heid3ster Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 What did he do to get the yellow card? I wasn't watching but Woodward said he lashed out for no real reason or something like that I missed a little of the lead-up, but he was way forward and lost the ball, was caught out of position so he lunged in recklessly on a Crewe defender - late, high and studs-up. Definite red if this were a PL match. A ridiculous challenge to make at any time, but particularly in a friendly. I've lost patience with Clark. He should be 4th choice CB, maybe even 5th choice behind Donacien at this rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TezzRexx Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 After he failed to score a sitter, he got frustrated, ball fell to the defender, Clark chased it and completely took the player out from the side... very lucky to stay on I thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimcohen Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Agreed, terrible tackle and the worrying thing is its the worst thing about his game so he must have been told many times to calm down and think and if he cant control it in a friendly against Crewe when we are dominating...! Good defender, but rash tackles and silly mistakes will blight him. I still think he would be a better DCM, but we just dont need one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ciggiesnbeer Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Very poor today. Oh dear. In any other game he should have been sent off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunnski Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 He looks scared everytime I see him, looks like he has lost it mentally. Am guessing Lambert knows their is a good player in their somewhere and will continue to throw him in at the deep end in the hope he can overcome his demons.

smetrov Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Just forget the tackle, and calamities tonight - but just think those aside, can you recall him doing anything good tonight ? For me, even when not making mistakes - he is very ineffective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PompeyVillan Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Never rated him as a defender. I hope he barely kicks a ball for us this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samjp26 Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 To be honest he isn't doing himself any favours. Lambert will give him two ears full I'm sure. Probably cost himself big time tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bunnski Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Sci5BeQ38M He did this less than 3 weeks after the Man City game. Kinda says it all about where he is at the moment. Needs to get his head out of his arse and sort himself out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRO Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 .....bit of a worry this boy He needs to step up to the plate, not good enough right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PompeyVillan Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 He's no scapegoat for me, I simply do not rate him at all. I think he is defensively naive, physically incapable against strikers with power or pace and he makes too many mistakes and rash challenges. Okore only needs to be average to be a huge improvement on Clark. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KjParton Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 I had a perfect view of his yellow card. He'd lost the ball after failing to score an easy goal (all he had to do was poke it in), the ball was passed all the way out towards the left back position almost by the byline. Clark ran flat out at least 20 yards flew in with his studs up into the player. You could see the anger on his face as he was running towards the Crewe player, He wasn't going in to win the ball, he was going in to crunch the player. It was a disgusting challenge especially in a friendly game. He was never ever going to win that ball. Hope he doesn't have a place in our first 11 this season.
