Yeah, it's your last point

I don't really blame him for squandering value (that'd be harsh), but playing alongside Max the difference in how they've conducted themselves has been pretty stark.

Though, as you say, that could be down to the positions they play.

I guess I think he's got enough talent to adapt to a different system, and indeed, if he achieves that elsewhere - good for him.

The indifference is probably also driven by quite a lot of fans slagging Farke for his man management of Todd, only to see things be worse, if anything, under a new manager (who seemed open to giving him a chance).

Just a shame all round.
