In fairness to the city of Derry they're doing something right. Alot of the other larger urban areas(Limerick, Cork, Galway etc) could do worse that to look at their set up. They are providing plenty of players to the English leagues and the international set up. ------------- I could agree with you but then we'd both be wrong. |

I have been hearing about okane since he was 13 but never managed to catch one of his games (edit I did see him in the milk cup for the pub side). He comes from the same academy as Gibson and the coaches there rate him very highly. He keeps the ball and is a great passer he is also a top lad. Comes from a big gaa family just outside Derry so I wasn't surprised that he declared for us. I hope he causes an upset on Saturday |

Still one for the future I think, he has done it the hard way and I think he is a bit of a late developer physically. Realistically it will be the 2018 World Cup campaign that he should be targetting. Plenty of time, guys like Andrews, green, Kinsella, holland and Lawrence didn't come to the for for us until they were the other side of 25 before they came to the fore for us iirc (can't be arsed to check). Technically this guy is brilliant but as we all know that is not enough (see Stevie mcphail and Liam miller) Hopefully turns it on tomorrow !! |

We can't be discarding/writing off any young player. For every Damian Duff and Robbie Keane there are 10 Liam millers Crowley won't be changing back it seems and there's nothing to suggest grealish is a certainty not to be another Liam miller, Colin Healy, Conor Clifford, graham barrett, Jim o'Brien etc etc Eunan is a very tidy player, he may not have reached his full potential and still be improving, as I said earlier holland, kinsella, Andrews and Lawrence all were decent servants for us and were all late bloomer. To my knowledge he is not a holding midfielder he is more of a playmaker. |

A bit casual and prone to take overambitious chances in his passing all right. Still, at least he's up for it and his team is doing well here.

I don't think he is a cause célèbre for anyone ,it's simply a case that the lad has played the biggest game of his career against 2 England internationals and he came away with the man of the match award. In view of that he deserves credit on here that he has been given. He has done things the hard way going down to the lower leagues. He is now with a championship side which should bring him into contention |

I saw him a few times for the u21s here in the show grounds, he seemed a class player good at finding space and keeping the ball. To me though he seemed a bit shy and reluctant to make a defence splitting pass, clearly he's over that now based on the comments above. He also hit the crossbar in soccer am's crossbar challenge yesterday!

Mark Kinsella, Glenn Whelan and Wes spent the early part of their career in the lower Leages and took a bit of time to develop. Part of the problem I feel with British and Irish football is the culture of players "not working hard enough".
I remember that Pardew as he was then known put Mascherano on the bench at West'Am, Hughes put Elano on the bench for the same reason. Many players are not designed to "work hard". ------------- Jackie Charlton, Eoin Hand Johnny Giles.

Posted By: JAVIER

You need to check your vision, man, that's a fact. Have you watched the entire game? Arter is not bad, he is lefty, but he was a passenger for most of the game. O'Kane, on the other hand, he was the brains for them most of the game, and got a super 1st half motm performance. Play with both legs, can pass either left or right, can lead attacks, my money is on him. He was singled out today by the commentators on ESPN +, as the best Bournemouth player and I agree. The guy suits better in a premier league team man, in the lower divisions of the brittish game they dont play football they play, hoofball. It is hard for passing players to play there |

Man, i watched the whole match nearby the beach, and individual mistakes were at blame. You cant do anything tactically if the players do mistakes, ya know, players make mistakes all the time, footie rule #1, you just have to say it was poor individual defending.. Anyway cant discuss with your stupidity because you have been working on it over the years you may have a doctorship on it, mate, dont mean it but it is true. Bielsa will excel if he manages Ireland someday, no question about it, international football is better for him. If you have some footie sense, since playing the game and learning put of it, you will know that this guy O'Kane is really THAT good like the other Hourihane lad as well or Ronan Murray the few times i watched him he was really good and hard to defend. Or Greg Cunningham who i think is the best candidate for the left back role, after o'shea is gone and the wilson/ clark partnership takes over... by the end of the day,...............Who the f**k cares where a guy plays his club football, it is if the player is good or not. |

Individual mistakes? You couldn't tell who was playing in defense, the defensive line was a squiggle. A simple ball over the top caused the two goals.

What are you talking about ?I never said it made any difference where a player plays his club football,my point is O'kane doesn't play regular football for his club so he is hardly going to be called up based on one decent performance.How the fook would you know O'Kane is THAT good when he barely features for his team and you said yourself ESPN dont show the games . As for the other gibberish  Cunningham not a regular starter and Murray one goal all season ,if you think these lads all deserve to be called up now you are either a wum or deluded .

O'Kane ive watching the lad play at least 4 times over the years, and doesnt take you much time to realize if a player is worthy or not. The guy is good. Maybe you are too much in love with english football culture, and dont see the whole picture. Only in Ireland/England/ Scotland a player like Hoolahan wont make it, it took him several years and if you watch the kid play, you know that he is really good... |

How do you measure a player? By how good the player is? or how good he does the things he is asked for by his manager? I really rate the fellows I mentioned beforehand. Not a WUM or crazy, Hourihane, Matt Doherty, Cillian Sheridan, Cunningham, Ronan Murray, O'Kane are in the mid 20 and I think they are better than other options around. I gave you 6 names. Untested. You cant trust in englsih football no more, man , as it was before, english football is a scam, a laundry place, were money destroyed the football, and it is hard to develop youngsters properly. Back in time some irish fellows came from the english footie underage academies, but now that doesnt seem to happen anymore. Mark Lawrenson, Brady, Whelan, Stapleton, Staunton, O'Leary and many more they came from that system.. That is not the case anymore.. Robbie Brady a player that i really rate, and got impressed couldnt make it at Man U , because he wasnt given the chance., and for me the kid is a super player. |

Man, i cant believe you!! are you for real??!! Doesnt take you long if you are a football man and mind , to recognize if a player is good or not,... with lapses of him you can judge a player. 4 or 6 times is enough to rate a player, you watch him the whole game, how he plays, how he passes around, the decisions he takes on the ball and off the ball, how he shields the ball, identify if the guy is left, right, or both, if he can place himself in good positions to get a pass, if he can read the game wisely, if he can anticipate situations during the game, if he can pass one timer, if he can interact well with his teammates, MAN THAT IS FOOTBALL KNOWLEDGE.

Yes compadre, but listen, you talking with the english mindset, the club football and a player transfer fee and market price tag is only a side of a story, otherwise you just cant justify what Costa Rica and Auckland City did in the last international scenario. O'KANE BRIGHT PLAYER TREACEY GOOD PLAYER O'DEA GOOD PLAYER AND CHARACTER remembered him vs Russia and he was inmense RONAN MURRAY that kid is really good has everything to success bar recognition DOHERTY Pacy defender and he is very versatile can play holding mid as well CILLIAN SHERIDAN play good games vs top world class teams at CL and he offers something different he is a post player a target man. HOURIHANE i ve checked his stats and some clips and the game is class CUNNINGHAM he played 5 times internationally and always performed well. Started at 17 like Staunton and the great Jim Beglin. the good players doesnt matter where they play , because market is something that depends on nationality and agents there are around some SQUARE players that get contracts like CISOKHO |

O'Kane was superb at Villa Park on Sunday, particularly in the first half. Heard several people sitting around me commenting on 'their number 32' as well.
