Wiltherhe’s season, while marked by attacking flair, highlighted the need for greater defensive consistency. Conceding 42 goals suggests room for tightening the backline, especially in high-pressure situations. Additionally, increasing the number of draws and converting more of their goal-scoring opportunities into wins could elevate their league standing. Building on the positive goal difference, focusing on defensive solidity and tactical discipline could turn close matches into valuable points.
