I think he looked frustrated at Reading. He made some runs and created space but passes never came. He never stopped trying to. Snatching at chances is a sign of low confidence or pressure. And its clear the manager didnt fancy him.
He needed games and he needed to fit a style.
I’ve already said, im not convinced tge actual striker is the issue, its the total lack of creating chances, which carried from end of last season.
How much will have today’s performance added (or not) to the transfer pot to sign Wareham (or similar alternative) I wonder?
It felt a bit like the lineup was made to prove we needed to spend on him.
It’s been said a dozen times or more on here but it bears repetition. If a centre forward is not receiving the service he requires he’ll struggle really hard to have any real impact, let alone score goals.
Exeter manager Matt Taylor on Jayden Wareham: “there has been a lot going on and there will be a lot going on in a short period of time. We expect things to happen in the next week.”
