Exiled in Toronto Mk2 Posted March 30, 2024 Posted March 30, 2024 I thought he was much better playing JDT ball, 1-2 touches, buzzing around. Now he’s gone back to stepovers, going round in circles and falling over. His interplay with Sammy that led to Sammy’s shot was JDT stuff. 1 Quote

His decision making is absymal and he blows hot once every dozen games. Smells of journeyman if he leaves us. 1 Quote

His strengths are when others are around him thinking forward. Under this regime he runs in circle's because no one is coming near him to receive the ball. Big difference in jdt style and this set up is highlighted by Dolan. He's got potential to be a good player but the system doesn't suit him. He'll be sold for pittance in the summer 2 Quote

Much better team performance Quote

aletheia Posted April 2, 2024 Posted April 2, 2024 (edited) Increased maturity and great coaching by JDT 😃 edit and perhaps playing in the shop window to get away from the present nightmare? Edited April 2, 2024 by aletheia Quote
Torgeir Posted April 2, 2024 Posted April 2, 2024 One in ten. Needs to become more consistent but a very good match by Dolan. Looked for the pass as well, plus we had bodies forward. Quote
47er Posted April 2, 2024 Posted April 2, 2024 Yep, we can add him to the list of players we brought on and another club got the benefit for bugger all. Quote
norwichblue Posted April 13, 2024 Posted April 13, 2024 Szmodics makes the headlines today for his 30 goals this season (and rightly so), but can we just take a moment to commend Tyrhys Dolan today (again). He’s finding some great form of late. Love the work rate and love the player. What a fucking ball to find Sammy there. Really hope he stays in Summer. 4 Quote

Yeah, very aware of what was going on around him. Plus just the right placement and pace on the ball for Sammi to smack it into the back of the net. Quote
roversfan99 Posted April 13, 2024 Posted April 13, 2024 It was a difficult game for him but I dont think he did much at all today, his lack of pace really holds him back. But his assist was exceptional, perfectly done. Quote
Mattyblue Posted April 14, 2024 Posted April 14, 2024 He’s a handy player at this level… and now the next one to leave for a pittance. 2 Quote
cesus Posted April 14, 2024 Posted April 14, 2024 I've just read an article from mid July 2023 saying we are well into negotiations with Dolan. These are some long old negotiations! Can't help but think, we are getting a year extension then he walks for free. Quote

His decision making at times is questionable but yesterday he was a real team player and disciplined in pretty much everything he did. 2 Quote

His legs move fast but his body doesn't - I don't get that. He has shown pace on numerous occasions like yesterday when he sprinted the full half of the pitch when Szmodics went through. His run actually occupied another defender and allowed Szmodics to get his shot away. 2 Quote

Parsonblue Posted April 14, 2024 Posted April 14, 2024 For me, Dolan would always be one of the first names on the teamsheet. His work rate is tremendous and even when some of his decision making lets him down, he never stops trying. He never hides on the pitch when things aren't always going his way. I don't get the theory that he's not quick - he's shown that on numerous occasions, and his control and pass yesterday was a perfect example of what he can bring to the team. His attitude, the setbacks he faced in life, the way he has overcome his struggles with mental health, would suggest that this is the short of lad you want representing your club. For me, he is one player that I would want to get signed up to a new contract. I've always believed that he is a cracking little player. The fact he has played so many games, under three different managers, would suggest that he his highly regarded by those who work with him on a daily basis. 7 Quote

Dolan has been waiting to see what division we would be in before committed his future here but I expect he will re-sign here Quote

When you keep up with someone, you are not faster than them. If you think Dolan is fast so-be-it. By the way Szmodics isn't fast either. Edited April 14, 2024 by rigger 1 Quote
