Shit set pieces yet again from him yet we keep on letting him every single time. He gave away the corner in the first place on the second. Piss poor defending.

joeyt Posted May 13, 2023 Share Posted May 13, 2023 I don't really have a problem with our corners because I think more often than not Trippier puts in a decent or inventive ball into the box away from the keeper to try and create a chance But the free kicks we get where we just aimlessly lump it forward are abysmal. We may as well just play them all short and keep posession as we pose zero threat from them It must be a tactical decision to do it so I don't think it's Trippier's fault in the main but it's baffling why we keep doing it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need a Laurent Robert topspin special to mix things up. Yep, they are generally accurate - which will no doubt up the chance created stuff - he puts in loads of crosses. But there are very few I’ve seen where I thought ‘we need to be attacking that better / we should have buried that’. None are whipped in with real venom or pace to make a defender’s life a nightmare. They all get semi-floated to the penalty spot Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty66 Posted May 13, 2023 Share Posted May 13, 2023 (edited) Just don't understand what happened from early in the season when we were doing loads of different variations on corners especially, catching teams out a lot of the time. It often involved Tripps and Miggy, but now we hardly try anything like that. Think we tried it once today but first time I've seen it for months.

We tried it a few times today, one awful attempt when Trippier tried to pass it to Isak and passed it straight to them, one where Miggy and Trippier linked up nicely and another second half which was shit. The problem with it is it's so obvious it's always going to Trippier, I'd like us to mix it up a bit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
huss9 Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 he got that freekick at the end of the leeds game - edge of their box. 6 months ago we would have been celebrating before he even took it. saturday we all knew it would end up as fuck all. should have let schar take it. it really was a poor attempt.

Beth Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 About time we had a clean sheet tonight. If we manage to only concede one more goal in our last three games we'll beat our record for least league goals conceeded in a season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
