Was chatting to someone on Saturday who doesn't rate Clifton due to his passing and inability to do anything with the ball. Personally I think he's quietly been a cornerstone piece of the squad putting in 100% every game and giving it all wherever he's put on the pitch. Also helps that he's chipped in with an assist for Bapaga on Saturday and also got a goal today. Let's not forget he's not exactly old either only 23.

Clifton has been great this season, and he was good under Hurst last season once we got going. He always runs his arse into the ground. He's had spells over the last few seasons when he looked a bit out of his depth but he's maturing really well and those spells are becoming less and less frequent. One of my favourite players in this squad and over the last five years as you can see how hungry he is and how much playing for Town means to him, so I'm delighted he's doing well now.

He's one of those players that quietly and efficiently goes about his business and doesn't catch the eye. All good teams have one and the rest of the team and management will know his worth and what he brings to the side. He'll run 'til he drops.

He is also getting better every season.

I’d go as far as saying that he’s a vital component of the team at the moment. His all round fitness, running, chasing down generally fulfilling that harrying role (pun intended) wears other teams down and opens up opportunities for others. His passing has improved a bit and he’s even chipping in with goals. There are others more technically gifted granted.  But he’s a talisman.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

He's always been a player who will keep going and can tackle/break up play. He's not going to be Mr. Flashy Pants with inch perfect passing and lots of goals but he provides an important role in how we play like Fox does.

Hard decision to make but I thought he was MOM tonight, I am not his biggest fan but tonight he gave it his all again and played a major role in us claiming 3 deserved points.

He's getting consistency into his game and hasn't had a bad match all season. Just shows that the youth development works.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

Coming into L2 he had such inconsistency with managers coping and changing all the time. Let's not forget most of us pinned the hopes on a 22 year old lads neck.

He seems to have found a rhythm to his game so far this season and looks a far lot more relaxed with the ball and uses it intelligently. Think there is a reason he pishes the pre season running tests every year.. He seems like a true professional who trains right, has the right attitude and just gives 100% every single time. a proper Paul Hurst player.
