2024/25 Jake O'Brien

[Bkk Andy]

It might be unpleasant reading but let's not pretend that Young wasn't one of our best players this season pre-Moyes. However, JOB's done really well since being given a chance and needs to play from now on.

It's a benefit that were now using young how he should of been used.

Young is use full to see our last 20 minutes with his experience & is an option to come on for a number of positions.

Feel like his role now is what he was actually brought in for

Who’d have thought removing a 40 year old clunk from the team would have a positive impact. Mind boggling.

It's not unpleasant it's the truth

Your hero Dyche didn’t seem to rate him and preferred playing a rb that I’m pretty sure served in the Second World War

He display him. He played him at CB and rightly saw he was too raw for that position at this stage of his PL career.

Moyes has correctly played him at RB instead and he's capable of that without being exposed to making a fata error at the heart of defence.

 

[sanctioned]

young was good because we defending to accomodate him. Stayed back and didn't contribute enough.

Think his effect was overstated, limited us while making it work for him. should have been making it work for Jake instead, as Moyes is doing.

Other way round surely: O'Brien doesn't get forward but Young would more if played at RB under Moyes.

 

[Kendal]

It suits Young coming off the bench at his age and is an asset now.

 

[Zatara]

If Branthwaite is rated at £75mil++ then to my eyes, O'Brien on initial viewings for us doesnt seem to far off that -- ignoring the 'England international' factor.

Looks an absolute bargain so far.

Would be good to see Gana played in the same way over next couple of years

Being fata in the heart area is always a danger mate tbf.

 

[EFC_FRANCIS]

Apologies, we got it massively wrong.

moyes is probably phasing young out

I like the kid. He competes.
