Jores Okore

Will Okore ever be fit to play ?

Will Okore ever be fit to play ?

He's been on the bench during the last few games, so i would say yes.

[Grande Pablo]

On the bench for Liverpool when Baker shined, & also on the bench for the Arse when Clark came in.  Poor bloke will be getting a complex.

I thought he played a couple of internationals in the last few weeks.

Might be reading too much into it, but for those who got a match programme on Saturday, look at the expression on his face in the team picture in the middle spread.   

[supertom]

He's only really been fit the last couple of weeks hasn't he? Perhaps Lambert just didn't want to chuck him in against Liverpool or Arsenal. I suspect he'll be similarly inclined for the next couple of games. Whilst we may not particularly rate Baker and Clark, both have played over 50 games at this level which gives them an experience advantage on Jores, if not a talent one.

His time will come though. He's had his most memorable game ever against Chelsea, for his previous club, so I dunno, that may be in Lamberts thoughts and he may be tempted to put him in, but I doubt it. If Baker still isn't fit though, can Lambo really stick with Clark after such a poor showing?

He came on for us down there to replace Clark last season didn't he? My memory might be playing tricks but I seem to remember he had a solid game.

I'm looking forward to him getting his chance again.

Suppose it depends on what extent Clark may also have been affected by this virus.

Yeah I think he did last season and looked good, and then of course there was that Champions League tie for his old club against Chelsea where he had the game of his life. If he likes playing Chelsea, then we could put him in. That is unless Vlaar is fit.

Yeah, there's that I suppose.

Clarke was due to visit a local school yesterday and pulled out through injury /illness, if it wasn't that he just didn't fancy it then perhaps Okore will get his chance on Saturday.

[PaulWinch again]

I really hope he gets his chance soon.

[ozzjim]

I think it is just about giving him time. He had one of the worst injuries in the game, and I think the club not rushing him is probably going to be good for him in time, both fitness and confidence wise.

Hopefully it was one of those soccer skills schools.

Guffaws.
