Sexydadbod Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 Dan burn plays at left back. I wonder if there’s any chance of signing Clarke permanently because Brighton already have Dunk, Webster, Duffy and White on their books so Clarke would be a 5th choice at Brighton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramfan1958 Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 I thought he played really well last night and a permanent transfer would be great in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Hughes Hair Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 Just like Tomori last season the Championship has been a learning curve for Clarke. He's beginning to show consistently against middle to bottom of the table opposition and over the course of the rest of the season I'm sort of expecting him to show that consistency against better sides. For me the Premier League is another step up though and given that I'm not sure he replaces either of the starting Brighton CB's next season. Maybe he's happy with that but there's also an argument for him to commit here as a first choice with the hope of reaching the PL as a stalwart of the Rams defence (and yes we might not get there this season or next but equally Brighton may get relegated). From a Rams perspective the better he gets (and the higher we climb the table), the greater the cost so I'd be making enquiries now to secure him or get a permanent option in the summer. I like him.

tomsdubs Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 He's come back better and it miles ahead of Forsyth at CB, competes for everything and makes good blocks. Seems to read the game quite well anticipating forward runs. He'll go on to play regularly for Brighton after this season I imagine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbles Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 if we can't get Clarke permanently I'd possibly take a look at Jack Simpson from Bournemouth, seems like a player with the same type of qualities, relatively young and contract expires this season.

irobinson Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 He looks a lot better on the ball since returning from injury - like the guy puts his head in where it hurts also - proper CH trying to buy him a good idea - before his price massively inflates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plymouthram Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 Most centrebacks improve with age, hope we can get him in at the end of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nijul_cluff Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Really hope we can sign this lad, i wanted us to sign him from Portsmouth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jono Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 For a young centre back to be as composed as he is ..I genuinely hope we can get him. Can’t help thinking he has come on quite a bit in these challenging times. If Bogle added a million to,his price with last nights strike I can’t help feeling Matts value has been creeping up with every game played. A young one being as consistent as he has been for us is a rare thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RamNut Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Don’t think we have got the money to buy him. Anyway we’re signing a Dutch lad as long as he agrees to speak English and have the word ‘foreigner’ stamped on his forehead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie20 Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 He'd be a good permanent signing in the Summer but the little I've seen of Webster £20m!) has me wondering if they've let the wrong CB go out on loan and will want to hang on to him, barring a huge offer.

Barney1991 Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Sometimes though clarke is a weak link for me. Hes very good but still has flaws. Hes not the quickest so gets caught out a few times especially at luton for the last goal and sometimes he jogs when he need to sprint. I would be happy to sign him permanently but wouldn't be in the mood of damn if we didnt. Even if we could get him on loan next season j would rather we got someone in permanently as we are just improving a player ti go back to another club instead we can concentrate on getting players sorted for the future who are here long term Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfie Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 Blimey I've only just noticed he's only 23!. Somehow thought he was pushing 30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anag Ram Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 Would be great to have him back next season. Had a wobble but now looks the part, even if he does look like his right foot is nailed to the ground! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambitious Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 It would be good to get him back, definitely, although I highly doubt we would be in a position to sign him permanently and I don't know if Brighton would be open to another loan. He's not been as progressive or impactful as Tomori, but he's been pretty good for us on the whole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
