2024/25 Jake O'Brien

I suspect both O’Brien and Dixon will get a good run out against Southampton, and if they don’t cock it up, will be in the side against Leicester on Saturday.

Disagree with the second part mate, purely down to the manager.

They get a good run out against the saints and are then dropped for the Leicester game, no matter how well they play.

I can smell it.

O Brien and Dixon need to start against Southampton. May give us some physicality and pace, across the back 4.

Agree ould rest branthwaite for the weekend game maybe bring him on later in the game for fitness. But 100% agree on dixon and obrien should be tiven a chance with myko maybe still ill is perfect time put him in.

I would absolutely love us to smash saints by three or four (obviously) … but if we do I can almost guarantee being in a position to reference this post on the weekend to demonstrate how predictable that ginger fraud is.

The kid looked ok to me when he came on, I'm not sure where all these 'he's too slow' shouts are coming from, he's not Branthwaite levels of quick, but, he's far quicker than Tarkowski or Keane.

When i watched him in preseason he looked quick especially for his stature

The thing that annoys me with dyche even when a player he had to incorporate due to injury does well theyre are rarely rewarded unless its incredibly obvious that he shpuld be playing like branthwaite. Dixon should have started after his performance against spurs

I thought he was ok today. Confident on the ball and always looking for a quick forward pass.

Not sure if it was his man or Doucoures for their goal. Looked like Doucoure stood on his foot.

Didnt watch it but do you think would be better with a tark next to him ? Defence has to be looked at and whatever the manager thinks every game with keane we have let a goal
In

 

[SuperKev91]

Did alright, probably his man for the goal. Looks a bit hesitant and unsure when to get tight or drop off.

Keane had a better game tonight.

They were miles away from marking that goal scorer, as you say basically trampling on each other.

Doucore and Mangala were the weak links today by far. Good on DOUCS for doing what he does well and finishing, but he did not have a good game otherwise and probably got in Obriens way for that goal.

Is that down to keane being so quiet ? And well does not give anyone confidencr in that back 4

 

[mccole]

Him and Keane held their own.

Not helped by McNeil not being a left back.

 

[roy vernon]

I thought both centre backs had good games tonight.

Zero impact again!
