Matt Clarke

[Block21]

I don’t mean to gloat but there was a few on here hammering me last season for saying how good he is. And how important he is. And how bald he is.

I think I got this one right lads. He gives absolutely everything and is everything I want in my centre back. Been nothing short of sensational since his return from that awful injury.

He played alongside 2 lads tonight who aren’t natural centre backs and absolutely ***ed it.

Baldini.

 

[Ebor]

Immense again

 

[Blf]

Absolutely superb. Some of his passes out of defence are awesome.

Like Morris, he's very good at his job and doesn't try to be something he's not. Except of course when he's spraying balls left and right

Always finds his man too. Beautiful footballer

 

[viv_andersons_nana]

He’s like prime Sol Campbell. You’re just not getting past the f*cker.

 

[Branca2]

One of our top 3 most important players. You can see now what happened at Birmingham. A man mountain, calm and a great pass in addition to being a complete wall!

 

[Scrug]

Sometimes he turns like the Titanic so fans got on his back, but if you focus on his strengths, he’s an incredible defender. Never loses a header, wins almost every tackle. I genuinely think he’s irreplaceable.

 

[On The Bob]

That ball through for Jonesy with the outside of his foot in the second half!

Clarke is clear, has been since his return from injury.

 

[Transitarmy]

The back heel to Howson in the first half, and one of his 360 turns

 

[Branca2]

He needs to be recognised as one of our biggest players!

If he had pace he'd be playing in the PL and worth £20m+

Has every attribute you want in a CB

But not pace then?

 

[FabioPorkpie]

He’s been a steal really, injury inside. Him and RVDB as CBs all day long for me.

 

[WillowsOrchid]

I’d be getting him in and extending his contract, fantastic defender. Can see why he’d won his previous clubs player of the season

 

[GingerTravel]

Before we signed him, he'd been fans player of the season in three of his last four..you can see why!

 

[Sheriff_John_Bunnell_ret]

But not pace then?

Pick a player alongside him with pace. 1cb attacks the ball, the other mops up.

 

[RavsFan]

Baldinho to the anointed

 

[The_Big_Woodowski]

As mentioned above he can sometimes get turned and his lack of pace are his weaknesses. But if he was more mobile and quick he wouldn’t be here.

After such a bad and career threatening injury glad he had managed just to play again, and appears to have got back to the level of his first few games he had for us where he looked awesome long May it continue for the lad
