If it makes you feel better, I wrote the exact same post but then checked the two figures again as it made no sense to me why the post had so many likes.

I agree that he has looked a good player in the bits that I have seen. So has Pereira though! Have you watched enough of either of them to properly appraise their defensive contributions??

Your probably right but he needs to be aware of it himself and at times make some adjustments to still be able to shoot, because his shooting was terrific.

Annoying Lyon effectively used the money we gave them for Traore to sign him on a permanent from Milan. Just scored again for Brazil. was crap at Milan and they were happy to get him out the door Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess someone like Riqui Puig could be an option to ESR, and Koemann apparently dislikes him for whatever reason. But he's tiny so would cause an outrage here. Todibo and Firpo have already gone and most the rest are pretty unrealistic for different reasons. the Barcelona Carles Gil, the media and fans have built him up as some saviour but he isnt really that good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From Googling, he seems to be their most exciting academy prospect. Example quotes: He said: “Tim Iroegbunam is one to watch in midfield going forward, the club are really excited by him and I can see why. “He’s only 18 but he’s been playing in the 23s for Deon Burton this season.” said Chapman. “Tim is Albion’s number 8, a real box-to-box player and he carries the ball really well. “He has an eye for goal too with two goals and an assist in four games in the FA Youth Cup. “In short, you can see why the club like the look of him and understand their hopes that he can go on to achieving at least a first team look in the future.” (Link: https://birminghameastside.com/iroegbunam-the-man-to-watch-for-villa-showdown/) Albion fans will be hoping that history does not repeat itself, however, as the next generation of future stars begins to appear. Rico Richards (below), Zac Ashworth and Jovan Malcom have impressed with the club’s youth teams this season but an 18-year-old midfielder could perhaps be the best of the lot; the diamond in West Brom’s treasure chest. The Birmingham Mail reports that Iroegbunam has been a regular fixture in the U23 side this season. West Brom, meanwhile, are delighted by the progress he has made recently. Iroegbunam has produced four goals and four assists from a nominally defensive midfield role. If West Brom join Sheffield United in being relegated from the Premier League, the Baggies could be tempted to throw a couple of untested youngsters in at the deep end as they prepare their squad for a return to the Championship. (Link: https://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2021/04/29/report-west-brom-very-excited-about-18-year-old-think-hes-made-brilliant-progress/) - I've basically pasted the whole article here though, nothing to it other than that.

I would Love to have him with us....but I have to be honest Barry, Jude Bellingham would be my first choice of any young player....fabulous player, like a Duncan Edwards, in terms of physical specimen and can play anywhere.

Clever operation they have running down there. Selling their best players? Clever for Brighton, perhaps. Definitely not a model we should be looking at with envy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
