papaguy51 912 Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 Now, I know a LOT of people hate his guts because of what happened after PLG left, but I ask you to just look at his playing merits before answering this thread.Do we miss Clement in our midfield?Im of the opinion we do. I thought he was a class act and was showing potential to (and I home I'm not exaggerating) go on to become a £8,9,10million pound player. Thought the guy was class, he was like a fast, skillful, sharper version of Hemdani.Wish he was still here tbh. Let the Papaguy bashing begin Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boab 73 Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 My first instinct was to say no so I'll say no and maybe change my mind llater in the thread! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott-RFC 308 Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 He was goodBut not irreplaceable imo, and I dont think we miss him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muff 245 Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 Honestly think we have a better player in Thomson and in time he will prove that. Clement was good, sometimes he was nowhere to be seen and others he stood out. So in that case I say, no we dont miss him. Also seem's pretty injury prone.

Danny 9 Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Absolutely and uttely not. I still never saw what everyone else was crowing about regarding him, and was thrilled when he f*cked off.He's a memory, and not a nice one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rohan 23 Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 He didn't add anything when the team went on the attack and im in the opinion that Hemdani currently does a better job. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

evenstevens 892 Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 I was glad when he left. No real pace, despite working reasonably hard. Never once saw a penetrating pass from him, nor did I see him beat a man. He was tidy in possession but nothing more - and Hemdani always looks like he has that little bit more composure as well. I find it astounding that people were talking about him being worth £4 or £5 million - he reminded me of Bob Malcolm. I am convinced that if Clement had been Scottish he would have been hounded out of the team - that he was young, French and rated by PLG seemed to give him an air of invincibility. When we went on a bad run of results, he was injured and didnt contribute when he came back, so he was not the main man in that midfield.evens Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLUEDIGNITY 33,658 Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 What exactly is there to miss ? And where is he setting the heather on fire now ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stardog 11 Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 still think we should have held out for more money for him.Agreed. We got F all for him. He was on a 3 year contract and would could've easily kept him until the end of the season.We let go of a quality player for 700k when we could've kept him for a year at least then sold him for £2m+.Then we spent £2m on Thomson ffs.

Emerson 2 Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Miss what exactly? His solid defensive displays? His slide rule passing? Abundance of goals and shots on target?

stevenage bear 5 Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 in a word NOGood player but no better than Thompson/Adam and not as good as Hemdani/FergusonShould have got more but no he wasnt the type to grab a game and change it, he was an average player in a piss poor side Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bakbear 3,586 Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Well lets look at the evidence.... Since Clement left we have dropped how many ??? 4 points, we have yet to lose in the league, we have out performed the champions elect and the guy playing in his position has picked up the clubs POTY award..... No we don't miss him, the guy didn't want to play for the club he wanted to play for the departed manager ... glad he went so quickly Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
