Or it could be that the game opens up and we can build dominance when a team has had to chase us around the pitch for 60 minutes. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
Not a great performance, good signs towards the end, BUT... on 14:51 - Feb 10 with 765 views | cbower | Just felt he waited far too long with the substitutions. Burns, and I love him, showed nothing. No real intention to run his man beyond the first 20 minutes and his touch was poor throughout. Hutch should have been on at 60 for me. Harness not the one I'd have brought on with Sarmiento chomping at the bit. Al Hamadi needs more minutes. Ok, it might need a change of formation to get Moore and Al Hamadi on for 25 minutes but so be it. Sometimes a change is needed isn’t it? We all criticised Paul Cook when he rigidly stuck to a formation didn’t we? Hladky should have done better for the second and Wolf was abysmal for the opener. Reading this back it's a bit of a moan I know. Just can’t allow myself to let the last 10 minute onslaught mask the fact we allowed them to control us too much as we were too slow and played infront of them for too much of the game. | ![](/images/avatars/3586.gif) |

Got to be time to change it a bit with the new blokes! Can’t keep everyone a head start before we even begin to compete | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Was going to agree until you mentioned ‘control us’ at the end of your post. The TownTV stats are astonishing - anyone reading them who hadn’t seen the game would think we’d totally dominated from start to finish. 65-35 possession; 21-5 shots; 5-2 shots on target; 9-3 corners; 32-10 crosses; 339-96 attacking passes!

How many of those shots came in injury time though ? Plus a number of teams lately have demonstrated you don't need lots of shots at goal, you only need the couple to go in to count. How about a stat about how many goals Town concede within the first 20 mins of games this season ? It didn't matter when we outscored the opposition easily, but we are consistently giving ourselves a big disadvantage nearly every game now. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

I don’t disagree at all, was pointing out how astonishing those stats were. There’s another thread on other sides’ recent 7/7 shots on target scored compared with ours, which is of course an issue. | ![](/images/avatars/1567.gif) |

I make you right with all of those points, but at the same time it's hard to be critical at this point, because all of those options have worked well through most of the season. Get out of this slump and we'll be firing again, using all of those options and others. | ![](/images/avatars/18301.gif) |
