Turns out it was a slightly faster than normal jog rather than a sprint.
Having watched the game back, Lescott didn't cover himself in glory tonight...far too many mistakes, giving away possession cheaply, passing back to Guzan far too much, rushing forward and getting caught out of position, and failing to make a decent challenge. TS said that he intended to bring Lescott off at half time, and Clark was a rock in comparison in the second half.
Clark deserves his starting place against Liverpool and I'd have Lescott as back up...he may be half way to the knackers yard but we're going to need him with the way Clark is clocking up all these yellow cards (4 already this season).
Worryingly TS did mention that he thinks Clark can play in midfield based on the fact that he used to play there, but he showed tonight that he's not good enough on the ball and his best position is CB. I'd like to think that TS only really played him in midfield in the first half just to give him some game time as we have much better options available.
