Evatt signed him as a striker but then instead of playing him in a similar role has attempted to get him to fit his system not his previous one. It’s the same as Dapo who IE tried in several positions to fit him in rather than leave him to do what he’s best at and trying to turn Sadlier into a wing back and Toal into a LCB where he struggles. Just sign round pegs for round holes it’s surely not difficult? I agree with that point 100% re round pegs, round holes and Toal is the latest example. But Vic is a different issue all for me (nobody has to agree) - but even if we build the formations/tactics around his playing style, the bottom line is he's not a very good footballer IMO. I wouldn't be changing anything to suit him, I'd be playing somebody different there in an ideal world (Collins and one other, preferably with some strength and decent in possession). Toal and Dapo are class players that its worth getting the best out of, Vic isn't at that level so I don't have a big opinion on playing to his strengths, we still wouldn't get a lot of out of him, from what I've seen. BTW I didn't realise he was ever a winger, I honestly can't imagine him in that role but fair enough if that explains partly the relative lack of goals in his career. Quote

Actually JR I do agree with you on Victor and like you I’d prefer a replacement but unless someone comes in for him I’d rather try to play to his strengths whilst he is here. I’m not sure if it’s still IE he’ll change but if not at least try and get the wingbacks to get the ball across quicker to him. 🙂 Quote

It's the injuries that prevented auto promotion, and the constant bottling it which is down to poor leadership. On thar team above possibly dempsey as captain. Quote

W.cramp Posted May 25, 2024 Posted May 25, 2024 Am hoping Johnston comes in to replace toal, the lad is OK but not good enough yet, gets caught out of position and loses his man way to many times. Quote
