You’re right it’s not rocket science, it’s football.
He does have other people pushing up beside him but that’s not the point.
The system we play is to have as much possession as possible, which is fine as far as it goes. The problem comes with us not getting the ball into dangerous areas often enough and therefore not having enough shots on goal. Bishop is not the ideal line leader in my opinion, we need a proper line leading forward with Bishop playing off him. That way he’d be under less pressure and would score more goals.
Yesterday followed the same pattern as recent mstches, lots of the ball but the opposition keeper rarely troubled. We need to sort this asap if we are serious about promotion.
He never seems to want to get across his defenders or near the front post he just waits for the perfect ball in.
