Millenniumram Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Decent player, but would only be joining as a backup here. We don’t need another CB, and no way do Chelsea loan a player out to us who isn’t going to play. Nothing in this now Clarke is back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcfcreece1601 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Personally I want another cb , even if te wierik and clarke play well together who would you play if one gets a red or is injured or rested? Davies at 36 years old or buchanan? Personally I'd like 1 more good cb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black ('n' White) Sheep Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Can't see there being anything in this other than Clarke-Salter possibly being a back-up if things didn't work out getting Clarke back. Defence is about sorted IMO. Time to work on bringing in some attacking threat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ram Bam Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Whilst I'm happy with our defensive options this year if we look ahead to next year we're struggling. Clarke's loan will be up, Davies will have left / retired. That only leaves Te Wierik, Wisdom who will be fighting for the same position and covering RB and Bielik who seems more at home in midfield and will likely be needed there if Rooney goes in the summer. Fozzy and Evans are cover but I don't want more than the odd game there for them. If finances allow I wouldn't mind a young CB who can come in on a permanent and play a bit part while learning and improving hopefully with a view of starting next season. Not sure if this guy is the answer for that but we need a wide player and a striker for this year first anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambitious Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 We don't need a proven player at CB anymore, but we could perhaps do with a developmental player. Clarke-Salter isn't going to come in and be the best player from day one, but he's arguably someone we could work with and improve. Birmingham fans like him. He obviously did a good job last season. It's important to remember that the coaching staff here and the entire setup in general is now focused around player development. I think Clarke Salter falls into that category.

RadioactiveWaste Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Seems an odd one as I'd have said we've got enough at CB (not writing MTW off just yet) but we really need a striker who can play target man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost of Clough Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Cocu may have decided on 3/5 at the back being our favoured formation, with Waghorn, Rooney and Marriott battling it out for the CF spot? With just Clarke, Davies, Evans, Wisdom and te Wierik (and Fozzy), maybe Cocu wants a better option there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambitious Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 If he’s seen that MTW isn’t up to it, which is worrying, it would make sense. As I said, we’ve got room for a development centre back. If it’s a loan deal then I would hope it’s a loan with a option to buy. We can’t say the CB play (aside for the Norwich game) has been good. Clarke Salter would allow us to play a higher line, reducing the need for a target man as we can naturally take a higher starting position up the pitch. A little like Tomori, when we would start Marriott in the centre forward position and actually produce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
