Title: Toffolo
Post by: Bessie Red on October 17, 2017, 10:18:50 pm
He has taken alot of stick on here since he arrived so I think its only fair to give him some praise after tonight.
I thought he was great tonight going forward with purpose & defended superbly. Lets hope he keeps the standards up.

Did loads better being played in an more attacking role and some decent corners to challenge for as well

The fact he didn’t get thrown in when he joined us tells me he wasn’t fully fit/match sharp. Fergie has eased him in.

Looks a natural wing back as was the info I got from Scunny fans. He's starting to grow into the role now and did well tonight. Set up the second with a lovely corner and then did it again a minute later, unlucky not to lead to a third goal for us.

Seems to me he has gotten better the more game time he has got.

George Friend and James Husband got dogs abuse when playing left back for us...they were top players. ATS & Evina yup...awful.

Nobody will ever live up to Tim Ryan or Gareth Roberts.

Toffolo looked sharp tonight. Norwich fans rate him highly! Fergie did well to bring him in at short notice imo given the Danny Andrew situation!

Any player needs time to adjust to a new environment plus he isn't vastly experienced. If you start a new job in everyday life you need time to get used to how things are done us supporters can be a bit tough on them at times they are only human.

Gaz I posted similar on another thread and commented a few games ago that he seemed to struggle to run
I’ve not been a fan of his but he has vastly improved and was a contender for motm
Got to add that he is one of the most one footed players I have seen..... but if it works it works

He’s a good footballer the difference is fitness - he’s getting his whilst playing - His first game at Northampton he played wing back but he couldn’t last due to lack of game time

Not even Glynn Snodin? - albeit not looking his best these days....
