ChezGiven 0 Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Anyone predicting 6 points from our next 2 home games is being a tad optimistic. 2 draws wouldnt surprise me at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shackbleep 0 Posted February 22, 2011 Author Share Posted February 22, 2011 Baffling to me when people say we've got a scoring problem. We're more goal-rich than we've been for many a season. This is true, but when I look over the strikers we have I'm not particularly confident in their ability to score. They've done a decent job admittedly so far, but they haven't been convincing. It could dry up, or they could be spurred on.... Shola coming back will help. I'll admit you can't compare it to 2008/09 where we struggled to create chances let alone score. Not just the strikers though. Carroll obviously scored a fair few and Best has done well in the last month or so but Barton and, in particular, Nolan have weighed in with the goals this season. We have a decent midfield this season which is the core reason for why we're not in a relegation battle. In 08/09 the midfield was absolutely fucking wank.

I've gone for 4 points but even that I think would be a great result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be a massive result as it could take us to 7th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest alex Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Think Bolton'll have a go as well, which will suit us and should make for a canny match. I think the Everton game, on the other hand, will be a dour affair unless we get an early goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
