  1. Okore is considered a capable and aggressive defender, who is calm on the ball and a good reader of the game, with leadership qualities.

    This sentence is very encouraging. We could really do with this type of player. A Danish African CB, very enticing.

    Sounds very good, let’s give Jores Okore a go

  2. I follow the Danish League closely and Okore is by far the best defender in the League. He is very Young and there is no doubt his qualities will grant him a huge carreer. You all remember Martin Laursen. I believe Okore will reach at least the same level.

  3. Magnus – You serious!? AT LEAST the same level? Get him in, even if we have to pay double what we’ve offered so far. I’m so excited about next season already its ridiculous, we havent even signed anyone yet

  4. Villa need a player like this – a revelation in the game vs Chelsea – will transform the Villa defence as Benteke has transformed the attack – pay the money!!!
