We are too busy maintaining 0 against,to allow much time for scoring goals......For all i know this might well be the right tactics,by the end of the season.
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊
[Albion] There is ZERO chance of SIGNING anyone today.

Outside of the top six, only Everton and Leicester have strikers who have scored more goals than Glenn Murray this season:

Leicester are the only team outside of the top six that has any players with more assists than Pascal Gross:
https://www.premierleague.com/stats/top/players/goal_assist?se=79
Gross has also scored 4 goals.
We are not scoring enough goals as a team and we need recruits to challenge for places, but let's not slag off players who are performing above most pundit's expectations.
Yes - I made this point on another thread a while ago. The other thing is that Murray's 'minutes per goal' is pretty good as well - as is his percentage of shots on target. Trouble is, he can't play all the minutes anymore, so we can't make best use of that. The main problem, as you say, is the back up scorers.

Worrying stat is that Middlesbrough went down due to the failure to score goals, they had scored 1 more than us at the 22 game point last season.
Many points did they have though?

It's 3 days into the window and people are already soiling themselves because we haven't signed anyone.
WTF are they going to be like in two weeks!

Interestingly, Burnley and Watford who both finished on 40pts had 24pts and 26pts at this stage of the season

My god! Dropping into this conversation is like listening into the dullest conversation between 2 bored, half asleep fans at 2 oclock in the morning, somewhere on the M6 travelling back from Carlisle!
It is now [emoji23][emoji23]

By the end of next week I think we will have signed TWO players, neither of which will be a striker, one, if not both will be for the development squad. Striker will come in the final week I reckon.
