It's not even about the delivery. It pisses me off that no one sees that. We only have Vidic who really is a beast in the air, apart from that, since Ronaldo left, we don't really have any players that are outstanding in the air (probably Smalling)

Sign Andy Carroll
Whip balls in

We'll take 17 corners and no goals. Thank you.

That plays a part too. It's like some of our players think the ball will magically come to their heads. You have to attack the ball but attack it well.

I'd rather we take them all short and pass it back to the half way line keeping possession

Not as bad today...but how many get cut off by the first man??

That loss aside. When was the last time we scored from a corner?

Does anyone expect anything when we get a corner?

Fulham game (Nani's header) and the Wigan game (Valencia's shot) saw goals not quite directly from corners but close to it.

I dont expect anything from set pieces in general anymore.

Tis so fucking frustrating. Every ball is either too short too long or not enough pace on it to do any harm.

It's just surprising the media hasn't picked up on this issue. I bet the stats are shocking.

2red4U · 4th January 2012, 23:34

bring Beckham back

Minkaro · 4th January 2012, 23:43

I almost bit into my glass when I saw Ferdinand taking a corner.

Did Rio take one?

Not bad.

Very very good.

Snow · 27th January 2012, 17:32

His name is Jakup á Borg. Faroese is very funny to Icelanders. His name in Icelandic means Jacob in City. Really weird. Used to joke about it a lot when we were like 7 or 8. Our word for tackling is a word in Faroese that's said and spelled the same way but means ass fucking.

Sean_RedDevil · 12th February 2012, 16:12

We've scored after a corner

KanieKaned · 12th February 2012, 17:04

good to see even if its not often, were more of a second phase of play bunch the last while.

Amir · 12th February 2012, 20:35

A good delievery makes such a huge difference, doesn't it... Just put it at a dangerous spot. More often than not, we haven't.
