Obita

[Greensunshine]

I started a thread a few weeks back by the same headline.
I criticised the guy for switching off in the box, well it looks like he’s obviously read my comments because he’s been top drawer ever since.

Had a fantastic game tonight. He looked strong and so assured on the ball, great positioning also.
If only we had an Obita on the opposite flank.

[Onceinawhile]

Fantastic tonight.

[Vault Boy]

Excellent performance from a very good fullback. Delighted that he’s stayed injury free and put such a consistent streak together. The guy is so composed and his deliveries are amongst the most consistently dangerous I’ve seen from a Hibs wide player. May well be worth an extension as IIRC he signed a 2-year deal.

[Tambo]

One of, if not our best player tonight.

[we are hibs]

Really like him.

Thought he was excellent until the Aberdeen semi then was poor until the winter break. Has came back excellent again though. He's really really good on the ball. Possibly the best technically since Murphy at full back

[neil7908]

I was unsure about him earlier in the season but he's been great recently. We could replace the other 4 players in defence and I wouldn't be fussed but he's definitely nailed down that position.

[nickwhibs]

Our best player tonight imo

[Unseen work]

I say it every week, he is absolutely class.

One of the best left backs in the league

Seen a fair bit of Murphy in him tonight. Great game, well played Jordan.

Obita is class. A quality player. Thought Miller played very well tonight too. Hardly put a foot wrong, won a lot of challenges, and got forward well too.

[WestStandWillie]

His previous club were gutted when we signed him. We’re seeing why! Has taken to that formation with ease.

Loved Mr Murphy...what a player he was..so comparing amyone to him is praise indeed 👍

[Bostonhibby]

Classy player, really enjoy watching him.

I thought Ulrik Laursen was one of the best left sided players we've had.

He was a composed, elegant player.

Obita has the very same qualities and will hopefully be as good as Laursen.

[supermcginn]

Very impressed with him tonight, best left back we've had since Murphy.

[The Spaceman]

I said earlier in the season he was solid enough but we need to aim higher. Happy to say I was 100% wrong.

Brilliant player. Has all the attributes and brings real energy to our game both defensively and offensively. My Player of the Season so far.

[SolentHibee]

There was a looping ball played to him in the second half and he just killed it dead. If his name was Murphy he’d be deified

[LewysGot2]

Our best player tonight over 90 mins. Proper football player. Contrasts with the coarser, less technical approach of Miller.

[yerauldda]

No idea how he’s found himself at Hibs. Surely could’ve found a club in the championship. Ridiculously good.

[Hiber-nation]

Man of the match. Again. So classy.

[Hibeesdaft16]

He's absolutely fantastic. Genuine class. We haven't had a full back as good since Laursen and even then he's probably better.

Just sold ma car........

[WeeRussell]

Easily the best defender we’ve got.

That is pretty much my view too. Started the season off like a house on fire, went off the boil and has really came into it again since the break. Strong, quick, up and down the park, great crosser and defensively much improved too

[Nicho87]

Such a good crosser.

Just what defenders hate

[duffers]

Best player on the park

I think Ulrik was more commanding in both boxes, a real threat at corners.
Obita looks a proper player though. Someone I’m happy to come and watch every week.

[King Cosell]

Regular in the Reading team that finished 3rd in the Championship in 2016/17, had a few injuries after that, but he's as good now as he was then (possibly better). He's at his peak.

[matty_f]

He’s been terrific. Has a bit of everything that you want from a full back.

[Logie]

POTY for me. Consistent can do it all, great player.

We need players to start gambling and getting on the end of them. Puts some unbelievable balls in, can’t believe he doesn’t have an assist to his name.

Was very good tonight. He actually had a very good chance in the second half, not the one that hit the post, but scuffed it a bit and it got deflected for a corner. Needs to keep at it and things will fall for him.
