kirkwood Posted 13 August 2008 Posted 13 August 2008 Don't shout it too loud but we have scored in every game so far, including friendly's of course. I know that this will come to an end sometime but from what I have seen, compared to last season, we are getting more men in the box when we attack. Long may this approach continue.

ASH17LCFC Posted 13 August 2008 Posted 13 August 2008 Including friendlies? Oh forgot about them, i don't think we're ever scored in pre season before.
kirkwood Posted 13 August 2008 Author Posted 13 August 2008 If you read the post correctly it did state including friendly's. I know it was a while ago when I left school but I make that 10 games.

thybluefox Posted 13 August 2008 Posted 13 August 2008 Lets just wait till Stockport on Saturday please. , he wasn't reaaaally talking about Stockport on Saturday....was he?
FilboFox Posted 13 August 2008 Posted 13 August 2008 Friendlies can't really count... they were lesser opposition for most of them and we've only played 2 games so far... and one was a dodgy 1-0 win with MANY missed chances... yes, it's great we are scoring in every game but they will have to take their chances... something which, by the sounds of it, they weren't doing against Stockport.
iancognito Posted 13 August 2008 Posted 13 August 2008 The big thing for me has been the creation of chances not the taking of them. Bit of width, bit of pace, bit of determination that's all it takes. We still need someone in the middle to thread a pass or make a late break from the midfield - in a year or two it'll be Andy King - but at the moment it's going alright.

This is my overall feeling about things atm Its going alright ..
Thracian Posted 13 August 2008 Posted 13 August 2008 Pearson's tactics might prove the biggest brake on City's scoring potential but personnel wise I see no reason we shouldn't be prolific scorers this season and perhaps even capable of scoring in every game given the right encouragement from fans and manager.

I don't see how Pearson has encouraged us to defend once we're ahead. We could have extended our lead last night with better finishing and I just thought MK Dons came into the game more on Saturday because they started to play better rather than our tactics

First 15 minutes we seemed to set up a border patrol on and backwards of the halfway line with only a handful of token sorties into enemy territory.

Yes I understand that, but afterwards we attacked and should have scored more goals. I am pleased we are winning when not playing brilliantly, as the season progresses we will play much better on a consistent basis, and win in real style.
Vardinhio Posted 14 August 2008 Posted 14 August 2008 Who'd be a football manager...moaning about Pearsons "negative tactics" when we've won 2 from 2. Support the team and enjoy it while it lasts.
