We're out of idea's. Simple as. We've just passed up the opportunity of 5 points and now have the task of getting them against tougher sides.
The points required has now moved up to 35, the highest it's been for 3 months (it was only 32 on Jan 1st). We need 16 points from 15 games. We need a minimum of 4 wins & 4 draws.
In fairness, we've been mainly out of ideas on how to break down teams all season when there's been any sort of onus on us.
I make it 6 goals from set pieces, 1 penalty, 3 worldies from outside the box, 4 thanks to gifts from Fulham. I can't recall that many really decent team goals all season.
5 of those games against the big boys who we dont look like even making a game of it, let alone take a point, so we need 16 from 10 according to your calculations.
1.6 a game and we’ve been taking 1.18 against sides outside top 6, albeit we’ve played most at home already.
Need a 35% improvement or rely on another team completely capitulating.
Not looking great
.
Absolutely.
I think in hindsight after Leicester everyone, myself included, has gone a bit overboard on Camarasa.
I tend to agree with Tuerto that we are so starved of actual footballers that the a player who shows the slightest little bit of technical skill and we are going overboard.
I hate the notion that we played the same tactics/quality from start to finish last season. The first quarter of the season was exciting and brilliant and the points CARRIED us through..
then
HOOFBALL!!!!!!!!
In all of the years reading this messageboard, this is the craziest suggestion I've seen. Warnock is possibly the best manager we've had in my lifetime and has taken us from dissaray to a squad that is easily capable of challenging for automatic promotion again next year (if we go down). Wasn't that the aim at the beginning of the season? We were going to build a squad of players that would strengthen us if we were likely going to be relegated.
