Isn’t it more based on the fact that we get more corners than everyone else and concede fewer? I think our %, certainly offensively, has always been fairly shocking.
Id guess you are dead right. People often defend our overall poor set pieces with the argument we have the best record etc but it's really just a numbers thing.

Ok Dom, thanks for clearing that up in your usual none antagonist way for which we’ve all grown to love you for.Believe it or not statisticians are able to account for things like...the total number of corners.
Last season City ranked highest in the league for goals conceded per corner, and goals conceded per other set piece, as well as goals scored per corner
It's in the article @Pingu the Penguin posted above.
To my knowledge I’ve never met you but I do get the feeling you go out of your way to try to belittle people, presumably because you think it makes you look clever? I could, of course, be wrong in that assertion and I apologise if I am.Believe it or not statisticians are able to account for things like...the total number of corners.

I struggle to think of any other reason you’d use a phrase like ”believe it or not.” Not only that but you then link an article posted after my comment and then, worst of all really, you edit my post as you reply to it. Still, if it makes you happy, crack on…..
I have dreams like that and wake up in a pool of piss :-(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.
