Maybe we get the strikers who score goals for fun then play them out of position and not to their strengths. Funny how all players are great when they to come us but play like they're conference standered. It couldn't possibly down to the management, oh no, never!, it's the players as they are shit and don't understand our boring, dull system.
Our system is dire and the service the strikers get is appalling...We take to many touches and rarely play through the middle because our midfield is also dire with zero creativity.

I'd rather go 4-4-2 and look to focus on scoring rather than tippy tappy football with zero end product:)

Totally agree. Not to sure what style Einstein is trying to implement on the players but the players it seems can't comprehend what 2+2 is.

In the world of The Amex, if we'd signed Lionel Messi and he didn't get a hatrick on his debut, he'd be slated and would receive abuse for being shit

We are the club that sign good strikers and destroy them within 3 games :lolol:

There are of course exceptions such as Ulloa whom it's obvious how to play to his strengths :thumbsup:

Comparing what he does at Sheff Utd and what he did here is like comparing apples and sausages. He's a terrible player at Championship level. Hope he stays up there.

How many of those were meaningful goals that won games or secured a draw as opposed to consultation goals when the game was already lost. Not someone who us going to score 20 for a tactical and technical driven championship team.

Why didn't you find out before posting, instead of expecting someone else to come up with the answer.

Maybe they have a winger, who plays on the wing (unlike SH moving deadly KLL inside) and wait for it, CROSSES the ball...?

He scored well for Barnsley in the Championship ... good enough for us but never given a decent run, played out of position and no runners to support him

The "snobs" won't agree "Came from a relegated club and only cost £500K"

Never stood a chance here

Could you expand upon the played out of position bit

It's because the club for some bizarre reason think tippy tappy foreign bullshit football is the way forward.

The bizarre reason that when we played possesion football we walked league one and then finished 10th, 4th and 6th.

Now that we don't we are 3rd from bottom. Give me the bullshit boring tippy tappy Poyet and Garcia over this confused rubbish any day.

Clough, who has failed in an attempt to sign John Brayford from Cardiff City after an injury to Ryan Flynn exasperated United’s problems at full-back, expressed fears Hypia’s perilous situation on the south coast could persuade Albion to recall O’Grady when questioned on the subject earlier this month.

Christ, its not just the Argus that writes incomprehensible GIBBERISH then.

Maybe it's because tippy tappy foreign bullshit football won us L1 and got us to the Champ playoffs 2 years running.

Man City beat Palace 3-0 with 656 tippy tappy foreign bullshit completed passes on Saturday.

That's my evidence, what's yours? Or is it just ignorant prejudice?
