The consensus was that his footballing brain was too far ahead of the rest of the squad and they weren’t on his wavelength. Hence once he played a few games at Radcliffe and it was apparent that nothing was wrong with him he was snaffled up to play with better players where he’d be better suited The thing which struck me about Vaughan was just the complete lack physicality to him. I think there’s too much emphasis on the physical side personally but that’s the game we are in and he looked strikingly small next to nearly all the other players. I was at Alty when DU played him but I honestly think his fragile look put him off . He played with Fondop in one game and actually played ok but looked comical next to Mike . That said he’s clearly an excellent player with more individual skill than most and hull clearly see that in him . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a novel concept defending one's view point. Still, I am in illustrious company of men who made it in the game who chose to leave him out. As I stated, if Vaughan proves me wrong, I'll accept it. He never showed he would in a latics shirt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaining undeserved wins won’t happen forever and then what So winning ugly every week wouldn't be progression? Winning is literally all that matters It's not an undeserved win just because you win ugly... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
