I think the problem has more to do with us not creating chances Under Jos, we create the second least chances of all the championship clubs That’s a sad indictment, and one of the main reasons we aren’t a very good watch Link to post Share on other sites

One of the stato's on here put stats on one of the other threads saying Nando has only started 22 out of our last 93 games, fletcher had played in the 30s can't remember how joao has faired, but he's been in and out of the side more tines than a puppy that's just discovererd the door leads to the garden. Our problem is players, either due to injury or rotation never get chance to gain any real run of form. Look at Nuhiu last season?, some were saying it was becouse he was playing for a new contract, maybe it was becouse he started nearly all our last 18/20 games and got some form, rather than in, out, in, out shake it all about Link to post Share on other sites

That’s because they always take the game to the opposition. What I find criminal about Jos’s tactics is, that in Bannan, Reach and Forestieri, we have some of the best creative talents in the division Why oh why, do we just go backwards Link to post Share on other sites

However, as Nigel Clough said, after his clubs victory over Forest, he wasn’t confident in his defence, so decided to go on the attack We should do the same, as our creative players are wasted, scuttling around trying to protect the back line.

Mountain Owl 2,830 Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Its only what we would produce for them if the boot we're on the other foot. The tides very much in their favour at the moment and it will probably get much worse before it gets better. However who knows what's round the corner, football is very strange and anything can happen. Eventually the tide will turn back in our favour. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
