Perhaps it's no coincidence that our goal-drought has coincided with the loss of some of most creative players due to injury.
Sousa, McCleod & Clark, all skilful wingers capable of getting behind defences & putting balls into the box, have all been absent recently.
I must agree with Lord D about Nolan. Earlier this season he was consistently our most creative & quick thinking midfielder. Why the sudden fall from grace?
The last time Edwards played (against Wigan) he scored, along with Sousa (2) & McCleod (1). With Jackson misfiring, surely it's time to give the lad another chance.
Let's hope Sousa & McCleod recover quickly, so we can get back to the simple, effective wing-play that proved so successful against the better teams we played in the pre-season friendlies.
