I blame Soccer AM Yes, he should be told to cut out the nonsense, play a percentage game and next time ensure to lump it up to the big number 9. THEN he may one day get to play for the mighty England in the future. Anywhere else in the world they would be exited about the potential of an exciting young kid and encouraging the maverick, not critical of the failure which is why pretty much everyone else in the world has better players than us. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not critical of the failure? I’m critical of him glowing about nutmegging someone on social media. Experiment in matches, use whatever flair you have, but it isn’t a success just pulling off a trick. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 Time to put players like O'Hare properly into the fold. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaAlex Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 I don't think Jack will go yet. He loves the Villa too much, he is young enough to stay for one more season. Hopefully him and O'Hare can produce some magic next season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

O'Hare does have potential but I think he should have been out on loan this season. But yes, if Jack does go (and I wouldn't be surprised if he did) then there would hopefully be more of a role for O'Hare. Can't see him quite filling those boots just yet, though, if at all.

How much did Bruce impact him or how much Terry. I think that would be up to debate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troglodyte Posted May 26, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted May 26, 2018 Maybe so, but it still doesn't support the argument that Bruce doesn't know how to utilize a player with that skillset, does it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack & O Hare maybe similiar but their games differs a little. Jack physically stronger & have legs to carry ball from deep .. O hare has better close ball control / quicker feet , most effective in find space / gaps / teammates in crowded penalty box in tight areas , when ball is in circulation mode in the modern pass & move game.

AshVilla Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 I hope he's the next Grealish because the current one will be leaving the building. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I'm not saying they're exactly the same player. I think the differences you've described sum up exactly why he hasn't been given more of a role. That's not to say I wouldn't have liked to have seen more of him this season, but I'm not sure we could have afforded to take that risk, even with the hindsight now of us not going up. Maybe next season he will get more of a chance and I would be interested to see how he takes it, but I still think he'd benefit from a few months out on loan.

blunther Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 (edited) Kids like him are the reason I’m not too crushed by the defeat today. Would never have featured in the Premier League. As least now we get to see what some of the youth team are made of. Edited May 26, 2018 by blunther 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom13 Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Anyone got a proper video of him? Want to see what kind of player he is. Is there any chance him and Grealish could play together or is it gonna be one or the other? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hippo Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Grealish has the body swerves, close control that I haven't seen since Brian Little. O'Hare isn't actually that similar - he can beat a man, deliver a pass and maybe has more of an eye for goal than Jack - To me o'Hare is more like Barry Banan than Grealish - that not to talk down COH - I just think killer passes are his forte - not ball retention and swerves. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fun Factory Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 (edited) I just hope not everyone places all their hope on Callum thinking he is Grealish 2.0. He is just a promising kid at present. If not he will be getting it from the boo-boys at Villa Park by about November. The last game he played for senior team versus Peterborough he did little to suggest he is the lovechild son of Cowans and Grealish.

AXD Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 It would be mental to expect him to replace Grealish so easily. Let’s not forget grealish had been part of the first team for 4 seasons now and had a loan spell at Notts. O’Hare should have had more game time this season.
