2024/25 Jake O'Brien

[Bluerover]

He’s been boss since coming in, no idea what Dyche was thinking refusing to play him.

One thing that’s surprised me is that he is way, way faster than I realised from his (admittedly limited) cameos under Dyche

Let's just forget Dyche ever happened to this club. We move on with new owners, Moyes back having learnt well from his experiences and a beautiful new stadium. The future is Blue

Watch him score his first goal tomorrow now .

 

[NathDogg]

Was getting him mixed up with big Jarrard, which is the highest compliment I can give him. Class again.

 

[Walken]

When he casually lobbed hojland to the deck

 

[lieneverton]

Thought he did well given he was on a (ridiculous) yellow. Didn't do anything rash.

 

[PhilEFC]

He’s a very good footballer.

 

[Eggs]

…..he’s been very good, hopefully as effective as a CB. That will be the real test.

 

[OzarkBlue]

He’s a very good footballer.

Sean D says you're wrong.

 

[Duncan’s Pigeon Loft]

He’s brilliant. Wonder if a back 3 of him Tarkowski Branthwaite is the way forward?

 

[MACCA75]

Very solid again.

 

[PhilEFC]

Sean D says you're wrong.

I stand corrected.

 

[davek]

He gets better each game.

I have to say it's amazing that when the ball comes near him I think we're safe as houses.

Frightening to think the level this lad can get to.

 

[PhilRegan]

Put him at CB Wednesday and bring Young in RB , not Keane please

 

[Lanolin]

I didn’t think he was great today to be honest, not terrible but not an overly impressive performance. He got caught sleeping with a couple of balls on his inside and gave a corner away playing a ball that he didn’t need to. It’s fine and normal, we don’t need to act like he’s not put a foot wrong since he came in.

 

[Vedder]

…..he’s been very good, hopefully as effective as a CB. That will be the real test.

The two JBs could be a super pairing.
Hopefully we can keep Jarred for next season to get to see this pairing
