Jason Roberts and Kevin Philips scored about 1 in 4 last season. I should add that Philips had over 70 shots and Roberts had just 28!
Also they play as out and out strikers not left midfield. I would guess that the majority of shots they take are from favourable positions.
The thing is we play with one winger and the position that Barnes plays is more of a free role going forward, but is used to protect the left back when we don't have the ball. Whenever Barnes hasn't started or gets subbed, we seem to get mobbed down the left hand side.
At the moment he's not...
Really?
He has played 11 games this season, scored 3 times from 19 shots and also has 2 assists
Zaha who is currently valued at £43 trillion and is apparently responsible for anything good that happens to Palace has played 11 games, scored 4 times from 19 shots and has one assist
Last season...
