CONFIRMED Harry Clarke loaned until the end of the season

[FriethBlade]

Like Curtis

Nope lower league England div one or two so we known they are up to our standard of football

 

[GymClassHero]

Is he not back now playing u-21?
Can’t really see the point of bringing back either of the two players from last season. The only reason that they might be considered is because they know the club. We need to confirm Seriki as our first choice and not disrupt his development for another clubs player

I would much rather play Seriki than bring Clarke or Gilchrist back. Neither are any upgrade so what's the point?

probably cheaper than choudray

The point is, we need cover.

Sad;t I don;t think Serikr is up to more than 20 games or so, per season. I'd love to be proved wrong on this one,

 

[Fjortoft's Aeroplane]

can't comment on the sending off, but unless they've got a quality RB ahead of him, this might say more about West Brom's manager than it does about Gilchrist. Still if they're not convinced about him I think it would be a good use of £2 million.

Ryan Mason sacked. Barely gave Gilchrist a chance. Coincidence? I think not.

Harry Clarke was useless in my view. No thanks.

Choudhury was poor yesterday

 

[John Street West Terrace]

We need cover for Seriki but Harry Clarke isn’t the answer .. Jesus that Portsmouth game at The Lsne he was as bad as Luke Thomas & that takes some doing

 

[ancientblade]

Choudhury was poor yesterday

playing out of position i believe at left back cant judge him on that i would still have him back if finances permitted

Can't tell if sarcasm... you think Gilchrist was a good enough player to singlehandedly improve WBA's fortunes?

You quoted the wrong post but its OK I know you meant to quote me. Nah not single handedly, but I think benching him (and barely giving him a chance) so he can play some no mark player instead is a sign of a manager that doesn't know a good player when he's got one. Which is not what you want from a manager.

I thought Gilchrist was quite poor in his time here. Defensively and offensively and was rightly bombed out at the nearest opportunity.

I'm not even sure he's a Championship standard right back.

I actually thought our win ratio/clean sheets/goals conceded was better in the first half of the season. (When Gilchrist started most games)

Obviously Souttar played a part but not as many games as Alfie.

Always felt more solid and confident with Gilchrist at RB out of the 100 we had.

That was down to Souttar, Arblaster and Souza starting most games.

Gilchrist was constantly being bailed out and offered nothing going forwards.

Agree. He wasnt even that bad at left back yesterday. Better than Luke Thomas and it is Thomas's natural position!

He's definitely limited going forward and I'd rather Seriki for sure. Defensively though I thought he was pretty sound and no matter how good Souttar was, to give Gilchrist no credit for one of the most impressive defensive records in the championship is a huge disservice.

Stick Choudhury / Seriki / (even) Clarke into that XI in the first half of the season and we'd have looked better than we did with Gilchrist.

He's not kicked on at WBA because he isn't very good. Wilder & Mason haven't missed something.

Clarke was pure dogshit. Choudhury and Seriki both top tier quality at this level so it's no crime to be behind them in the pecking order.

doesnt look as though choudray will be coming in with the hoever news which has just broken

 

[Eddiecolquhounsleg]

Have he been swept up?
