He is around the same age as Douglas Luiz, Keenan Davis and Konsa. Much older than Vassilev. If he was good enough he’d be kept in our squad, a regular at a League one club and under contract after the summer. He is none of these things. Playing well in the 2nd tier U23 league doesn’t really equate to first team potential. Exactly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaVilla Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 His contract expires this summer doesn't it? I thought we activated the 1 year extension in his contract last summer, so either he signs a new one or hes off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the club felt he'd progress to the level where he will be a first team player in a couple of years he'd have a longer deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless something has been signed and unannounced Davis, Doyle-Hayes, Green, Hepburn-Murphy, Sarkic & O'Hare are all out of contract in the Summer.

sne Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 (edited) Assist in extra time for O'Hare who was subbed on after 72 minutes against SHA in the cup. Currently the game winning goal Edit: SHA scored so pens it is. Edited February 4, 2020 by sne 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is very small and lightweight, so would struggle in the PL. Unless he bulks up, has a growth spurt or develops Messi-esque technical ability I'm not sure he will make it at the top level.

bannedfromHandV Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 Ah, the too-small accusation again. Because that’s never been disproven has it.....every single footballer is 6ft+ and 15 stone of pure, unadulterated muscle.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 We gave Ramsay a new deal before he left on loan. The fact we didn't do that with O'Hare shows what the clubs thoughts are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By that logic he should be struggling in league 1, which is a far more physically demanding league. He's doing quite well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Callum is absolutely smashing it at Cov this season, with his physicality not being an issue at all. If Villa don’t stick him on a decent contract they’re mad. The club have recently recognised the importance of getting their young players out on loan for “real” football experience and it’s certainly paying off for Callum O’Hare, and he’ll get better and better. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. I was talking to a Cov fan at work and he was desperate to keep him. Could be the equivalent of Jack’s loan to Notts Forest in terms of Callum’s development.
