G STAR RAM Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 We heard you the first time. "Good teams should have bad set pieces." You're barking up the wrong tree, brother. Just let it go. I am sure Mac will address this glaring problem, pronto. What makes you think that? Has the situation not been the same for the year he has been in charge?

Tombo Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 We can't score them, we can't defend them... Basically, we'd be better off with street football - no fouls or set pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rampage Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 About time Simmo showed some of our players how to take corners and free kicks in my opinion. Some players would benefit from an hour after training, working on some key skills. Alan Ashman a manager of Carlisle United signed Hugh McIlmoyle from Leicester City and he was great with his right foot. He used his left foot for standing on. Alan got him doing left foot shots for an hour every night after training. One season later he was as good with his left as with his right. Our players are on three and four year contracts. Obvious incentive. get better, get more money. Simples. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BondJovi Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Nothing like 4 clean sheets in a row to breed confidence....but apparently that means we can't defend set pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mills_DCFC Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 If we could score from corners, we'd be unstoppable. and in the Premier League Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papahet Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Why doesn't Martin get free kick duties more often? Scored against Bournemouth last season and hit the post against them this. He scored a fair amount for Norwich too from free kicks www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sffpvq01-VM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashz09 Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 I said this last month I think and was the same last season. We must be the worst team for free kicks and corners. I liked the idea last game with passing to Ibe seemed to work better then usual. We need to sort this out for games which are hard thought as we had quite a few last game.

Ilsonram12 Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Martins free kick was decent vs bournemouth, could he do corners? Or would that nullify our attack, strange discussion when we play with attacking play of a front 3, ward should definatly leave them corners alone though, Forsyth could be worth a shout?

Yeah I wouldn't mind seeing Forsyth give it a go.Someone on this has to have some skill with them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alph Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Thought I'd drop this in herehttp://benjaminpugsley.wordpress.com/2013/04/26/corners-goals-from-corners-in-the-premier-league/ A goal every 32 corners in the PL in 2012/13. All teams except Man United scored just 5% or less of their corners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
