At the other end of the scale, Manchester City have the best corner conversion rate, having scored 15 goals from 207 corners this season. That means that 7.25% of their corners result in goals.
that is interesting, since before Johnno's arrival, I thought our corners were, in the main, shite

3 years ago i don't think we actually ever won the ball from a corner, never mind score an actual goal.

Also interesting to see that The Chief scored his first goal of this season in our 33rd game. And his first goal last season was also in the 33rd game.

The best corner conversion rate in the league, and more goals from set-pieces in general than any other team (25 and counting). Chelsea are 2nd with 23.

Don't forget it's both derby's in the Premier League, and Birmingham haven't been in the Premier League a great deal, so without checking, maybe Schmeichel didn't, as Brum might not have been in the Prem when he played for Villa. But I'm not sure. Just

Could be right, remember that famous cock-up by Enkelman in goal for Villa v Brum? So that means they didn't have Schmeichel for at least one of the seasons they were in the top fight.
