No shots on target tonight.
Our plan was to boss them first 20 minutes, which we did. After that, too negative.
No shots on target.
Disappointing.

We all pointed this out in the summer we needed more attacking options.

But tonight is another issue. We played so poorly we couldn’t pass it to our own team and crumbled under pressure under the lights. We will be back stronger.
 
Given we have more aerial threat, I do wonder why we don’t exploit this more efficiently.

Corners for instance.

Harry, Anel and Kieffer are all excellent in this area. Vini no slouch. McCallum when on the pitch same.

Why do ALL of them take up positions within the 6 yard box at the point the corner is delivered ?

I guess it must be down to instruction and that the instruction given is to be “disrupter’s” in the 6 yard box in the hope the 2nd ball falls kindly to one of our lads to prod home.

If this is the case, it’s not working.

It’s high time at least one and preferably more of our stronger aerial threats started on the 18 yard line and ran in to meet and attack the ball.

you could have posted this thread the day after the window shut we needed at least 1 maybe 2 strikers to come in then and nothing has changed weve got two thirds of a top 2 team apart from the final 3rd and if we dont do something about it in january i very much doubt we even make top 6

correct ,it is the defence that has got us in the top 6 ,certainly not our goal scoring strikers 🤣
 
we havent got one 20 goal striker in our squad for me that rules us out of top 2 unless we bring one or two in this january if we dont then were not gonna make top 6 imo surely chris can see this
 
I'd agree if Leeds and Burnley had someone banging them in.

Hamer has the same as Brownhill (Burnley top scorer) and Piroe is only on 4.

We do need to add goals, absolutely, but I don't think it will stop us getting top 6.

Kieffer Moore joined Ipswich at the end of January and scored 7 goals in 14 starts (+4 sub apps). A goal every 2.5 games.

He has 1 in 10 for us. I'm not sure the formation suits him

There’s no one close enough to him. We need Brewster in number 10, or someone else capable of running beyond. I’m not sure COH is that man.

Agreed.
I would like Brewster to get a run at the minute

With Vini out tonight. I'd like to see this:

Cooper
Gilchrist - Souttar - Anel - Burrows
Hamer - Arblaster
RakSakyi - Brewster - O'Hare
Moore
​
Maybe Brooks instead of O'Hare then swap JRS and Brooks onto opposite wings

We haven't got a 20 goal squad. We need to start pushing the youngsters or were gunna be losing more than we win, cos Moore couldn't score in a brothel, and Campbell looks very very average at best!
I'd like Brewster to keep playing, got a feeling that if he bags 1 or 2, then there could definitely be more!

Championship Goals

In answer to the question and without going into some tactical masterclass....getting the ball and players into the opposition box might help .
I realise that the heat is on the forwards but the service has been poor . Toiling up front with little to work off must be a thankless task for any striker.
 
We have two wingers who when played are usually on their wrong foot, subsequently cut inside as opposed to create width to get the ball into the box.
Moore has not been good but he thrives on balls into the box, especially ones he can attack at the back post and he has had nothing like that to work from.
We have for the first time for ages got some quite sizeable guys who should be creating havoc from corners by running onto the ball, instead Wilder has them all holding hands in the six yard box.
I am not a football coach by any stretch of the imagination but the two things mentioned should at least be tried!
