Dont want to dampen the upbeat feel but, you have to take into account the opposition quality, tactics etc too....its not just about us. Still nice to win tho 🤪 There are definite signs that things are starting to click but yeh, That's what I’ve been saying, it was a weakened Wigan side, we shouldn’t get too carried away over it.

They’re obviously under orders to get more shots off after the qpr game, we had 24 last night, 6 of them were on target and we scored 1, hopefully accuracy improves otherwise the only people in for a pasting are the fans sat behind the goal 🙂 it depends on the quality of the shot as well 10 shots outside the box will be equal to a shot from just outside the 6 yard box. thankfully, we look like we are getting shots off inside the box

The more you see the less you can understand the failure to sign Gayle! We are not scoring because we don't have a decent striker and are relying on second rate players to do the job.False economy. Realistically, the only way we could have signed Gayle (and paid his wage demands ) without falling foul of FFP and ending up with a points deduction would have been to have sold either Butland or Allen. That would have enabled us to not fall foul of FFP. As we don't seem to have had reasonably high bids for either of them, I don't think we could have signed Gayle. Hindsight might suggest that there was scope to do a deal for Butland with Villa but at a price which (at the time) seemed unreasonably low.

Is accuracy something you can improve much on though ? I would imagine shooting practice is already a staple of most training sessions ? I think you’ve either got it or you haven’t.

That phrase remind me of its cousin: "Keep playing that and we'll be fine".
