Some players are finding throw in's an issue at the moment...getting corners right would be a miracle!

We don't have a technically gifted side. Athletes yes. Gifted no.

Never really understood why the near post flick on went out of fashion, it seemed to cause chaos.

Thank you Jhawk. I knew I wasn’t mistaken. It was a travesty as he wasn’t affecting the play yet when VvD cleared out Schlupp before their winner it was waved through.

Sorry to burst bubble but that was a free kick.

 


Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!

Very correct, corners are very silly to get excited about, you are very vulnerable on the break instead.

Willow, that is just crazy and so spooky that your ‘recollection’ matches exactly the stats on that one of a kind, easy to find Page 1 on Google but very little since article from 2017...even down to the decimal places on the percentage points...remarkable!

Interesting article from the Telegraph from a couple of years ago. Explaining the demise of scoring from corners and indeed the inefficiency of crosses generally, especially at Premier League level with well drilled defences.

Also claims you are statistically more likely to score from a short corner.

This is the same percentage I read on a website a while ago - that probably why I never get excited when we get one

I believe that 4% (one in twenty -five) of corners results In a goal,clearly we are under quota.

We've scored one I think. November I reckon. But it was a shock


We haven't scored from one in the league all season. Between 2014/5 to 2016/7 we scored 26 in three seasons. They basically kept us in the top flight

Before the season began I suggested we signed Beth Mead as she was a much better deliverer of dead balls than any of our male performers. Yet to be proved wrong
