Message: [QUOTE="lynx000, post: 2527935, member: 2065"] Okay, get ready for a shock, I am going to use the `P' word. I am somewhat disappointed for, and sad about Maranta, because I actually think he has the potential to be a talented and useful footballer. He has done some good things in the games he has had and he seems to have some skill that is largely being unexploited. He has good size and if he lost some weight and did some dedicated speed training over the summer, I think he would actually have some pace as well. The more significant issues seem to be with his confidence and his thinking. Some disconnect seems to have occurred in his head when an opportunity opens up and invariably he freezes or takes the wrong option. It is a a song I have sung before, but there seems to be a continuing problem with this club with working on player weaknesses and developing them into good footballers. It was happening with Henjak and has continued with Griffin. For some reason either the coaches do not try and fix individual problems that players have, they do so ineffectually, or the players are too dense to actually take on board and put into operation what they are taught. Without being inside and observing, I cannot tell you which one it is. But there are a number of players who have (had) fundamental flaws that should have been capable of being fixed with some effort and time. Why is this not happening? [/QUOTE]
