That was last nights count against Derby.

It's something that I've noticed for a while now even going back to last season. You always seem to have many shots off target on the stats, sometimes the number goes into the twenties.

Is shooting practice needed or is it certain players being ball greedy?

The chances seem to be there to win games.

Allardyce would lick their faces as punishment.

I don't think it's an issue. It shows there are shots being taken - I'd be more worried if there were no shots at all. Forest had 15 off target for 2 goals.

Yeah, but all those shots are down to 1 player Copper and you know who that player is don't you!

Nearly all long-distance hopeful shots because we aren't getting through or behind defences, sadly.

Two words I heard used a lot in the same sentence coming away from the ground were "Eagles" and "greedy". In fairness to him, I'd say when he gets the ball on the edge of the penalty area, the chances of us scoring are better if he shoots than if he passes.

I like Eagles because when he gets into those positions, there's a good chance he'll cause problems. Lee can dance around defenders till the cows come home but he isn't a threat. His crossing is dire and his shot is non-existent.

All I can say is that at least it's a good start compared to the Leeds game tbh.

I feel that last nights changes were much better than when we played the last games.

Don't think anyones pleased with the start to the season, but at least last night was an improvement.

Eagles is just getting back to full match fitness. He will rip the seagulls apart on Saturday.

Can't be doing with these people who criticise Eagles. He's just about the only genuinely creative player we have at the moment and the only player who possesses a real goal threat.

Everything gets criticised when we aren't winning and it becomes a melee of personal dislikes more than a fair analysis of what's good and what's bad on the day.
These guys get paid enough so they have to accept criticism with no recourse to a way of responding - rightly or wrongly.
