I agree. Far too many chances. That can be down to him snatching at chances though through a lack of confidence.Chaplin has missed so many absolute sitters now though. He should have at least two more goals and that's being kind

So many City players are missing great chances. Hiwula has missed a number of sitters and so too has JCH. It's not just Chaplin.
I get just as frustrated when Chaplin misses as I do when JCH and Hiwula do.
Yeah, without a doubt now if Ponticelli was fit I'd be bringing him in for a shot at being the goalscorer Bakayoko needs a run in the team too.Hiwula has hit the target with his efforts but none of them have been hit with conviction!! JCH should have scored yesterday his chance was easier than chaplins and he didn’t hit the target either!! It’s the whole forward line that isn’t scoring not just 1 player!!!
Hiwula hits far too many straight at the keeper.Hiwula has hit the target with his efforts but none of them have been hit with conviction!!

Yep, but some use his 500k tag to beat him with a stick over it.Hiwula has hit the target with his efforts but none of them have been hit with conviction!!

It's so annoying all round.Weird thing is chaplin. I remember his first 3 games, he had two efforts beautifully drilled low from about 10-18 yards both ruled out for really really tight offside. Barnsley was one, the other was away somewhere. I remember thinking, that's what we have lacked, how unlucky is CC they were minorly offside. And since then it just hasn't happened
Looking at that, I don't think Chaplin touched it did he? At the time I thought he headed it wide, but he looks like he maybe misses the ball entirely.
As for their first, we have 1 City player marking 2 Blackpool attackers and 3 City players marking 1 Blackpool player. What the hell is going on there?
And Hyam is so weak there, so so weak. Made it easy for their striker. That' schoolboy stuff and embarrassing
Saying he didn’t touch the header is bizarre
Why?Saying he didn’t touch the header is bizarre
Why?
At the time I said he headed it wide, but having listened to Robins saying it took a bad bounce and my not seeing any bad bounce at the time just made me wonder if it was just an awful bounce off the turf that made it change direction.
I was convinced he headed it and saw no bad bounce at the time.
Nothing bizarre in trying to second guess MR's comments.
It would have gone out near the corner flag if he hadn’t touched it
Agree, but I think JCH's miss was just as bad.When Chaplin joined us it was with the reputation of being a finisher in the Ponticelli mode, but with more experience and a better all round game. All players miss chances, however good they are, but for yesterdays chance I would have expected a 'natural' goalscorer to be more balanced in anticipation of being passed the ball, or to have thrown themselves at the ball, given that any half decent connection would have put it in the net from that close in.

Fair enough and I agree, but both clearly should have scored there.Clarke Harris was not ever considered an out and out goalscorer - Chaplin has only one purpose and that’s to score goals in and around the six yard box
If Chaplin is a striker, then I’m the arch bishop of fucking Canterbury!
I thought it was just called Canterbury, I might go and live thereIf Chaplin is a striker, then I’m the arch bishop of fucking Canterbury!
He should have just used his instinct and not second guessed it.It's a good ball in for the first goal but shouldn't we have a player on the posts who could come and deal with the second ball, as for the second just poor defending from a long ball straight down the middle.
Bounce, what bounce, Chaplin caught in 2 minds.

Well I would agree, but he has been scoring lately and I think that is what is keeping him in the side.Otis he was missing sitters in his first games after signing. He needs to be pulled out of the fray for a few games and put to work scoring open goals in training. Maybe even work up to some tap ins.

Just saying why I think Robins is doing it.Wycombe he was anonymous apart from the penalty
Plymouth he was shocking apart from the free kick
Scunthorpe he had a simple header after the goalie made a mistake
The whole "scoring" thing so he has to play doesn't stack up, especially as Bakayoko came on against Charlton and changed the game by scoring 2 and then vanished again after. Hiwula scored when playing up front but keeps getting shifted out of the way.
