Jores Okore

[frankmosswasmyuncle]

Thought he was outstanding against Leicester, as he was v Palace.
He's the sort of player we need to keep at the club.


We need a song for him...and I know we've been there before!

[Toronto Villa]

Do you think he actually roared during his interview?

[Dave Cooper please]

Do you think he actually roared during his interview?

Passionately.

Do you think he actually roared during his interview?

I'd like to think so.
There's no doubt he enjoyed the game and the 3 points against Leicester, and the fact that his mate Clarky scored!

His composure on the ball in potentially dangerous situations has been amazing (he does remind me a bit of McGrath in that sense though there's a chance he may get caught from time to time) ...there's a really skilled footballer in there.

Passionately.

I always love it when footballers roar, or "cried". A bit like when the transfer window opens I imagine the Villa management team on board the deck of the Starship Enterprise "bracing" themselves for a bid for one of the players.

[PaulWinch again]

I agree with the point above re his contract. We should be making sure the likes of Okore are tied down, as it will cost us badly if we don't.

I agree this should be dealt with asap. Obviously there's a risk with the knee, but he's been excellent since he came in and I'd rather look on the positive side.

Like a LION!

He's got two and a half years left so there's not really a panic.

[PaulWinch again]

I didn't say there was a panic, but the earlier the better.

[PeterWithesShin]

I never said you did, i'm simply pointing out that giving a new contract to someone who I don't think has played 10 games for us yet and has two and a half years on their contract is hardly something urgent.

7 games, was in the interview linked a few pages back.

[Matt Collins]

I've been very impressed

I like him more than his brother Derek

[OCD]

Given the position we find ourselves with Vlaar and Delph (and countless others in the past), I can see why people may have already raised the issue of a new contract.

[john2710]

He looks top quality to me. Attacks the ball, has pace, strength & good distribution. Both him & Clark have earned the right to keep their places & long may it continue.

[frankmosswasmyuncle]

With the other CBs we have - Baker and Senderos - we need to cash in on Ron...if anyone will have him!
'The Mighty Reds YNWA' and ManU in a bidding war would be just fine.

UTV!
