Osho

Thoughts on his full debut?

He did a lot of stuff right - apart from needlessly diving in for the penalty.

He can pass, he's relatively quick and seems a good personality.

I would expect him and Lawlor to be first choice CBs in the future.

Way too early to say, but I can definitely see him being our main man. Any one can give a penalty away, he’s not the first and won’t be the last it doesn’t concern me.

He looked quick can pass through the lines and is not scared to drive forward with the ball under pressure, yes he gave away a penalty but shit happens, overall he looks a good footballer

Can’t disagree with any of that.

I didn't think he covered himself in glory with the 3rd goal either. Looks like he can play though so we'll see

Was unconvinced by him in the Vertu trophy game, against the opinion of the commentator that night, and unconvinced by him again yesterday. Can’t put my finger on why though. Penalty foul was reckless and a clear penalty, which showed lack of experience/composure to me.

I think the combination between Fish and Osho was one of the big negatives yesterday. Osho still early days at the club.

For me the driving forward was due to a lack of available options through the usual channels they’ve been coached to play through. Nice to see direct running from a CB regardless. There weren’t options for him once he broke that first line though. Something to work on this week.

I dont know if he has played in the position before, but the way he was breaking forward from deep and the quality of his passing indicates he would make a great defensive midfield player.

We missed Lawlor big time. We've played much better with Fish and Lawlor. Osho has come in, and we looked for more vulnerable to leaking goals at the back.

The one part of our team that didn't need changing was the back four and keeper, so he'll be good back up for now.

I think we have the international break to thank for that

lawlor and kpakio haven't played together since before the break(I think)

if we didn't have that break I doubt bbm would have changed it unless it was for a cup game

I don't see us dropping Fish and that would be a mistake. A good team is made up of partnerships. Lawlor and Osho are ball playing CBs but they both need a Fish type CB to make them effective. He is the only dominating CB we have in the squad.

I honestly think osho would make a great number 6 he's mobile fast can pass and run with the ball I wouldn't mind seeing him in that role which allows lawler and fish to stay together

My feelings exactly. We need a ball winner in midfield who can pass and drive forward from deep. Fits those credentials ideally.
