The Bucs have plenty of options in attack but still find themselves as one of the lower scoring teams in the league. Here's what the readers said on the "Pirates urged to solve goal-scoring dilemma before season resumes" story:
"Evidence Makgopa was a regular at both Baroka and Bafana but they still went on to buy two pensioners in the form of Kermit and Ndumiso [Mabena]" says the opinionated Shikabala.
"I do not remember Jose our coach saying we have a scoring dilemma. The technical team will resolve this low scoring challenge and scoring goals is not the role of a striker alone. Look at Sundowns most of their goals are not scored by strikers any player has a responsibility to score.
"The problem is the system played on the day, the distance between strikers and midfielders need to be shortened so we can attack as a group not only with strikers," says Fela.
