I think he's doing well so far but the one real highlight from him in the U23s was his ability to drift into the box late and get shots away, I hope he can start bringing that into his game again soon because we don't score enough goals from central midfield right now.

Two goals from midfield is it this season? One from Hourihane, one from McGinn. Depends on where you counted Barkley as playing I suppose. It's not good enough anyway, the defenders have contributed more.

I feel like he is unspectacular but gets a lot right - a bit of a Gareth Barry type potentially.

Yep, with the players we have we should be looking at 10-15 goals from central midfield for the year and even with Barkley we're going to struggle to get that.

Agreed, and with a return like that, you move from mid table to properly challenging the top 4.

I've been down a YouTube rabbit hole. They both seem like thoroughly lovely fellas.


I'll post the same on the other's thread too, for the sake adhering to the Ministerial Code.

Thanks for falling down that particular rabbit hole SE - enjoyed that.

He has some talent, but he was really exposed in the second half today. I don’t think he’s up to starting games at this time.

Didn't show enough at all as a starter today imo.

Pretty disappointing that. He's had some bright 20 minute cameos this season but not enough about him to be starting prem games.

He should have been hooked well before he finally was. Shouldn't be left exposed like he was today. A season in the Championship to test him out is needed. He's a way off marking a mark at this level yet.

I'm just not sure what's meant to be the strong part of his game or even what sort of midfielder he is. Obviously, he's got something as Smith has given him a few opportunities this season.

He's a good young player who will hopefully grow into a recognisable role. As it is though, I'm not sure what that is yet.

I'm hopeful he'll kick on and be a part of the squad and find a role that suits the best parts of his game - it's great to have our own youth players come through into the first team.

Unsurprisingly, as is often the case for young players, he often looks good when the team is playing well, and a bit lost when we're playing badly.  I think that's just a lack of experience, rather than any lack of ability.

He's still only a teenager (just).  Some people are demanding 17-year-old Chukwuemeka gets a runout sooner rather than later, seemingly unaware there are also people writing off a 19 year-year-old after 20-odd premier league appearances and less than a handful of starts. Imagine if Chuk came on for a few cameos and looked - heaven forbid - 'ordinary'.

I'd like to see him get a run of games in a side in the top half of the Championship, as it's hard to 'learn' on the job at the level we need to be at, but he's shown enough for me to demonstrate he's an asset with long-term future in the game (just not yet sure how high up in the game that will be).

I don't think people are writing him off - he's getting some great experience - if now's the time to play younger players, then he's rightfully getting a run out. He's been no worse than Luiz at the moment.
