Of course he’s limited, as Torpey was limited. Beck’s a straight forward no frills targetman as was the aforementioned Torpey. What do you expect him to do exactly, Glide past players and start running the channels ?
I’m guessing you’re a new fan because you obviously have no idea what Torpey offered or what John Murphy offered Blackpool offered back in the day who was a similar type of player.
Those type of strikers are there to get the best out of others and not necessarily shine themselves. All they are there to do really is occupy defenders, lay the ball off and win flick on’s.
Torpey also knew what places to occupy; Beck didn’t. Taking into account the lower standard, I still don’t think he was very good for a target man. Beck was a yard off and I wasn’t expecting him to play a mirror image of Carlton. I said this previously, but why read that when you can make a highly presumptive tweet full of your usual flibbergibbet style?
