I wonder if - if the stats say what folk say they are, and teams have worked out how to nullify our attacks, and we’ve switched to more long range shots rather than working the ball in to the box … well that might be a bigger cause for Ollie not scoring so much and in fact any striker we play in the centre forward role might struggle to be prolific.

Just a thought, might be miles off of course.


I think there is a lot to this, as well as having no functioning wingers.

But in the last three league games we've scored 9 goals. Only the Rogers winner against West Ham was from outside the box.

Everything we do, however we do it, is apparently unsustainable !!!

Fuck everyone, we will just continue on our march to greatness.

Just like the season we finished 4th we just kept catching top teams on an off day seemed to be the narrative.

So of the 8 goals we've scored inside the box in that run Watkins scored 2, was instrumental in the OG for a 3rd and wasn't on the pitch for 2 more.

We must sign/loan a striker or improve the service to Watkins.
Depends on what you think the problem is.
Every where else can wait until the summer.

We need another option at RB, as we do at LB. Hopefully, Garcia can come back and kick-on, I really liked him before his injury.

All I want for Christmas is a winger/striker like Rashy. So I'm slightly more demanding than Mariah.

Footy insider, so 99.9% sure it’ll be bollocks.

Left back? Probably about the last position we need.

I don’t think Wolves have anyone left worth taking. They’ve been completely stripped of anything any good over the last few years. Hence 2 points all season.
