Bristol City head coach Liam Manning wants more goals from across his team and not to have to rely on the forwards.
The Robins have only managed to score more than two goals in a game twice this season - and Nahki Wells and Anis Mehmeti have scored nine of City's 20 league goals between them.
"It also includes the central defenders - at Burnley especially ,with the number of corners and wide free-kicks, there were some terrific deliveries but not enough chances created off the back of them," Manning told BBC Radio Bristol.
"I'd be looking at Rob Dickie, Luke McNally, Zak Vyner and Jason Knight - who's a real attacking threat."
City have lost three of their past four Championship matches and host Plymouth on Saturday.
"The second you're dependent on one person to score goals, if you lose that person then you're in a bit of trouble and everyone needs to contribute and play their part," Manning added.

Bristol City have to find their "ruthless edge", said captain Jason Knight after they fell to a second consecutive league defeat against Watford on Tuesday.
The Robins had 14 shots, with five of those on target, to seven from Watford with only one on target - the goal scored by Ryan Andrews early in the second half.
"It's that ruthless edge. We had three or four chances; we should have really converted and then the game's different," Knight told BBC Radio Bristol.
"We had many chances, especially first half in and around their box, and we've got to be more impactful."
Defeat follows a 1-0 loss to Burnley on Saturday, which leaves Bristol City 11th in the table, five points off the play-offs.
"The last couple of games we've had big moments that we haven't capitalised on - against good teams - but we've got to get something out of those moments," Knight said.

Bristol City teenage centre-back Jamie Knight-Lebel said it was "still sinking in" after he made his international debut for Canada at the weekend.
The 19-year-old - who is on loan at League Two Crewe this season - was born in Montreal and grew up speaking French and English before moving to Bristol aged five and joining the Robins academy aged 14.
He came off the bench during the second half of Canada's 3-0 quarter-final win against Suriname in the Concacaf Nations League in Toronto.
"I'm making sure I'm doing my job for the team but, at the same time, taking it all," Knight-Lebel said.
"The first match, debut, it's important to take in those moments."
You can hear the full interview with Knight-Lebel - who is likely to be playing for Crewe on Monday in their trip away to Port Vale - on Monday's edition of BBC Radio Bristol's Sound of the City podcast.
You can also hear an interview with Knight-Lebel's Bristol City team-mate Marcus McGuane.
The midfielder talks about becoming the first Englishman since Gary Lineker to play for Barcelona, when he featured in first team in the Catalan Super Cup during two years with the Spanish giants' reserve team between 2018 and 2020.

Watford are only behind West Brom in the play-off spots on goal difference following their 2-2 draw at Plymouth on Friday night and have won three of their last five games (D1 L1).
They host Bristol City on Tuesday night, who fell to their second defeat in three games in a 1-0 loss at home to Burnley on Saturday, having previously been unbeaten in eight (W3 D5).
Watford have lost only one of their last six league games against Bristol City (W2 D3).
Bristol City are looking to win consecutive away league visits to Watford for the first time since doing so in 2007-08 and 2008-09.
Watford are unbeaten at Vicarage Road in the league in their previous 11 games (W7 D4); they last went 12 such games unbeaten in January 1999.
Bristol City are looking to win three successive away league games for the first time since September 2021 under Nigel Pearson.
Only against Rotherham (9) does Watford's Tom Ince have more EFL goals against a side than Bristol City (8), though he hasn't scored in his last seven league games against the Robins.

Bristol City had to sell homegrown talents Alex Scott, Antoine Semenyo and Tommy Conway, says technical director Brian Tinnion.
Academy product Conway left for Middlesbrough in the summer continuing the trend of the Robins selling their best assets, with Antoine Semenyo and Alex Scott joining Bournemouth in 2023.
Tinnion said the money was being reinvested in "young, hungry" players with the intention they would develop and help the club one day reach the Premier League.
"We offered him [Conway] the highest paid [wage] for his age ever at the football club and he was not interested," Tinnion said at a fans forum this week.
"With a year left on his contract we had to sell him. Semenyo got to a point where he wanted to go to the Premier League, Alex Scott wanted to go to the Premier League, we could not re-contract them so we have to get the best money for them.
"That's the strategy. Then we invest the money in Jason Knight, Max Bird, Yu Hirakawa, Fally [Mayulu] and Sinclair Armstrong, that's what we have to do."
Bristol City have established themselves as a stable mid-table Championship club but last reached the play-offs in 2008.
Head coach Liam Manning said they were aiming to follow a similar model to Brentford of trading players and gradually improving the whole squad.
"When you sell Tommy you reinvest it and get Sincs and you get Fally. The next one that goes you then reinvest, but instead of taking the same you move up a player in the market," Manning said.
"If you look at the squad now to when we came in, I look at the depth, the physicality of the profiles we've got.
"What we've done is gradually upgraded and that's what you do over time. And if you look at Brentford that's what they did."
Image source, PA MediaBristol City will not "fear" Burnley when they visit Ashton Gate on Saturday for their Championship clash, says head coach Liam Manning.
The former Premier League side are fourth in the table and one of the favourites to bounce straight back up to the top flight next season.
Bristol City have not won in their past six league matches against Burnley, with Nigel Pearson and Vincent Kompany in the dugouts the last time they faced each other.
However, Scott Parker's Clarets are only five points ahead of the Robins this season and while Manning said the game would be a "tough challenge", they have confidence within the team.
"The margins are really tight this year, we know they've got depth, we know they're going to be difficult to play against but I do feel that every week," Manning told BBC Radio Bristol.
"The message for the lads is we shouldn't and we wont fear anybody. It's a case of stepping on the pitch and taking confidence from performances and games we've had recently.
"And we're at home so we're going to take the game to them."

Bristol City welcome promotion-chasing Burnley on Saturday having lost just one of their last 10 matches (W4 D5) - a 2-1 defeat to Sheffield United in their most recent game at Ashton Gate.
The Clarets have only suffered defeat once in 12 games (W5 D6) and are just four points off the automatic promotion spots ahead of this weekend's Championship action.
Bristol City have lost each of their last six league games against Burnley, as many defeats as across their prior 21 meetings with the Clarets combined.
Burnley have won each of their last three away league games against Bristol City, scoring 2+ goals in each of those visits to Ashton Gate.
Burnley have only conceded six goals in 15 Championship matches this season, the joint fewest by a team in their first 15 matches in a Championship campaign (since 2004-05) along with QPR in 2010-11.
Bristol City’s Nahki Wells has scored four goals in his last five Championship appearances, only one fewer than he scored in his previous 24 games combined (5).
