Londonboy Posted October 18, 2022 Author Share Posted October 18, 2022 I've got a feeing he might be involved in some way tonight. Coming on from the bench with 20 to go perhaps.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longtimeblue Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Not seen as much of him as others but, even from his cameo against Eastleigh alone, you can see he's the best technical footballer at the club. He does look lightweight but he looks astute enough to avoid contact by making space. As others have said, he might not be the answer but I'm not sure what's been seen in training that hasn't given him the chance to prove it either way.

I watched training last week and he was hardly involved. I think he needs to demand and look for the ball more like the similar built Scunthorpe number 25 recently. Until he does that I fear he won't progress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs to have the play going through him like Palmer at County and Apter at Scunthorpe, there seems a reluctance to play it through him even when he is involved. He will be another who will go on and do just fine in a league or two above without really being given an opportunity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yarddog73 Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 One thing that probably has been forgotten in the Harry Vaughan debate and is probably worth a mention is that when he does come on we have been able to go on and win games, against both Eastleigh and Aldershot he came on and made a fair/decent contribution but more importantly it was a positive substitution by the manager, we didn't look tired and unfit as is claimed and actually went on and won the matches in the dying minutes of the game, both in injury time I think. Cooper for Rooney on Saturday was about as stupid a substitution I've seen for some time it handed all the initiative over to Chester who from that point basically played attack against defence and it resembled training ground drills. Chester were shite and couldn't defend for toffee yet we allowed them half hour of almost uninterrupted play and they should of gone on and won, we played seven or eight at the back and not because of fitness it's how we set up to play, it's the managers job to make the adjustment not just throw more defenders on to hide behind the ones who aren't doing there job to start with. I'm not having it that we can use this unfit myth week in week out, that Chester game was played at a snails pace it was fucking dreadful at times, no urgency, no desire and that was a world away from how the same group applied themselves against Wrexham and that's a big worry for me, we should of won by 4 or 5 Saturday they had nothing upfront a dodgy defence and as bad a keeper I've seen in a long time, that was the game for Vaughan with half hour to go and if he didn't bring him on then he is never going to use him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm very much in the patience gang, but this substitution baffled me a bit and I wasn't even watching. Seemed set up for Vaughan to come on at this point. If Vaughan isn't quite what Unsworth wants week by week then that's his call but he offers something positive and a bit different and against a team from the league below in a game that's a little bit of a free hit, I'm surprised he didn't give him a run.

b0ndl1ne Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 I’m going tonight with a mate who’s a Chester fan. If he doesn’t play Vaughan I’ll be giving him what for, I promise you that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Londonboy Posted October 18, 2022 Author Share Posted October 18, 2022 For those that went Harry played 22 mins plus extra time. How did he do? Did he change the game for us? Did he do enough to earn a start Saturday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilChester Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 As an oppo fan I can safely say he did nothing, don't pin your hopes on that lad to build your team around just yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBigDog Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 It will take time but, if given more game time, he will continue to develop. Let’s get some ‘B’ team games in the diary… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
League one forever Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 His first 22 minutes of the season I believe? And he didn’t dominate and score two? Yeah, stick him in the shit pile. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andyt84 Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 (edited) Are we forgetting when he came on against Eastleigh and helped to change the game. Edited October 19, 2022 by Andyt84 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Londonboy Posted October 20, 2022 Author Share Posted October 20, 2022 Be interesting to see Unsworths view on whether he contributed enough to get a start against a pretty average Yoevill side on Saturday. My guess from the views on here is he will be on the bench at best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Burns Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 be on the bench if he is basing it solely on tues. Rooney needs to do something this weekend, probs a screamer 4-0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
