Peter Canavan says Con O’Callaghan is developing into the complete footballer.
O’Callaghan bullied the Roscommon defence in Croke Park on Saturday night, delivering a Man of the Match display that belied his tender years in the Phase II Super 8s clash.
Tyrone legend Canavan was suitably impressed: “The continued upward learning curve of Con O'Callaghan is interesting. He is now so central to this Dublin team in terms of his ball-winning capacity,” the 2003 and 2005 All-Ireland winner told Sky Sports.
“He can win the ball whatever way, any way it comes in. We all know he's a goalscorer, but now he's setting up colleagues for scores as well.
“He's developing into a real all-round footballer. We saw further evidence of that on Saturday, as he scored 0-2 and was named Man of the Match.”
