It certainly does lie at the door of Hemmings but in the last 2 games since lockdown and in many of the games since around Xmas time, do you seriously think we've had the intensity this side so badly needs to show, to cement a top 6 place? Of course chances need to be taken, we are barely creating them though an that lies with Alex
Personally think Sinclair has looked decent since the restart. Scored last week, unlucky not to score today, arguably should have won a pen and if Stockley had let the ball run early on he would have buried the chance.
You have a proper striker and they get themselves in positions where the chances almost create themselves. We have an immensely talented midfield but when there is nobody in the right position for them to get the ball to it is wasted
He's played Stockley today in exactly the way he's played him, in other games. Too deep, looking to hold up, mainly flick on. He lost his battle on that front. I wanted to see him on the end of crosses in the 6 yard box, that very rarely happened because we play the same rigid way now
Morrison had the beating of Stockley all day. He should have moved onto Nelson earlier. Whether that was down to the manager or the player I don't know but if I were a striker and I was getting beat to every header I'd try my damndest to avoid being near that defender.
We got found out
No, we just stopped being so clinical. We haven’t created many chances all season, the difference is that we were taking them until November.
Tbf, the amount of pens we should’ve had but haven’t been given is starting to take the piss. That was one of the most stonewall you’ll ever see today and he was looking straight at it. Bizarre.
Yeah that was mentioned in commentary, not sure if Stockley is slightly the taller of the 2. I did expect him to win a few more headers than what he did but if we are persistently going to use him in this way, he's never going to be goalscoring threat which we obviously need
Clinical
Skied it high and wide from the corner of the six yard box when it was put on a plate for him.
11 penalties masks just how unclinical (not a word) we are
We can blame hemmings for not signing a quality striker all day long, the way AN sets us up gives no service to the frontline so we could have any quality striker upfront and still come away with the same result. Grayson had Hugill £25,000 to work with but knew how to get the best out of him and play to his strengths
I can’t look
