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.

He definitely played against us for Oxford in that 2-0 loss
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.
I didnt remember the name, but having looked at his photo I do remember him playing against us and frustrating the he'll out of me with his pace and strength. Seem to remember him going on a decent run where none of our players could challenge him. Also seem to remember him giving it a bit to one of the players after he had got challenged. Seems a decent player and I'm sure he put in some decent crosses in that game too
Clare is 6'3" so full back might be a strange place to put him.
From reading his figures on Wyscout he breaks up the play a lot - 14th highest number of "recoveries" in the division on average and 5th in the division for "counterpressing recoveries"
He keeps his passing short and frequently they are lateral as opposed to going forwards.
He had 4 assists and 24 shots but just the one goal last season and featured in 37 league games and picked up 13 bookings in that time
Looks to me like a clone of Pratley but a bit more mobile. Don't expect frills and fancy stuff but do expect a few crunching tackles...and a few late ones.
Hoping for the best........................preparing for the worst.
I have a feeling that we are going to start the season with a squad weaker than what we finished with. Also waiting for the news that "Ronnie has looked sharp and committed in training so we feel we do not need to sign another striker"
Totally agree, not even replaced Aneka let along made any actual improvements to the team. Just a couple of like for likes. As for revamping the squad with young hungry players to play a high pressing game, it's just not going to happen is it.

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

Still, two rumours to get our teeth into.
Well Karl what is it? Consistently or for two years?
