bit of a shocking stat. That's less than United, City, Chelsea, Arsenal, Everton, West Brom, Liverpool, Swansea, Fulham, Newcastle, West Ham and Reading.
On one hand it's a credit to the team that we have the same home record as Chelsea (7 wins, 4 draws, 2 losses) having scored 10 less goals than them and conceded one more, that's being incredibly efficient.
However, we really do need to find a way of finding the net more regularly at home. It's probably got a lot to do with teams sitting back, we've often had trouble breaking these sort of teams down at the lane. Arsenal look unlikely to do that, so here's hoping we start to put it right tomorrow
20 Goals at Home

Wow hadn't actually noticed that so far. Over the last few years we've always battered someone at home to boost the goals scored column but not so far, I guess out away record in terms of points picked up counters this though

might have something to do with lack of strikers

Sorry but who cares , all that maters is the 3 points ....
We dont employ the OK you score 3 and we'll score 4 method anymore
We employ the you dont score and we dont lose method now
Yep it's nice to see lots of goals but I'm happy to swap that for keeping clean sheets and winning games

Squid - we don't win any more at home like that though. In fact it's probably going to be worse than usual as we have already played 7 of the bottom 10 (including the whole bottom 4) at WHL and have toughies to come.
A Redknapp side of the last few years at home and an AVB one away wouldn't be too shabby.

The last 11 prem games have been unbeaten . only conceeded a few goals and only more than 1 in one match.....................AVB has to use hus resourses to the max and you cannot deny he has done that sunce the Everton match
Yes it's not pretty but it's results and points are all that matter

I'd take a robust and solid performance all day long at home tomorrow
