Re: Jimmy Dunne
I beg to differ. He'll have a career in football but up in Scotland or at League 1/2 level imo.Woodleyclaret wrote:Good in air good distribution and a good tackler.Why get shut of him

Re: Jimmy Dunne
It'll be interesting to see what happens with him next year. He's clearly a long way from the Premier League so I guess it will depend on whether we can get him out at a lower-end Championship team for some appearances

Re: Jimmy Dunne
Not good that he wasn’t a starter for third tier Sunderland. A long way from our first team.

Re: Jimmy Dunne
My mates a Sunderland ST holder and said he was a bit of a clogger. Not sure if it was Dunne himself or the way they set up but that was what he reported back.

More experienced than Younger. Two years older and Younger has just had a difficult season with injuries.Im_not_Robbie_Blake wrote:A better prospect than Ollie Younger?

Re: Jimmy Dunne
A right footed Ben Mee but taller. Will never make it high up nowadays as he can't pass.

Re: Jimmy Dunne
Played well in our preseason friendlies against European opposition.I think it may be a case of some fans undervaluing our rising stars,a common theme at Burnley at times.

Re: Jimmy Dunne
A right footed, tall centre half who won’t make it at the top level? Sounds just like Ben Mee.superdimitri wrote:A right footed Ben Mee but taller. Will never make it high up nowadays as he can't pass.

Re: Jimmy Dunne
The lad himself hasn't got a clue where he will be playing next season.
He is training hard in Ireland and hoping!

And unlike McNeil unless named in our 25 both he and Agyei cannot be on the bench for

Re: Jimmy Dunne
I feel a bit sorry for Jimmy Dunne, he was doing so well at Hearts. Sunderland was a disaster.
Re: Jimmy Dunne
Hearts were doing well with JD, too!
Re: Jimmy Dunne
At 20 you will have been probably been playing football for 12 or 13 years. If you can’t pass the ball well by the time you are 20 my guess is that you ain’t going to improve that muchCharlieinNewMexico wrote:Because when you're 20 and have your career ahead of you nobody will teach you to pass, right?

Re: Jimmy Dunne
Unless you've been a centre half all your life and suddenly all centre halfs need to be Beckenbauer. It would be remiss, would it not, for a club to go "naaaaah, can't pass, get shut" rather than actually using those people they employ, you know, those coach people, to improve the passing.TVC15 wrote:At 20 you will have been probably been playing football for 12 or 13 years.

And very expensive to buy a ready made "passing center half" in.
Other than that, I see your point

Are you suggesting our coaches have not worked with him ?
I have seen him play only a couple of times and can’t remember much about him tbh. I’m not saying we should get rid of him.
I’m saying that after so many years already being coached and playing the game if his passing is as poor as Sunderland fans are saying personally I think it’s going to be hard for him to improve that much in that area. Doesn’t mean he can’t be a decent CB though.
Plenty of good CBs have not been great passers of the ball- Des Walker for example.
Re: Jimmy Dunne
I think a balanced back 4 is equally if not more important than having ball playing centre halves. You wouldnt want all of your back 4 in that mold. The Ben Mees of this world make the ball players look good by doing the gritty/un-noticed side.
Re: Jimmy Dunne
It is extremley rare that you see a complete defender these days, one who is great with and without the ball. Van Dijk fits this billing but neither Tarks or Maguire are anywhere near this standard yet.

Re: Jimmy Dunne
I've seen him a few times and he's a lump the ball into touch and up the line kind of player. He has no balance yet he has bricks for feet. He's a liability when the ball is at his feet which is no doubt why he does it. We can't move on and improve on what we have if we can't string passes together and lump it up the wing division 3 style.
