All I expect from Jill Scott is to run around a lot,shaking her head while doing so.The opportunities are there for anyone.
It's not like the team need someone to create out of nothing; it's just a lack of confidence!
I expected Jill Scott to just nod that header into the virtually empty net, despite the keeper coming out!
It hasn't. That performance can only be described as poor. There seems to be a complete lack of positive decision making when we approach the opposition area. The finishing today was pretty grim even though Alistair was trying to make out the goalie played out of her jersey. And there were two or three occasions where it looked as thought the Colt 45 was out, loaded and ready for a shot at our own foot. The game was very similar to too many last season where we are faced with an opposition whose only ambition is to maintain a presence in the league, and who have a plethora of athletes in the team who can press for 99 mins. The general outfield play is slow, ponderous and plays into the hands of a team who are reasonably organised and will run all day. The finishing is a major concern. We had several good chances, most of which should have been put away. There was a header from Beckie with the only the goalie to beat, who had rushed out and she doesn't get over it and it's a yard over the bar. Pretty much summed up the afternoon!Last time I was able to watch them live the finishing was abysmal, it sounds like nothing has changed.
Georgia Stanway missed loads in the first game and missed our best chances in this game. Wasteful in possession as well.
She seems the golden girl in the squad but she needs dropping.
