2024/25 Tim Iroegbunam

[yorkiebarkidmark3]

this kid will be the buy of the season for me he keeps going. an he’s nowhere near the finished article we need to get rid of ginger bollocks asap and he will come on again

 

[TraffordBlue]

He's shown me more in a few games than Onana did in 2 seasons with us. It may be a bit daft to say it so early, especially as Onana has scored 2 for Villa since joining but Iroegbunam has been excellent for large parts of the 2 Home games i've seen him in.

Seems to tire in the last 15-20 though and think Dyche should have spotted that and took him off today.

 

[MACCA75]

Replacing him with Garner on about 75 mins was just so blindingly obvious, it’s unforgivable from Dyche. Everyone could see he was starting to struggle after being excellent.

Dyche the type who drops him now and we only see cameos from him unless we get injuries. Pathetic man management

Villa fan here in peace.

Like many Villans, I was sad to see Tim go but it made sense. For where we are right now it was always going to be so difficult for him to break through.

Delighted for him and for you that he's hit the ground running, though. He was always a real talent - as evidenced in his loan at QPR - and most fans were a bit surprised he didn't get more minutes at the back end of last season.

If there was one criticism we had of him, it's that it wasn't really clear what kind of CM he wanted to be - a ball winner or more box to box. Only a run of games will settle that, though.

I hope for his and your sakes that he continues to flourish and can play Everton back into some form. Your club is too prestigious for all this circling the drain.

I thought he was excellent today but showed a bit of inexperience in the closing stages. He probably could have been replaced if he was tired but also, you have to manage your own game within the team.

He was an absolute force for 75 mins though, what a player we could have on our hands.

 

[NathDogg]

Another good game. Should have been took off on 75mins when he was done in, hope it doesn’t knock his confidence.

 

[gorgeousgeorgeEFC]

The kid gives his all and that's all we can ask for.

 

[Furey1878]

Another great performance for 80 mins but he needed subbing, but that's on the manager not him.

Mate, he was absolutely goosed, physically unable to sprint back and stay with the runner - as he has been in every game he's played so far for us

Everyone in the ground could see this except for our Manager and his inner circle

For me, this is 100% on Dyche

I said that. I also thought he gave it away a couple of times a bit too easily. towards the end

Personally, from what I've seen pre-season and thus far, he hasn't yet got the engine to be a box-to-box type or a 6-8-10, in my non-professional, purely fan opinion, he'd make a great 8-10 going forward. He just needs to build up his game time, and develop more cardiovascular fitness, then I think he'll be even better!

If Sean sidelines him for Garner after yesterday's performance, it shows how blinkered, and egotistical Dyche actually is... QED see this seasons pressers...

He's definitely a more complete rounded player than Onana

He does seem to tire late on in games or has in our games he's played for us, and hopefully the more games he plays will sort that out

He will be gone in the summer, another level compared to what Onana was for us.
