O’Hare looked like a new born lamb crossing the road on his first day
Hamer is quality and multiple levels above O’Hare. So now he’s just been taken off, after contributing nothing but a curtain based hairstyle .
No doubt he’ll be on tick tock in a red and white wig singing songs, and supporting every Sheffield band telling the crowd he’s one of their own.
He will be lost very soon, and shown inept if he reaches the Prem. Yes he was good at championship level with us, but quite soon he will be on loan at Forest Green Rovers, you have my word
Hamer we really miss, OHare and his fancy flicks and non tackle approach , we can replace
Just watch his performances at Sheffield they are very poor

Doubt he’d go as low as forest green when he’d walk into our team and be our best player

Funnily enough I was wondering before the game what two weeks off would do to Hamer.

The first, however obscure they try to make it, true franchise in English football. Forget Mk Dons they don’t have a multi European backer, Leeds do

Why sadly? Would really annoy Leeds fans if they ever tried to change the name! That said I doubt it could actually happen here under FA rules.

They have been the better team. That Rothwell has been brilliant for Leeds in the centre. Their squad is ridiculous really.

For christs sake, you use the lowest level and if he goes better than that , bloody good on him.
Right to appease for CCfcparks issues, OHare may be a good league 1 and 2 player, even if he stops being a patronising twat, he may get into Sheffield Wednesday’s first team, but in my opinion , he won’t go much farther and he will retire wearing a Forest Green Rovers Wig, and attending every singer who supports FGR, saying I’m FGR till I die.
I hope CCFC parks can finally be happy and stop criticising every post, without starting their own posts. He’s quite painful to deal with, god knows what he’s like to deal with after he comes out of the house he shares with his mummy & daddy , I have no clue

O'Hare is a good championship player but he also wasn't the best player at us when he was here.

Just read this on their forum

O’Hare 3/10 – Non-existent and starting to annoy me now. Frustrating again and not a threat. Lost the ball easily, went to ground pathetically and weakly and not able to hold the ball. Just looked completely lost and not a factor. Needs taking out of the team. Just looks a bit of a nothing player to me. I keep hear he works hard but I am not seeing it. Teams just knock him off like a fly

Because we’ve done so well without him this season. He’s a class player at this level, of course we miss him

I was gonna say I didn't think they were overly impressed with him? Are people on here just looking at their league position and assuming he's been great?
Hamer on the other will be the main reason they are promoted, if they are to achieve that. I'm still not sure on them personally.

It hurts me to say, but Leeds have an exceptional duo in Tanaka and Rothwell in midfield.

Especially when you consider that's their backups. Ampadu & Gruev both injured.

The O’Hare revisionism is ridiculous. The man was class for us. I don’t care what the Sheffield Utd fans think, he made us tick. Even when not at his best his work rate was phenomenal, certainly higher than the majority in our current team

Pre injury/Burnley saga, his main asset was his work rate. It was universally acknowledged that his end product was poor but he was like having an extra DM off the ball and he could get his way out of tight spaces.

After the injury his work rate and tackling back went through the floor and he improved his end product (possibly because he wasn’t tracking back as much). Once the transfer window closed his end product went too.

This is all backed by the stats.

That he wasn't our best player last year and he wasn't. Simms and Wright for example were better for longer periods.

We do miss his pressing but the only "revisionism" here would be say he was our best player last year.

It’s no coincidence that Simms and Wright started to click when O’Hare returned to the team. He made space for others, he was an important cog for us and we haven’t replaced that

Yep pretty much this. He went from running his bollocks off and pressing from the front but not being able to hit anything on target harder than a pass back, to suddenly being lethal, to suddenly being none of these

Yes it is and they played well in games he was rubbish in or didn't play it at all.

You keep up the revisionism, he was not our best player last year
