Genuine question re: corners

[Scrug]

Have we scored from one under Carrick?

Haven’t looked remotely dangerous from them since Ayala left.

kinda begs the question why we dont go short rather than pumping it in

We do quite often

It is confusing when you consider just how many goals we’ve got from Giles whipping them in.

Yes, two I think

Mcnair scored recently. Although going back 4-5 years the stats are probably woeful.

We've had setplay 'specialist' in pulis and Warnock and failed to deliver. We also ruined Flint who was a setplay machine.

The last genuine threat we had was Ayala. I have no idea as to whether it's delivery or the person on the end of it? You look at our players and you'd presume we are a threat. We really aint

i meant always

french frank used to love scoring a header from a corner

 

[Badonde]

A weak point for us definitely. If we can crack it then goals await...

I know Barlaser was a corner taker for Rotherham but the few he has taken for boro he's put them straight to the keeper

Not just corners. Set pieces in general.

This link shows analysis on corners and goal success rate. It's really low and I don't know why teams persist with lumping it in.
