Corners (again)

[blueparrot]

it's just struck me (god knows why I never thought of it before) how utterly pointless it is, aimlessly firing a cross in, when we have a bunch of midgets and clueless headers of the ball in the box. I mean, what on earth is the point. It's no wonder we haven't scored a headed corner since 1902.

Think its struck Pep too, with the low corner last week and short corners yesterday.

The oldies on here will remember fondly Dave Watson. Now HE could head a ball. Nearly broke the crossbar every time he hit it.

Remember a bullet against Liverpool one game when we were chasing the title, it was harder than most volleys

Lovely. More of these please!

Seriously (very seriously) if I were Pep, I'd have Otamendi and Stones in special practice sessions week in, week out, until they get the hang of this. It's no use making great runs, getting up above defenders and then heading it into the stand EVERY FUCKING TIME, is it.

Precisely Karen. It's no exaggeration to say we'd have 1 league title less, had we not had Edin in the squad to make that header.

Didn't we score something like 4 goals in 5 games from corners at the start of last season?
