Can't understand with the proven goalscorers we have got why play McGuire up front on his own, play him with Stockley or even with Moult as a front three and let them play of each other. The fact is again at Millwall we did not make there keeper make a save, if we want to achieve anything that has to change
 
We lack a natural goalscorer and have a keeper who gifts easy goals. We knew this last season and we are still in the same position. Without both things addressing quickly we will be in the relegation fight.
So we are in a relegation fight !!!

We miss Hugill. Neil's football hasn't been as effective since he left

If that’s the case then surely Neil needs to change his approach to games, not lumping long balls to Maguire would be a good start. Maguire is at his best running at defenders, try playing Stockley with Maguire just behind him or alongside him ??

i'd like to see this but we'd lose alot in midfield or we would just play maguire on the wing

haven't they played enough minutes to show they are top players? Can tell with Stockley he is just a budget Hugill and Moult not good enough, playing them more will just make us worse

Exactly
Moult has had more than enough of an opportunity And simply isn’t good enough

This is the most worrying thing. A top quality Championship keeper gets a stronger hand to the shot and we come away with a point. A natural goalscorer finds that yard of space in the box and is able to get a shot away and we score. The game yesterday was there for the taking and the sort of games that those teams who will challenge for promotion will win.
 
Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't Neil get Norwich promoted playing a 4-4-2/4-4-1-1 with Hoolahan just behind Jerome? Don't really remember Wessi being much of a heavy pressing runner like Browne, Maguire is a much better comparison imo.

I usually stick with and defend Neil to the end but I'd like him to at least try a similar system with Maguire behind Stockley/new striker and Pearson and Gally/Bayliss in midfield.
