Glad to see Harris in, I've not seen much of him but have heard positive reviews. Happy to see Vaulks in the starting 11 too.

2-0 City :bluescarf:



We've won 3 games !! the lost games and drawn games have been down to defensive errors ..... all well and good to concede only 13 goals but losing majority by odd goal because of bad defending is a reason to be upset when he doesn't address this.


If the attacking end is doing their job, conceding 1 goal in the worst case scenario would lead us to earning 1 point. There definitely have been errors at the back, but I still feel the back 4 selected is our strongest one (I haven't seen enough of Benkovic to assume he's better).

We are failing to create chances, and when we do create them we're not clinical enough. Only 8 teams have conceded less than us, 13 have scored more.

We're currently averaging 1 goal scored per game, 1 goal conceded. Generally you need to be scoring around 1.5 goals or more a game to reach the top 6, whilst conceding 1 per game would be okay.



Yes precisely the problem that us Fans are saying the tactics are wrong and is putting defence under pressure.. and there again point being the defenders hes playing cannot play the way he wants and tactics are to negative. Put 2 & 2 together and get the results we are seeing.. so if he insists on playing this way he needs to change defence then conceding stupid goals wont matter?


We've had the 5th most shots in the division and have the 2nd lowest goal conversion rate. There lays our problem, in my opinion.



Can use stats like shots but where did those shots go? Certainly not on target from what I've seen so far! Anyway will wait with great expectations at the conversion rate increasing with the changes made today take back all I've said.. :mrgreen: :thumbup:

That was precisely my point, we're not converting our shots into goals - so there is our problem. Anyway, most importantly we've been much better today (so far at least). Bluebirds :bluescarf:

Excellent first half and credit to Mark Harris, so refreshing to see movement from a striker into the right areas.

What defensive problems,we have conceded 3 goals in the last four games and not more than one in any individual game that is the defensive record of a playoff side at least.

So it's an attacking/midfield problem? And defence is great so conceding stupid goals is not a problem ? Guess we are all barking up the wrong tree past couple of weeks on here then..
Take Barnsley out equation so last 3 games conceded 3 lost 2 drew 1 not bad then :old:
