Yeah me too, we missed him tonight, he did some of Harkins running for him on Saturday, Dayton wasn't able to do the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OAFC33 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Big miss tonight - Dayton had another poor game. He looks feeble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snookmeister Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Big miss tonight - Dayton had another poor game. He looks feeble. His corners were woeful. Two in succession failed to beat the first man - then from the second one, they raced up the other end and scored... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross2509 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Even with Worrall back, i would still play Dayton on that wing. For me our best team is: Oxley Brown Kusunga Tarkowski Grounds Worrall Smith Wesolowski Dayton Harkins Charlie MacDonald It seems obvious to me that we need at least one, ideally two strikers, to challenge Charlie up top and also another as a replacement for Rooney leaving the squad. Then with Tarkowski leaving it looks like we may need another to slot in there or at least a full - back to slot in at LB and Grounds go back to centre - half, either way, we need at least three players in my eyes or it may be a struggle to stay up come the end of the season. That's not off the back of tonights result, which was obviously against a much better time, but to withstand the amount of games from now until the end, we need a larger squad.

BP1960 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I'm concerned about the Worrall groin injury, it's seems he' s going to really struggle to find full fitness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafc1955 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 After the first game at Stevenage I thought Dayton was going to be a terrific signing. He was so direct that day they took off their full back so as to avoid a sending off such was his dominance. Where did that player go .. a goal against Vale is all I remember since , for me he appears to be going through the motions and is totally ineffective. We need a big lad up front who Philli or MacDonald can play off, for me, playing Harkins behind a lone striker is not the answer. Harkins has shown more guile playing wide in two games than Dayton has all season... Time to give him a rest when Worrall gets back to full fitness methinks.

rudemedic Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I'm concerned about the Worrall groin injury, it's seems he' s going to really struggle to find full fitness. I'm not he has been out injured for a decent amount of time, (his last game before coming here was 17th August). You aren't going to be able to come straight back in to playing 2 games in 4 days after that injury having only played 20 minutes beforehand. I fully expect him to start on Saturday.

Not sure about that rudemedic, has he come back from injury too early in the rush to get him into the team, that's my worry.

BP1960 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I can see why you might be concerned about that, but not for me. Hope so, with Dayton so weak and out of form we need him fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OAFC33 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 A player of Daytons slight physical build needs a few tricks and a lot of pace - he seems to have neither. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slystallone Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Tried to give him the benifit of the doubt since the start of the season; but overall, he does flatter to deceive. I hoped the Stevenage away performance was a marker. He was my MoTM that game and was almost unplaybale. I fear it was a rare one-off rather than a marker though. Too weak in the challenge. Doesnt beat a man for either pace or skill nearly enough; if at all. Rarely puts any sort of decent crosses in on a consistent basis; and his set pieces - corners especially - have been woefull really. I said on another thread that Worrall performance in Saturday had shown him the way; but also taken his spot in the side. Worrall, fitness wise is a risk playing games so close together, so there is still a need for Dayton. He needs to buck up though; as when Worrall isnt playing, I'm not sure on current form, i'd have him in the side as the replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ak's11 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Bumped into Worrall on the way out last night. Said he was stiff from the Peterborough game having just come back from injury but told Johnson he could play 20-30 mins if need be. Johnson said no. He said he was gutted not to be playing. Surely having him on the bench and bringing him on 20-30 minutes is better than Winchester coming on for the same period of time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yarddog73 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 one of the most worrying aspects for me is the lack of depth in our squad on the back of home/away programmes is the largest in the league the reality is that after the 1st 11 there is nobody pushing for a start, the reserves last week were dire, if we lost 2 or 3 on the run in we could be in trouble.
