West Brom boss Irvine confirms Liam O'Brien loan plans

West Bromwich Albion boss Alan Irvine plans to loan out midfielder Liam O'Brien.

The youngster featured in yesterday's friendly with Hull City.

"I was very pleased with a lot of our young players who featured - Liam did particularly well and now needs first-team football," said Irvine.

"We've got more experienced players ahead of him but he's one we have to be careful with because you do not want his levels to drop. He needs first-team football."
