Probably because that with Tarkowski, Branthwaite & Keane available and with Patterson and Coleman fit O’Brien would still be first choice right full back. So it’s right and sensible to compare against your current best right full back as that’s who you are buying to replace“The Bobble mentioned that when the club is comparing a player they are scouting, they compare the player against Jake O’Brien not Patterson or Coleman! Mind boggling.”

Yeah sound mate
It’s not the same … playing on the wing or full back is considered easier as you only have to worry about is on one side of you …
See his assist for Barry the other night … edge of the box .. drives into the area in tight spaces and puts the ball into a danger area …
He can operate in tight spaces …
When he gets the ball out wide he has no overlapping fullback and can either cross it , play it back or inside … no real opportunities for one twos , no shooting chances etc
It’s also easier for them to double up on him on the wing … if they do that in the middle he has the ability to draw them in and release it to someone , that creates havoc and teams do it to us all the time in the middle of the park .
Also I’d rather have him winning free kicks on the edge of their box rather then out near the touch line

Interesting podcast on the Byline. World Cup being so long is going to ruin the window this summer. If you can pay over the odds now to get a player (as long as not crazy value) and you finish 6 places higher and get Europe, then you’ve probably have paid the Jan premium in 6 months

Are we saying that he is more than DCL mate (I thought that was his link). How do random people know this info?“The Bobble mentioned that when the club is comparing a player they are scouting, they compare the player against Jake O’Brien not Patterson or Coleman! Mind boggling.”

Much easier to take a punt when you've got £60m cash burning a hole in your pocket... and he is rated in the same bracket as Luis Guilherme was before he went to West Ham, look how that has turned out. You just never know, 60 grand can buy you a legend and 60 million a complete dud.
Not strictly true - as Moyes will evidence when asked at his next presser... "aye, getting the three boys back on the grass is like having three new signings"
Yeah I get all that, but that's with him drifting into the centre with his face to goal. He needs to do it alot more, but sticking him centrally as his position will definitely slow down the centre, also he wont have the same freedom.
I know we keep going back to the same points, but a quick overlaping Fb would give him even more freedom.
As frustrating as it might be to him, he has to start trusting the other 10 players on the field.
