Cracking strike from him today against Watford for Bournemouth. Ex Irish u19 international now 24, been highly praised after todays game and looked pretty good on the ball from what I saw of him. O'Kane & Arter could well push on this season and possibly get themselves into an Irish squad. ------------- "He drives two Ferraris; I think he's a very lucky lad to have 50 caps for Ireland," Eamonn Dunphy on Glenn Whelan |

London born, but declared for us from a really young age. I like the look of him tbh, no harm in calling him up for a friendly or two if he keeps up his good form under Eddie Howe. ------------- "He drives two Ferraris; I think he's a very lucky lad to have 50 caps for Ireland," Eamonn Dunphy on Glenn Whelan |

Happened to have a conversation with Harry on Saturday in the team hotel, he was sitting by himself in the middle of the bar while everyone was running around looking for autographs they left him out i don't think outside the FAI knew who he was. Top bloke, really dead on down to earth guy. IMO, him and McCarthy are the way forward. Whelan will always do a job, sometimes we need more then just doing a bloody job. for fcuk sake, we cant put that team out v Scotland, we'll lose again.

Good interview with Arter from a few days ago, on how he's worked his way up from football's lower reaches. http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/football-league/harry-arter-interview-artful-arter-two-wins-from-the-dream-10202511.html" rel="nofollow - http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/football-league/harry-arter-interview-artful-arter-two-wins-from-the-dream-10202511.html Big night for Harry, (and Eunan O'Kane) whose Bournemouth side can secure promotion with a win against Bolton later this evening. The Cherries have a second bite of the, er, cherry, if they should slip up tonight, with a win against Charlton away on the final day also guaranteeing them Premier League status for next season.

It'll be interesting to see how Arter fairs at a higher level next season, and whether O'Kane will be retained. Wilson looks a useful player, but are there any grounds to believe he's given any sort of serious consideration towards the prospect of an international career with Ireland? He's been named in the last several England U-21 squads, expressing his pride at being called up for the first time back in November, telling the BBC; "It's something every player dreams about, getting to represent your country is a fantastic achievement,".

Quotes worth highlighting from Harry: "The Football Association of Ireland got in touch with me as I made my way through the ranks at Charlton and I started playing for the junior Irish teams," he said. "I was made to feel very welcome in Ireland, so when someone from the English FA came and asked me if I would be interested in a call-up for them, it wasn't a big decision for me to turn it down. "I have always felt a loyalty to Ireland and not just because I've got so many family members in the country and having spent many a happy summer holiday in Ireland when I was a kid; it's always felt like my country. "So the idea of playing international football for England has never been in my radar. I want to play for Ireland. I have always wanted that." http://www.espnfc.com/blog/espn-fc-united-blog/68/post/2428098/afc-bournemouths-harry-arter-excited-to-play-in-the-prem ------------- You asked if I'd be anyone from history, fact or fiction, dead or alive: I said "I'd be Tony Cascarino, circa 1995" |

Neither is Whelan. Arter offers something entirely different than what our current midfield have - Left-footed (Unusual for a center midfielder) energetic, looks for pockets outside the box the forwards have left behind. I would love to see Arter start and McCarthy in a more deep sitting playmaker role.

That's exactly what Whelan is, a holding midfielder. Any time Whelan is not on the pitch the midfield is unorganised and all over the place. When Whelan (and to a less extent McCarthy) went off against England our central midfielders were nowhere to be seen, which gave the England a hugh amount of space in the middle of the pitch. Arter could work well with Whelan in the team, as this would allow Arter to get into those forward positions and penetrate the opposition. ------------- It was far across the sea, When the devil got a hold of me, He wouldn't set me free, So he kept me soul for ransom. na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na.

We already have McCarthy to hold the midfield (and Gibson too when he's fit) so there's absolutely no need to have Whelan there, I'd hesitate to even have him the squad TBH. Arter is a box to box player, he gets forward well but also does his fair share of defensive work, he'd offer more than Whelan would, particularly playing alongside one(or both) of the aforementioned. ------------- We're decent enough.. |

Harry Arter is the future with McCarthy, said it months ago and got laughed at. Good with the play and has a bullet for a shot. Whelan is brilliant at holding the fort however, Arter is a threat he carries a goal threat anything from 15-20 yards you fancy him to let one rip and its usually unstoppable. Playing in the PL will bring him up a level in his game also Arter Whelan McCarthy would be great 3 man midfielder post this match. |

It's pretty hilarious that people have already latched onto Arter's positioning being a supposed weak-point, because I know exactly where it's come from. The co-commentator on Setanta mentioned that the midfield had lost it's solidity since Arter came on due to him being less disciplined in his positioning. Sure enough, despite possibly having never seen him play before it becomes a buzzword to criticise him with before his international career has even gotten going. ------------- We're decent enough.. |

With respect, you get laughed at in most threads. Again, how have you come to the conclusion that Arter will be the future with McCarthy after 20 mins of football in an Ireland jersey. There is no evidence that will be the case. None what so ever. Actually there is no evidence to suggest anything considering that this is the first squad he has made and his brief cameo appearance. He did, in his 20 minute appearance do pretty well.

I do think he will be in future squads and if he plays the same way as he did against England he will have earned his place in the team\squad. It's still early days though. Arter from what I have seen him is more of an attacking midfielder, Whelan is a holding midfielder, the total opposite player than Whelan. ------------- It was far across the sea, When the devil got a hold of me, He wouldn't set me free, So he kept me soul for ransom. na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na.

Holy mother of f**k but there are some clowns on here. Whelan is probably the first name on the team sheet and deserves to be. He was absolutely magnificent on Sunday, constantly in the right place while cajoling those around him. I don't care what Sellotanta sports aid about Arter, he is not a holding midfield player. Not for Bournemouth and won't be for Ireland. P.S if tou don't think Whelan is a holding midfielder f**k off and watch cricket. ------------- Greed has won, big finance has won.

How exactly would you describe Whelan in that case?

Ya, but he is a new name to most of us, he has a trendy haircut, and seemingly the entire world of professional football relating to Ireland & Stoke keeps picking Whelan, even though it is clear to the intelligentsia on here that he is in fact useless, and we can't wait to get rid of him. It is only a matter of time before Arter is captain of both Ireland & Bournemouth, before being sold to Real Madrid. He looks a decent footballer, and I did watch about 4 or 5 of Bournemouth's games toward the end of last season, but no, I wouldn't think he is any kind of defensive or holding midfielder. To be fair to him, neither did I notice any lack of positional sense within their system, he puts himself about when the ball is in the middle, when the opposition have the ball, and generally tries to join the attack from a support role (kind of think of him as a lesser Frank Lampard type if you will) when Bournemouth are going forward. That isn't any kind of extensive research, maybe some lads that have watched them more know more than I do on him, think he will be a good addition to us, but as is normal for those on here, any kind of decent debut that a player manages to avoid scoring 2 OG's automatically means a starting spot is the next step. Could easily see him moving ahead of Gibson though as regards our options. ------------- Picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue..... |

Watched him a handy few times this season and saw him live last. A holding midfielder he is not! ------------- Greed has won, big finance has won. Whatever small role elite clubs still play in the local communities from which they grew is dwarfed now by their position as global brands. |

would disagree there, he is very much a defensive midfielder, far more so than you would consider gibson, hendrick or even the likes of stephen quinn. seeing him play about 7 or 8 times for bounrnemouth. looks alot better at ball retention too, he is the one that will displace whelan, btw im not saying saturday , but certainly in the next 12 months. ------------- My Views are my own and do not in any way represent this site.

Lads are getting a bit carried away wanting him to start our most important game in years I would wonder how many times these people have actually watched him play

If I wasto give him a fancy tag or one lifted from football manager, I would say he is a box to midfielder in style, like a younger Keane (no way comparable in terms of ability before some other idiot finds their underwear knotting). He is in no way similar to Whelan. He doesn't hold position, he looks to hassle and harry (as usual, all puns intended, even horrific ones) the ball and then drive forward. His passing and shooting are good. He gives something different to ateam then Glenn but we are so reliant on Glenn and most of the illuminati on here can't see it ------------- Greed has won, big finance has won.

| On Whelan I always thought he was useless back in 2008-10 period but the more caps he has played the more I realise how good a job he does and has done in terms of balancing the midfield. Playing in a stoke team that consistently comes in the top 10 in the premiership shows that he's a better player than he's given credit for. |
