West Brom skipper Evans refusing to blame strikers for goal drought

Jonny Evans refuses to blame the West Bromwich Albion strikers for not scoring enough goals.

The Baggies have gone 15 matches without a win and have scored just 12 goals for the Premier League season.

But Evans insists the responsibility of scoring falls on the entire team and not just the attackers.

"We attack and defend as a team," said the skipper. "Our service to the strikers has got to be good too.

"We ask them to do a lot of defending from the front, it's a real team game.

"It's up to us to supply the ammunition for them so it swings both ways."
