Juventus midfielder Claudio Marchisio admits that his personal goal drought is frustrating him.
The Italian has regularly found the net over the previous two seasons, but he has yet to open his account after 17 games this term.
“I do miss it a bit, because I’ve been used to getting them in recent years,” the 27-year-old commented.
“Not much has changed on the field, and in fact Paul Pogba and Arturo Vidal are scoring regularly, but it’s also true that Mirko Vucinic and Fernando Llorente are different.
“The former provides a lot of assists, whereas the latter is more of a goal poacher who does his work in the box.
“In any case, it’s the team rather than individuals which is important, and we’re five points ahead of Roma.”
The Old Lady collected their ninth straight League win on Sunday when they beat Atalanta 4-1 in Bergamo.
“The year could have been even better if we’d have got through in the Champions League,” added Marchisio.
“But the important thing is that we’ve ended 2013 on a high and now we’ll make the most of the break to prepare ourselves for the match against Roma.”
