Matt Clarke

[Otto42]

Getting better each time he plays, considering he's been out so long. Going to be an important player and probably saves us getting a centre back in January.

 

[Diego]

Assist for the big man too. Good sub from Carrick. Brought us back some control with the change of shape.

 

[Alzi]

I think he will be in for Fry soon.

 

[TeaCider]

Would sooner have him starting than Fry at the moment.

He's going through a sticky patch right now.

 

[Corcaigh_the_Cat]

Looks to have time on the ball, brings it out well. Could be a cracking signing.

 

[Diego]

Same. Fry is a very good player but he has too many howlers and lapses of concentration.

 

[The Disciple]

Handy lad to have around - his lack of pace is his big weakness though, but pretty good positionally and a good header of the ball

 

[Badonde]

Nice to see a bit of aggression at corners at long last

 

[TeaCider]

Sounds like Dijksteel is injured from Carrick's post match, so we might well have VDB at right back again on Monday.

 

[Juninhoburger]

Clarke and VDB for Coventry please, although with Dijksteel going off injured VDB will probably be moved to RB

 

[Quicksilvera]

Clarke and Van den berg could be our Ferdinand and vidic but better!

 

[TheYorkshireTerrier]

Definitely go VDB and Clarke as the two centre backs vs Coventry IF Dijksteel is fit.

Him, coburn, crooks , and to a lesser point VDB given us so much physicality in both boxes .
It's much harder set piece planning with fry, lath / silvera and Rodgers in the same positions

 

[Hazzinho]

Glad he's back, was player of the year for WBA before joining us, deffo good to have competition for places at the back and keep them all on their toes.

 

[Boro_Madrid]

I thought his assist today was absolute class. Most players would try and get a header on goal or at least in the direction of the goal, but to pull it back when under pressure was a smart move.

 

[Chutney]

Would rather see Jones at RB than move Rav out of his best position. Jones, Rav, Clarke and Engel would be my choice.

Then you have the issue of who to play RW. We're so short of options at the minute all over the pitch.

I don't mind doing it.

The rest of us do.

The rest of us do.

Rightly so
