Top Scorers - 2020/21

2 pens for Dykes and scraps the rest of the time.

Hits. I think Dykes is half decent but needs crosses something our team never produce. We are less inventive this year and couple that with fact the manager ignores the defensive part of the game spells a long season for us.

2 weeks left to get our business done...

we wont be getting penalties every game.



Watched him in 4 games now. he huff's and puffs alot around the pitch and likes a challenge.

honestly though, i do not see 15 goals in him.

also, if caroll is eze's replacement, with chair playing on the left, then god help us.



wycombe are gone, who goes with them is the question.

You were doing alright until this ridiculous statement.

How in the fuck can MW be named as possibly on par with the names you mentioned after what we achieved under him last season? Many had us tipped for relegation certainty after a massive squad overhaul on a shoestring budget, with a squad made up of freebies, loans and youngsters. The defensive side of the game was shite and still is, yes. But to finish where we did is some feat. If you honestly think that's as bad as the names you mentioned you need your head tested mate.

And yeah, its gonna be a difficult season, we've lost our attacking threat. I've said no differently. But again, to have him in the same category as them is ridiculous.

When you may consider what players MW had at his disposal I honestly feel we should have done better.

As I have stated before what players has MW brought to the club other than the potential of Masterson and Amos ? Even then looking at the clubs they came from it was a no brainier.

The rest have been dross in my opinion...wasted salaries on Barbet,Ball,Wallace,Kelly who are cheaper but inferior to the players that have left.

Just because they were cheap is not a reason to bring them in if they are not fit for purpose.

At least it could be said Mullery and the rest didn’t ship goals for fun every week because like it or not that’s what we can expect this season.

Instead of renewing Cameron’s contract this year surely we could and should have looked at a better alternative.

its as clear as day that his legs have gone and will play only a small part in this seasons battle against relegation...this to me is another wasted salary.

.

And made captain no less. So will be under more pressure to pick him now.

I cant see where he makes that point Al?
His negativity, glee when we lose and disappearance when we do well makes me very cynical unfortunately.

I think he meant 73's response:

If you don’t think conceding 2+ goals per game under MW is relegation form then you need to wake up and smell the Coffee

In 56 games under MW including Cup ,pre-season and mid-season friendly matches we have conceded 101 goal in 56 games..so just under 2 per game.

So we probably need to score 2 goals per match to get a league point this season...how ridiculous is this comment ?

i know in MW's most recent intervirw with LFW he went on about the work they put in defensively on the training ground and remarked that it pisses him off when us fans assume the club doesn't properly prepare. clearly their defensive coaching just isn't good enough, regardless of what warbs says.

i don't doubt that he's a good coach who's good at developing players but he and the staff aren't good at the defensive aspect of coaching for sure.
barbet and dickie are championship quality CB's imo so should be doing better. i understand that we play an attacking fluid style of football and thats great but other teams do the same and are able to concede less.

we won't outscore opponents like last season when we had one of the best attacking lineups in the division as 3 of the 5 from that lineup have gone plus eze is simply irreplaceable so we need to adapt our style of play.
warbs needs to get it in gear, i do think he will as he's the best manager we've had since warnock.

we should be playing a 352 or 433 rather than a 4231 as it won't work out for us this season imo.
