Football Set piece goals

[Gladitsfriday]

So many teams are now relying on set pieces be it corners free kicks or throwing's .Watching Arsenal and Chelsea Sunday this was certainly the case all three goals came from corners ,these two teams have a multitude of talent to pull from yet they run out of ideas to break down the defence in front of them .Yes football is making the most of any advantage you have but surely when you pay to watch a game of football you should expect to be entertained not hope your team can take a decent corner .Further more WWF moves during set pieces is laughable holding pushing obstructing seldom punished and there doesn't seem to be any end to it.Having said that if we score a 96th minute winner Saturday I'll be more than happy

I don't pay much attention to any league Cardiff isn't in. Is that what's going on in the Prem? Majority set piece goals? That sounds a bit grim for the greatest league in the world TM

27.5% of goals in the prem have been from set piece goals (excluding pens). Arsenal who are top have brought back long throws and playing for corners

Warnock way ahead of his time

There wouldn’t be half as many set piece goals, especially from Arsenal, if the refs done something about the constant holding in the box, it’s so clear yet they ignore it

It's my pet hate along with shirt pulling.
Don't know why they don't wear skin tight shirts that can't be pulled easily
