SUPERTOON Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 We will look much better once Joelinton moves back centrally and we can get an actual quality attacker on the left hand side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBrownBottle Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 1 minute ago, David Edgar said: Teams don't score from corners very often. It is something like 1 every 12. But it feels like we haven't scored in 120 corners. Can’t remember the precise figure, but it’s around 2-3% of PL corners result in a goal Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 We absolutely need to work on our attacking set pieces though. It seems to be that they are weak as fuck and have no prospect of leading to a goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superior Acuña Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Feel like it's a real sign of where we've come that I'm pretty disappointed with an away draw to a solid midtable team. Not really too bad a result, but definitely need to do something about struggling for goals in these games - definite change where everyone is happy with a draw against us.

Geogaddi Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Decent point ,teams know if they just sit in against us and make it hard we struggle to score as most teams would, still none of the teams around us have made up any points on us which is the main thing .

worthy Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Just now, Chris_R said: We're so solid at the back but because teams know how good we are there going to sit back a lot against us and we packed any way to unlock them. We always seem to want one too many touches and for all our play and chances I don't think (m)any of them were what I'd call clear cut chances that I thought we should put away. So we need creative reinforcements, and to get the creative players we have (ASM, Isak) on the pitch from the start We need to get Longstaff out of the starting 11 and get someone with way better end product and someone that can contribute on all three positions up front. Or a straight pure DM so Bruno G can take Longstaff's position. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaqen Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Dominated and controlled the game just a bit toothless upfront. Need to give ASM a run of starts now I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nine Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Tbf they did well with their game management, turned it into a slow paced shit fest of a game and got a point out of it (could have been 3). Not our best day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 (edited) Disappointing, but without Pope it would have been awful. Understandable that Howe went like-for-like with the subs, Wilson for Isak was the right call, but Willock has every right to be disappointed about coming off, especially with the hindsight of us losing our threat down that side when he went off and Longstaff offering nothing throughout. Pope: 9 Trippier: 7.5 Schar: 7.5 Botman: 7 Burn: 6.5 Bruno: 7 Joelinton: 7 Longstaff: 5 Willock: 8 Wilson: 4 Almiron: 6.5 ASM: 7 Isak: 7 Murphy: 7 Edited January 21, 2023 by Kid Icarus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveM Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Frustrating to watch that, two points dropped. Should of been up in the first half. on the plus side, a point is a point. Another clean sheet. Brilliant save by pope, schar stood out to me at the back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonas Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Our dominance is seldom reflected in a flow of goals. Forest on day one was no different, took a Schar worldy. Were punching above our weight and this is a symptom of a mix or purples and Ashley players. The team covers for individual limits. When was unbeaten run we've just beat?

We shouldn't struggle to score though. In all these 0-0s we have enough chances to win 10-0 but our finishing is beyond horrific. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am still proud as fuck of this team and my expectations at the start of the season were 6-8, we are currently well above that so yes I am frustrated with another draw but with the players we have got we are doing a fantastic job. We are still playing the same and dominating the matches, just lacking the end product. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And probably would initially as Longstaff has a lot of defensive duties that Willock doesn't/can't fulfill. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
