Did he even touch the ball before his injury time disallowed effort?
If he had only one touch and it resulted in a goal that would have been a plus.

As a non " technical " football fan, I would just say I think we have the potential to score goals from many players. Just need to stop some going in the other end. How we do that I will leave to someone more knowledgable who is no doubt we'll paid to provide the answers. UTC.

I don’t think that’s true. There’s two teams that have scored one more goal than us and that is it.

Defence and keeping clean sheets is definitely our biggest issue
Goals scored is highly improved by the Blackpool and Wigan games. If we had two in every game we could be in a better position.

Our biggest issue this season is keeping a clean sheet.

It’s got to be Kompanys number one priority. If it’s not resolved we will have a mediocre season
Probably equal to that has to be a greater urgency to score more than one goal when we are in front
