Over the last month (since Dessers has been dropped) we've had 7 different scorers. 

 

Over the month of November (when Dessers was always playing) we had 3 different scorers.  

 

You have to cover August - November to get 6+ different scorers when Dessers plays. 

 

We just seem like a better team when he doesn't play.  

Different games, different opposition, same tactics, too few goals nonetheless. Dessers isn't the problem.

Not that I expected anything different from PC. Our wingbacks are probably the most light-weight in years ...

 

Kelly

 

Ridvan - Sterling - Pröpper - Jefte

 

Diomande - Raskin (C.)

 

Cerny - Bajrami - Hagi

 

Igamane

 

Subs: Munn - Cortes, Barron, Dessers, Matondo, Dowell, King, Fraser, Danilo

 

 

I wonder who picked this team the big Belgian bun or the sports scientist .

That's my point: too few goals scored. 

 

My conclusion differs as I see Dessers being a big part of the problem, as shown by the above stats.

We've only had one "punishment beating" in the last 2-3 years.

August to November, Dessers was our only fit striker.

Any beating from them is a punishment beating one way or another.

 

Today likely to be another beating, severity TBC.

That's certainly true, but the point remains: we have more scorers when Dessers doesn't play.

Over 8 games that looks to be the case. In most of those 8 games we played 2 strikers and changed our tactics. 

 

Then in the last two (three if you count today), we've gone back to 1 striker and we've lost points.

Got a weird feeling we might win...
