Most likely.

Howver I wonder if the likes of Chopra would have missed the opportunities Miller has?

Honestly I doubt it.

Just to confirm; its been 10 games (including league and cup) since Kenny Miller hasnt scored. His last goal being a first half strike against Portsmouth.

With Vuckic gone back to Newcastle, I wonder if Earnie makes the subs bench.

1 in 13.

Simply not good enough.

Shape up or ship out.

I blame malky for not addong to his striker options in jan or the loan window.

Miller is quality,

Playing up front on your own is no easy job, his work rate and awareness is second to none.

Who have we that is better???(please don't say Gestede because i'm better than him!!)

Mason/whittingham are the other two that are quality, then we're clutching at straws.(Mcnaughton aswell sorry)

Miller hasn't scored in 10 but has had a goal disallowed however.

And to refer to Annis saying he doubts Chopra or other strikers have missed the chances Miller has had, they have. And they missed even worse ones too.

To prove a striker that is quality but isn't getting luck look at Torres. 23 mins away from 24 full hours on the pitch without a goal. He still gets into goal scoring opportunities, just keeps getting them saved.

Chopra, missed a few open goals. That's worse than anything Millers done.

Jay, missed a lot of chances on his Barron run last year before scoring against qpr at home.

Why all the hate for Miller when our past strikers went through the same? (no I'm not saying torres was a past striker. I wish though!)

Yes players like them have missed many chances, but I think Millers ratio is one goal in every 15 shots. Miller works hard/gives his all/gets in the right positions/is excellent in his contributions/skilful, but in front of goal at this present moment he is looking awful.

Annis four weeks back you said it was 1 in 10 , three weeks back you said it was 1 in 12, last week 1in 13, this week 1 in 15

Chopra and Jay were getting almost 8 shots a game and missing every chance for at least 10 + games.

Fernando Torres has scored twice in 45 shots this season. There is no doubting he has the ability of a world class striker, hes just getting unlucky infront of goal.

Its the same case with Miller, he's getting unlucky. The goals will come

KM May not have been scoring hat trick's every game but His work rate and positioning is second to none, And it baffles me why Cardiff play him on His own because a genuine target Man would thrive off KM experience and vice'versa, If you havent already noticed where ever KM go's half of the opposition go's with Him and He still manges to find a constructive pass-lay off constructively, Come guy's We cant just look at the goal stats with KM. It has always pickled My brain why players like Alan Lee' Fortune' Even Peter Thorn to a degree get cult worship when players like KM get stick, Bare in mind its not KM that picks the Team. :old:
