City appoint new set-piece coach

- Start date
I was amazed we were near the top for success at set pieces last season, I'm sure I read this somewhere unless I'm going senile in my old age lol.
We were the best in the league offensively and defensively by some way. For whatever reason they've changed the approach though and it's gone shite again.

Yes I thought I'd read that, didn't the set pieces coach responsible leave for another job? Our set pieces are like our penalties, no bloody use to us. I actually dread it when we get a penalty as I think we'll miss it. Once we signed Haaland I thought great, at last someone who can be relied on to score a penalty.....then he took that one on Saturday. Yes he scored but it was a terrible penalty and we got lucky. It's ridiculous nobody else is capable of taking a decent spot kick from twelve yards.

Terrible? It may not have been his best but it was hard enough to beat the goalie, I'm not sure what's lucky about that.Yes I thought I'd read that, didn't the set pieces coach responsible leave for another job?

It went in as he said himself, keeper should have saved it comfortably. We'll take it.

Jackie Wilson eh ??
I wonder if he might think that some of our players are "Reet Petite" when it comes to heading corners ??

Obviously, we're talking on the whole though.
