Like others on here I have an opinion, most times mines proven right, in contrast other such as yourself are either wrong or just a vain attempt to provoke a reaction.
My advice to you would be to get out more, see a few live games, drink Beer and meet Women.
It's called getting a life!

The reality I imagine with Clarke is somewhat inbetween. He is a very promising young player who has alot of potential, but has been badly found out in recent weeks in a very poor and inexperienced defence. He would not have played so poorly with better defenders around him.
I wouldn't pay too much attention to those forums. My sons all support Liverpool and Everton and I've nearly ****ed myself with some of the nonsense that some of those lads on them write (some excellent posters also). One guy said that JJ Shelvey had it in his locker to be the next Zidane..come to think of it, it's a bit like saying that Ciaran could be the next Paul McGrath :)

"Ciaran Clark has been a little bit loose all game, some of his control has been shocking."
Doesnt sound like Clark has been having a great game tonight against Millwall. I think the lad certainly has potential but is in bad need of an more experienced partner at CB to help him out - Richie D would be perfect.
Listened to the match commentary and it sounded like he was having another stinker.
I doubt the international break can come quickly enough for our Ciaran. Maybe working with a couple of experienced defenders will give him a bit of confidence back.
Doubt it will make much difference if you haven't got the ability which clearly Clark lacks.Quote:

Name the ex-players and managers who are saying it, and what they said.
Well, if we're writing off Clark now, I just hope Alex Pearce is the real deal - because I don't want a player who has never played any higher than second-tier English football leading our defence for the next four campaigns. :mad:Quote:

Could it be one of Ron Atkinson, Barry Fry, Alan Irvine, Sven Goran Eriksson or Nigel Pearson? In which case, these comments wouldn't be in the public domain and the Doc wouldn't be at liberty to tell you!Quote:
