Herd joined Aldershot in 2009 after four years with Shrewsbury

Aldershot Town defender Ben Herd says the side must start converting their dominance in games into goals.

The Shots have scored just four goals in League Two this season, and have drawn five of their seven matches.

Herd told BBC Surrey: "When you have so much possession in games you need to start putting the ball in the back of the net.

"We need to capitalise when we're on top and turn these draws into scrappy 1-0 wins," the 25-year-old added.

"We're missing chances which is probably a good thing because at least we're creating the chances in the first place.

"Some of the chances we've had have been gilt-edged. We need to make them count.

"I'm sure it will come. We'll persevere."

The Shots, who lie 14th in League Two, next travel to Stockport County on Saturday, 25 September.
