    According to Wiki Clare was with us as a youngster.

    Clare played with Conor Washington at Hearts.

    Is he a holding midfielder or more of a box to box midfielder? I have no recollection of him from when we played Burton

    I'm not aware of this player, but interesting that Robinson tried to convert him to a right-back. Doesn't sound too happy in the quotes!

    ed - Oh I've got that wrong, he joined Oxford as a right-back, and Robinson played him as an 8? I wonder where we're looking to play him then.

    Also reading that he's a penalty taker, which we need.

    I think you were right first time round! He's a midfielder first

    However, Karl Robinson tried to switch him to right-back away from his natural midfield berth.

    Oh right... On the Oxford website it says he joined them as an attacking right-back, which is confusing.

    Robinson played him out of position, he should be a number 8 CM.

    If Robinson is calling him an 8 he is box to boxish.  Or what we would call 20 years ago a "midfielder".

    Shame we don't still have Bowyer here, he could have moved him around a bit.

    And in 20 years we’ll call him an attacking box to box inverted false 8.

    Sorry, just feeling delirious after coming on here to find a couple of actual rumours. And they’ve not been linked with us before.

    Was Clare playing at RB for Oxford against us at the Valley? If so, I remember being very impressed with his ability to get up and down the flank, caused problems. Obviously that's not particularly relevant if he's a midfielder and will only be used as RB cover. 
  • mendoncamendonca
    Some neat footwork that by Stockley! Don't try it Ryan, stay safe "Bruv".

    He definitely played against us for Oxford in that 2-0 loss

    Post from the guy that has mentioned Edwards. Apaz Reading weren’t interested.

    Might have been the transfer embargo that stopped them from signing him

    Kyle Hakeem Edwards (born 17 February 1998) is a professional footballer and musician who most recently played for Premier League club West Bromwich Albion as a forward.

    Think we can all guess why Sandgaard wants him...
    He needs a drummer?

    Sean Clare anyone?
    Came through our academy I think. Attacking player I think. Was impressed when I saw him play against us last season. 
    Hackney boy caused us all sorts of problems playing for Burton …

    I know nothing about Edwards but I'd be happy with Sean Clare, looked a good player in the second half of the season for Burton.
