Nico O'Reilly signs new contract until 2030

[ninjamonkey]

Delighted for him. Well deserved. He might give Ait Nouri a run for his money for the starter LB spot.

Might? O'Reilly is the clear starting lb right now. Ait-Nouri is the one who will be looking to give O'Reilly a challenge for a starting spot when he's back.

Posted in the Matchday Thread v Huddersfield that I really like this lad. Just goes about his business, no bells and whistles, no hype, just a very good young footballer who I think is going to get better and better. This is good news

 

[aka blue jambo]

He is a real talent

 

[KS55]

Pep thinks he could play in almost every position. He is an 8 or a 10 by training and inclination. Highly talented.
Where does Pep keep finding these left backs?!
I remember a certain CF converting to left back, the wonderful Glyn Pardoe.

 

[MCFC1993]

He's got a very bright future, filling in at left back brilliantly but could see him in centre mid down the line.

Very important to sort it out as Chelsea were sniffing 12 months ago.

Fabulous news.

He's clearly come through the academy as a midfielder. But he hasn't let us down filling in at LB. The new Fabian Delph!

 

[JRockBlues]

Really happy for him. Fully deserved it too.

He's had some great players to learn from in his more natural midfield role with the likes of Gundogan, Kovacic and now Reijnders. His future is bright.

He's a player and a good size too. He can run with the ball as well, just needs to improve end product. I can see him being like a man Tank similar to Yaya in his pomp.

Doing well the lad. X

I think that is where he will end up, running things in midfield.

When he popped up to score a brace in the cup last year, it was very Gundog like.

If Pep picks you you’re a very good footballer.

 

[JRockBlues]

Who's chopping onions?

 

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

I think he’s actually underrated by some. I honestly think he’s one of the best young prospects in the league currently.

First choice left back for me.

That's all I need to know about his character, love this.

 

[TinFoilHat]

Another part of the next gen rebuild locked in.

Hopefully a statue for him at the end of his career to.

2030, jesus!

That's a date from Science Fiction!

 

[Matt Diablo]

Fantastic always rated him

 

[Dazzle84]

As much as it's richly deserved on football merit alone, it's bloody lovely to see such a nice young lad get his rewards too. Delighted for him and for us having him

 

[MCFCFanTX]

Love this. Wonderful news!
