Not sure that unlocking process has occurred yet, however. Payne has attempted 15 crosses this season with three of them reaching teammates. James McGarry has attempted 12 crosses with all of them picked off by opposition players. Crosses are usually defended, that’s the way they go, but that’s still an annoyingly low conversion rate. Particularly for Tomer Hemed whose best attribute as a striker is how good he is in the air when given the chance to attack those deliveries into the area.
Great work that from niche cache.
What I would like to know is where and how are we trying to get Hemed on the ball?
Some hit and hopes from Payne?
Hooper could counter and be an immovable object in the box. He clicked well with Ball, Payne and he made stuff for himself.
Hemed is getting called for physical stuff and he's getting frustrated.
I think we're still a little all over the place culture wise. Lewis hasn't announced himself yet. Ball hasn't been as effective as he can be. We're still a little disparate.
I have to be honest- I'd consider Louis Fenton up front, solely for his contribution in the last game.
Uffie will figure it out. It's just a bigger job this year.
