The players missed so many open opportunities and one on ones. Disgraceful really, but a point and we move on.

Loads of chances. Could have put it away and their offside goal would not have mattered.
Bringing on cav was marco
We really should have scored more, so many chances but also worrying how teams can put us under pressure with crosses particularly from set pieces.

Okay I'll give you that. He's garbage. Why not Muniz?
The passing was off in the first half. The second half we could have had a hatful of goals. This is beginning to feel like a continuing problem. These are basics and for some reason since our good start we just seem to be lacking in the basics.
Same story all season missing hatfuls of chances

Cav. only had minutes on the pitch but he managed a trade mark miss with his close in shot going way over the bar.
However Mitro, Wilson and Kebano were also guilty of missing golden chances.
The only thing I worry about with how we're set up, is that we need the team to play at a high tempo to be at all effective. The minute we start playing slowly we look really poor and sloppy on the ball.
Mitro would have scored his chances in the last five minutes if it was Serbia. He just shows more composure for them.

EVERY season for some time!
Even in our promotion season, 2 years ago, I was amazed that Mitro was the league's top scorer. He's so wasteful in front of goal - the opposite of clinical - and doesn't have a particularly hard shot to boot (forgive the pun}.

Wasn't that the Parkerball system?

If it ain't a tap in, Mitrovic ain't scoring it.
Mitrovic can't miss the chances he does and feel comfortable he'll start the next match. If this club really wants to push on, he needs competition and when he's not finishing, he gets replaced. Same as in the prem, same now. That's not a put down but the finishing from him and others has been....sub par.
Fine margins as they say.
Mitro did well to get on the end of those efforts, and there were often only inches between a great goal, and an awful miss.
Both him and Wilson seem to have lost a bit of confidence, after results hasn't gone our way after our great start to the season, but scoring, and winning games, will soon restore that.
We should have won yesterday, but our luck hasn't been in, though it was a point away, and at one stage they looked very likely to score another- but well done to our defenders for a heroic effort, particularly Odoi and Ream.

He lobbed the keeper from 30 yards for Serbia.
The number of times Cavaleiro has shot wildly over the bar the past couple of seasons, must be approaching 3 figures. Literally never seen a player with so little composure, seems his 2 smart finishes against Huddersfield were an anomaly
Can anyone tell me if Munich has pace and is quicker than Cav? I agree Cav is wasteful but from memory he is pretty quick. Bringing on Cav over Muniz would make sense in terms of having pace on yeh counter attack and also being able to track back if necessary. Bringing on Muniz (who is unproven, and doesn't exactly have a scoring record) would be more of a gamble which is not necessary at this stage of the season.

OOHHH!! That might have hurt.
To be honest, re-reading my comment, I'm still happy with it. It'll be even tougher next season so if Mitro is out of form or not quite hitting the goals we need, he'll still help and havign 3 capable strikers seems to be the necessity in the Prem. Even Burnley who generally play one up top always has 3 options.
The bigger surprise is that someone bothered to remember one comment and drag it back up 8 months later...

I agree 100% with the comments, even if Mitro had scored 75 goals this season, at times this season he has been wasteful. That is a fact.

Am I wrong? in August I said Mitro would score 45 goals, I think he could easily have been on more. My comments on him have proven to be correct.

It is only a fact if there were an objective criteria for what constitutes 'wastefulness'. Their isn't, however. As such, it is your subjective opinion, and certainly not a fact.

Mitro missed easy opportunities to score, whilst converting more difficult chances, so based on that, it's factually correct.
I think this thread was clearly spot on. The fact we scored so many goals in the end but only now secured the Championship means we were wasteful in games. We also had some very odd results. So we can rightly enjoy these great moments. But it doesn't nullify the criticism when it comes along.

An overly neurotic, slightly spiteful and semi photographic one most likely! Thank you
