JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Can't wait to have him and Okore fully fit as our Centre Back pairing. (Although to be fair Clarke has been doing alright) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicon Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Immense last night - he's a great CB. Like JV above, it'd be good see him play with Okore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villarocker Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Concrete Ron is vastly improved on what he showed at the beginning of last season. Like many have stated, we're so much better with him in the team. Deserving of the Captaincy too because he leads by example. I also think that he and Clark are a good partnership. Their problems lie at the sides of them as our full backs are so poor defensively. If we had solid full backs we would be back to having an awesome defence. Throw in a decent attacker, playmaker in midfield and a brick shithouse midfielder and we would have a very good side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone keeps saying about Okore but I didn't think he looked as amazing as some are making him out to be in the few games he's played for us. Clarke is much improved this season and I think he deserves his first team spot along with Vlaar. Clowns to the left of them, Jokers to the right n all that haha. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought Vlaar and Clark did really well. I'm not a Baker fan though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okore looks promising, but Clark IS stellar now. Our CB trio looks great going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post LockStockVilla Posted January 18, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted January 18, 2014 (edited) He was excellent again today, made quite a few vital tackles on Suarez. Having him in the side is all so vital to playing decent football because it all starts from the back and Vlaar's first instinct is to play the ball on the floor if at all possible. It's also noticeable that Bacuna plays a lot better at RB with Vlaar next to him. Definite calming influence on the whole back line and Bertrand's addition helps as weal to give much needed balance back there.
