O'Kane's Republic Calling

Last updated : 05 March 2014 By Bournemouth Co-Ordinator

With a raft of internationals being played this week, one player who is staying at home in Bournemouth is Eunan O'Kane who has starred for the Cherries in recent weeks, showing a high level of consistency in performance, earning him many plaudits.

On O'Kane's recent performances and the chances of an international call-up, Eddie Howe is quoted as saying in the Bournemouth Evening Echo: "Eunan has been excellent for us. He really has developed and has been a key figure for us this season. He is very good technically and tactically and makes such good decisions for a young guy. He is a very brave player so we are really pleased to have him with us. He is still a really good age and young enough, I believe, to have a big impact on the international stage. But it is very much out of his hands and all he can control is how he performs for us".
