My concern is the amount of chances we create. Even the top sided who win 3-0 have to create 12 or so chances. We had just 2 last night. We cannot expect to score with so few opportunities
To be fair we had 4 shots on target out of 10

My observation was around the report saying it could have been 4-4 at half time. My opinion was that we couldn’t complain if we were 3 goals down at half time, based around the on target efforts. Better still to say I was pleased they didn’t have a good striker taking those chances.
