2023/24 Jarrad Branthwaite

[chippy1722]

Had seen a few say he is like stones think branthwaite is the better defender imo not as good on the ball as stones but have the same calmness about them. The lad is quality so glad we didnt sell would have been a massive mistake

Even if he continues to improve he will never get the credit until a Top 4 team come in for him. We aren’t particularly attractive to the media to big up our players. Which may work in our favour.

….the media gave him MoM today and Micah Richards was eulogising him. He’s not going unnoticed.

Given his age, his speed and athleticism, his aerial ability, his calmness in possession, his desire to defend and his application I would only start thinking about a transfer at £80m, and even then I’d want add-ons.

This boy is the real deal, if you can't see that then perhaps football is not for you. I laugh every time I see him going to Newcastle or United or somewhere for 20 million. I think this boy is in @Zatara country with regards to his future value in the transfer market.

Name and shame these people!

Out-ran and bopped Antonio off the ball very easily in the first half. Was impressive.

Two capable feet and calm enough to use em and not panic.

He was a joy to watch today.

I hope, we can progress enough in next 2 years to make him want to stay, but see the logic in commanding a huge fee for him.

For me he's way ahead of Stones at this age, calm, assured, unphased and sensible, reads the game well and positionally astute.

We have a golden ticket here.

In the current market, I reckon we’re in for the better part of £150m for JB and Onana next summer.

Kev will be getting goosebumps at the prospect.

Doubt Kev would see much of it to be honest mate.

Would say that would be cheap given the current market. Could be a centre back for a top team for over a decade.

Not my style mate, I leave that to the more belligerent posters.

 

[Myllos]

I've seen Dyche saying more than once that they are not over-coaching him ie: "Jarrad (Branthwaite) continues to learn and to find that Premier League way. We’re not over-coaching him, we’re letting him go a little bit but he’s doing a very good job."

If there are any pro-level coaches or trainers here, I would love to hear what that means in practice. Because in my thinking that would also mean errors and potential howlers, but those are nonexistent in his performances.

I think he may be gone in the summer sadly.

His performances wont be going unnoticed plus everyone knows what i financial mess were in.

The kid is class and he will be playing CL football within 18 months (obviously not with us)
Man City will come calling very soon.

I can see him at Newcastle. Very much fits in with what they are building and is an Eddie Howe type player.

 

[SJB]

He's got a long career ahead of him, he might want to get a couple of seasons Premier League experience under his belt at a club he knows he's first choice before stepping up a level.

I agree and hopefully during that time the squad at Everton will be stronger and challenging higher up the league, giving Branthwaite a difficult decision. Although big, big money and the club can’t refuse.

 

[Bilko]

Wouldn't it be so special if he wanted to stay and help build our team into finally bring trophies,restoring our standing.
I'm a dreamer.
