Tbf to Wright, while people are busy picking him apart for this miss (not you just in general) how many of our players make a run like that to get into that position in the first place?

To be fair he was gash in his first season, was the Prem tho in a Norwich team destined for relegation (bigish fee too I think) he was poor based on that. I dare say two seasons at this level has improved him no end, think he’d do a job at the top level now given the chance.Funnily enough he was getting slaughtered by their fans (and from further afield) after he first joined them as well
Huckerby is absolutely berating Simms on social media
Appreciate what he did as a player for us but the ensuing pile on he has encouraged has helped nobody and is ever so slightly classless in my opinion - you made your point mate leave it be now
Absolutely, he did great to make the chance. But he has to bury it really.
This is just nonsenseI have yet to see any of our lads get angry. Can we get Doyle in for a week as a lifestyle coach ?
This. We don't create many good chances for our central striker. Unless they create their own chances they might get 1 half chance a game of one from a defensive/keeper error.Yes, it was a chance he should’ve buried. Two things:
1) We need to be creating more chances
2) Our defence needs to tighten up - we’re leaking goals atm
There were games last season where Gyokeres would miss two or three 1-on-1s but then score a goal. Reading and Birmingham towards the end of the season he must’ve missed 5-7 clear cut chances and we ended up winning both games. Simms and Wright haven’t had games like that, they’ve had 1 or 2 (if we’re lucky) big chances in a game.
He could probably be moved on at a loss but I'd rather we got it out of him.Haji wright was playing really well prior to his injury.
simms is the one from me, in my opinion the only signing you can say has been a genuinely poor one so far. He’s gonna be on a fair bob and needs to start scoring goals, it’s simple as
Don’t think that’ll happen mate. Second season is the one where he really has to start doing it.He could probably be moved on at a loss but I'd rather we got it out of him.

The main trouble with Simms and Wright is that although they clearly care, we rarely see any real aggression or determination around the box and they more often than not lose any one to one battles when it matters.
Can MR change them to win those one to ones? Can he get them to be determined to make an impact - even if only as a sub coming on after 60 mins against tiring weak Championship sides??
I don’t think Robins thought he would be playing the current formation at the start of the season and that’s impacted the way we’ve recruited our strikers.
Although Palmer’s was straight at the keeper, I still think Gunn reacted very well. Wright I’m very disappointed with.

It wasn’t very subtle. Need our players to be sticking up for Saka in those situationsRobins asking if Wagners tactic was to kick the shit out of Tats, of course it was. Wagner wanted them to keep Tats and Cal calmed down, the dirty fuckers should have been down to 10 before we were.
I hate these cunts.
A club icon slaughtering one our players helps no one - Say he was poor, yes - But 4 or 5 tweets digging him out is needlessI think that's a bit of an exaggeration.
I just had a look and all he's really said was that he expected more and he was a bit dissapointed with Simms. He also said he had big shoes to fill, but that Palmer looked more lively when he came on. It's hard to argue with most of that.
He scored a tap in last week and he had an army of people (who have since disappeared again) trying to exaggerate both his contribution and the comments that have been said against him.
He's just not been very good. Whilst I agree the system probably hasn't been overly helpful, he's so far been a dissapointing signing. The striker position at the moment is a weak spot for us. Not to say that won't change.
Godden's goals drying up is telling. He is a player who has always had a strong conversion rate so when he's not scoring, it's generally because he's had a low volume of chances.
Do you think the crossing and passing in the box has been good enough? Even Gyokeres scored 1 (maybe 2?) headers - we never have been a team creating chances like that.
Godden is a player who’s movement in the box is good yet he hasn’t scored in 12 league games, why?
A little insight as to why this is a problem is in the lack of assists for our midfielders and fullbacks:
- COH - 1 assist
- Sakamoto, 2
- Sheaf, 2
- Eccles, 4 (set piece taker)
- Allen, 3
- MVE, 2
- Bidwell, 1
- Palmer, 2
Our top assister is Hadji Wright and Ellis Simms has 2 assists. Which to me, is a problem because our creative players aren’t putting chances on a plate for Wright, Simms or Godden.
So did palmer
Wright's chance was far easier than Palmer's
Yeah but a better striker

Top one. Keeper had it covered and he’d have shot wide if he’d placed it further right IMO.Two really poor finishes from great positions, both far too close to the keeper. I'd put money on O'Hare and Sakamoto scoring the there.

Angry with the opposition
Angry with his team mates
Angry with the ref
Angry with himself
Show you care, show the level of frustration and aggression Vic showed.

Score goals, it doesn’t matter what contribution he makes as long as he does that.I think that's a bit of an exaggeration.

Because he ultimately delivered nothingAmazing people criticising Palmer. He was very lively when he came on and their keeper made a good save from him. He did far more in his short period on the pitch than many players who started. I would say he was one of the top performers yesterday and I hope he starts in Tuesday.
It is really quite ridiculous how much he is picked on by certain elements.
He probably had time to take a touch to the side and have a look at the shot, he snatched at it insteadTop one. Keeper had it covered and he’d have shot wide if he’d placed it further right IMO.
So did other players who are not getting it as much has him.Because he ultimately delivered nothing
