OutByEaster? Posted April 24, 2022 Moderator Share Posted April 24, 2022 Can we keep this to Iroegbunam please - there are threads for our other prospects. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWARLEY2 Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 The big difference between Carney and Tim is that you could say Carney is a luxury type player while Tim is not. Carney is probably more talented but Tim is that type of player you can trust more. He is far quicker than Carney. He is a far better tackler . And better in the air than Carney. And a really good passer. And for at least the next few years or probably 10 Tim is the type of player we need more than Carney. I think that we might well lose Carney and it will be a damn shame as he has been with us since 11 years old. But the Baggies lost Tim last year and he had been with them since 8 years old. When we look back in 5 years time i think that we will not be that unhappy about how it all turned out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our current young players are probably the best group I’ve seen but at the same time, I don’t want to put too much pressure on them Fair enough, I do need to see more of him.

Villa_Vids Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 I liked the cameo. Do you think he will get a start in the coming games? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wpuld be tempted to start him against Norwicb. It is next season where we are going to see more and more of our kids. The 5 subs rule is going to be to our advantage in giving them first team experience . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Tim gave us better balance in the midfield when he came on, he had a presence and covered space really well (albeit it was only for a few minutes). I do not think he will start against Norwich though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree on Tim but he is going to need a lot of minutes before judgement on where he is in senior football. Edited April 25, 2022 by paul514 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just checked and we got him from Northampton in the summer of 2016.. i think with Tim you can just see he is going to be good. Barely injured, extremely quick over short bursts and he glides across the grass over longer distances. And really good technical ability . You just know sometimes don't you. . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 I would much prefer to let Tim develop over next 2 seasons maybe in rotation with Nakamba than splash out big money on a player who is less talented 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dante_Lockhart Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 He's 18. He didn't look out of his depth against Leicester. He was composed and gave us better shape. Fecking start him and push Luiz up the field with Ramsay 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CVByrne Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Deserves a loan to Championship next season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HalfTimePost Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 7 minutes ago, CVByrne said: Deserves a loan to Championship next season. Nah he'll be around the first team. If he wasn't ready for the Prem he'd have been on loan in January once the coaches had had chance to have a look at him following his move. He also could've just stayed with Baggies and been playing all this season in the Championship. He's our one to show Chuk what happens when you commit (and to the others) if you then send him out on loan it just proves everything Carney believes about the club and why it's better to move on. More would follow (Bidace for a start). He's ready for the Prem and it's right for the club that he does 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted April 25, 2022 Author Share Posted April 25, 2022 He's the same age as Barry, if he was to go on loan to the championship next season I doubt Chukwuemeka or any of our other youngsters would read anything negative into it, probably the opposite in fact, because if you're nineteen as Iroegbunam will be next season and already good enough to be wanted on loan by championship clubs, then you're doing very well and the club you are at has also done well with your development and to get you a loan to a level as high as the championship, if Chukwuemeka was to sign a contract, I'm sure he himself would be more than happy to go on loan to a championship team next season. No shame in going to the champioship as a teenager, or even in early twenties, Mount, Abraham, Gallagher, Guehi, Skipp, Garner and others all done it, Archer doing it at the moment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sulberto21 Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Not every player needs a loan. Iroegbunam looks special. In fact Stevie G himself didn’t go on loan so this notion that everyone has to go on loan is not set in stone. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MWARLEY2 Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 For all of us who thought our Tim was a dm all his life , see this goal from him and think again. This was last season. He has grown a fair bit since . Brilliant finish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
