[Albion] Set Pieces

[mejonaNO12 aka riskit]

FFS someone sort it out. Does anyone get excited when we get a corner, been like it for a while now.

Thought we did ok today except for the above.

I believe the PL average is normally around 4% of corners scored

So 96 times out of 100 you will be disappointed.

Sorry.

Well I'd take 4 in a hundred right now, wouldnt you

 

[Weststander]

Over 20% of PL goals this season come from set pieces excluding pens …. a PL stat.

What are we at the moment?

Statically this season we are one of the top performing clubs for scoring from set pieces. Only four teams have done better than us.

Glenn was very happy to point out that Palace are the highest scorers from set pieces this season so far and not Arsenal

 

[VAL1850]

If players concentrated on getting the corner right as much as they concentrate on placing the ball a fag papers width over the corner arc line we might begin to get somewhere approaching a half decent corner..

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

We've crap at corners & free kicks for years. Oh how I yearn for a "Watson, Zamora.....GOAL!!"

Against Port Vale.
Yeah! Woah!
Good times.

 

[The Wookiee]

From the little game time he had - Barco could take a good corner

Can't take 'em, can't defend 'em.

I maintain that Currie is the best set piece taker we’ve ever had.

True. There’s naan better than Currie.

Great paneer-lty taker.

Agreed That nonsense where they try to gain half an inch is embarrassing. They should concentrating on hitting it over the first man either to the middle of the goal or the back post. Bring back Kit Napier. He scored from his own corners.

 

[Albion my Albion]

No no no. We don't want facts.

Everyone else is always scoring from corners, all the time.

I left you in the corners of my mind
I erased you from my life
There's no in-betweens this time
Said, I lost you in the corners of my mind

 

[Swegulls]

Maybe they've got 'vexiphobia', a fear of flags? Can't be easy to take a corner then.

He took a mean inswinging korma as well.

Very good with both direct, and Indian-rect, free kicks.
