VillaChris 7,285 Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 Get a new deal sorted pronto, the kid is a class act. Let's learn our lesson from the Delph situation. He has a bit of Vincent Kompany about him imo, not at that level yet but could potentially get. 4 Link to post Share on other sites
sir_gary_cahill 2,973 Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 Get a new deal sorted pronto, the kid is a class act. Let's learn our lesson from the Delph situation. He has a bit of Vincent Kompany about him imo, not at that level yet but could potentially get. I can definitely see that comparison Link to post Share on other sites
BleedClaretAndBlue 4,555 Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 What deal did we initially sign him on 4years 5k p/w i assume? Link to post Share on other sites
VillaChris 7,285 Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 Let's not have this mentality, he's got loads of time left on his deal why bother negotiating...as it will then get to 12 months and he'll have no interest in resigning just like Delph. He came from the Danish league so he'd hardly be on stupid money and it won't bankrupt us to put it up to 30k ish a week. Link to post Share on other sites

JohnStortford 180 Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 Fast becoming my favourite player.. love everything about him! Funny guy on twitter as well. Feel proud as **** when I see him playing for us. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
LockStockVilla 544 Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 Such an intelligent defender...few times today when RVP and Falcao got into dangerous positions in the box and Okore would just throw enough muscle at them so their efforts on goal were fairly weak and rarely a threat to Guzan. I'm certainly on the Okore love train. Link to post Share on other sites
The_Lions_Roar 631 Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 Yeah rvp had one where he just leabt on him a bit without actually making the challenge which put him off. Link to post Share on other sites
villa89 3,261 Posted December 21, 2014 Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 Looks a player. I love the McGrath-esque runs out of defence where he glides by two players. Built like a heavyweight boxer too. Link to post Share on other sites

DanishVillan 30 Posted December 21, 2014 Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 All we need to do is sign that Pione Sisto and we will have 3 absolute tanks in the team! He certainly looks like the next big thing from the danish league. About to gain danish nationality and could easily become part of our national side. Okore looks set to become the first since Agger to make a successful move from the best danish league to the pl, iirc. Well f***ing done! Link to post Share on other sites
AntrimBlack 4,395 Posted December 21, 2014 Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 After a shaky start, he now looks terrific. We should take a chance on him by extending his contract now and increasing his salary. i think this is a chance that would not fail, considering his age. Link to post Share on other sites
bannedfromHandV 6,869 Posted December 21, 2014 Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 Hmmmmm, would rather see him complete the season with no recurrence of the injury before offering him a new deal Link to post Share on other sites

roonst83 637 Posted December 21, 2014 Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 There isn't a player in our team I want to see wearing the No. 5 shirt more than Jores. Just love him. Along with Tekkers he's my fave player Link to post Share on other sites
briggsy 28 Posted December 21, 2014 Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 A special player, the guy oozes class, how many centre halves in world football can light up a game when they get the ball like he does? If he stays injury free, by next season he'll be as good as any centre half in the prem apart from Kompany He's destined to go on and play for a huge club at some point but i hope he stays with us for at least another 2/3 years and doesnt screw us over too early Link to post Share on other sites
maelstrom 4 Posted December 22, 2014 Report Share Posted December 22, 2014 (edited) Hi all Having watched Okore playing brilliantly this weekend I have found much enjoyment reading the posts on this forum and especially how much you like him I’ve always seen a high star in him so it’s no surprise to me that he is performing so well. Though maybe I didn’t expect him to play this good to be honest. Since I’m from Denmark I imagine we get different access to different information than you do so I’ll direct your attention to this article from a Danish source from today, which had some interesting information in it regarding the time where he was not playing prior to his debut this season. Original article in Danish: http://www.bt.dk/fodbold/brandvarme-okore-ikke-til-salg-aston-villa-vil-afvise-enorme-bud-paa-danskeren Translated through Google translate: https://translate.google.dk/translate?sl=da&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=da&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.bt.dk%2Ffodbold%2Fbrandvarme-okore-ikke-til-salg-aston-villa-vil-afvise-enorme-bud-paa-danskeren&edit-text=&act=url “But when Jores Okore was declared fit without being near the playing time, took steps to find playing time for him elsewhere in the upcoming transfer window. "We have had a very professional and open dialogue with Aston Villa, and there was a time when both sides agreed that a lease would be a good opportunity to get some playing time in the legs. There were clubs in the summer, who asked for the opportunity to buy him, but Aston Villa was not interested in a sale. Lambert has always said that he believes in him, even if it would require a rental, but that he would not use him until Jores was 110 percent ready. They would not force him, "said Nikola Juric. "On a rental basis was here and now interest from elsewhere in Europe and the Premier League, but now is a lease completely out of date. It goes without saying. The process is very similar Jores' time in the FCN where we really had been told they would not extend to him. So he got the chance in a game against Horsens, grabbed it, and the rest is a success story, "said the agent.” Edited December 22, 2014 by maelstrom 4 Link to post Share on other sites
samjp26 4,708 Posted December 22, 2014 Report Share Posted December 22, 2014 Great to hear that we didn't want to rush him back and its completely understandable 2 Link to post Share on other sites
