Avfc96 Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 He looked very good today apart from that shit header back to Guzan at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomaspg Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 he should be a given starter, we actually looked solid at the back and i didnt automatically shit my pants when the ploppers came running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CocaineNicklas Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 (edited) Okore often delivers quality passes up field, including long passes, but they didnt allow any room to play the ball in for him today. Tough schedule with these 3 matches for you guys and within a week, you will win the next 3 instead Edited August 24, 2013 by CocaineNicklas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwan Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 I think he's going to be great. Bang on starter every match. Though I do think he'll have a clunker with that lack of a left foot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Played well tonight. Immense potential for a 20 year old. Quick and strong in his duels with Sturridge. He looks to have the attributes needed for the premier league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amo69 Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 I dont mean to be negative but I hope we've got a big sell on clause for this lad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVTuco Posted August 24, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted August 24, 2013 (edited) He will be an awesome player. I'm already trusting him more than Vlaar. He looks so comfortable and confident out there. Edited August 24, 2013 by AVTuco 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyM3000 Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Might actually get a solid defence by christmas if we stick with him along with Vlaar, Lowton and Luna. Give them time they can be a pretty good back 4 IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papillon Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Yeah, he was very good, but when you factor in his mistake for their goal and the cock-up at the end you cannot give him a very high mark. He covered Sturridge, then let him go and failed to get back at him when he was inside the box. Basic defensive error, when everyone else is guarding their own player you have to make sure you take out the one you just let go. Sturridge is their only striker and their most dangerous one as well, but then he scores. High potential, no doubt about it, very assured on the ball and makes good tackles, but that doesn't hide the fact that he made some mistakes. The missed pass back to Guzan wasn't of any significance after all, but I guess we wouldn't have said that if the score was 0-0 and they got a penalty.

8pints Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 His pace looks like a good attribute in our defensive set up. His pace looks like a good attribute in our defensive set up. What is Y.C.S.T.A an acronym for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The missed pass back to Guzan wasn't of any significance after all, but I guess we wouldn't have said that if the score was 0-0 and they got a penalty. Let us remember that this is his first 90 minutes for us and he had very little pre-season. Towards the end he looked very tired which isn't surprising, think this short break from the league will do him the world of good as he'll be able to get his fitness levels to 100% as well as probably play against weaker opposition (no offence to Rotherham). I still can't believe we actually managed to pull off such a coup. People often pick up on young attacking talents around Europe because of goal stats and such but a lot of the time defenders go under the radar. I've heard nothing but great things about Okore over the last couple of years, every time I have seen him play he seems to do so as if he were much older and more experienced. Very exciting prospect.

mikeyp102 Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Could be a future captain, looks very good. String and quick and understands the game.. Was even trying to drive the team on, during the later part of the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AValon Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Overall pleased with him. Ok, the errors were obvious, but he was'nt invisible.....he was a presence the entire 90mins Bright future.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
