If I was to suggest there was a consensus from this forum last season, it was that Alty struggled to score goals and lacked a proven striker.
We are now 16 games into a new season and with respect to new signings and retained players, nobody yet seems to have filled that perceived gap.
And yet, we are 11th, solidly mid-table.
That got me looking at our stats in the league so far.
16 games, 7 wins, 3 draws, 6 losses (fairly even).
30 goals scored (5th best in the league).
24 goals conceded (=14th).
Only 2 games in which we have failed to score.
Only 2 clean sheets.
Only 1 defeat by more than 1 goal.
Four wins by more than 1 goal.
All of the above achieved with a continued consensus that Alty lack a pedigree goal scorer, we have a well respected defence and a goalkeeper so improved that he is challenging for NL player of the season.
Given the above, where does this forum now think that Alty most need to improve in order to step up to the next level?
No agenda here. Just asking for opinions.
