Gareth Ainsworth has described Tommi O'Reilly as 'one hell of a player' but says the youngster needs to play in a team that dominates the ball.O'Reilly was recalled from his loan move in Shropshire by Aston Villa just three hours before Shrewsbury's derby game against Wrexham on Thursday - with the 21-year-old immediately joining League Two side MK Dons.
And when asked why O'Reilly's time in Shropshire had come to an end Ainsworth said:"Tommi is a great footballer. "Once you get that boy on the ball, he's phenomenal. We're not quite that team yet where we can dominate possession and get it into the number 10’s feet and play total football. "But he's one hell of a player. So when he goes off elsewhere and does really well, that's brilliant, but we didn't fail with him.
