2025/26 Jake O'Brien


Given him a free ride because he's playing out of position but he's been so poor this season. Remember Lescott playing at left back, and he was obviously out of position, but right in the face of the opposition. O'Brien looks lost out there.
Lescott had Jagielka and Yobo centre back who both had great recovery pace so getting forward wasn’t as much of a risk. O’Brien looked a lot better right back with Branthwaite in the team last year and even then he’s clearly more a centre back.

I know I'm being harsh because he's out of position but it's frustrating to see him struggle week in week out. I wish he'd play on the front foot more defensively. Get in the face of the opposition.

It is frustrating. I’d go as far as to say a proper top right back who’s comfortable going forward is more important than a striker. And that’s saying something.
 
Play with Keane - drop Tarks ....get a young fullback in from the under 23s

….ffs, here he goes again :lol: :lol: Is that the Keane you were disgusted got a new contract?

Who is this top drawer RB from the U23s you want to play at RB? (I bet he mentions Roman Dixon).

The CBs are not an issue, Tarkowski was being praised here on Monday. For an old man you have a thing about old footballers.
 
He’s a center back. Did a job but he’s targeted now and offers nothing going forward. Has to be Garner at right back until we get a real one. Drop KDH to midfield and play Charly or Dibling.
I agree. We need the right back to be comfortable on the ball and know when to or not to join in attacking play. Without Seamus then Garner is the only choice. Same applies to LB

We needed two new full backs last June FFS blame DM our full back are our week links p.us Tarks is playing crap I have admitted Keanehasbeen gods send this season likemanyposyers wanted rid not just me!
We were outplayed today -Garna would have made no difference when your Keeper has an off day which he's allowed- we just looked knackered after at ten man performance on Mobday night
Go and have a Guinness,,,,
