Is Toja going to lose the team?

The return of the couple Ovidiu Petre - Pleşan and Tănase’s movement on the left side may leave the Columbian midfielder on the reserve bench

Not only that Stoichiţă received critics and accuses from the fans and the press after the match from Istanbul, where he lost with 2-1 against Fenerbahce, but once with Tănase’s return, he will have now the extremely difficult task of choosing the 11 titles whom he will use tomorrow night, in the match with Unirea Alba Iulia.

THE COUPLE OVIDIU PETRE – PLEŞAN COMES BACK
The most probable, Tănase won’t be used as the second forward, but on the left extreme, especially that even Răzvan Lucescu announced the officials from Steaua that he is going to replace Mutu with the young football player brought by Becali from Piteşti. Then, just because of the fact that he was very dissatisfied with the way the team played in the centre of the field with Fener, it almost sure that this will bring back Ovidiu Petre and Pleşan as titles, whom it won the derby from Timişoara.

But in these conditions, raises a dilemma which is very important for "Lippi". Where and if it is the case to keep a room in the basic team for Juan Toja? On the right side he won’t be for sure, because it is sure that there will be Nicoliţă, and on the attack side he will choose the offensive couple between Kapetanos, Dayro and Surdu, the most probable he will choose the last two, rested at Istanbul.

TOJA LOST HIS PLACE ON THE LEFT SIDE
In the centre he was totally dissatisfied with the Columbian and he has close Petre and Pleşan, more fresh and with much more experience, and on the left side he must use Tănase. 99% Toja will be reserve on Monday with Alba Iulia and he could lose his post of title in the future if the team deals without him.

THE ARGUMENT OF HIS MAINTENANCE AT THE TEAM

He is Gigi’s and Virgil’s favourite!
Toja is among the fewest football players from this team, together with Ovidiu Petre and Bogdan Stancu, whom Gigi Becali has never criticized. The Columbian has always been the sponsor’s favourite, who lauded him no matter the way he evolved. That is why; Becali’s clear option in his favor could be the main reason that may determine Stoichiţă not to exclude him from the team.

THE REASONS OF HIS ELIMINATION

Weak results in this season
» he played in 14 matches in the championship and in the UEFA Cup
» he scored only one goal
» he managed the contra-performance of receiving 6 yellow cards and one red
» he scored one auto goal with Gloria Bistriţa
» he didn’t offered not even one decisive pass, although he played in 99% of the cases as coordinating midfielder

It is the penult in the top of GSP
Another proof of Toja’s weak performance in this season is the average of the marks given by GSP for the matches from the championship and from Europe League. 5,69 is the average of the marks received by the Columbian, being on the penult place among those who played at least 4 matches in this season. The last and the only one behind him is Ninu, with 5,45.

0 goals scored Toja in all the 11 matches played for Steaua in the European cups during august 2008 - November 2009

0,4 4 is the average in one match of the shots which Toja forwarded in this season, a very low average for a coordinating midfielder

1,4 is the average in one match of the roll-outs performed by the Columbian midfielder in all the matches he played in 2009-2010

3 goals scored the South-American midfielder in the 31 matches in which he played for Steaua in League 1

200.000 euro is the salary which Toja has at Steaua, one of the biggest salaries from the team coached by Stoichiţă
