It’s just lazy, don’t score enough goals, CFs must be rubbish and we never replaced mitro, but any sort of analysis shows it’s a lack of goals from midfield and set pieces which is our Achilles heel, nothing to do with our CFs, I actually think both have done really well, lived off scraps at times given our not so creative midfield. -- SW6.doc

100% agree. Beyond general midfield and free-kicks there's also shots from outside the area. Harry Wilson scores those. Who else though? Robinson and Andreas get themselves in a remarkably large number of decent shooting positions in that regard and rarely even hit the target. Robinson, for instance, has had 42 shots the last three seasons, zero goals. Andreas 148, 9 goals. Meanwhile Berge and Lukic don't even try. They've had 17 shots between them this season (Tete's had 22!). (NT) -- eganonoa, Tuesday, April 29, 07:48:58pm (pool-108-18-149-21.washdc.fios.verizon.net/108.18.149.21)
- Sums up why it needs to be Berge OR Lukic if we are to progress. 504 career appearances between them, and just 33 goals. Won't be changing their habits now. (Sander scored excellently for Burnley at CC, but that was his sole goal that season!) (NT) -- b+w g., Tuesday, April 29, 09:35:22pm (68.52.159.143.dyn.plus.net/143.159.52.68)

  - I disagree in that goals do not have to be scored evenly through the team . There are FAR more goal to be had from Muniz if he can only commit to the club and try his best every game . He is only 23 . Plenty of time to play for other clubs ( bigger than Spurs in the future . Levy has spent £65 and £60m on forwards in the last 2 years . But he knows Muniz is better than both his bargain buys . Chelsea too knows the quality he has so (NT) -- alanos, Tuesday, April 29, 10:26:55pm (82-132-213-13.dab.02.net/82.132.213.13)
  - Completely agree. I don't see them together as our best combination. I like the balance of one of them with ESR (safe passer, carries well, runs in box and scores) with a creator like Andreas. If we're to push the boat out over the summer its an upgrade over Andreas I'd be looking for. (NT) -- eganonoa, Tuesday, April 29, 10:43:10pm (NoHost/172.58.240.239)
