In the last 10 games only one of our entire midfield and strikeforce has managed to score. Bradshaw with a single goal at Fulham on 23 December. Absolutely pathetic.
That’s because the further up the pitch you go the harder it gets to get the quality you need from punts. Instead we’ve punted abart time and time again to get two (being generous) in Winnall and Bradshaw who can cut it at the level and have thrown numerous players away
I was coming onto the BBS to make a similar point. The two main first team coaches were defenders. Who works with the attacking players? Someone with a forward thinking nature obviously needs to.
Writing was on the wall in our first few matches. And that is why the McBurnie deal dropping through in the summer was an absolute disaster for the club. I might have mentioned it once or twice at the time. Proved right again. How can a Championship level club hope to survive with the strikers we had up to this January??? It's a joke. We deserve to be relegated on how the players contracts were dealt with last season. Now we can only hope that Hecky can get the strikers working together within the team in the short time he has left.
Don't forget the midfielders we've loaned out who are struggling to get games in lower leagues. Recruitment needs to be about quality not quantity.
