...Walsall are so goal-shy, shot-conservative,
So how does that stack up with today's FACTS in that Walsall had almost TWICE as many shots as Gillingham, and MORE on target than Gillingham?
Start being a real supporter, and not a doom-and-gloom know-it-all. Better still, don't bother posting at all.
They need to take more shots to have a chance of scoring more goals. They need to shoot earlier. And they need to create the chances earlier by delivering the passes earlier.
These 3 simple changes would give them 2 or 3 goals more a game, even without a new striker.
I am saying they don't score enough because they don't shhot enough and don't efficiently attack as a team enough. Everyone knows now they stop when they get to last third and get confused about what to do next.
If they had 15 shots each half rather than for the whole match they would have probably won.
If I was the manager or sports psychologist for the team, I would tell the strikers to try and score 10 every match with BELIEF, POSITIVITY & DETERMINATION.
It would yield results.
I have considered approaching the team to give the players a free sports psychology session. I am convinced I could get them scoring a lot more goals (and if worked, which I'm pretty sure it would...they should pay me a few quid) But it would need support from coaching staff to drive the play towards continuous chance creation (which means directness and supportive movement).
About doom and gloom...I don't like it when they do the same wthings wrong, over and over again.
I am positive and congratulatory about every single good pass, run, tackle or effort a player makes. And I never shout abuse at the players or manager....as I don't believe negative comments at them helps.
But this is a forum where we should be able to express ourselves about how we feel and think.
