Having become one of the darlings of Lyon supporters and Pierre Sage, Jake O'Brien nevertheless left OL after only one season in the Rhône. The start of his adventure at Everton is still far from satisfying him.
OL disappointed again on Saturday evening against Toulouse. Uninspired in the offensive sector, the Lyon team especially frightened its supporters behind. Pierre Sage cannot be satisfied with the performance of his central defenders. Moussa Niakhaté is often feverish, Duje Caleta-Car misses many matches and what can we say about Warmed Omari guilty of a huge blunder on Bourgoin's second goal last Wednesday. A starter at the end of last season, Jake O'Brien is missed by some supporters, especially as his effectiveness on offensive set pieces was formidable. But, the Irishman could also indulge in nostalgia.
O'Brien hopes to play more under David Moyes
Recruited for nearly 20 million euros by Everton, O'Brien has been used very little by the Toffees this season. He only played 6 matches in all competitions, without making the slightest start in the Premier League. Questioned by the Liverpool Echothe Irish international could not hide his frustration. If he says he does not regret his transfer, he wants to play much more under the direction of his new manager David Moyes than with Sean Dyche.
-« I think I need to start playing more. I knew it wouldn't be easy to play matches, but I thought I would have played a lot more than I did. But I guess it's only half a season and there's still another half of the season to go and I think I can play my part in this half of the season and start getting more playing time It's been a frustrating six months, but I think the next half of the season is important for me to start playing matches. “, he blurted out. First element of response this Sunday since Everton hosts Tottenham for an important match in the fight to maintain the Liverpool club.
