What He Gives Orient

RoleRole reference point

S. Clare is a usage read more than a hard verdict.

His value depends on whether the team structure gets him involved in the phase he is meant to influence.
System DependencyNeeds the inside bounce

The sample is only 54 minutes, so this page should be read as role evidence rather than a selection verdict. The useful question is where the staff are trying to use him and whether that involvement scales with more minutes.

Deep passes that found an inside connection: 38%; deep passes dying before pressure: 92%.
RiskNot a free pass defensively

Because so much build-up is routed through his zone, poor spacing around him can make his turnovers look worse than they are.

12 losses in the sample, with 0 becoming dangerous transition leaks.
