Pointless looking for someone to blame because for me its a collective failure in front of goal.

no shots from outside the box from Klich and no goals from Klich
No goals from Pablo or any creation from Pablo and our best player last season out injured again.
Harrison creates chances but he misses loads of chances and 1 goal from him is poor return.
Costa should have had a few goals but fluffed his lines and besides to the 2 squared balls he supplied for Eddie we have seen nothing yet.
Forshaw missed plenty of chances but has now been out weeks
No goals from a CB as yet
Only 2 from Alioski is also poor return for the chances hes had

You need to think this one through a bit more Chesh.

A chance is a goal-scoring opportunity, which means that someone must be in a goal-scoring position, with the ball in close proximity. Presumably by this very definition, the player with the chance is in an attacking position. (Most unusual to have an effort from a defensive position). So that says very clearly to me that we have sufficient players in attack mode, with loads of opportunity. We really aren't lacking in players in forward positions.

Where we are lacking, and it's universally acknowledged, is that we're simply not converting these chances. Having more players in attack is not going to cure this particular problem. Utilising a different player or players might help, but if it was that easy ...
Not sure about that WJ lots of shots from outside the area is always going to be hit and miss, IMO we are so outnumbered up front most of the time players snatch at their shots, when Eddie got his free kick which ultimately led to our goal on Tuesday there was him and 5 defenders running back.

I appreciate we've all opinions, but how many of us have coached, never mind at the level that Bielsa has. But saying that I'm getting as frustrated as the rest of you regarding Bamfords continuous inclusion in the team. If Bielsa starts getting abuse from certain quarters though he may then just feck off, its not like he needs the money. Then we may have something really to moan about. <ok>
To play nice football but not go up isn't that much better than mid table. Sure he has improved the players but still not sure his stubernes didn't lose us promotion last season, dropping Jannson in the play offs lost us that, and think we may have got auto if he had played Brown, as he is doing well for Luton.

Its all ifs and buts Chesh.<ok>

Wonder how Steve Gibson's getting on with his private prosecution of Monk? Last I heard was that Radz had provided some evidence which backs up Gibson's claim and is pretty damning

Are Wednesday still looking at a points deduction this year due to FFP rules?

Where did you get your stats from? I could have sworn that Pablo & Klich had scored a couple each.
