we average 1 or 2 shots at or on goal every match, thats a very poor stat and we wont again this season if we carry on, we cant purely focus on defending!

Why create this thread after a game where we had 10 shots.....makes no sense.

I think he has a point. Today being an exception being 2 down at half time we had no choice but to go forward. We play way to deep for this division, by the time the ball is out on the wing they have at least 3 or four people back. We cant hit teams on the break and most are goals have either been oppertunistic acts of individualism or set pieces from corners.

This is down to Poyet.

Going through espn's match reports, in the league we average:

7.22 shots per game, 2.96 on goal, and average one goal per game

Looking at how we have scored more goals than we had shots on target in some games, they must remove goals from the shots total, which would add one more to each (8.22 for shots, 3.96 for shots on goal).

The average of your selection from today's matches is 10.17
Today we had 10.

We are around average, not about level with the worst.
