Oscar Bobb

[Centurions]

Hopefully next on the loan list.

Waste of time him playing EDS now,much like it was with Doyle and McAtee.

Gundogan leaves on a free this Summer, McAtee returns and takes his squad place, Bobb seamlessly takes his place on loan. Simples :)

Bellingham might have something to say about part of the above plan ;-)

Bellingham to Sheffield United on loan? Can't see it myself.

This guy should be getting far more praise than he does. He is so underrated.

Borges and Mebude have put up some serious numbers in the U23's this season, but Bobb has been my U23 player of the season.

Just seems to control games with ease. Wonderful balance, lovely left foot, so skilful and wonderful football intelligence and vision.

He is the one player in the U23's right now I am most excited about in terms of breaking into the City first team squad.

I think selling him would be a mistake. What will be our loss will be someone else's gain. Brilliant little player.

He's my number 1 pick from the U23's as well.

He's also quite literally tailor made for our team to play in the half spaces in one of our 8/10 spots, and considering how old Kevin and Gundogan are, I think he has the best chance to make.

He has that 'pausa' that Pep any everyone keeps talking about.

I don't think he has missed a game, and also lasts the full 90 minutes. My player of the year also.

What I love about him is, he can play pretty much anywhere and Pep loves versatile players.

He played false nine v Chelsea, got man of the match and was superb. Played in midfield v United and Arsenal if I remember rightly and pulled the strings. For me he was the best player on the pitch in both of these games too at home. He also played left back in the second half v Arsenal and was brilliant at left back too. Won a fair amount of duels/tackles and was just really tidy in possession.

I really want to see him get a chance for us. Has all the technical qualities to make it with us, love the way he just glides with the ball. He is like a cross between Leroy Sane and David Silva stylistically. Just needs to build up a bit more physically, but that will come when he plays senior football. He already shields the ball so well anyway, similar to the way David Silva used to shield it.

Really excited about him. Just hope we do the right thing and keep him with the squad.

I agree,in my view he has been the best 'all round' mid-fielder this season,also the most mobile. At the beginning of the season I thought that what position he played dictated the teams performances. As you say if we had a man sent off or injured he slotted into the fullback role.

According to the official site Oscar Bobb has won the EDS Player of the Year for the second year running. A great achievement when you think of last years EDS 'stars' and him playing different roles this year.

Sorry, I posted somewhere in this thread that he hadn't missed a game, but it seems that he missed one game.
Well done to early posters who recognised his performances.

Reminds me a little of Silva at times. When he’s in possession, the game just seems to stop for a fraction of a second and he’s able to thread it through the eye of a needle or put it on a plate for someone. The ball just arrives at the right time and at the right pace, so the teammates don’t need to break stride. Effortless.
