Guernsey FC boss Tony Vance says he has been impressed with Sam Murray's recent goalscoring form.
The striker has scored 13 goals in his last seven matches for the Green Lions, including two hat-tricks.
It has taken him to 21 goals for the season and brought him up to fifth place in the Guernsey FC all-time goalscoring charts with 53 goals in a career that began in 2022.
"I'm really pleased for him. His goal to games ratio is very high, I think it's obviously not Ross Allen's, but I think he'd be top three at least in that sense," Vance told BBC Radio Guernsey.
"When you consider his goals that he was scoring, most of them were in step four where we didn't attack much, we didn't get the opportunity to attack much, a lot of it was just hanging on for dear life in that level because we just weren't good enough.
"So he did well to score at that level, but now there's much more of a focus on him, on box entries, and being a striker if he's in that area.
"The thing about him is, whilst he's a big lad and very dangerous in the air and good with his head, he scores all types of goals as well.
"We're focussed on getting a lot of crosses in the box and he's benefitting from that."
