The Numbers Game – Goals Imminent?

With a nod to community member, “In-Tommy-We-Trust’s” excellent “Explosion Imminent” tables in our members area, this latest article focuses on those players who, over the last four Gameweeks, have been providing a significant goal threat without reward.

We take a look at the top performing individuals who have fired in the most shots without scoring, in an attempt to identify those perhaps most likely to provide imminent goal returns.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Next week I’ll play Clyne (wig), the week after I’ll play Davies (QPR).

    Am I best off trading Demel for Wilson now?

        Robin Van Persie too hard to ignore.

        If he had a harder fixture would definately go Bale, but reckon both will explode and I have more to lose by choosing Bale.
