That Ladapo miss at the end 18:55 - Feb 18 with 4696 viewsDubtractor

Remarkable! Good job it was an irrelevance.

Good overall performance today, albeit a bit of an odd game as the gulf between the teams was huge, but we really are too wasteful aren't we?

Main observation - whenever they are fit we absolutely have to get Chaplin and Broadhead in the starting lineup.

I was born underwater, I dried out in the sun. I started humping volcanoes baby, when I was too young.

What I really liked today, was the number of players making late runs into the box and attacking the ball / crosses , we haven’t done anywhere near enough of that this season. Quite impressed with us today and Ladapo should have buried that second chance he had too.

We really must be better at converting our chances by homer_123 18 Feb 2023 15:25
Again...should easily 2 or 3 up.

Tactics and approach spot on....but again poor finishing.

Feel for Ladapo. He hit form, then McKenna 'drops' him for two games. Yes yes, subs are an important part of McKenna Ball, but it probably dented his confidence somewhat.

Yeah, he was far from the only wasteful finisher today!

If it helps, my 22/1 acca was let down by a 93rd minute equaliser at Sunderland.

I watched the warm up today, the shooting/heading was actually really poor.

Seems silly us discussing this after a 4-0 win, however, we won’t get that many chances in a playoff game, so need to step it up a bit

We’ll be good again... one day

Don't agree that he'd take being dropped personally. He knows the system.

BUT - I do feel it may affect his form. I've always said this about Ladapo that he always looks better starting games and always struggles coming on from the bench.

Correct. No needs to make sure people get shared game Time.

If you have a scoring striker. You play the scoring striker.

Right. Great movement to find space in the box but almost harder to miss the target than not. Imagine that at 0-0!

And that’s exactly the point, that miss at 0 0 would have been spoken about for hours afterwards, that’s the difference with having the adequate Ladapo, to a different class ………, I can’t think of number 9 who would elevate team to the next level !!

Better a striker that complacently misses a sitter to score their second and our fifth than a striker with no goals in 7 league appearances, I'd say.

Can't we just have a striker who can hit the target from 4 yards out in front of goal regardless of whether he has or hasn't scored in this game or any of his previous 10 games. He does an awful lot well and works hard most of the time, but what we actually need him to do is score those chances or at very worst make the keeper make a save

There's no striker in the world that doesn't miss chances (check out a couple of the absolute sitters Haaland missed at the weekend).

I've not seen Haaland's but did he miss the target completely? I know the point you are making but to miss the goal completely from that close!

Two sides to every coin , Hirst needs game time to get fully up to speed we need both him and Freddy in top form .
