If we had a 0-0 draw then maybe you can blame the striker for missing chances. Just thought i'd throw that out there.
Yes, but the vitriol directed towards the guys up top is like a snowball that been building all season.

We're equal fifth best in terms of goals conceded this season. Not the best, but not bad by our standards.

We're last in terms of goals scored, 5 behind even CCM.

So while you're absolutely correct that if we hadn't conceded today we wouldn't have lost, it's hard to argue against the idea that our real weakness this season has been our ability to score goals, rather than prevent them.

As I said, your point is definitely right. But given the framework of our season, it's understandable that a lot of frustration is vented towards our strikers.
