we have players that can actually play football rather than crabs.

Don’t think the hype is helpful for a kid who’s had less than ten premier league games and a season at championship level.

Looks a confident lad and very proficient technically. He is going to get found out taking too many risks at this level though and he is naive positionally. I’m not slating him I’m just being realistic!

The way our fan base clings onto the first midfielder who turns on the ball and builds the hype train every time is horrendous. We saw it happen with Gomes as well. Give him time, this overreaction doesn’t help when he inevitably has a tricky patch and everyone’s expecting prime Seedorf.
