Top black line is max pts
Green line is cumulative points
Purple line is the total points for the last 6 games (starts at wk 6, obvs)
Blue line is overall ppg (hard to see on this scale)
I arbitrarily chose last 6 games as a block to show an extended period of form.
We maintained 15 pts per last 6 games for a period from gw 6 to gw 15 (and a perfect 18 from gw 11 to 14). We then maintained 16 pts per last 6 games gw 22 to gw 27. From gw 16 to 20 it went from 12 to 10 ppl6 (points per last 6). That's easily our worst period, although we have been on 13 ppl6 or lower since gw 27 now.
What does this show? Dunno really. I suppose it does show we're on a run similar to December (I think) with the Leeds and Middlesbrough losses. We're not in quite as bad a dip of form as then (when we hit 10 ppl6) but we'd have to lose the next 2 to dip below the 10 ppl6 marker.
Yunus knows he's too slow to break, so he stops and cuts back every time. I don't think this is going to work down the right.
(*hopes to be proved wrong...)
We need to move quicker in transition. We're giving them too much time to regroup by being too sluggish in attack. We end up with 11 men behind the ball by the time we get to their box.
We do seem to struggle against a back 5. There's less space to play the balls through, I guess, and that makes it hard for us to pass the ball to death. Good job we're good at heading in crosses! Oh, wait...
