Clark will definitely be (and is) a good defender. He still has some learning to do but he should play more. Collins being sucked to the ball is winding me up to be honest. It's happening several times a game now and leads to trouble invariably.However, he is a trier and has some sort of understanding with Dunne so I can understand why McLeish is loathe to change it at the moment.But I want to see Clark play more soon because I think he could be outstanding.

Correct.The thing I noticed at Bolton on Saturday was the way that both Collins and Mutton (who both played okay-ish) have positional frailties. Mutton ball-watches too much and loses sight of the man he's supposed to be marking; Collins gets drawn upfield.
Overall I'm happy with Richard, I finally think he cares about us and it shows in his performances.
Dunne has been superb this season. It is a good job too because Collins has been woeful at times.

Carlos and Dunne would be some pairing. mon, kevin macdonald, gerard houllier, mcallister and now mcleish. All these managers seem to think there is something wrong with playing cuellar at centre half.Can you remember from the 77th minute at home to stoke when he was playing with davies till the end of the season. he was so ropey, undecisive and panicked every time the ball came into the box it was one of the main reasons we didnt finish 4th. everyone seems to like him as he doesnt say anything bad about the club but is really just seeing out his contract for a bumper pay off at the end of the season with a new contract atwith another club!
