I just thought that he could do a bit better than Birmingham, but nonetheless will score goals, possibly the ones which keep you up. Alongside someone like Bendtner he would be brilliant, unfortunately I think Arsenal will have to keep him this year.

kaka4chelsea (U7305998) posted Jun 23, 2007 i think this will turn out to be one of the best value for money transfers of the summer if o'connor gets enough games. At the start of his career he was always great at holding the ball up and shooting from distance but now he has everything, he has great close control, he is good at headers, he is not afraid to use his left foot and he seems to have added pace to his game. I think off all the great hibs prospects, gary o'connor has the most potential. Hibs have or should i say had a team of players who were all capable of playing in the epl or championship. Watch out for ivan sproule next year if he does join bristol city in the end. I can name a few more hibs players who could make the grade down south who are steven whittaker, david murphy, guillame beuzeulin, ivan sproule, adesellam benjeloun and mouranne zemmama. keep an eye out for some of those players in the future and of course scott brown who is now at celtic along with his former team mate chris killen.

desi_skills (U8366041) posted Jun 25, 2007 You Brummyzzz have an excellent player in O'Conner. He is potentially the best Scottish player of this generation. This guy has the heart and football brain of a young Kenny Dalgliesh. Comment on this article |
