Yep. There are games where things don't work and games where it does. It's a dice roll. There were plenty of games last season where we were super clinical and took our only chances.Because shit happens. Sometimes you score 4 goals from 4 attempts as it happened in the first 25 minutes against Chelsea. Sometimes you miss many many chances. That's football.
When Barca lost the CL semi with Chelsea in 2012, they missed lots of chances, hit the post, wasted a pen, etc. It's about probabilities. Sometimes the result doesn't reflect the play.
No. The grass isn't always greener. As has been made clear by Jesus' development and Aguero's changes under Pep, we're not a team who can afford to have a "fox in the box" type of striker. As it happens, we have Jesus, Aguero, and Sterling who are all excellent poachers, but a striker in a Pep side is always more of a false nine. Find me a striker who can be this "fox in the box" type from a lesser league who's also got a great first touch, great strength, can link up play, be confident in possession, help out defensively as Jesus and Aguero so often do, and be willing to rotate with the both of them, then we'll talk.This is something I have thought for a long time, what we lack is an absolute clinical finisher, a fox in the box type of player. I really believe there must be a player somewhere in a lesser league who would be devastating for us.
About eight of them were mishit or very poor efforts.10 shots on target.
