You and bloody Hodgson's corners You must admit though that we have become ineffective from corners. It was one of our strengths.

Scott Dann has a real eye for goal which the likes of Sakho and Tompkins just haven’t shown. Bigger issue seems to be we don’t have much of a plan, with a couple of exceptions. Must be hundreds of corners have gone on in the last couple of seasons to little effect. The reason I sometimes mention Kane or corners is because it is a reminder that not every single thing which RH (or any human) does is right all of the time. I don’t agree with his usage of Meyer either, which is on another thread.
Trump lost. Badly. Hahahahahahaha. |

We play much better football under RH, maybe because we have better players now. Keep banging on about Kane taking corners, when it wasn't even for our team, seems a bit irrelevant. When Benteke starts taking corners, then you would have a point.

Anyway you are not wrong there when you state things are much easier on the eye these days. But as you said Pulis had a far inferior squad. One thing about Pulis was we could get absolutely battered then nick a 1-0. These days we often do the battering but don’t get what we deserve through poor finishing. Ironically Schlupp is not one of the culprits there and often takes his chances this year or makes something happen in the box. Edited by Maine Eagle (17 Feb 2019 3.29pm)

Teams facing us organised themselves to stop it and our football has altered accordingly with creating more opportunities through open play, mostly Benteke has failed with his heading and Dann almost killed himself against moan.c.

I'm struggling to think of the last time we scored from a corner.. Or how many we have scored from corners over the last couple of seasons.
Don't waste your time with jealousy. Sometimes your ahead, sometimes your behind, the race is long. But in the end it's only with yourself!! |

..not Hodgson's fault. In away it is, he must notice we don't score from corners, A/ because the corner kicks are terrible, B/ seems like there isn't any plan with the players in the box, (that just might be the poor corner kicks though,)if he can't sort it out he should hire a defensive coach.
