Crazy we brought in 3 strikers but I still think we need 2 strikers. I'd loan out Burstow in Jan and end the Bedia loan to bring two new ones in.
Was it our last chance of the half Palmer gets through makes the space but rather than shoot he passes to Belloumi who marked. The go down the field once and we need panda to keep us in it.
Weve had many good periods in matches But that doesnt win you games Lets have a good 2nd half for once
Final ball and finishing issues does go beyond just the striker. But having an ace up there would make a massive difference imo.
Given who the chances have fallen to not sure having a decent striker is the complete answer, sure it would help but fk me they're all as bad as each other when it comes to putting it in the onion bag

Good half that. Though I said the same at the weekend at half time too and that panned out poorly not long after. We NEED to take our chances and keep them out. As a couple have said tonight, and rightly so, it can't possibly be the manager's fault if players are making those sorts of mistakes in attack. We should be ahead now, fairly comfortably too.
Oxford so poor that half.....we played some nice football at times ....but 0-0. Think Giles has been ok, bar one switch off. Pedro totally anonymous. But our problems with scoring are much more than whoever happens to be playing CF. Hoping it's not a repeat of Saturday.
They need to try and address it when the window opens, Bedia looks worse than Eaves as others have said. Pedro could still be class but he's 33 and the kid they brought in has been no use at all.
