Gus Poyet admits his shot-shy side have a lot to work on if they are to start scoring goals again.
The Seagulls have netted just once in five games after a 1-0 reverse at Watford tonight.
They failed to muster a single effort on target against a Hornets side who have been leaking goals on a regular basis of late.
The unhappy Albion boss said: “If you don't pass the ball and you don't create and you don't open up the opposition and you are not brave enough and if you don't take players on and you don't cross the ball properly and if you don't move in the box at the right time and if you are not stronger than a defender and, and, and...
“To score first you have to hit the target and we didn't hit the target once today.
“You don't need to put it in the top corner.”
Poyet revealed midfielder Liam Bridcutt left the action after half an hour because he was feeling ill after taking a whack to the head.
