Hi Ben
To win matches you need to have possession and score goals
There you go!

Coventry had 37% Fri against QPR and won 3 - 2. Very possession based team last season.

You need possession in the right areas first.
And someone to get the ball in the net. Sometimes these are collectively known as strikers, but anyone can do that and score, including the goalkeeper.
Sometimes we play with more goalkeepers than strikers.
This makes it so confusing how we end up with Bristol Rovers 0 ?

4-4-2 anyone?

"At one point he exclaimed to his team from the touchline to “take the f****** handbrake off”"
Haha! BG on touchline v Ipswich.
I would suggest, that from being 4th in the league the downhill movement handbrake is well and truly off!

Part of me believes he is trying to coach skills, albeit the right ones, that our players are incapable of doing. One recurring thing from the Ipswich game was throw ins, the ball was thrown at quite a speed at a Rovers player and he was quite often unable to control the ball first time. BG is trying to get the ball back in and the game starting quickly while he opposition players were slightly off balance, but it did not work (to me).

We have signed Luke Mc Cormick on loan from Chelsea? Anyone know anything about him?Only 21 and was at loan at Shrewsbury last season but only played for five matches.Would love an Old Head too as our very lightweight youngsters don't seem to have much strength on the ball.
