Sunderland boss Gus Poyet is confident the goals will soon flow for Jermain Defoe.
Defoe is yet to score since his arrival from Toronto FC, while strike partner Steven Fletcher is without a goal in nearly three months.
But Poyet said: "I don't think I would be able to score too many goals in this team if I was playing because we don't cross enough.
"We practise and we tell the players to cross - that is the plan. Fletcher needs deliveries but we don't deliver enough.
"As for Jermain, the more we talk about him not scoring, the longer it will look. I'm not bothered because I know he will score. We need to do a few things better for that to happen.
"We need to create chances, we must do that better. But I'm thinking more about winning than Jermain scoring."
