What I thought I would do is compare the stats against Reading today with the stats from February.
We lined up last Feb 4-4-2 winning 4-1 with goals from Eky, Gary, Lavery & Josh.

Interesting Top 3. Grimmy was excellent but surely Marv should be in there. Would have been interesting to see Patino's score had he stayed on the pitch.

Comment:
We nearly always (even under Quitch) play down the left and whoever is at LB generally has the most touches.
Strange when our most dangerous player plays on the right.

13 shots and 1 on target says a lot about our failings at the moment.
 
13 shots and 1 on target says a lot about our failings at the moment.
And the only one that was on target was a feeble effort from Yates which presumably was the one big chance where he should have done much better.The only other chance of any significance was Madine`s bungled header from a corner in the first half.

It seems to me Yates hardly ever scores from outside the 6 yard(metre?) box except from pens and he missed the only one he had of those this season too. Add to that the front players Lavery and Madine, neither of whom are proficient finishers, and despite a couple of freak 3-3 draws its no wonder we struggle up front and unless new strikers ,who CAN actually strike, are drafted in it`s almost inevitable that we will continue to do so especially as we lack creative midfielders.
 
I thought we had two decent chances at the end with the Williams and Dougall headers. Don't know if headers count as shots (they probably do) but neither were on target.

Yes on reflection you are absolutely right .Those late headers were clear cut chances and why they weren`t also identified as big chances ,making 3 in all is beyond me.

What do they say..... there are lies ,damned lies and statistics.

Interesting Top 4 - thought Grimmy was deservedly MOTM, was delighted Dougall played as well as he did. I wonder what Yates got for his shift considering how long Lavery was on!!

Not sure of the overall stats since Madine has been at the club but is it right that we win more games when he is playing than when he is out of the side....?
 
I think you need to direct that question to @td53
Yes. We win more. We score more.

We averaged about .7 points per game more with Madine in the side last year if I remember correctly.

I don't just do Gary Goals shit for the mad lols. There is a rationale behind it and he is *actually* a good footballer.

Really sorry but got that stat the wrong way round. Just looked now (the figures do tend to get up-dated anyway) and it is now 4 big chances for Rotherham and zero for us.
I was trying to wrack my brains for 3 big ones, could only think of a couple first couple of minutes

Two shots on target sadly speaks volume for both the game and the season.
I remember in the Premier League (where remember we got relegated) it would be a rare thing for us to have less than 10 shots on target.
 
I honestly thought that Millwall team yesterday was the worst team I’ve seen since we got back in the Championship, with the right formation and attitude we would of mullered them. Formation and attitude is a big part of the Managers job. The body language of the players has gone rapidly downhill since Critch left.

80 mins on pitch.
He is strong, runs at defenders, unlucky with shot that hit the post.
Could well convert to a striker
