I completely agree. The main problem in this team is chance creation, not goals, which has been an issue since our League Two promotion season. It is the thing that even makes our wins feel boring and/or stressful, as we can nab the odd goal but for the vast majority of the game it feels like we get into the opposition's final third and run out of ideas, leading to a tame shot or a hopeful cross into the box towards Jamie Reid, who isn't the type of player to challenge aerially against a centre back (imagine him trying to get something out of Piergianni or Charlie Goode!).

Reid isn't entirely blameless though, I wasn't bothered when he missed that open goal against Colchester mainly because I expected him to miss. We don't see what happens in training, but he must be banging them in to have gotten this amount of blind trust when he goes through his 2-3 month drought every season.

I saw a post somewhere which summed it up nicely: "We've had 4 years, so 8 transfer windows, and our manager still thinks our best front two is Reid & Roberts. Someone has done an awful job somewhere for that to be the case."
