Scoring vs not conceding.

The current way we play does remind me a little of the QPR side who won the league ahead of us in 2010/11

They were not prolific scorers but only conceded 32 goals all season.

I truly believe we have a real shot at the top two.
We have lost only 3 games with the top two losing 2 games.

The big it factor is injuries. If we can get Nelson fit, Marley firing and Pritchard and Tettey back we could be a real force.

I know some think we need another striker. We dont if all 3 are fit. Plus we do still have Naismith on the books too!
The problem playing with 2 strikers would be how do we play Wes, Maddison, Pritchard, Murphy, Mario ect ect.
While people worry about Nelson being injured, I would suggest that CamJam getting injured would be a big blow.

As Mick highlighted, if we get a lead away from home we can sit in with Jerome keeping their back 4 busy as the out ball or channel ball.
Clearly we are very difficult to breakdown in this formation.
Of course this doesn't work as well at home. Many teams would be happy to come away from CR with a point.
