City appoint new set-piece coach

When there is a corner why are the majority of the players in the box why don’t they think out of the box and have no one in the penalty area!? What will that do the opposing players in the box with no one to mark or those who just marking space? Also the second daze is important if you win the cleared ball..

What would be the point of that? If we had no one in the box, we could never score from a corner, unless it was direct!
 
we scored so many from set pieces last year, like headers after corners/free kicks, not too many this time so far.
we need a bit of help maybe on that front, god appointment.

What would happen if all the players who are usually in the pen area are all outside in a group near the other pen area? I would like to see it just to see what the opponents do if that happened! Thinking out the box was when Kdb scored a free kick by hitting it under the wall when the wall jumped! No other team club has done that or did that!

A couple of others did the under the wall thing, now there’s a draft excluder.

What do you think would happen if we had no players in the box? We’d have to take a short corner, pass it back to the half way line and build up an attack from scratch, totally negating the corner.

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.

No you're right, we gave up 1 goal off a corner last year to Villa but we scored 17 from set pieces last year.

This year other than KDB's goal I can't think of another.. though Laporte usually gets goals from corners but he just recently came back into the team from his surgery.

One thing I've been impressed with recently is grealish's corners. They're on the money every time. Much better than the shite kdb and foden produce.

Was just about to praise Jack myself
I sit in block 211 and much prefer his corners to Kevin's CTID
