    Hard introduction to English football with a debut to forget against Patrice Evra and Man Utd and a failed loan spell in the Championship with Middlesbrough, but he's really settled in the lower divisions. It'd be interesting to see if he makes the most of his second chance in the Championship if Chesterfield go up.

    Strachan really threw him under the bus with some of the comments he made about him.

    What did Strachan say about him?

    "Well, he's breathing, and got a pulse."

    Middlesbrough boss Gordon Strachan when asked on BBC Tees about the qualities new loan signing Jay O'Shea would bring to the side, lamenting Boro's lack of midfielders.

    https://untypicalboro.wordpress.com/...omment-page-1/

    JAMES O’SHEA: Irish international ‘run quickly down blind alley then stumble’ merchant O’Shea was one of the conveyor belt of loanees that passed through while Strachan was treading water in his first season. He was so anonymous he changed his name from Jay after his first game and no-one noticed for weeks. Two games.

    Pretty sure he said that the day he signed, ie he's got a pulse so we can use him.

    The first quote is a compliment (or a positive comparison to the mids that Strachan was replacing him with) and the second excerpt is not a quote of Strachan's. A quick glance at the article doesn't seem to contain any quotes from Strachan either..

    Yes it seems more a dig at the rest of the squad! Or basically just saying they need to improve the squad?

    sounds like on of the usual soundbites or one liners to come from Strachan alright. Don't think it was particularly offensive. Going by the date on that link, it was the same week as his first (of two!) appearances for Boro, so it could have been made in a press conference before the game itself.

    Ack, Stu, you're letting rational critical thinking get in the way of having a cheap go at Strachan!

    10% not bad for a less than glamorous club like the Spireites (although "The Sofas" might be better nickname).

    Ben Alnwick (Bolton Wanderers) 45 %
    Patrick Bauer (Charlton Athletic) 19 %
    Jay Emmanuel-Thomas (Gillingham) 14 %
    Jay O'Shea (Chesterfield) 10 %
    Scott Wiseman (Scunthorpe United) 7 %
    Will Atkinson (Southend United) 5 %

    Club on the up - hope he succeeds there although a recent home 0-2 defeat by Fleetwood came as a bit of a surprise no doubt for the worthy folk of Bramall Lane.

    Released by relegated Chesterfield but is hoping his performances for champions Sheffield United earn him a contract there.
