Points ?

[Thorney]

Been thinking about how many points we may need to go up

If we assume all three of us are not going to win all of our remaining games so use the scenario of

Leeds 3 wins/1 draw would put them on 97

Ipswich 3 wins/1 draw would put them on 98

That means even with our erratic form, we could get
3 wins,1 draw/1 loss to put us on 98 points and above Ipswich on GD

A win tonight is a must !

Don’t over think it, it’ll do your head in.

Trouble is everyone has got us sussed out. Just like when we won the league they accept that they will not see much of the ball but that if they get in our box panic will ensue and they will have a good chance of scoring, especially if they come in at an angle. In the PL season we played a lot like that and the only teams to beat us were Liverpool (lucky at Anfield) and Arsenal (lucky at Emirates). They piled in whilst many of the other teams kept to their tippy tappy thinking they could break us down. Huth's goal at Spurs was a case in point and they didn't know how to respond.
Now teams are doing exactly that to us and because we refuse to go all in an are rubbish in front of goal we are not getting the results.
As Daggers says it will drive you mad. Unless Enzo changes the system I can't see where the results are coming from. Frustrating thing is we probably do have the players to do it!

If the run of under-performing games had happened earlier in the season, then you could've seen a change.

But this late in the season, it would have to be something that the players could adapt to quickly, & even then, not radically different to now. The number of games seems to be a factor, given both Leeds & Ipswich have tripped up recently too (thankfully).

We'll see tonight...

The only change required is to move with pace...

Novel idea 6thie but it ain't in Enzo's coaching manual.
I think it is called an oxymoron in his book.

Worked OK-ish against Norwich a mere two games ago.

And put the ball in the net!!

 

[bnet]

don't pick Daka, thats as far as l'm prepared to think about it, all 3 clubs are crap, so owt could happen.

 

[Gnasher65]

96 will get us auto, anything less might get us auto but no guarantee.

 

[Brauny]

Put a proper shift and we'll be alright.
Anything less then there's another stinker in the offing .
Time to roll the sleeves up because you can't guarantee Leeds and Ipswich will let us off the hook again.

 

[Wearthefoxhat]

As everyone has stated we need to go for it instead of waiting to be given it, aggressive instead of passive, pace instead of pedestrian and yeah no Daka

 

[Lozfox1978]

Enzo loves Daka so he’ll play
