Jamey Osborne

Quoted from dapperz fun pub

Jamie Osbourne should play imo you fit your better players in the team

Well he clearly wasn't fit when he left but hopefully will be when he's back  

I honestly believe some people do not operate to the best of their ability in the cold.  The cold never bothered me when playing sunday league and in a few occassions i had the upper hand.  

However Jones is one of our best players and i love it (not) when fishy folk single him out just because of an "off day" and probably the same folk saying Summerfield is awful now saying he is the best player for POTY lol.

Well if they keep playing him for 90 mins game after game I don't know if this is a help or a threat to fitness. Not really the way I would be running rehabilitation after serious injury - probably more of a gradual build up, especially on poor pitches against lumpers and kickers, but what do I know? I'm not a physio. If he's their best player they're going to want him on the pitch all the time aren't they. I've never been convinced that this is the right way to look after our valuable player, as it seems that Solihull and Jamey's wishes trump ours.

Currently despite DJ's positive contributions to the team I would put JO on the left hand side. Whilst he is not as quick as DJ he is no slouch, drifts by players easily and whats more has that football brain to, see the right pass. Had he been playing yesterday with a ll that space I believe he would have been able to either score himself or lay on passes that should have ensured his team mates could not miss, which given their shooting ability yesterday is quite an ask!!

Jones had a poor game but that happens to all players and he is our most dangerous player in the box and like Jamie really has to start.

Yep - we've already got a right footed left back, so why not? I'm not a Woolford fan but I would play Woolford wide left before putting a centre mid in that position. Berrett tried it last year and got berated for it.

Well he came on there against Swindon & laid on the winning goal, plus I would expect us to have signed a left footed full back in January. Appreciate you're a big Berrett fan but IMO Osbourne a far better footballer who would have no trouble playing on the left.

Thought he played out wide a few times last season, including the game v Yeovil when he scored that golden goal, but may be my memory playing tricks on me.

Nothing to do with my opinion of Berrett, more to do with my dislike of putting square pegs in round holes. I'd like to see us playing 3 centre mids with three in front.

I would rather see Osborne or Bolarinwa come on than Woolford he added nothing yesterday.

I did say I'm not a Woolford fan - I'd like to see a new left back and an out and out left sided attacker in January.

Playing Osborne wide isn't ideal, but playing a creative central midfielder there isn't really the same as playing a play ticking over central midfielder there.
