Grosicki takes about the most productive corner I have seen from him - in a WBA shirt.

Just scored from it
His first assist

Did the ref just shove a substituted player off the pitch at the corner?!?! Well done ref
Should happen more often

So was that what he was trying to do all the time he was with us ? None of our players ever got to the ball at the front post like that

 

[John Ex Aberdeen now E.R.]

And that's where I think the formation isn't quite working; he's playing as a lone target man and has done pretty much the entire season, so the amount of ground he has to cover is immense, especially given that our wingers don't tuck in and leave him horribly isolated. He'd perform much better as part of a front two I reckon, or as the central figure in a front three (which, admittedly, we tried earlier in the season and failed with).

I agree Eaves is just not getting the type of service that suits his game, McCann needs to change to 2 up top to get the best out of Eaves or play wingers that get to the byline and cross. I'm not sure that he will change though.

When he first came he was making runs naturally like a forward who was expecting crosses or passes in behind for him to run onto.
After a while he realised that wasn’t going to happen as Bowen and Grosicki would always cut it instead, so just stopped making them (or was told to stop)
I’d like to see him with KLP as a front two, but either way it’ll take him a while to start naturally making those runs again if that is now the plan

Ok, own up, who was the plonker on RH phone in, “Porter,” [HASHTAG]#hadonetoomany[/HASHTAG]. Anyone on here? He did say he watched the team training, perhaps BlackAndAmberGambler over his fence?!

Anyway, a point today, and stopped the rot, losing streak, a point more than I thought we’d get, add to that Leeds losing so not bad at all.

Re training, If what McCann said was right and another player, Kane, turned their ankle in training yesterday, Scott earlier in the week, you have to question what the heck is going on at training, coupled with the mystery of Burke and Taff.

At least we are in the form table for something, according to Sky, we’re in the top 5 Champ teams for goals scored in the 2nd half of games.

It wasn't me Tigress...honest.
