Didn’t people say Simms and Eccles had easy chances aswell? Didn’t show it on there?

Can't remember the Eccles one, the Simms header it was difficult to tell from the other end how easy it was

Think Bassette should have taken his chance after watching it several times.

The eccles one wasn't easy, he should have hit the target though.

Looked like his right arm was out and the ball hit it

Ball doesn’t reach his right arm

Watch it again at 25% speed on YouTube. From Torp's header, it flicks off the defender's head into Haji's groin and he instinctively moves his arm out of the way at the same time. Doesn't touch his arm.

It hits his leg, hand is nowhere near the ball

I’ve only seen one angle are other angles available

Agree it wasn't easy but it was a terrible attempt.

Is it 2 heavily deflected goals in 150 games for Eccles

Tough chance for Eccles but also very training ground type volley. Should be doing much better with it.

If anyone has NowTV there's a longer highlights package on there - 10 minutes and shows all the chances.

Ive looked on the full replay, there are two other angles. Ball definitely didn't hit right arm, the best angle obscures whether it hits left arm but the reverse angle suggests not.

Ah yes, great. Full replays of all games since Watford away are now available on ifollow...

- Relive the torture
- Count the xG of our missed chances
- Add up how much injury time there should have been
- and more!

Yes, for someone who generally is a clean striker of the ball, that's 2 similar chances he's had where the goalkeeper was out of position and wasted. I think the other game might have been Watford. On both occasions he seemed to snatch at his chance, but in each case he probably had time to control the ball before taking straight aim.

I am a big fan of Eccles but an area he really needs to improve on, is in providing more of a goal threat
