Sometimes perception is contrary to the reality. According to the BBC records, in Ian Foster’s last five games remarkably we have had 74 shots at goal (27 on target) but have only scored three goals with a W1 D1 L3 record and F3 A5 goals. Foster also has marginally a better shots on target ratio over the last five games. We are demonstrably better away from home than at home in terms of shots at goal. It is clearly the latter that needs to addressed if we are to secure our Championship status and that must start on Monday, that is the reality.That's a good point, if we missed earlier this season it didn't matter because another chance would come along soon enough.
In Schumacher's last five games as manager (two defeats, a draw and two wins) we created an incredible 82 attempts on goal but we only scored five goals. Against Leicester we had 15 shots, against QPR with 10 men from the 25th minute we created 12 chances, against Rotherham we had an incredible 25 attempts on goal.
It could be argued that we were poor finishers.
Now we simply have to score from the rare chances we create. Our previously poor finishers now have to score from limited chances.
