Has been playing really well of late.
Clay, Cisse and two other central midfielders for next season would be decent.
However it's taken us 2 years to sign Cisse.

Clays miraculous improvement to reaching the level of being OK is down to the introduction of Cissé. But he generally looks good compared to people like Wright so it’s not hard and his previous shocking form
But the long awaited improvement is very welcome

I thought Clay was the right choice but I don't blame him too much for not looking like Iniesta, the positioning, availability and runs into space (not) made by those around him dictate what he can achieve. He can't make a telling pass if nobody is 'on' but he does have that vision - look at how he set up Brophy's goal last week. Sure enough, he's as slow as a Land Rover and his feet are too big to hit the ball cleanly but he's in league two where everyone has their glaring shortcomings.

I thought Clay was everywhere yesterday. Linking things up, tackling, blocking, moving, passing forward.
We play so narrow it makes everything congested.
Ross made a good point in his post match interview that Brophy, Clay and JMD are linking up well down the left. I noticed that yesterday so if it's something they've been working on then fair play.

I think the signing of Cisse has taken the workload off him. Before that he was doing his work & also Wright's. No wonder he was $h@gged out. |

I wasn’t at yesterday’s game so can’t comment on Clay’s performance against Oldham. I will say however that he is a player who, imho, seems to attract a lot of unwarranted criticism and has been made a scapegoat to some degree for the general underperformance of the midfield. As ralphquotes said above the signing of Cisse has taken some of the burden off of him and will be beneficial.

Cisse has improved the style of the team.Clay is repeating that reward,he is however a good team player in his own right.
The left side is our powerforce,imagine a good right.A team and style is developing bit by bit.

Most players performances are best viewed from at least 10 miles away. Maybe I’ll give it a try. Seems like a great idea.

Would Clay’s improvement have anything to do with contract renewal time I wonder.

It’s good to see his game improve since Cisse arrived. The improvement is clear and long may it continue. |

Clay has been superb recently and tbh I don’t think he has been as bad as some think.
