HanoiVillan Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 That he didn't make the bench today was telling. Time to stick a fork in him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

electronicmaji Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 It's a shame he used to be such a promising defender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TB Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 He might have played/talked himself out of the squad for the foreseeable future. But then again, RDM might have decided that a stressed young CB in a back four lacking a proper leader should have some time out of the limelight. Who knows? I had the feeling that the team selection on Wednesday was the manager giving some players enough rope to hang themselves with. Perhaps Micah needed some more rope?

A good player will shine even among the dross, and will shine even brighter alongside good players. Shine bright like a Weimann? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xela Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 If we're not going to sell him then I'd consider loaning him out for a bit to get some games under his belt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a shock to me he didn't make the bench yesterday, it isn't a co-incidence RDM got the Chester deal moving the morning after the Luton game. I'd still keep Okore around as we don't have much pace at the back centrally. I did hear about a rumour involving him off the pitch aswell.

Ah right, didn't realise he was in the last year of his deal. Looks like we need to sell him then as I can't see us offering, or him signing, a new deal. Might as well get something for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macandally Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Feel for Okore a bit. He seems to have been hung out based on Luton game but for me he was fine alongside Baker but caught out by the one man debacle that is Richards. Richards at fault for at least two of the goals and Amavi the third. i think could do a job for us if alongside Elphick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awful player who has been given a lot of chances by some villa fans who, for some reason, have always viewed his displays with rose tinted specs on. He's rubbish, he really is 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will always look shit at centre back because he's not a centre back. Okore is just shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DamsonwoodVillan Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 I've said about a few of the players the same as I'll say about Okore... The last good game I remember him having was the Liverpool FA Cup Semi Final. That's a long while ago now. Since then he's been another cog in a dreadful machine of performers. There might be a good player in there somewhere, but he is one of the members of the failed era here, it won't happen for him now. I think similar of a few of the others who are still here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
