Ok, I'll give it since Shaken is there. 123 corners since we last scored from one.

I'm surprised the number is that small, to be honest.  We're hopeless at corners, because it requires something we just don't have, which is someone who can actually jump and get their bonce on the incoming ball.  We don't even have that many people tall enough to get on the end of them.

We used to, but we let him go for nowt and replaced him with someone even older, and then someone much more expensive and not as good.

Seriously, we'd be better off drilling them into the box along the ground.

We've got a few tall defenders and some tall players like Yaya and Dzeko (who don't jump) but our delivery is awful most of the time.

Well, yes, there is that too.  Silva can't take a corner to save his life and Navas can't get them past the first man.  Milner doesn't nail them very often and Kolarov tends to overhit them.  Nasri is our best corner taker by an absolute mile and even his aren't much cop.  But when he does nail it, there's no Lescott to bundle them in.  Just Edin "white men can't jump" Dzeko and Yaya "neither can some black men" Toure.

But that wouldn't matter if we could get them into the danger area more regularly.  It's almost as though some teams see it over the goal line because they're safer from a corner than from anywhere else on the park.

Corners are one of the best chances to pressurise defences and we just don't take it. How many goals have we let in from our own corners since we last scored from one I wonder

Loads, I'll bet.  I think every other side in the PL has scored from a corner since we last did, too.

It really isn't that hard, is it?  Flood the box, make a nuisance of yourselves and wait for the ball to float in.  Or maybe nobody bothers because it'll go anywhere other than the area it'll cause the most problems because nobody can take one properly...

I'm predicting that we score 3 -5 goals as a result from corners if Bony is on the pitch from February onwards.

Why, is Bony going to be taking them?  Razz

But I agree, if we get Nasri popping some good corners in, we should see a few goals.  About time, too...
