It's not the finishing, we usually score when dominant, it's holding on to those leads

I'd say, the fact that we didn't go on to score a second and third goal when we've been miles on top is what is putting our defence under pressure

But also two of those three are much higher in the league than most observers would expect.
The fact they are scoring a higher percentage of chances is a factor.
The other glaring factor, is having the personnel to ensure that you are capable of exceeding Xg.

Our retreat had often been fairly instant. But yes, getting better at scoring a second on the break would definitely help. Can't recall many goals on the break this season. Welbeck against Villa is one, but it's not something we've done well.
Hang on. Are you suggesting we need a new striker?
It is very simple. With 3 points for a win and only 1 for a draw, the league table is disproportionately affected by wins. Whether you favour conceding fewer or scoring morer than the opposition, winning is it, losing isn't.

At least we’re now conceding fewer than our xG against since Sanchez has been in goal.
