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.

          If Aguero is named on the team sheet, I've gotta go for it 8-), gotta play the percentages with the slim chance of Robin being rested for Southhampton (who are looking strong defensively too)

      Berb is an enigma. We've looked really short of ideas going forward lately and he's been dropping deeper and deeper so I wouldn't recommend him. Having said that, I still wouldn't put it past him to knock in a big score (but that might just be the optimist in me)

        Fulham need to put Petric in up top, theres no cutting edge with Berba + Ruiz

        Petric

          I agree to an extent and I think Petric is quality. However, it leaves us with an unbelievably slow attack if Ruiz, Berba & Petric all play. Plus Ruiz doesn't seem to perform out wide

      my view is i dont want either
      if i was backed in a corner, i guess i would take Cole, only because i want my 3 coveted striker spots with top players, ie. RVP, Suarez, Ba (if nails down place), Tevez (same), Aguero. Anyone else breaking into the 3 spots has to be on top form, ie. Fletcher right now

    avl, whu, QPR, SOU, SWA, wba, wig.
