Think the midfielders need to look at their self more than the strikers today. They need to create our strikers chances. Hutchinson and Reach?...how hard do the chances have to be? Fox header, FF on the turn?..Fletchers scuffed shot first half? Poor display of marksmanship today I thought The lad we brought on for Boyd is nippy tho!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S36 OWL Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Just got home. Poor game , but the big positive was another clean sheet . Definitely two points dropped. We need a striker in the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first two are the only clear chances we had. Hutchinson and Reach both midfielders not strikers. The other chances were only half chances.

Do you really HAVE to be a striker to put the ball in from 6 yds Birley? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope..I take your point..I thought Fletcher had to do too much work in areas where he isn't dangerous...Fox didn't seem to want to move into space, and Reach got around the back and couldn't pick a man out several times... FF rarely turned his man like he used to, he was happy to lay it off...He frustrated me cos wouldn't try it in their half, but has no inhibitions trying it just outside our penalty area 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've turned a corner cannot win every week, we are now creating more chances per game than we have done for 18 month. Need to remember that, a point today is a point more than we would have got with the tashed warrior in charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think even Jos would have got us a point against this lot This is absolutely no dig at Bruce, I’m over the moon he’s with us It’s a dig at the players.

alanharper Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Thought we were OK in the first half, can't remember the last time we had 4 shots on target in the first 10 minutes! Or 7 on target in the first half, albeit only 2 of them actually forcing the keeper to work. Then in the second half - zero shots on target tells it's own story. When I saw their keeper's name on the scoreboard I remembered that we had a keeper on loan from Arsenal about 5-6 years ago with the same name who I'd almost completely forgotten and I wondered whatever happened to him. Now I've just found out that it was actually the same player! And still on Arsenal's books after all this time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
