Bbrovers2288 Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 Surely some sort of pun with the signings of Thomas , cook, hopefully rest of our players aren’t on the beach by now already 3 Quote

RoversClitheroe Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 O'Brien in and Morton sent back would be fantastic business 9 Quote
Popular Post Rochdale_rover Posted January 31, 2023 Popular Post Posted January 31, 2023 O'brien would be our best midfielder by a mile . Was brilliant at Huddersfield . Honestly think a midfielder is needed more than any position . Ours is awful 12 Quote

Proven top quality championship midfielder. Shocked at that, we've been as awful if not worse in midfield this season than up front. 4 Quote
bluebruce Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 This must be the stupidest thing I've seen Sharpe post in a while: '6:16pm The talk all month of Rovers not having any money and potentially signing up for what would be a record fee in the summer. What a club. ' It's a record fee if we go up, at which point obviously we will have money. Duh. Unless it's a mandated summer buy even if we stay down, in which case I'd be absolutely and utterly astonished. 1 Quote

Decent striker is far more difficult too find and tend to cost alot more. If you gamble on one and it doesn't pay off it's a lot more noticeable too. 1 Quote
Rochdale_rover Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 This is why we need O'brien. The perfect midfielder for the championship. Everything morton could only dream of being https://www.google.com/search?q=lewis+o'brien&prmd=niv&sxsrf=AJOqlzX34ryIqesConqwiZ-b6PoyPwBcDw:1675189755073&source=lnms&tbm=vid&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjc8aCSuPL8AhVRUcAKHa3UDXIQ_AUoA3oECAIQAw&biw=412&bih=782&dpr=2.63#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:e131727a,vid:OFHfrqxyjnQ Quote

When we played Forest at Ewood last season Cook never put a foot wrong all night. Signing him was a master stroke for Forest last season. Quote

Does anybody know, when O'Brien excelled at Huddersfield, was he playing in a central midfield 2, or a 3? Quote

Fraserkirky Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 O’Brien would be first name on the team sheet. Phenomenal midfielder 5 Quote

neophox Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 Still hopeful we get a striker in before deadline. Quote
BankEnd Rover Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 Not too fussed about cook. We need a striker, simple. 3 Quote

I imagine if it's going as reported that he has already indicated he is interest. Surely he can't be linked all day and be reported as "edging closer" for him to just say "nah". It's clearly a runner. Quote

By default even our current crop of strikers should improve with Obrien picking the ball up making things happen going forward. If it fails now I'd be gutted, if it happens it's a huge coup. 3 Quote

AJW Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 I honestly think if we were win for a striker a name would be out there by now 2 Quote
ItsRoverZ Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 Shame about cook! Him and hyam would of been a brilliant partnership, cook offers leadership and experience at the back in which we lack a little Quote
TugaysMarlboro Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 Midfielder then striker in that order for me. So I'm glad to see this O'Brien move might happen. I'd be hopeful we send one of ours out on loan though to get some experience. Quote

Be just like rovers "oh shit he's actually here, quick doc find something with the medical, anything!!!...yes so Mr.O' Brien turns out you are pregnant so we are gonna have to pull the plug, sorry. Send word to Pune, we've done it again!" 4 Quote
