Performance is absolutely irrelevant, just need to find a goal. Had a few half decent chances but the confidence is just non existent. 

 

Aye. Not a bad performance really. A lot of huffing and puffing but no end product, a bit like me after a night on the sauce.

We certainly don't look any better than they do and their signings look as good as ours. If our owners are serious about us staying up they need to go and drop a lot of money in the next two weeks including a new midfield and a striker who can score some goals.

Just lacking composure yet again , we will get 2 big chances we need to take one of them .

 

Pedestrian midfield is slowing the build up and squeezing to many players together , resulting in a muddle of a first half for us .Big Jow should have scored but I will be saying that for a long time yet . 
 

Game is there if we can muster one bit of quality lads.

Feels similar to the first half in the Cambridge game albeit with fewer clear cut chances.

 

Tough to give anyone grief, the commitment is there, just some really poor quality players in key positions.

 

Their LB has been good. I'm liking the physicality Wood brings up front. Need ASM higher up the field, and Longstaff further back.

Two absolute dog shit teams. The difference having Wood compared to Wilson is teams won’t respect the ball in behind.

 

We need to play to his strengths. Go direct.

 

And if we do that, ASM and Fraser should be there sniffing for the loose balls, otherwise why are they on the pitch as one of the front three?

We could pump 50 balls in, in this game, and still not score. Theres nobody with the finishing abilities getting on any of it.

 

Hopefully Wood shows up soon, with a big header or effort and scores.??

Longstaff has been really good. If he keeps this up, then that would be massive to the end of the season.
 

ASM is basically a counter attacking player only. Absolutely useless when he is tightly marked. Can’t hold it up, poor touch, can’t pass. 

 

This is nervy as fuck. 

 

I agree with this. His play is breaking down so many potential moves that could create even more chances for us to score. It's a big problem.

Even though it’s mostly been us and we have put on pressure, we just never look like scoring. Need to start creating real chances.
