I guarantee you if we sign this Ogunleye he won’t score more than 10 goals this season. Without sounding brutal I don’t think he is currently or ever will be National League quality.

10 goals in 20 games? Yes please!

Thought he stood out against us in the cup. Looked direct and tricky

he scores goals which dosent suit our formations or the way we play .

You what mate?

Doesn’t matter what formation or tactics you play. The aim is always to score goals.

Moncur's whole issue was that he wouldn't be allowed to play in the true 10 role, our system simply doesn't allow for that. Adapting to a new role never seemed an option for him.

He's never played in LCM or RCM in his entire career and obviously struggled with it, as we saw.

This is spot on. Someone challenged me when I said he wasn't played in the right position. Number 10 is the right position not a central mid and especially not in a 532

Which begs the question, why sign him if we weren't going to give him freedom in a 10?

Hardly going to learn new tricks entering the latter years of his career. Reckon he'll hang up the boots in 2-3 seasons max.

We can't play him as a 10 and Coker in the same team without having the other midfielder needing to handle two runners all the time and I would rather continue to try and develop Coker.

If we're to stick to our current system/philosophy, I agree
