    There weren't that many clear cut. Sometimes it's about the quality of chances.

    Maybe I'm a cynic from what has happened in the past
    Bruce tried to bring in proper strikers but the Allam's wouldnt pay the wages

    I agree, I've said before it's the midfield that needed the most attention. However, we were light up front also, but we didn't really create enough good chances last season.

    Did we let Eaves go because we didnt create the chances for him?

    ONE of the problems was finishing, ONE of the problems was defending, ONE of the problems was not creating enough.
    And George contributed to that.

    Never higher in the league than 18th after match 3 despite having one of the most coveted young talents in the league.

    I genuinely don’t recall Allahyar getting anything other then his goal at Cardiff and the header at Hudds. A creative midfielders dream is a player with pace like Allahyar.

    Fulham pushed the boat out with a striker and it paid off

    It’s always an issue when your top scorer is your winger IMO and no one is close. Much easier to mark a winger out the game than a striker. Seen it a lot over the last 4 seasons. KLP marked out the game? Lose/draw. Same with Bowen, albeit not as frequent as they also had Grosicki to worry about. A winger can have 2 players on them without any worries really whereas putting 2 on a striker makes huge gaps so no one would ever do it.

    Huddz showed in his 15 mins cameo what we were sorely missing. Someone who can actually make telling passes.

    The problem with most 50 yard passes is that by the time the ball reaches the attacker the defence has time to prepare

    Think that was because he's not really done much in the champ over 2 seasons. It was a lottery where the ball would go everytime he touched it.

    We would have kept him if he'd wanted to stay as a squad player though.

    And his attitude was unquestionable.

    Wonder where he will end up this season?

    Good move. Cant see him coping with the physical demands of the EFL.

    Evidently no other EFL club can either.

    The problem is that TH can make these without looking or thinking.
    Other players see this in training then try it on the pitch.
    They need 2 touches to get the ball under control then head up to spot the man.
    Then as you say the defender is stood there waiting to receive the ball ….or it hits the supporters in row D

    He wasn't our best player. One of them, but behind KLP and Greaves for me.
