Rydog, you "had a feeling" that Saadi was going to be a massive success for us so I'll take your latest "feeling" with a very large pinch of salt!

Freddy's miss was an absolute shocker - my granny could have scored that and she's been dead 20 years.
Pilkington had a decent chance which he tried to lob but put straight into the keeper's hands and Zohore didn't offer much threat at all.
You can make excuses for all of them to be fair - Freddy is palying in his first competitive game at this level, Pilks is NOT a striker and is being asked yet again to play a role which is not natural to him, and Zohore only comes on late in the game and has to try to make an instant impact.
But I can't help that feel that with a decent striker we could have won that game today quite comfortably.

got to agree with you I think we are only one player away from having a very strong 1st team capable of getting promotion, we need a 20 goal a season striker ,Lewis grabham on loan would fit the bill
