until I realized how he was picking up the slack left by the midfield and Johnson misadventures. I still think 4th is ours.

Ok we are playing well (in parts) and creating chances but we have spent over 100 million and we still cant beat fcuking wigan.

Pretty shameful tbh

We need a good striker or another good attacker. Simples.

I think the players we already possess could be more clinical

Yeah, but scoring goals is kind of required for that scenario ....
[/quote]

Scoring multitudes of goals isn't. You only need to score one goal to win a game.

Granted, we'd all love to be scoring lots of goals, and I do think we could do with a player who can put lot more chances away, but we're heading up the table rather than down, so I'm relatively happy.

 

[Asbo]

Stoke Spurs Fulham Swansea and Wigan, are the five games we have failed to score in a goal in each would have gained us 5 points and we'd be sitting in 3rd feeling a lot happier, but i concur I too am in general happy with the way the season is panning out, mainly due to our pass and move and creating so many chances.

 

[Gerry_A_Trick]

I think you're missing my point.

Obviously it'd be great if we won more matches and scored more goals. Hardly rocket science.

No I know what you are saying, doing an Arsenal would be enough for you, just the 1 goal and the points for a CL place, but I'm trying to say we need a main goalscorer to work with Suarez and help us achieve it...

I guess easier = better to me 😉

Yep, agreed.

I'm just saying it's not as vital to the season as some are saying, nor does it mean we're shite if we don't score bucket loads of goals.

 

[KopKing]

All we had to do was score the penalty.
