Wrexham defender Ben Tozer has spoken out about his time at the club, naming one thing he changed as club captain after his arrival.
The 33-year-old, who joined the club from Cheltenham back in 2021, has been a crucial player under Phil Parkinson throughout his two years at the club.
Since his arrival, Tozer has played 89 times for the club, scoring five times – with his long throws being a key asset to Parkinson’s playstyle.
He was announced as Wrexham club captain after his arrival, with his leadership key in the club’s record-breaking promotion campaign from the National League last season.
Tozer on what he’s changed at Wrexham
Speaking on The Everyday Perspective Podcast, Wrexham captain Tozer spoke in detail about what he changed within the dressing room after his arrival.
“I’ll be honest when I signed the ticket situation was a shambles, there was no fine system in place, with the standards being pretty average.
“I sort of had to raise them, pick them up and run with them and make sure the dressing room runs itself with no issues going back to the management.
“I had to make sure that I was a lynchpin between the gaffer and the lads – so I was just trying to keep peace within the dressing room and sometimes you can be seen as a bad cop but it had to be done.”
A real leader in Ben Tozer
Whilst on the pitch he’s maintained high standards, off the pitch he seems to instilled it off the pitch too.
From implementing fines to maintain the standards expected, to giving honest verdicts about when he and the team aren’t performing well enough, he’s brought a real sense of leadership to the Wrexham dressing room.
He was vital in the promotion push last campaign, with Tozer hopefully being a key part in another season of success for the club.
