MOWBRAY ON STRIKER STRUGGLES


Tony Mowbray has shared his thoughts on SAFC's ongoing striker situation and the team's fortunes in front of goal.


CYCLE

“It’s a cycle I think we pre-empted really, so when we scored five goals at Wigan and Watford I did sit here and say I know what football is like, down the line we are going to talk about those strikers.


HABITS

“Jack (Clarke) scored the other day but it has been difficult to get people into the middle of the six-yard box. It’s trying to change the habits of a lifetime of a footballer really. It’s ok saying get in the box but when the game is going on and naturally you want to go and have a touch and go away from the goal and come towards the ball it’s hard to change habits of a footballer.


CHANCE CREATION

"We’ll keep persevering. I think we have created enough chances and it’s not like we haven’t had any shots in these games. There are always two teams playing and I feel we have been pretty proactive in the games at home, 16 and 15 shots in the two 0-0 draws for instance, only two on target which is not enough. In the training ground, we practise, we work and keep trying to change that mentality of getting people into the box because you score goals from inside the six-yard box.”
