Read in another thread (about Rhodes) that some think we are well stocked in this area. Seeing as the most effective strikers we have are regularly out of action, we need to make changes. However, highly unlikely we can offload Fletcher or Nuhiu due to their wages. Probably worth keeping one of Fletcher or Nuhiu, for a plan B option, especially given the injury records of our good strikers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agentwalker Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 The whole setup for me at the moment is a mess attacking wise. We aren't a "team", where just a collection of decent individuals. We are always either looking at Bannan to pull off a worldy pass or for reach to hit a 30 Yarder, or for him to beat several players. All the slick 1 touch passing and movement has gone, hopefully the new guys can get this back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just maybe, he’s not nor ever was the great hope that people think he is. Not given the chance you may say but how many starts did the management at Derby think he merited ? Hope I’m wrong on this obviously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My comment to those that were, the unbeaten run goes on, but if they object to the football now, then they might need to get used to it, according to the Villa fans. It always was going to be a tricky tie, and I’m surprised we managed to keep their free scoring attack at bay Not such a bad result in my view, but again, maybe you should have read the thread first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owls-Fan Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 53 minutes ago, Mountain Owl said: To put it into context Luton unbeaten in last 15 league games incl 11 wins and 4 draws. They lacked quality up front but defended high, pressed all over the pitch and were well organised. They will also be promoted this season and will do ok in the championship next season. Hard game so personally have no complaints. We know where we are lacking and are desperate for some pace up front on both flanks and cutting edge in the box. We are where we are and need a revamp of the squad. Exactly right, we knew before today that we need more pace and creativity down the flanks and a better player than Nuhiu to bring on when we need a goal. Hopefully we can sign some quality this month to make the rest of the season less dull than today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope I’m wrong on this obviously. I'd put him in the unproven bracket. But he is a different option to Fletcher and Nuhiu, so has to stay until the end of the season at least.

TodwickOwl Posted January 5, 2019 Author Share Posted January 5, 2019 They never troubled us - let’s face it, they look a million miles off Championship status - anyone who thinks they played a good game needs their head checking. We are just one dimensional in the final third - ball to Bannan, hope he threads a ball. It’s exactly the same over and over, we rarely work the wings and drive into the box to cross or pull back. It’s all narrow throw middle which is why we’re struggling to score goals. Compare us to the pigs and they’re width and use of the flanks and they score countless amounts of goals in box from playing in behind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiJ Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 We've had a mini-revival of 4 games. As thing stand, we are in the bottom half of the Championship and today played a Luton side who haven't lost in months. Good to see so many of us are operating in reality when it comes to our current team... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SA said in yesterday’s presser that the new regime has had 40mins training with the group. What we saw today is the output of 2 years of decline. It’s going to take time to instil a new philosophy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
