Chopra scored 22 goals in 2006/07, 39% of the tally. That's unhealthy. He went through a phase of scoring once in 14 games. During that time we won once and scored 6 goals in those games. Perhaps it might be interesting to see if, during those seasons when we were more reliant on strikers, did it affect our results more when they didn't score, as in did others step up to the plate or not? My guess is they didn't.
