The Premier League season has drawn to a close and what a brilliant ten months of the beautiful game it was.
Manchester City pipped Liverpool to the title by just a singular point to retain their crown.
But without the goals of the likes of Sergio Aguero and Raheem Sterling, it could have been a very different story.
In light of this, talkSPORT.com wanted to figure out which forwards were not as clinical in front of goal this season.
Gonzalo Higuain was recruited by Chelsea to fix their striking woes, but ultimately the Argentine was more wasteful than lethal, having converted just 10.9 per cent of his shots.
But which other forwards were wasteful throughout the campaign? Have a look at the list in full below…
