Aiston Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 Great news tbh. Has never let us down. I mean, he has basically given Arsenal two goals in our last two games against them, knocking us out of the FA Cup in the process Still, he has been more good than bad for us.

Consortium of one Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 I wouldn't have resigned him. He's the kind of player we need to get off the wage bill. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 A quiet, solid PL defender who either sees his contract out with no fuss in whatever order he ends up in or he's sold for a decent amount of money to a club around us or in the Championship. This one is actually a sensible extension IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conjo Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 Solid back-up player, probably on low wages. If there was a possibility to upgrade CBs I'd rather upgrade on one of the 4 ahead of him as they would not likely be happy sitting out matches like he seemingly is.

I wish we had 4th choice strikers and midfielder in all positions as good as he is at the back. Easy decision to sign him up for another 2 years. Don’t confuse (not you Congo, others) this smart move with the stupid decision to give the same to shelvey and Ritchie. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 A CB like Clark can get a job done in the PL for quite some time and even at lower levels. A player like Ritchie and Shelvey, not so much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shearergol Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 We wouldn't even be discussing this if our manager hadn't alienated our two best defenders though. There should be 4 centre backs ahead of him, instead he's a first team regular. Think I'm more pissed off that it's clear we'll never take Lejeune back.

Deuce Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 He has NEVER let us down. Has never let us down. This is an odd turn of phrase for the context, let alone to be used twice. Is this a forum meme I missed? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beth Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 He is what he is, a half decent 5th choice CB when everyone is fit. Can't complain about his contribution since he came here when he cost so little. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give over man, the main reason that goal occurred was due to a carthorse like Wood easily getting by Clark to put the cross in. He was also at fault earlier in the move, with a dreadful header out of defence, which give the ball back to Burnley in the first place.

Clark hasn't been as good this season but he's not been awful. Today was a pen, and sloppy but he was trying to be aggressive, just caught him on the arm.
