Confirmed Signing Caleb Yirenkyi (1 Viewer)

[Terry_dactyl]

He's a yellow card a match kind of player for sure

Thought he might’ve got one yesterday just due to the sheer number of fouls he made.

 

[SafeAsMilk]

Gus was like that initially… that comes with experience and game time .. hes got all the attributes to be a top player for us

 

[Torquay Sky Blue]

I think the coaching staff are going to have to work very hard with him to install some discipline . As it's been said on here before , he's a red card waiting to happen.
Will need to learn quickly otherwise his reputation will lead to referees watching him very closely.

He's a competitive player, I doubt they'll want to coach that out of him tbh.

Exactly. Some of the best players play on the edge of red cards all game because they battle.

Enzo fernandez is the same, doesnt make him not a top player.

Assuming MVE is back for Newcastle, does Yirenkyi keep his place at RB or moved back into midfield?

Stays at RWB for me.

 

[wingy]

Put the fucking graphics up.

 

[SBAndy]

Yeah leave him at RWB. Only changes I’d be considering off the back of yesterday would be BTA and EMC dropping out for Cherif and one of Tchaouna/Gboho. But I get it if the team is unchanged.

 

[BackRoomRummermill]

More physical than i expected - seems to be everywhere as well

 

[Captain Dart]

KKH will be wondering whether he has much of a future here.

By the turn of the year Yirenkyi will be starting at CM and Kesler-Hayden will be starting at RWB.

Do you think he will ever be fit enough to play a run of games? He's been injured longer than he's been fit since we signed him.

 

[False9]

People seem to forget how young he is, Eccles was out on loan at this age. He looks like he's going to be a top player.

Fair. I don’t think there’s any history of injury issues, and tbh my reading of last season was that the ankle injury he picked up early in the season was far more troublesome than initially thought.

I do hope so and with Grimes on the bench

The reality is there was so much rotation in the side on Saturday that you can’t just go on the conventional description of a position but it’s clear having the running power of Yirenkyi and Onyeka gives us more energy and KKH can add to that. Yirenkyi can be the player to drop deep and collect when needed. .

 

[Cally Fedora]

The KKH injury is a weird one. Keeps being referred to as minor but keeps keeping him out. I don’t think we’ll want to play Yirenkyi there too often - he’s going to be a top notch midfielder

 

[Grendel]

By the turn of the year Yirenkyi will be starting at CM and Kesler-Hayden will be starting at RWB.

no chance of the latter

 

[SBAndy]

no chance of the latter

Talk me through your thinking.

 

[curly_tom]

I think MVE will find his feet. He hasn't been that bad, just needs to clam down a bit I think. I don't see KKH overtaking him suddenly. I think Yirenkyi only started there because the other two are injured and will revert back to CM

 

[Grendel]

Talk me through your thinking.

He hasn’t ever been ahead of MVE at all and has hardly been selected for the championship. Lampard isn’t going to ditch a player who has a 100% appearance record when fit for a guy who’s started 5 league games in the championship for us.

 

[Hutch11]

I think ultimately Caleb will play in the position best suited to him
He will be 1st choice wherever Frank thinks that is

 

[SleepyGinger]

I think eventually our Midfield will be Grimes and Yirenkyi

 

[baldy]

Talk me through your thinking.

Do you think we've only just signed MVE or something?

 

[Hutch11]

I think eventually our Midfield will be Grimes and Yirenkyi

Maybe but I would've thought Onyeka and Yirenkyi protect us better
