Callum O'Hare and Mitch Clark

[brontebilly]

Callum O Hare played a blinder last night setting up three goals as Coventry beat Bristol Rovers in front of a packed* St Andrews. Be nice to have him back.

Surely COH is a better option than Lansbury for us right now?

[Rudy Can't Fail]

O'Hare will be Jack's replacement should he leave. Hopefully we'll see both in the squad next season.

Maybe. It depends on Callum developing and timing. If he’s Jack’s replacement anytime in the near future I’d suggest things haven't gone well.

Maybe we can’t bring some of these on loan players back due to the loan agreement

that’s what someone said to me anyway when I suggested we bought RHM back

I think Callum has been in and out of the Cov team, there's been some impressive performances but not consistently so. I'd be pleasantly surprised if he comes back to us and starts games should we be relegated.
How has Mitch done this season?

The last time I saw COH was in the FA Cup game against Swansea last year and he looked like a little boy lost.

Unless there's been a dramatic change in him over the past 12 months I wouldn't let him near a Premier League game.

My take on it also.

High hopes are great, and I think O'Hare could be a decent footballer, but suggesting he would be ready to potentially replace Grealish in approx a year's time is fantasy stuff IMO.

Isn't O'Hare the same age as Luiz?  He was a great hope of ours but seems miles off PL standard.  Puts some of Luiz's below par performances into perspective.

Yeah. Hepburn-Murphy is only a few months younger as well, I believe. And you are right - generally fans tend to be a bit more patient when their are their own academy players.

you’ve just described are current midfield apart from the obvious one

[Luke8]

On a similar note, I believe several of our younger players contracts are currently due to expire this  summer; O’Hare, Green, Hepburn-Murphy, Doyle-Hayes, Sarkic.

Be interesting to see how many of that group we keep. Obviously the division we are in will be a factor.

O Hare is a league (at least) above the rest of his present team mates. I think next year, with the Villa, could be his time.

[eamonn]

Check out the highlights of Cov's FA Cup replay the other night on the Beeb football page. Worth it to see the weight on the passes for their first two goals assisted by Callum. Lovely stuff.

[Archbishop Herbert Cockthrottle]

Turning into quite a playmaker albeit as a supersub. Last night against a team from the lower leagues:

CALLUM O’HARE (72 mins, for Westbrooke): 7.5
As busy and lively as ever, the Villa loan man helped keep up the pressure and set up Biamou for his extra-time goal.

I think it was a mistake to let O'hare go on loan, I'd rather he came on than Lansbury.
