2025/26 Jarrad Branthwaite

[BlueStevie35]

Praying to the gods that that’s it for his injuries now, beyond happy to see him back and I think Tarks and Jake were glad to have him back too

 

[joebocop]

he's so good isn't he? We were dominant in that second half and I think that was partly down to him and the confidence he gives the rest of the team.

We were still rubbish in the final third, but he improves the other 2/3rds of the pitch so so much.

He doesn't panic and passes well. Positioning is so good as well. He looked like he's played all season.

 

[Pabbers]

Forgot how good a footballer he was, unreal player.

 

[Ron Burgundy]

Has to start the next game. I quite like the 3 at back but our full backs aren't good enough for us to utilise it.

I totally agree. He instantly transformed us when he came on.

 

[lieneverton]

His passing is so much better than the rest of our defence.

It's embarrassing to even compare the passing. I'd go as far to say he was the reason the attacking momentum shifted a bit - he started playing balls on the ground into midfield which got Leeds finally running back instead of having an unbelievably easy evening which they were 1st half.

 

[ToffeeTim]

He's different level to our other defenders. Need to be sensible and manage his minutes because we need him fit for the long haul.

 

[Cels]

It was brilliant to see Jarrad Branthwaite making a return; hopefully, he can stay injury free now.

 

[JobForTheMoyes]

Europe really is on if he stays fit. Arguably the most important player in the squad.

 

[Mozza1987]

He plays the ball forward rather than side to side.

 

[ValBlue]

Forgot how good he was to be honest. Not even just defensively but how well he passes the ball diagonally and runs the ball into midfield

 

[EGWToffee]

We looked so calm at the back when he came on. Must start next week.

 

[Seathestars]

Couldn't believe it when I saw him on the bench and then coming on, didn't think he was so far along.
A huge bonus

 

[Gilbert..]

Tactical switch made it but he looked part of the reason it did work.
Wrap him in cotton wool.
