PieFacE Posted June 9, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted June 9, 2015 Best centre back at the club by a zillion miles and everybody seems happy that he could be going If he goes and we replace him with better then great but if he leaves and we are facing Okore as his full time replacement then we may as well start planning for championship football now Have to disagree. Clark has looked much more assured all season. Vlaar is too injury prone to depend on. Needs to be replaced but that shouldnt be difficult.

DCJonah Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Yeah and Sanchez is going to come good and so is Gardner Maybe I should get money on us winning the title with all these world beaters fulfilling their potential next season Clark has been better than him most of the season and baker at times has been better than him. This isn't like losing a delph or benteke. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has much more potential than Sanchez or Gardner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably you forgot the arsenal (home)game where the fans turned on him and the various match reports in the following weeks where people said they didn't want Clark to ever play for the club again To be fair to Ckark he did turn it around but it remains to be seen if he can keep the consistency Edited June 9, 2015 by tonyh29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobzy Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 He's not unloyal, no one can expect loyalty in football. He's just an overrated average footballer. Who thinks his bigger than Villa. Baffling. He will go to a "better" team than Villa. It's really not that baffling at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newry_Villan Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Makes us apologise before he signs for us. He never had my respect because of this and now says he needs to step up another level....Turkey??? Haha. Bye Ron. You won't be missed and I'll be glad to see the back of you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well based on this seasons general performances, I would say it's baffling that he thinks he could take a "step up" from Villa. He can leave, but there is no need to make out his bigger and better than us. Wouldn't you agree?

Vlaar did not have a great year this season. On his day he is an above average top flight defender but is injury prone. I agree that Clark was our best defender, however I think on his day Vlaar is a solid top flight defender. Problem is, his day hasn't been coming often enough as of late. I have no problem with him leaving now, but don't belittle the club. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P3te Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 like literally every player in the villa squad*, i'm not pushed if ron goes. very good defender on his day, but injured too often. his regular absences meant we couldn't build a sustained alternative back line that didn't include him, because when he was back he was in the team, shaking everything up again. on paper, it's weakening us, absolutely, but i'm not sure if it will do all that much harm in the long run (i include everyone, including benteke and delph in that - there's just nobody in the squad at the moment that i'd be genuinely gutted to see go) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Steve Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Disgusting comments. Sorry Ron, we supported you through your consistent injury problems and you've thrown it back in our faces. I appreciate the good performances and the odd goal. But you are not nearly half as good as you think you are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P3te Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 we supported you through your consistent injury problems Not really. He was an employee of the club, what exactly did you expect them to do? Release him from his contract without paying? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, looking in a thread after a good game or bad game isn't going to reflect how his general performances have been for us. After a dreadful game he probably did have a lot of people wanting rid, but after this full season (not just one game), there are also a lot of people who had him as our Player of the Season until he got injured. In my opinion, our best centreback partnership this season was Clark and Okore, followed by Vlaar and Senderos. The latter two either won't be with us or won't be fit for more than 3 weeks in a row, so on that basis alone, I'm not that fussed that Vlaar is going.
