The above shows we are doing better in most stats. Most of them are meaningless though.

What does mean something is the following;

Goals 25-17
xG: 18.2-27.6
Conversion rate (on-target): 42%-29%

What the above shows is that we are actually creating much better chances this season. But unable to put them away.

If we continue playing the football we are doing but Bamford starts to put them away or Eddie steps in and we can keep creating then we will be just fine.

Hopefully all it takes is one for Bamford to lift the pressure and the floodgates will open.

The xG stat is very useful though and shows that we are actually creating better opportunities to score this season. The goals aren't there at the moment but they will come if we can creating the chances and keep up with the current rate of xG.

Izzy Brown currently back to his best for Luton, only us could sign a player with his ability and see non of it would have been unstoppable at his best in our side.

Wetherby you can blame that idiot that is Radz. Sanctioning the season long loan of a player fresh off a knee ligament Injury. Would rather him in this team to Harrison.

This season we are playing the best build up football, but once in that final 3rd, we are conference standard. Also, ppl talk about Pablo etc, that we need him, the guy as a top tier athlete is becoming shot. If CR7 can admit feeling the pace, I'm sure Pablo is and Imo should have been the one we got a replacement in the Summer for.

Statistics aside, Bamford has missed some absolute sitters, and he has missed them at crucial times when a little more composure would have got us the goals. He is paid a fortune to do one thing, and he spends most of his working hours training and refining and honing those skills. Yes, there is a lot of pressure on him to perform, but most of us experience pressure in our lives in different ways. He needs to grow a pair and do what he is paid to do. If I was him, I would write a letter of apology to the Club for pretending to be a centre-forward and donate his salary to Billy's Bar, for the medication of our long suffering supporters. That's what I call taking responsibility.

Never look at stats, let my eyes do the looking.

This time last year, was certain we,d go up.

This time, not certain we’ll get in play offs.

Feel very different this year

But you were wrong last year

Maybe wrong this year too?
