Jack Clarke


We’ve got Talbi, Adingra and Mundle so a left winger isn’t priority whereas we’ve only got Traore on the right and he’s away at the moment.

If we got a good deal out of it I’d consider moving Mundle on and bringing Clarke in to be progress

I think him and Roberts would both be useful at the minute. I know Roberts doesn’t have that yard of pace unfortunately to be a premier league regular, but he holds the ball higher up better than Rigg does(not going in on him as he’s not a winger) and that would stop us getting turned over so quickly.
Clarke in a similar ilk to Roberts again would hold the ball higher up the pitch longer but I do think he has the pace and the ability to step up, Ipswich was a terrible move for him in hindsight by the way they played him last season. Over the season I think he’d contribute more than mundle at this level if both were fit

He's better than Adingra but there's not much in it..to progress in this league we need to be setting our sights higher than Jack Clarke.

This is also true, I’m using Rigg for Roberts and mundle for Clarke. We need to be improving our second string, but in an ideal world we make traore and talbi our second string by signing better than them. Clarke would’ve been interesting this season though

I don’t disagree but you’ve said it yourself…he’s better than what we’ve go so we would be improved. We should always be looking to improve on what we have and that includes improving on whoever we bring in next

Ipswich don’t even play him on the wing regularly

Well that’s just really f***ing silly isn’t it? You need to present workings out n stuff. Like who would he get 30 minutes of instead etc!

That’s what I’m saying, he’s been written off but needs that proper chance out wide for me.

No he wouldn’t. Brilliant for us but not good enough for the next stage.
Doesn’t always start in his team now. Not sure why people want to go backwards.

I reckon Talbi will be a great player in time

He doesn’t start in his team because they don’t play him the same way we did/would do. At Ipswich he’s a square peg in a round hole. When RLB took over I thought Clarke was very impressive here, he adapted to the new tactical setup very very quickly whilst still maintaining his attacking threat.
I personally think he’s much better suited to us than Adingra, as I don’t see the game iq from Adingra to be able to play RLB’s tactics.
That being said, I’m not convinced that we have seen all that Mundle has to give yet, I think he’s much better than we have seen so far this season, and he may not be fully rehabbed from what was a big injury. I also think Talbi is out first choice LW, and so we could be saying Clarke is better than our 3rd choice left winger

I think he has got something about him, grafts hard,is pretty quick and 2 footed. Sometimes I think he over thinks it and stops in his movement. V Chelsea when he scores he’s got no time to think, v Liverpool it was last resort to shoot, I want shooting there to be his first thought. Young and in a new country so he’s already doing well.
