They looked awesome together. I wouldn't say any of any defensive pairings in the last 4-5 years have been awesome. Perhaps competent at best, but not nearly consistent enough. At the moment he would be my 4th choice CB at Villa, he wants out and he's nearly out of contract. I don't think there is any other option but to get rid while we can still get a small fee for him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 I must have missed these 'awesome' pairings over the past 4 years, years where we consistently finished low in the bottom half and then got relegated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 I think as mentioned the injuries ruined Okore and for me its a failed potential than a transfer flop, hopefully club put in a sell-on clause at least into the deal Interesting just on Sky he is down as doubtful for todays game with injury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilchard Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Official on the Twitter account. Stange move for him - though he seems to have a moron for an agent. Refusing to play last year should have been the end. That performance against Luton was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonno_2004 Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Real shame. Looked a player at times. Typical with our luck with injuries though. Never saw a way back for him after Luton. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

momo Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 The Okore free team today has already let in two goals against Bristol. Don't know what the fuss is about with the new signings. They are no better than last season's players. Okore included. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrentVilla Posted August 27, 2016 Moderator Share Posted August 27, 2016 I said it when he 'came back' from that injury that he would never come back from that injury and in my view that is how its turned out. Shame as I think he was a real talent but I just think he has missed too much football, mentally the injury took its toll and he just won't get back to his previous levels. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimzk5 Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Shame really, he was a promising player ruined by injuries, wish him all the best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One For The Road Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 And to think Chelsea were after him a few years back. Really gutted it didn't work out for him because I was thrilled when he signed. I just wish we could have seen him fully fit for a season to see what he could do. Ah well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrytini Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 Ha ! In all the excitement I missed he had gone. Good. He was rubbish too, and had a rotten attitude from where I see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
