been made available for loan by Mowbray, returning from injury, would be ideal for us. get in there Mr Davey!! Duo close to West Brom exits 12:31 January, 8, 2008 Richard Chaplow and Neil Clement could be leaving the Hawthorns in January Mail The FansFC Editor Send This Article To A Friend Post Your View on The Msg Board Burnley are one of a number of clubs keen to sign midfielder Chaplow while full-back Clement is set to go out on loan after returning from injury. "If the right opportunity comes along for Neil to play somewhere on loan then we will listen to it but the phone's got to ring so we'll see," boss Tony Mowbray told the Evening Mail.
Might not be 100% fit but would be a great addition at the back, natural left footer, strong in the tackle and great free kick, ideal for what we need imho.
Not fit enough... let him go on loan somewhere else and get some games under his belt, then we'll have a think about it. Kozzy's back soon anyway.
I think we look unbalanced with a right footed player at left back, although I'd prefer Kozluk to Van Hoomet, Clement would bring experience and that bit of steeliness that I think we lack. he's got that bit of arrogance that comes from being in a promotion winning side, he might need a couple of games to get up to speed but reckon he's good for at least 70 mins straight off and certainly the kind of player we're going to need if we are to push on.
RE: I think we look unbalanced Kozzy was in a promotion winning side, l see where your coming from with wanting a left footed player at left back but Kozzy did well in his last few games. He's got a niggling injury which has baffled the physio as to why it keeps coming back. He's recently seen a specialist so hopefully it should have cleared up.
