Every man & his dog have been able to see how poor they are for 2 seasons & there has been no improvement. Yet successive managers & coaches have allowed it to continue. Why should be the question

No one better? Need big men in middle. If we have no one a short corner before delivery would provide a different angle ang gets a defender out of the box.

On the subject of set pieces & taking defenders out of the box, but at our end IE defensive ones. Why on earth do we not try leaving someone like Elanga on the half way line, he doesn't offer much from a defensive point of view, but if we left him up the pitch to try to latch on to any clearance we might make it would mean the opposition would have to leave at least a couple of people back to cover him possibly more given his electric pace. That might give us the edge when defending

Yes, it's a basic piece of tactics but presumably Nuno can't be arsed to think about stuff like that.
 
im sure towards the end Coops did drag him off set pieces and we had players like toffs taking them, taking them better it must be said.
he prob takes them cos hes so useless in the box

didnt work when callum tried to dribble out recently and doesnt work when we dont win the ball in the first place. id be more inclined to line 7 of them along the goal-line :)

I'd rather we just kept everyone near the halfway line ready to kick off quickly when we inevitably concede from the corner.
 
He must be showing in training at least he's better than anyone else weve got at taking them

You would like to think??

Unless we are too scared to challenge him!

I don’t think the issue is his ability to deliver a ball, I think it’s the complete lack of guile in our set pieces that ruins us.
