BowenAVFC Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 Nice to see him back on the bench today. Would be interesting to see how he'd play alongside Richards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or dare I say instead of? Richards is learning to be a CB whereas it's Okore's natural position. Move Richards to RB and partner Okore with whoever isn't the shittest out of Clark & Lescott. Bring back cissokho & Bennet and I'd be happier about our survival hopes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going off the game so far I agree with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 Delighted to see him back. Considering its his first appearance since the cup final he done great. I'm hoping he'll remain a starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villanun Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 Despite Lescott's goal I'd take Okore over Lescott any day of the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knoppy1987 Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 Got better as the game went on for me. Definitely one of quite a few positives we have to take from today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicon Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 Great to have him back. Two CBs playing in their respective roles, what a treat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shomin Geki Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 Teenage Mutant Ninja Okore equipped himself well. Composure, desire, ability, a cool head. May have two ball-playing centre backs when Richards returns. Daub some warpaint on Hutton, toss a few landmines under the left side of the Villa Park pitch and we may begin to resemble the dictionary definition of 'defence'.

tonyh29 Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 He still plays like a giraffe on roller skates and needs to get a whole lot better before he is worth a regular place but saying that I'd probably play him over Clark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 Will be a key player for us next season whatever division we're in. Just needs to get some luck with injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sexbelowsound Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 Hopefully he keeps it up and I never have to witness Ciaran 'lets chase the ball around like a 9 year old' Clark again. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntrimBlack Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 Was very good today. Hopefully he can maintain that level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJT123 Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 I wonder why all of our managers, Lambert, Sherwood and Garde have been reluctant to play him? He always does alright but constantly finds himself behind Clark in the pecking order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think because playing Okore would mean that Vlaar had be shifted over to his unnatural left side to accommodate him whereas Clark as a left-footed CB didn't cause that issue. Pairing him with Richards would cause the same problem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
