Concerning our recent bad performance in the PL being blamed exclusively on the strikers...
In the 3 month period since February during which we have won 1 game, the much maligned strike force has scored...9 goals. (and counting)
In the 6 month period before February they scored...7 goals.
The strikers have scored more goals during our very poor run than during our good run in half as much time. They are obviously not great, but equally, they are not the cause of this problem.
So from now on, when people are asked what our problem has been recently, think twice before you reply with total conviction...'the strikers'
(I only included league goals)
