Yes he has squandered chances but he gets starved of service overall.
3 (inc 1 penalty) goals in 46 shots in 24 games last season. 23 of those were ‘big chances’ - a big chance conversion rate of 13%
The only player to miss more big chances was Salah 21 missed out of 41 - a 49% conversion rate.

Other conversion rates

Morata (considered to have had a poor season) 37%
Kane 55
Aguero 51
Jesus 48
Sterling (considered to miss a lot!) 54
Lacazette 40
Lukaku 50
Mane 39
Richarlison 27

This stat points to the fact that he missed a lot of sitters rather than us not creating chances for him. Most decent strikers score 40/50% of big chances. 3/23 -13% is pathetic. Half his attempts 23/46 were big chances. Stats don’t lie to that extent. We created decent chances. He missed them. It’s not like he took loads of speculative long range shots.

Overall shots to goals ratio (without penalties) 4%

The top 20 in the league ranged from 16 to 24%

What sort of strange life-form gets up at 7.00 a.m. on a Sunday morning, (during an international break), and starts haranguing one of our players, in multiple repetitive posts - a player who is currently recovering from surgery ?

BTW, anyone know when he's back (Benteke, not the life-forms).

If you are going to have a go at someone make it clear who it is so I can agree.

God do we need him back ASAP, no matter what you think of him. He’s far better than any alternative we have. Now he’s in full training, surely it’s not that far away?

Interesting that Tomkins doesn’t score from corners without Benteke in the team

You know you're in big trouble when you're resting your hopes on Benteke and Wickham.

At least he misses chances, if we go 1 down with Wilf and Andros upfront, we never look like scoring as the oppo just crowd them out and we resort to lumping it into the box.

Given how many CB has scored with his head for us, the goals will surely come when he's fully fit!

Will be interesting to seen when he returns. He wasn’t in the pre-Brighton training videos with the rest of the squad.

I think we have more chance of getting Wickham back before Tekkers.

Only if Townsend puts the crosses in.

Since Benteke has been injured he's put in more crosses than he had done in the previous year. Beating a man then clipping them into the back post.

As soon as we bought Sorloth on, who was waiting at the back post, he started drilling in crosses to the front post.

Lets hope come next month the Board remove those blinkers and realise they need to dig deep to strengthen what CPFC call an attack, when in reality it's been an embarrassment to watch week in week out.

Our Board have been complacent again. To find themselves in this position after what happened last year is chronic mismanagement.
