Set pieces
Views: 492
We aren’t creative enough to score buckets full of goals. Even little sandcastle sized buckets.
So naturally we should be nailing down set pieces and making them a weapon. But we’re fucking hopeless at those as well.
Why? We have 6 foot 5 Charlie Goode and Piergianni who is the best header of the ball I’ve ever seen at this level. And from memory we’ve scored from 1 fucking corner all season. It’s absolutely criminal. Why are we so bad from dead balls, is it something we even practice?

We don't get enough corners to worry about practicing them.

This is probably my biggest frustration of the entire season. We tend to do the same thing every single time - chip it to Piergianni for the diagonal knock down to Reid or whoever, and it hardly ever works. The delivery is too slow and it's so predictable. One of the few times we've done anything differently was against Crawley away, and that resulted in a goal, so why aren't we mixing it up a bit more? As you've said, we've got probably the best aerial threat in the league and give him absolutely zero opportunity to score

6 foot 5 Charlie Goode throwing it in the box too.
That gives me Harry Kane on corners for England vibes.

Should have got the Stockport manager to demonstrate a throw in
