disagree with that - I don't think we create that many chances
obviously Oliveira isn't Ronaldo - he's going to miss more than he scores, like any striker at this level. And he's only missing one or two chances a game at most.
We've averaged a goal a game all season - which obviously isn't a lot in the Championship - so even if Oliveira was top scorer in the league (currently 17 goals), we'd still only be averaging 1.3 goals per game. It IS a defensive system and, as such, the striker's game is about much more than just scoring.
