I agree apart from the get rid of Conor, first we need at least 3 senior strikers ,at the moment we have only 2,secondly we wouldn't get back the money we paid for him but most importantly I wouldn't write him off quite yet,he may still come good

Also, people don't see a correlation between creativity and penalty winning? If you're winning penalties, you're getting into dangerous positions through creativity..."What stats allow you to do is not take things at face value.

Bloody hell who cares how we score? We scored loads of pens during our promotion season. We are only 3 games in and we've scored 7 league goals. Not bad for a team that many experts on here predicted would struggle for goals. We also hit the post twice against leeds(both from open play) and the woodwork again last night. I'm sure if we give it more than 270 minutes the goals from Brazilian style open play will flow. I seem to remember people pointing out that we never scored from corners and set pieces before, can't win.

Originally posted by West London is Rss View PostI think you need to understand Stan that this team is a work in progress, it's no-where near the finished article - JFH has made no secret of the fact he wants us to control games more and be more attacking, and that he wants to bring a couple more attacking players into the club to help us with this.
To control games you need to start with being solid and have foundations in place. He has done that IMO, and that is the stage we are currently at.
A few more players in through the door and we'll be closer to the finished article.
Quite a few on here doesn´t seem to understand that....QPR
Best team in the world
Sort of

If you're winning penalties, you're getting into dangerous positions through creativity...Originally posted by Hove Ranger View PostGetting penalties is a sign that we are causing danger when attacking. Have all been stonewallers. Not a concern for me.
JFH slightly rectified this in the 2nd half but for me Cousins is wasted on the right. You get the best from him in the middle, therefore I'd bring him in for Henry. Even when he's on the right he still kept drifting inside, so we had no width at all. Yeni needs to play on the right (his best position) and Mide needs to return on the left to give the team better shape and balance.
