And to add to the original point, its not just an absence of goals, but an absence of a genuine goal scorer. My nostalgic memories are built on the likes of Best, Garner, Guthrie, Parker (both Stuart and Derrick) Spence, Phillips, Cadette, Crown, Angell, Collymore etc etc where we knew that if we played well one of the afore-mentioned would have an opportunity (or two) to excite us and give us something to cheer. I look at the team sheet now and struggle to see where the goals will come from, however well we play. One goal from midfield in over 450 minutes of football is a concern.
Agreed. Just with 2 examples of the above, Stan & Freddie. If they were playing you always had the expectation of 'something happening' from no-where.
Appreciate that players like that are hard to come by on a regular basis, but alas there is no-one in the current side who to me give off that vibe.
