But that’s exactly it, others are saying he has been because Robins is prioritising those who are here next season. There’s a lot of valid points about O’Hare not being as good as Hamer and Gyokeres were, but right now I can’t agree with him being on the bench. Also based on the minutes he’s...

Fair enough, agree to disagree. I’m sure the next 12 months will tell us where he’s at. I do think there’s some bias and wilful ignorance in some of that opinion though. You’re glazing over some very good performances, his transformative impact when he came back from injury, and the fact that...

My point was that he has the quality and potential to play for a league winning side. I don’t think your question is valid when those sides already have a player in that position. If you took KDH out at Leicester and Rutter out at Leeds then IMO he could slot into those teams and they’d still...

We obviously have a difference of opinion, as this thread shows, so it’s pointless trying to persuade you otherwise. Though I’m obviously right and you are completely wrong.. The daft comments though, like, ‘we need better than O’Hare next season’. Do we!? If we could replace him like for like...

I felt like he had a couple of poor games, Preston and then particularly West Brom. He’s not irreplaceable and Robins might be doing the right thing, and O’Hare hasn’t been amazing. However, surely you’ve seen enough of O’Hare over the years to know he SHOULD be first name on the teamsheet...

Revisionist crap as usual on O’Hare. It’s been clear it’s to do with off the field stuff rather than O’Hare quality and what he brings to them team. I’d always back Robins and he can do what he wants, but it is annoying that this has happened and our best, and most important player, has been...

My defence for Hamer would be, he’s played in the worst side in the division (as bad as any for some time as well), often out of position. Would half of those players have looked any good in those circumstances? He’s got 9 g/a - not the end of the world, and I could see him doubling those...

Some were very down in the mouth about O’Hare based on a handful of games, as well. Not directed at you btw, but from my pov it was more about O’Hare’s absence, which I felt was ridiculous. I used Palmer as reference to say I felt O’Hare was a better player. That isn’t doing one player down...

He always looked like he struggled to think he belonged in the side. Now he does, he’s only getting better.

That’s the line up I wanted to see, back four with O’Hare and Palmer. PUSB

But you’ve surely watched COH enough to know he’s top level in this division? He’s had max a handful of games where he wasn’t up to his normal level. His spell on the bench is more related to him leaving than anything, convinced of that.

Bang on.

No he wasn’t. And 15 minutes when we were playing like that proves nothing. O’Hare is one of the best in the division, even if you don’t agree with that it’s a widely held view. And that team can’t fit him in?

We missed everything about him.

@Martin180 stand by your view? You’d stick with Palmer>O’Hare? Hindsight a wonderful thing, but I don’t think you need it to know we’re worse off without O’Hare in the side.

He’s our best player for my money. Had a couple of games where he didn’t play well. We’re good enough that it works without him as well, and if Robins is prioritising players and a side that will be here longer term then great. But let’s not pretend O’Hare warrants being benched based on...

Ridiculous.

Two nerds playing football chess. Pep one of the greats but I’ll be pleased when he leaves the PL

Ok Martin, please ease off the gas slightly. O’Hare>Palmer isn’t a controversial opinion. And it’s not like O’Hare can’t play on the break and combine well with other players. I’m not slagging Palmer, and it moves away from my original point. If O’Hare had signed a new deal in Jan, I think...

Well I’d play him ahead of Palmer every day of the week. Not saying Palmer isn’t playing brilliantly, but he is a bit of a flat track bully. Against Leeds and Southampton we need O’Hare at full tilt.
