2024/25 Jake O'Brien

[Neiler]

Actually thought he looked shaky first half and was having a rough night, much better second half.

Coming along nicely.

Very - I want to say humble, but rather not wanting to make a big deal out of things, mute celebration for his first goal and down played everything in his interview after the game.

Reminded me of Roy Keane.

Tarkowski has been putting them in all season.

That was O'Brien's ropiest game but still ends up being the hero.

He was early season for sure.

Schade was giving him a hard time early doors, he played through it.

Actually thought the whole defense was poor tonight and looked fatigued and shaky.

The goal was criminal, switch off City.

 

[bullybeef]

If Dyche didn’t fancy him why did we sign him?

This is very fair.

Should have headed their goal out but that diving header was class so swings and roundabouts.

 

[witchdoc187]

Diving header from a 6'6 right back running into the box? Wtf? Haha. He's been solid

Because luckily he wasn't the DOF otherwise do you think we'd ever have bought N'Diaye?

 

[Huyton Layne]

That Schade was skinning people early doors and Moyes switched full backs, that didn't help so he switched it back.
He does well at right back considering he's a giant CB.
He's scored and we got a point and go another undefeated with him in the side.
Bit more luck and he's scoring the winner and not the equalizer.
Can't see what Dyche thought wasn't ready. Especially when he played Keane for too many games earlier in the season

 

[Wat Tyler]

His worst game for us but gets MOTM , hmm.

Glad he scored, looking at his record for Lyon; he absolutely has a goal in him.

 

[Vintage]

Dyche and his lad sat on the couch watching the scores come through on Sky Sports....O'Brien for Everton!!!

His son turns to him...'you haven't got a clue have you'

Dyche shrugs shoulders and cracks open a fresh tin of worms

 

[FTY]

Not sure about his celebration like

 

[FTY]

350 mile round trip on a Wednesday night couldn’t ya have just run the other gone the other side of their goal

 

[Osamabindiesel]

I was confused by his celebration. But I like a mysterious man

Yep. These are the type of games that will be the making of him. Struggled against some really good play but came out on top in the end (not just the goal)
That tells us everything.

On another Irish comparison, I couldn't wait for Seamus to pin down that RB spot after Moyes persisted with him further up.
I can't wait for him to move to CB
but patience required (IMWT).
