Most worryingly nightlights the fact that MON clearly doesn’t know what he’s doing when it comes to signings

No wonder Brown gets games

He was the same as everyone else that played out wide today wasn’t he? 😂😂
No real reason to go ott. No winger that played for Stoke today looked like a competent winger.
More irrational shite.

Another case of who the fuck scouted him! Got to assume in this case it was Andy Cousins?

So did O Neill want him or was it a case of "Here you go Michael...." It’s almost never a case of that.

He’s better than Brown.

We need a longer look at him in an extended run of games before we fully judge, but based on the odd minutes here and there he looks miles off the standard.
The worrying part of this is the majority of the manager's signings look very similar.
None of them look like affecting a game of football for an extended period of a game and most don't look like affecting a game at all!

Most worryingly nightlights the fact that MON clearly doesn’t know what he’s doing when it comes to signings I am seriously hoping now that the players bought in since he became manager were recruited by someone else they are that bad, if he has brought them here he needs sacking now Jacob Brown £2m , you just know we are going to be stuck with old man Mikel and Chester the jester next season.

That's not much of a recommendation. I'm still better than Brown and I'm an OAP.

Garbage so far. Whoever let him take that free kick and shoot needs a kicking.

How have you come to this conclusion? I didn't notice him do anything today, not even worry defenders by his pace which at least Brown does until they realise that athletic is all he is.

Total waste of a loan. We’d have been better off keeping Ince. I genuinly don’t think he was scouted. I think they looked at his CV and thought yep we’ll take him.

Maybe we’ve told him to be a bit crap, bring his price down and then sign him in the summer at a knockdown fee and away we go.

I agree, Clarke was awful. Half hearted and has no conviction in his play. He has 100 times more talented than Brown but he hasn't a clue how to use it.

He's cost us next to nothing.
There were only 2-3 wingers of any standard available to loan in January - and we gambled on two of them
Nobody was letting anybody out. Nobody in our league loaned anyone better in
We couldn't afford a purchase after buying Doughty, which we had to do then or others would have done so It was just a punt that hasn't worked.

Hasn't seen enough of him? Did he look at him before signing? Doesn't he watch him in training? Has he played him in the under 23's? Sorry MON, I don't get it? Does anyone on here know what MON meant by that statement?

Does anyone on here know what MON meant by that statement? It means he hasn't done anything in those games or in training to warrant a start. As Grapey says, we took a punt on potential, presumably informed by what Andy Cousins had seen at Man City. It hasn't worked out so far.

Does anyone on here know what MON meant by that statement? I think he means he's not seen enough of him in games, or he's not shown enough in the brief appearances he's had to justify at start at the moment. He looks to me like a player who needs an arm round his shoulder, and a good run of 5 or 6 games to bring that sharpness and confidence. Sadly, I don't think he'll get that here, but time will tell.

Shame for the young lad, must be worried where his career is heading. He needs to drop right down the leagues for regular football
