Message: [QUOTE="rnabokov, post: 3198652, member: 1847"] I agree with you. For mine, simply looking at Milford as a "match winner" - a brilliant, individual strike player, misses Kevvie's point from his perspective of building a team. That is what I see as Kevvie's focus. I hear Kevvie saying that Milford, as our most senior and most talented playmaker, is the focus, or pivot literal and metaphorical, around which he wants to construct winning combinations. Importantly, Walters said "... Anthony playing to his strengths, [B]as well as putting some structure around him." [/B]That for me was Seibold's biggest failure, a lack of structure in which, and through which, Milford can do his stuff in the way he and BHunt did in '15. They worked together, as well as doing their own thing. In fact, Walters clearly refers to those days, so he must be planning to develop combinations as well as drawing the best out of Milford as an individual strike player. A model I also think of is the way Bennett uses Reynolds and Walker, or Cleary and Luai at the Panthers, 2 halves playing together, working off each other but with structures in the middle and on the edges which are in place to capitalise on the opportunities they create. Then, there is Milford's kicking game, something on which he has worked very hard. He has shown that he can control a game with his kicking, for mine, no less effectively than Reynholds or Cleary. Our side lacks a class kicker except for Milford. Dearden for mine is barely adequate - something I am sure Walters will work on. The "new" game relies on quality kicking so much. Whether Milford answers the call to arms is the obvious issue in the posts I read on here, and there is a solid basis for doubts, but, there is for mine an equally solid basis to be positive, and that basis is Walters. Can't wait [/QUOTE]
