Please tell me why we don't work on them Garry. I would love to know the reason.
Both Norwich and Crystal Palace scored from a corner to help them get favourable results against Liverpool at Anfield.
Please tell me why none of the back 4 managed to get a goal LAST season, and still why none have scored this season. Especially when we are struggling to score from open play at the moment.
Garry, please don't suggest our lack of height is the reason why because I can show you a couple of corner routines to get around this if you need help.
Thnaks. |  |

We are definitely going to need to score some goals from set-pieces to turn this around. | | | |

corners are now a standing joke, Mrs MJ and I have that gallows humour about them, all that wasted energy running up to the box by the defenders and jostling...no point...no-one go up, just the corner taker and kick the ball politely over the goal line and then wait for the opposition to come at us, least all the defenders will be fresher not having had to run up and back down the pitch and be set in formation. I also think it would surprise the opposition too, unlike our actual corners which are no surprise to anyone. |  |

The back four? I'd be more concerned that our strikers haven't scored for 3 months! | | | |

I have a cunning plan... The 4 defenders all stay back and send Fab up for corners. A different coloured shirt might cause all sorts of confusion and result in an own goal. That’s about the best we can hope for — worked against Spurs, albeit Fab was not actually up for that one. | |

Next time we have a corner, put one in the box and the rest 5 yds outside the area. Confuse the feck out of the opposition. Who knows it cant be any worse. |  | | |

I don't think i remember any time in the last 20 years that we have been good at corners, Maybe when big Den Lawrence used to get some goals but its never been a successful part of our game. | |

What I'm implying is that it's a waste of time sending any of our CB's up for them . They never get NEAR the ball | |

Maybe the players are too thick and not good enough to execute the long hours spent on them ?
Or maybe the coaching team and manager are not good enough ? | |

They may not be great, but look on the bright side, at least we arent doing that rediculous corner routine we used to do under Sousa |  |

It's not just not scoring, we've conceded 3 (maybe more?) from break aways from our corners / attacking set pieces, so maybe better off not sending defenders up. Ferds has come close a couple of times but Ash seems to get in the way more than create in the box and then struggles to get back. Don't bother crossing, play it short keep our shape. |  | | |

its not just corners its free kicks as well got no set piece moves like short ones or a free kick where its just either shoot or knock it in mixer no variety in our set pieces the coaches must have no idea what so ever,i played semi proffesianal 20 years ago and we worked on so many different free kick variations and a few corners,its just every time we get a corner its just put it in mixer and free kicks the same, or get a shot off coaches must have no idea | | | |

Oliveira against Newcastle was the last one and there has been others before that. | | | |

Pretty dull to have Shelvey or Siggy taking corners , they're the two we need at the edge of the box. Let Williams take the corners as its pointless him attacking them |  |

Towards the end of the game we had a free kick over on the left and a few corners, the free kick was taken by a right footed player which ended up in the arms of the keeper and for the corners the same. Herbie was a postman perhaps he could deliver better crosses ? |  |

The only player who looks anything like capable of scoring from a corner is Fernandez, and he's fallen out of favour for whatever reason. I honestly don't see why Ash carried on going up for them, as much as I love Ash, he's a liability in the opposition box, couldn't score in a brothel. |  | | |

Someone told me that generally there is one goal scored every 47 corners taken.
On that basis, corner = best time to go to the toilet or put the kettle on. |  | | |
