To clarify, this was a genuine concern when originally raised by Big Wurzil, but it's now just a stick to beat Martin Canning with.
It's one stat, varies from game to game - 12 attempts, 4 on target v St Mirren for instance - and it's improving. But as the St Mirren stats show, they can be misleading: we won that one 3-0, yet not so different stats, v Rangers, led to a 1-4 defeat. There can be great scoring chances, goalmouth incidents, near things, that don't lead to "shots on target" or even "shots".
Our team is coming together: this new team may even be better than last season's, and there are grounds for optimism. Let's not get hung up on one stat.
