Will our competitors in the Championship "find us out" in 2nd half of on 00:06 - Nov 21 by wkj
Km continues to adapt and react. I think it is other teams who are going to discover that we've figured them out
I think we might put a few of those wasted chances away too. We could do with a few more goals and a bit more excitement, especially at home 😀😅😂🤣🥲

Will our competitors in the Championship "find us out" in 2nd half of on 08:16 - Nov 21 with 880 views
I’d say that has happened to an extent after the last international break. Team have set up to make us play more through the middle than using our width.
Previously we had started games at an intense pace whereas the opposition are now the ones getting the early momentum.
We are a team that concedes goals but generally scare more than the opposition. If teams concentrate on nullifying our attack then we will start to lose games.
We will adapt though, just as we did post Frebruay when we hit a bit of a block result-wise. So I’m not concerned in the long term.

Agree with most of this. However regarding paragraph three, while the better teams may be able to nullify our attacking threat while being a threat themselves, it’s hard to do for 90 mins and I doubt the rest of the sides won’t have the ability to do both anyway.
As you say, teams are already trying to do this with mixed success. But they are not lasting the distance. The energy the likes of Cardiff, Plymouth and Swansea put in reaped its rewards, but at a cost. We have threats all over the pitch which makes it so difficult. I agree teams will get better at nullifying us, but we will also adapt (hopefully).
I suspect our results will fall off a bit as the season progresses, but we will win planting of games and I still maintain a team or two are in for a real beating before the end of the season.
