Was telling some Leeds mates that Clarke is the best player in the league and they thought it was ridiculous. But he’s that good for me and I reckon time will prove me right.

If we don’t go up this season though we need to accept he’s gone. He’s a Premier League player

This. Could be without Clarke, Roberts and Pritchard next season. Honestly not even worried about it either. I know we'll have someone ready to slot in when they do inevitably leave - we probably already have players ready to replace Pritchard and Roberts (they arguably have already replaced them judging by the last few games).

Pritchard has proved "judging by the last few games" that he hasn't been replaced. MoTM yesterday. Top class v Saints, too.

This lad is a proper talent. It's like he just glides past players with no care in the world.

He definitely wouldn't change in the league above either.

Just asking for people's opinions. f***ing unreal this lad and think he will go to the very top

Clarke will never play for a champions league club.

Did put arguably for exactly that reason like. We're 100% trying to replace him - that's why Bellingham started ahead of him vs QPR, Southampton and Coventry (literally the last few games). Likewise with Ba starting ahead of Roberts despite being fit.

Him playing so well is exactly why I included him in a group including two of our other best players. I'm just not too worried as I think their replacements will be just as good if not better by the time the season comes to an end.

I'm not saying you're wrong necessarily but therea a big difference between the two leagues. How many players have we seen look like they are world class in the championship then go on to struggle in the Premier league. There are exceptions though and Clarke could be one

Hmmmm….

He was frustrating first half - kept giving the ball away lazily

Fantastic 2nd half though

If he can learn to swing his left foot at a ball he’ll be a quality premier league footballer

He looked like he was struggling with the heat, especially in the first half. In the second half he could slow things down more and pick his moments to run because we had them dead on their feet.

He often gets us a goal when we really need one. A pleasure to watch.
 
Clarke does good getting into forward positions but still holds on to the ball too much when other players are waiting for the pass. Would get more assists in my opinion. Team game,points needed !

Rashford believes his own hype, Clarkie apparently doesn't... I'll choose Clarkie but then I'm biased.

I think this post underlines why he isn't playing regular prem football.

In order to be a top footballer you have to be consistent.
Yes, he has the talent, he needs to joint the two together.
