Sorry but making a thread on it
Our attacking set pieces are nothing short of an utter disgrace. Had 5 corners and they were all a joke.
It’s in the territory of unprofessional and amateur. Not a single one of our 11 players capable of putting a static football into a penalty area and beyond the first defender. It’s fucking pathetic and embarrasing at any level, let alone premier league.
If we’re not floating some shitty ball into the keepers arms, we’re taking it short without a single thought as to how to actually get the ball to our players once we take it or chipping it to man on the near post every. Single. Time .
They’re consistently awful and I can’t remember the last time somebody put an actual decent corner in for somebody to attack.
just as bad with free kicks and Anderson, MGW and whoever else should be embarrassed. It’s a serious deficiency in our game and it’s summed up by their winner - dangerous crosses all afternoon that were dealt with well.. until they weren’t. I said in another thread how much of a miss not having somebody at can hit a ball from 20 yards to win us a game and this result amplified exactly that with Cherki.
Not sure what the answer is as I’d expect all 11 professional footballers to be able to kick a ball into a box and to be able to shoot from 20 yards, but apparently not with any of our 8 or so attacking players in the squad
