Sir Toon Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Ive been impressed with Clark since his first game here amidst the backdrop of Villa fans not giving a shit. Most said they'd have given him away and even drove him here themselves but in an organised defence with clear game plans, he's a contender for player of the season. He's already won the unsung one for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 What did we pay for him, £4.5m? Looks a steal for that. He's like the class version of Steve Taylor. No pointing, just actually defends. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menace Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Ha! Classic. Is that Mr Shelvey throwing some shapes in there? (Think I may have committed some kind of 'baldism'. ) Looks like Skrtel Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
afar Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Just a great signing, you really can't complain at the players Rafa bought, jury still out on Lazaar and Gamez has not gotten on the pitch enough but everyone of the others has made a significant contribution even Murphy who scored some vital goals for us in his little run of games. Clark, Ritchie and Gayle have been key components in our team for a combine fee of around what we got for Gini that's not bad business at all.

Leazes_End_Mag Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Big shout but he could quite easily be our player of the season so far. He's been superb since he signed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 The signing of the season, I hope he scores the winner against Aston Villa. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 The signing of the season, I hope he scores the winner against Aston Villa. Dwight Gayle argues against this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Player of the season for us so far (along with Gayle). Shelvey coming close to it but he's had some daft moments. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ste Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Don't think he lost much at all yesterday, you hope Lascelles and him can take performances like yesterday into the top division consistently. Very good, young central defense partnership with the most part with a strong feeling that they can only improve from here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Have there been many examples of someone being a poor Premier League defender, going down, then coming back a good Premier League player? I wouldn't count Coloccini because he wasn't brought up in that league and was clearly good before he arrived. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 I'm not sure that would apply to Clark anyway, I always thought he looked quite good even for Villa. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

triggs Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Villa fans reckon James Chester is better though. Can't trust them with an opinion. Not that strange that they rate someone who is playing, I presume alright for them higher than someone who was playing shit for them. Not like they watch many of our games Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallowgate Toon Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 He's shown he's good in a well functioning side. I think he can be solid enough with the step up but only with a Rafa-calibre manager. Rafa doesn't get a lot of credit for the fact we're an incredibly well-balanced side, like.

Dave Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 He's actually really good with the ball at his feet, very secure and can even beat a man and play a good long ball when needed. Obviously that's only in the Championship but it's fair to say he's way outstripped expectations of even those (like me ) that weren't willing to write him off before he'd even kicked a ball for us. Fair play to him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
