Raggett said: ‘It’s happened (not scoring) a fair few times this season. That’s not me putting it on the forwards, that’s down to us as a team collectively.

‘It’s the same then going forward. Our attacking play is the whole team and it starts with us in the backline with Gavin (Bazunu) in goal and across the whole pitch. We all take a collective responsibility for that.’
