We can all see where we are falling down, 3 shots on target?
Maupay is less than useless, Brighton must have been rubbing their hands together when we bought that crock for 15m.
If memory serves me right 2 of those were from Cannon and he was only on the field for about 15mins.
DCL has turned into a glass figurine, we need striking reinforcements in January, I still think FL is the man to take us places I hope the board back him in the market #COYB ?.

Our problem is creativity for me. We've got wingers that like to beat a man three times then pass it back or lose it rather than get it in the box. With better balls coming into the striker we give ourselves a better chance of scoring. Maupay has scored goals in this league before so let's give him the ammunition to do it for us. That said, another striker is needed as DCL has a few issues and can't be relied upon.
We've desperately got to get the next window right.

I agree BP, the thing is I saw 2 things on Sat from Maupay that tells me he’s not the striker we need regardless of service.
1. I think it was Gray who got a good cross straight through the box, Maupay didn’t pre-empt that cross was coming in, he was about 5 yards behind it when it flashed in front of him.
2. Maupay got the ball on the edge of their box, turned to make a pass back (Of course) and was just eased off the ball by the Bournemouth lad with no effort whatsoever and no fight back.
Not good enough, u could put David Beckham in his prime whipping balls in that box and Maupay wouldn’t get on the end of any of em.
Tom Cannon had 10-15mins at the end of that game and was still more exciting and dangerous than Maupay had been all game!
