Counter argument says that there were too many hit and hope to Ulloa last season and our attacks were not very sophisticated. We relied too much on one player and this meant we were low scorers last season. PS: I think our recruitment policy was short of the mark. McCourt and Hughes were good...

Accurate Crossing Stats back this up. Not enough crosses and not enough good ones. Crosses. We are middle of the table for corners, accurate and numbers from open play. This not everything. Derby have had less success than us at crosses and they are doing OK (could get better). Corners We...

All the creative players are liable to get dispossessed as they try to find a way through the opposition. Forwards will tend to lose control more than other players (under pressure from defenders?) and get dispossessed as well. Trying to find the best Championship player for this and Paddy...

There seems to be a missing ingredient. Technically we seem to be better, but the character of players counts for something. We do not have to have the winners! The wing-back system was very worrying to me as I have never thought it would work. However, the fans asked for more attacking...

Most of the stats are positive. It does say that O'Grady gets to more balls per game in the penalty box than Baldock. However, there was no accounting for the standard and type of opposition (as he only played against the "weaker" teams). Team stats are more interesting. I would have our...

Missing from inside the Box Our best player for getting a shot away in the penalty area is Chris O'Grady (stats). My sus said it should be Lewis Dunk ??? (to double check later) Shots from within the penalty area (recent ones remembered) Not that I remember them. Off hand I think of...

Baldock had a chance that I don't think Murray would have converted. That's all I remember. Murray might have done better against Wigan with the two Lualua crosses. We did not create much against Blackburn. Stats say that the rest of the Norwich players are doing well, especially Redmond and...

Passing the ball around without hurting the opposition 2012-13 the biggest points winners were Buckley 11 and Barnes 9. Macca and Ulloa (half season each) 6 each. It could be argued that we have lost all our game winners. I have not got the figures for the misses of both Barnes and Macca that...

Ulloa = 10 pts 15th which is about where he should be on our performances. I wonder how many Ulloa goals actually won us points last season? Without Ulloa's goals we would have 10 less points. Without Crofts it would be 7 less points, Lopez 4 Buckley 3. Dale Stephens and Stephen Ward got us...

Stats are a reality check: 2nd place shots per game behind Blackburn 5th place possession comparable with Norwich 3rd place, passing success behind Derby and Bournemouth 1st place, interceptions, well above any other club 2nd place, dribbles per game behind Norwich...
