From our best stats of the season against Burnley to not our worse but taking into account the opposition then stats lacking attacking prowess.
When comparing our stats to last weeks Burnley game.

Against Burnley we attempted 62% of our passes in the defence or middle third of the pitch and 38% in the attacking third.
Against Huddersfield we attempted 76% of our passes in the defence of middle third and 24% in the attacking third
