DJ_NUFC Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 Welcome to the forum! Well I'd rather he be shooting at the keeper than wide, getting shots on target is the first step, so that's promising. Is this a serious post? Is this what we've come to, as a team placed 19th in the table in April, party due to the same guy who never should've been signed as the sole striker to do exactly the opposite of what you're describing? I'm sure we'll all be happy he's getting into positions, shooting at the keeper, etc., when we head to the Championship and he leaves to some other club.

Kanji Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 Just fucking back him for 8 games. Just like Darlow and everyone. I think we all want to stay up and keep Rafa right? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 Mitrovic's problem isn't that he has a bad shot, it's that he simply doesn't shoot enough. Watches Kane for Spurs the other week, had chance after chance, which he kept missing. By the end of the game he had his goal. Now, of course, this is Harry Kane and Spurs we are talking about. They create chances for their strikers but their strikers create chances for themselves. Mitro doesn't. When he gets his chance, often his shots are tame. Bobby Charlton said he used to aim for the keeper and hit the ball as hard as he could (knowing that he would miss the keeper). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanji Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Just f***ing back him for 8 games. Just like Darlow and everyone. I think we all want to stay up and keep Rafa right? I don't get this whole 'back him / the team' stuff. What the f*** else can we do? We've been backing these c***s for f***ing 20 years of my watching football I'm not saying don't slag him normally, I'm specifically saying these 8 games. Read my post. There's no point slagging any of these cunts off right now as we need performances out of every single player on the pitch to stay up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CPL Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Something's changed in him definitely. Massive threat today We put crosses in for him. Similar to Carroll, but the ball in the box and he will be a nuisance for the defenders. Was no surprise when him and Cisse were on together we looked a threat and actually scored a couple of goals and maybe should have had a third. I hate football.

Ketsbaia Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Priority #1 is to keep him in the Championship and I think we will. Quite frankly, he's the only one who gives a shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Commentator said Norwich have conceded most goals from crosses this season. If that's true then it was a very poor decision not to start him, unless he was carrying a slight knock. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
triggs Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Something's changed in him definitely. Massive threat today We put crosses in for him.

We've got crosses in before and he's been flat on his feet and not even challenged, way different today I'd imagine it really helps that he has another striker in there alongside him when these crosses are coming in.

joeyt Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Something's changed in him definitely. Massive threat today We put crosses in for him. We've got crosses in before and he's been flat on his feet and not even challenged, way different today The crosses today (and the goal against Sunderland) were floated to the back post or the middle where's he's dominant. When Janmaat and others are flashing it across the box when Mitro is the only attacker in the box or hitting it straight to the keeper he doesn't have a chance. He's waiting for the floated ones to the back post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Aye, he had a good game, but part of the reason that we're in this position is because he's just not good enough at this stage. He's missed sitters all season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Had to start after scoring against Sunderland. Norwich CBs are not that physical either and so would have been very effective. Cisse starting such a crucial away game where Norwich were going to be coming at us meant we had no one upfront to help hold the ball and release pressure. Not to mention he had a stormer against them earlier this season. Damn shame. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
