Our away scoring record, 42, is 6 higher than the next highest in League One, Derby's 36. And yet, some people complain that Collins is a defensive-minded manager. Here's hoping I haven't jinxed us into not scoring today.
Well it’s interesting - The general consensus is we play negative football, which admittedly it is for a lot of the time. However, we’ve scored the 3rd most goals in the league - more than the top two, which would suggest otherwise. We’ve scored easily enough to be promoted, as we all know our issues have been at the other end of the pitch.
The reason I’ve been so frustrated is because I feel Collins has the handbrake on. We have ridiculous attacking talent (by this seasons league one standards) yet we don’t seem to play to our strengths. A lot of the goals are individual bits of quality from Kane, Phillips, McAtee etc. Rather than a plan coming together, so to speak.
Certainly. If we'd had the back three we had at Wembley there's a good chance we'd be in the top two now.
