He did well, but he really needs to work on his distribution. A lot of our struggles last night were due to poor distribution from the back.
The counter argument is that a hard working but limited player like Jason Roberts caused us all sorts of problems last night. He's still got a lot to learn.That said, he's strong and quick and seems confident so he's got a chance but I think it will be a year or so before we know if he's going to be up to it.
Jason Roberts might be a bit part average premiership player but he is a fecking string bugger who knows all the tricks in the book and uses them to his advantage. He really was starting to throw his weight around in the 2nd half and just as he was up steps Clark to take him out (he got a yellow BTW) Roberts stared at him and Clark just stared right back at him - 10 mins later the effect was worth it as Roberts limped off
Reminds me of early Ugo a bit. He's gangly and looks a bit awkward, but he does have the attributes to be a decent no nonsense centre half and he's not afraid to throw himself in where it hurts. Think he would benefit form playing alongside Vlaar rather than Clarke.Looked uncomfortable at times last night but we need to bear in mind he hadn't played for several weeks.
