Shooting accuracy

[AM89 0]

As backed up by the stats posted above, we simply don't work the 'keepers enough.

 

Despite high possession percentages in both games vs Motherwell & then Killie, neither GK was really overworked (or even worked!). Can barely recall a save vs Motherwell and McDonald in goals for Killie only started making a couple of saves (still not many) in perhaps last 10 mins of that match.

 

Need to find our shooting boots soon.

Tav, Forrester and Miller were all guilty of poor finishing last Friday. I'd also suggest the service wasn't good enough either and it wasn't until Killie went down to ten men that we really started to get in behind them. Even so, more often than not McKay (or Wallace's) final ball lacked conviction.

 

Related to this is our decision-making which I find really bad at times. Far too often players take the wrong option - whether it's holding onto the ball too long or shooting from unlikely positions; we seem to panic in some situations instead of remaining calm, finding a pass or finishing well.

 

Not sure if that comes from the stands sometimes as the anxiety from some supporters - more so at Ibrox - is almost as frustrating as some of our play.
