Morgan Whittaker: Plymouth Argyle must create more chances for top scorer - Ian Foster

Morgan Whittaker's equaliser at Blackburn Rovers was his first goal in six games
Plymouth Argyle boss Ian Foster says his side must create more chances for top scorer Morgan Whittaker.
The highly rated 23-year-old scored for the first time in six games in the 1-1 draw at Blackburn Rovers.
It took the forward - the subject of a transfer bid from Italian giants Lazio in January - on to 19 goals for the season in all competitions.
It helped Argyle get on the scoresheet for just the second time in their last six, after a difficult spell.
"He's not off track, we've got to supply Morgan, we've got to give him opportunities to score," Foster said after the game at Ewood Park.
"A lot of Morgan's goals he creates himself through individualism.
"But we have to create as well through combination play, crosses and cutbacks, and get the balls in the right area for him, for Ryan [Hardie], for Mustapha [Bundu], for Alfie [Devine], for Darko [Gyabi].
"Whoever plays in those positions, we have to be in a position where we're creating opportunities.
"I know that those types of players have got really strong mentalities, having worked with them, so it won't affect them.
"They've got drive and they've got resilience, and Morgan will always carry a goal threat, we've just got to make sure that we get him more opportunities to score."
