I recall that before this round of games (can't find that post on here at the moment - it was about busy defense and attack), we were leading the lead in shots for, and near the bottom (top that is, in terms of where you want to be) in shots against. After yesterday I doubt that changed.
I can only assume that AVB has told the players not to hesitate to shoot when around the box...a sort of collective Franck Lampard tactic. Obviously the more shots you take, the more goals you're likely to score, although unfortunately it's not a linear relationship. So we don't lead the league in goals scored, but over the season the two figures ought to be roughly proportional (to be confirmed).
As for the few shots on goal, that's obviously a combination of the high line and our great DMs.
