to get promotion, just never seen a side so poor in front of goal, if he doesnt sign at least a couple of strikers now he never will, truly dreadful. Even with our first 11, Morsy looks like biggest goal threat, just consistently trying to walk the ball in the goal, who actually trains the finishing, its embarrassing. |  |

Without Ladapo we have no out and out strikers. JJ untried and tested Jackson not a chance 10 to 12 max if we are ultra lucky | | | |

With respect you're comparing two different teams in your OP.
Our first pick eleven are doing fine so far.
And it's far too early in the season to even be having these conversations.
Don't panic just yet. |  |

Tonight doesn’t prove that at all though does it. Near enough every single player on the pitch was a reserve.
No chance we will sign two strikers when we already have two in the building and only play one up front.
We have four points and three goals from 2 games, it’s hardly something to panic about is it. |  |

Morsey got a wonder goal Saturday without it , it would have been last season all over again people must see this | | | |

Not sure a striker solves the issues of tonight. We don’t know how to create chances against teams who sit back and defend. |  |

Got a draw against Bolton thanks to a pre-ordained set piece move, scoring no others, and beat Forest Green thanks to a wonder goal.
We are still not converting enough 'simple' changes considering the amount we create. Ladapo has been consistently left abandoned up front without much support against both Bolton and Forest Green then the subs have proven tonight that they'd struggle to score in a brothel.
Something isn't sitting right and it hasn't since McKenna has come in when it comes to converting chances. | |

And Walton put in a 9 out of 10 performance (according to the EADT, best after Morsy in the twtd fans ratings.)If you need a 9 out of 10 from your keeper to beat FGR, you're nowhere near being a genuine promotion contender. | | | |

Well said. Did we create one clear cut chance on Saturday. Not sure we did. Two speculative efforts that went in. Bolton had one decent defender who kept our strikers at bay. FGR could easily have beaten us on Saturday. We look slow, uncreative and very shaky in defence when put under pressure. | | | |

I took grief for suggesting we need to manage our expectations by those who kept banging on about automatic being a given and all that.
It's a long season and we've not even scratched the surface.
This is just the sort of reaction I was concerned about.
What I would say about these cup games is there was a time that even when we fielded a second team we always had a few big guns on the bench to save the day if things weren't panning out.
We don't seem to have that couple of big guns atm. [Post edited 9 Aug 2022 22:21]

Having seen Ladopo, i'm not convinced that he's going to get you the goals required either... |  |

Outside of the cup run under Keane, when was the last time this was the case? We've been embarrassed in the cup left, right and centre over the past eleven years and, the semi final year aside, some time before that too. | |

Christ I don't know.
It wasn't recent that's for sure.
Point being we are missing a couple of 'stars' if you like. I was trying not to use that phrase as it sounds absurd given where we are.
But you know what I mean. There's no feeling that if it's all going wrong we can call on a player or two you know will be a game-changer. A Gio if you like. Anyone that bit special.
I'm not using the 'C' word that's for sure. I'm not suicidal. | |

Agree 100%....It's been the same ever since McKenna came in - we've not looked anywhere near enough of a goal threat. We didn't score anywhere near enough goals in the 2nd half of last season & in the first 3 games this season, I've failed to see anything different being done.
People seem to think that we'll sign a striker and then the goals will flow....i just don't see that being the case. There is more an emphasis on keeping the ball rather than actually moving it quickly trying to create chances. | |
