Despite his good form in the Czech league, Toleski has failed to feature for the national team since the team's unsuccessful campaign to qualify for Euro 2008 and he doesn't seem to happy about it.
The attackers had more than a few harsh words to say to Katenac and is unlikely to receiving a recall any time soon.
"It will be the best if Katanec reviews his work instead of throwing all the blame on the players," Toleski said according to Macedonianfootball.com.
The 31 year-old compared his experience in Prague with that of the national team -unfavourably.
"Dear coach, I am playing in a big club and I am working with a great coach and I see every day how is to be a true professional player. But when I compare all that professional work with your work, I can't see anything in common.
"For example, you've said that you've never ever watched a video of the opponents and that you are not interested in the opponent, which for me is total rubbish. In that case, on what basis do you create your tactics for the matches? We at Slavia watch videos twice a week, and many other even bigger clubs do the same.
"I know that because I've talked with Vladimír Šmicer, a Champions League winner with who every conversation is a big experience. Our assistant coaches scan our opponents live and based on their views we create our tactics."
" Also, once you've called me in the national team and I saw what kind of trainings you do, three corners and a penalty. I think that you remember those training sessions in Ohrid because I will never forget them. I saw how you were training us for the matches against Russia and Estonia when you forgot to tell us about the positioning of every player in the defense and attacking corner situations and free kicks. If you remember well, we conceded the first goal in that kind of situation, and the behavior of the players in that moment was chaotic."
