Jarrad Branthwaite

[kiss the crest]

Very composed on the ball, reminds me of Stones, didn’t put a foot wrong today

Bit shakey for the first 5 mins or so , but done very well from there.
Got better as the game went on.

I reckon we have 3 players who have magic in their boots. This lad, Onana and a fully fit DCL

 

[Toffeepot]

Has to start alongside a hopefully fit Tarky

 

[Mark barnett]

Has to be starting against Fulham.

Good comparison to stones @kiss the crest spot on

DCL is great, a bit like Ferguson the way hes been putting himself about...and the injuries.

Magic...could be Branthwaite, Patterson, Garner, Onana, McNeil and hopefully Chermiti...all the young players look like they have something.

Include Pickford and that's a solid spine to the team

If we sell this lad I believe it will be one of many mistakes even for EFC, he is our future and we will regret it very much in years to come. 21 years old six foot 4 inches tall and a left sided centre half as well as a very good player, what more do you want.

haven't seen branflakes play much yet tbh - for those of u who have, how fast is he really?

and is he the John Terry type or more John stones?
(cue 60 million quid bid from man city next season)

I’m a big fan of Bran Flakes, hope this is a break through season for him

The sooner this nonsense stops the better, and yes he should definitely be starting!

 

[Kirkles]

Did well with what he had to deal with and will improve. Could be found out one on one against a quick striker. Hopefully starts on Saturday

…..not sure I’ve seen him outpaced in a one-on-one race with an opponent.

If he starts against Fulham I’ll happily repent

 

[Toffeeforme]

Looks like a bit of a Mick Lyons to me. Might hang around for years because hes just good enough for us but not fancied by anyone else. Bit like when Unsworth and Duffy came through. Could be wrong though.

Looked very composed and it would be great to see him start the season in the team and stay in it as long as he performs. It will be disappointing if it's Keane starting and Branthwaite only gets a chance when we're on a losing streak.
