Scoring

Wonder if anyone might be concerned that we appear to have scored fewer than all but three League 1 teams this season? Before the campaign started many were suggesting we would outscore most opponents and our defense would be the weakness.
Do we need to bolster the attack, if that's not an obvious question?
 
I think the goals are starting to come as the team has improved -

7 in the first 9 league games
12 in the last 9 league games (whilst playing a lot of teams near the top). We've also hit 3 and 4 during this period in FA Cup games albeit against lower league opposition.
 
Be interesting to see how we fare against teams in the bottom half of the league after we've just basically played the top 6.

We definitely need to bolster the attack in terms of depth though.
 
There is no doubt despite our improvement that we lack natural goalscorers and I certainly include Yates and Madine in that description.If we are able to strengthen in January that is the most urgent area for investment.
 
Any centre forward will tell you that you cannot score goals without good service. It's impossible.

Despite me getting slated for it the delivery to the strikers from both wings and centre MF has been pitiful.

I haven't noticed anybody slating you for saying that.
