Default hard time shifting gears

I just changed the clutch and i think the metal folk that is attached to the slave cylinder has to much play in it. I think the fork somehow came lose. or maybe i have to bleed the line???

where does it have play?does the clutch actually disengage?can you shift gears with the car running?does the car try to still move while in gear with the clutch pushed in?did you bleed the line at all?

I'd say bleed the line anyways, the brake fluid used tends to absorb moisture and turns dark. Its easy to do, pump slowly a few times, hold down pedal, open the fitting, close it, then slowly release pedal. Repeat as needed.

the clutch release fork feels like it has play once it is started i can shift no problem just sometime it is hord to shift in gear. i will bleed the line first.
the car does not try to still move while in gear with the clutch pushed in
