The penultimate paragraph is a perfect summation of the last month.

Our goalscoring record is decent so far. Eight against Burton and Barnsley skewing it but that's pretty good going against poor sides. Regularly scoring at home may be an issue though.

The line "scoring just ten against some of the poorest sides in the league is indicative of where any potential drawbacks lie" is even more pertinent when you consider that seven of those ten goals were scored in two games.

7 against  those two not eight (sorry). Yes agreed we have been very low scoring at home bar Norwich.
