Good lord, most of the goals in that highlights reel are the result of horrific defensive errors.
Looks like this lad is being touted around other clubs by his agent. I just don’t see this happening, if it does however, I trust Dan Ashworths judgement.

Cheers for posting.
Looks quite good, not sure he'll be allowed to play in the PL, without the customary Gaston Ramirez shin pads.
It might be okay in the lower leagues, but after all we are PL

Living in Peterborough he is the golden boy and has stood out in their push for promotion. Definitely a talent but still raw and it’s a gamble.
However his price is quoted locally as £11m. Posh live on gate receipts and will struggle without them which is why they have to sell. They may sell three or four other players or just Toney which would give them cash over try and find a replacement for another push next season.
It’s a gamble but not really for a premier club.

Should have posted on this thread instead of the general which strikers thread.
The Posh model is interesting. Sign young hungry strikers proven at cL2 or Conf level and then play the team a certain way to showcase their talents, even if it means the team can get exposed defensively and sell for a huge profit: exhibit A
CMS
MacLean
Bennett
Washington
Assombalonga
Tomlin
Gayle
All of whom haven’t quite repeated their breakthrough seasons form. Arguably Gayle is the outlier to this but whilst they are decent enough they were made to look better with the style of play.
Typically they look to play a style create chance after chance after chance so if you look at conversion rates they’d be on the low side.
I’m not saying he isn’t undoubtedly talented but I don’t think us or any Prem club should take a punt now.

All power and pace, a real handful and a nightmare for defenders to come up against. Reminds me very much of a young Marcus Bent.

Quoted by who though? Darragh Whatshisface who is the most important man in the world........in Darraghland.
When you've got a product to sell you can set the price as high as you like, doesn't mean anyone is going to pay it.
Has anyone ever paid that sort of money for a third division footballer?
They'll do well to get £5m for him.
And after CMS its very much a no from me.

Could be useful if we are relegated
"Toney began the 2019–20 season with seven goals in the first seven league games, concluding with a hat-trick in a 6–0 home win over Rochdale on 14 September. The following month, he asked a chant sung by Peterborough fans about the size of his genitalia to be changed to make it more family-friendly."
