Manchester United midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger
has voiced his frustration with his side's lack of goals
this season.
Bastian Schweinsteiger feels Manchester United are lacking a
striker with the killer instinct of Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo
or Thomas Muller.
Louis van Gaal's men were held to a goalless draw by West
Ham at the weekend, their fifth game without a goal in their last
nine matches in all competitions, and their top scorer this term,
Wayne Rooney, has scored just seven goals in all competitions.
Schweinsteiger feels United have been creating plenty of
chances but have been found wanting in front of goal.
"In every game we create chances, but haven’t scored. When
that is not the case it is not easy to win matches," the German
midfielder was quoted as saying by Manchester Evening News.
"If you miss a chance you have to be unhappy. It is about
attitude when you are a striker, a big striker, like a Ronaldo,
Messi and Thomas Muller. They want to score goals. They have
quality but they want to score goals. You need the attitude that
you want to score.
"Our players are not scared in front of goal, no. It is all about
the killer instinct. We have players who have the abilities but we
need it in every game.
"With luck or whatever you have to score. The feeling that the
players want to score, we need to have more of this. We are
trying. We are creating and that is a good thing. The problem is
a mix of everything, it is that last pass. You have to look up to
see what is on. We have players who can score goals."
