Smiler13 Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Great News this. Lets hope he can push on now from last year. The defense is looking good just need 2 goalkeepers and one left fullback and we will be sorted defensively. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GlossopLatic Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 I can't see both Gerrard and Clarke going through the whole of next season without an injury. He will get game time next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simplythemostimportantkick Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Happy with this. Obviously Shez sees the potential in him. Hope he pushes on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're right. if we play 2 Goalkeepers they should be able to match Ripleys' clean sheet record Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genuinely wouldn't mind three centre halves next season of Edmundson, Clarke and Stott with Clarke marshalling them in the centre - but doubt that will happen.

oafc1955 Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 With the money Gerrard is likely to be on there's no way he'll be sat on the bench! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nor should he be on the bench. Proper quality centre back ! I have a feeling he will come back a lot leaner too. To use one of HarryBosch's lines if you don't rate Gerrard , do you even like football ? ( Leeslover I'm looking at you ?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshgaz Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 If Gerrard turns up in the same shape he did last season he shouldn't be anywhere near the team. The lads on a 2 year deal too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisA Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Needs to be ready. A chance will present itself through injury or suspension and he needs to claim a spot as his own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I spoke to Andy Barlow a few weeks ago, he was scathing in his assessment of Gerrard and his lack of fitness. But maybe he doesn't like football.

owdumer Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 True. But he is a lot closer to his playing weight now after well more than a decade after retiring than Gerrard was at the end of April. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
