O'Connell midfield dynamo?

I always had O'Connell as part of a back three - but there you go it's in colour too so must be right. Good to see he has the most interceptions along with Coutts most completed passes we seem to be doing something right?

It's obviously bollocks. Aside from the obvious blunder considering magic hat as a midfield dynamo, it also reckons we're good enough to stay in the top 6.

According to La Liga's most massive followers, we'll tumble down the league come December because we have to play some games of football.

Nice to see JOC get some deserved recognition but an embarrassing lack of research from the journo.

I honestly think that JOC is one of our best signings in the last 10-20 years.

The answer will shock you.

The longer this utter cluelessness about our team and players continues, the better our chances of success.

Although to be fair he does play a sort of centre-back-cum-left-winger role.

It's a bit unfair on proper journalists to call him one. If the bloke who wrote that is a journalist, so are we.

Agreed . But I could also say exactly the same about Fleck , and Stevens , and Duffy , and .........

Shoddy journalism, however, i've said on here before that I wouldn't be surprised to see him occupy a Defensive Midfield role in the future

They've also declared today that "it's time the Blades looked into signing Jonjoe Kenny on loan from Everton".

Because we haven't already got two good right wing backs.

They didn't use any values from transfermarkt in that article though, so that's a plus.

Nah not for me. He’s too good at centre half to move

Is it Dan Burn or Sam Morsy?

I see what you mean, especially Fleck as he was free and still only 26. I just mean we paid a smallish fee for JOC, he's still only 23 and I think he has not only shown he is comfortable at this level, I think he will keep improving and could play at a higher level.

 

[boo radley]

I would like to see his pass completion stats against how many he's given away. Bet it is better than Player we have.

 

[FTPE]

We've got a CENTRE HALF who overlaps, beats his man, and whips quality balls into the box!
If that's doesnt sum up our current team then I don't know what does.

I understand perfectly well what you are saying mate and I'm in complete agreement with everything you say . Wilder seems to have an uncanny knack not just for spotting talent but nurturing it and positively developing it further . I'm of the opinion that under Wilders guidance we currently have 5 or 6 players who could comfortably perform at a higher level still .

 

[Scooter_mcgavin]

I've said it before countless times.

Anyone quoting Football League World or hitc articles on this site should be castrated.

Put it up as a sticky!

 

[Bladesman]

Do they know about Billy Sharp our goalkeeping maestro?

 

[bladesmanluke]

Doesn’t our very own Maxter write shit for them? Or some other equally shit website?

 

[Pinchy]

The answer will shock you.

Agreed?

His pass completion rate of 69% isn’t spectacular. However, he makes the second highest average passes in a game after Couttsy, although a long way off his average. So he making many good passes a game.

I rate him very highly, I think he’s a cracking player, a great signing.

Just 5-6?

 

[Berlin Blade]

He is as good as anything we've ever had at centre half.

That includes Harry, Jags and Cahill, and all those either have or will captain England.

*EDIT* maybe not Paul Mcgrath

 

[Alfreton14Blade]

From now on, I will always think of him as the Engine Room Dynamo, or ERD for short.

Like fuck.
