Sir this is the Jake O Brien thread

 

[MACCA75]

Keane has been poor but not as poor as Tarks.... He has seemed really off it this year, never the fastest but age seems to be catching up

He’s only 31. Linford Christie became Olympic sprinting champion at 32!

Yeah he must be counting down the days

 

[NathDogg]

Hopefully he gets some minutes for Eire in the next two games, could be playing for a move in January.

100 percent legit was Linford

Ashley young became the first choice right back of one of the most historic clubs in English football history at 39

 

[Pabbers]

Great signing, managed really well too......

 

[Dublin blue 75]

Linked with January loan back to a selection of Ligue 1 clubs.

Great work Thelwell and Dyche.

Can’t blame the lad for wanting away, shambles of a club, including DoF and manager.

I wouldn't blame this on Thelwell. We have a manager who has been starting a CB we have been actively trying to get rid of (on a club level) for multiple years instead.

 

[Joey66]

Dyche has had ample opportunity to play him as his Burnley chum with a bad back gets the nod every week & is out of form ... plays most games .....

 

[KaiserEFC]

Have they done a Krouldrup and signed a bloke with an absolutely glaring deficiency that literally cannot be fixed and means he will never work in the PL? Hard to believe seeing as he came through Palace so it’s almost certainly pure incompetence.

Yeah that thought has crossed my mind a few times, something is not right.

 

[Bedfordblue]

Hope this guy comes good as he has all the physical attributes to be a monster C/H.

I originally assumed he was cover for JB getting sold, but the more it goes on and seeing Sexy Texy spouting off about his attempt to buy us again and how close he was (clearly wasn’t), I do wonder whether £17m for Jake was a bit of quid pro quo to go public and flush TFG out and into bidding.
