jomaco Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Let's hope the hands in air thing was to distract from an attempted corner to the near post... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

handworth52 Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 we have been woeful with corners since Wallace. thought bannan was bad with corners all is forgiven after Saturday ,easily the worst set of corners ive ever seen from us ,all were appalling even 2nd half when he was removed from corner duty it didn't get better.

sweetsheri Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 The biggest crime is the fact that after the first 3 or 4 we carried on allowing him to take them?... WTF! Where is the leadership on the pitch. We just aren't a threat from corners. Might as well not bother tekkin em Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I felt sorry for player when crowd was having a go at him. I didn't feel sorry for Pelupessy on Saturday though, he must have had about 8 attempts with corners in first half and I think only one got past first Blackburn defender.

There was the one that he booted out the far side of the box too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owl 44 Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 5 hours ago, areNOTwhatTHEYseem said: I don't understand how Pelupessy was put in a position where he had the opportunity to hit so many poor corners. Surely after a couple of stinkers, the manager would take the pressure off him and tell someone else to have a go. Fox, Reach, Lee and Harris can all deliver a decent cross, so to leave Pelupessy getting more and more anxious about it with each mis-hit delivery seems a bit odd. Was trying to think on Saturday who actually does take corners other than Bannan normally. Sure I've seen Reach take a few but other than that? Don't think I've ever seen Hutch take one before. Forestieri has taken some but they should really train a few more up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WTF they do in training is beyond me, because they certainly don't work on set pieces. And the worst thing about it is that it's been like this for years. Totally inexcusable for a professional football team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
83owl Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Not sure why Harris doesn’t take them. Shown at Cardiff he can take a set peice, put a few decent crosses in this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acquiescefc Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Anyone listening to the Blackburn commentary on Saturday. One quoted the worst corner he'd ever seen and if JP ever captained the Dutch to a world Cup win he would still remember that corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vulva Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Morgan Fox should take corners. Us getting corners is like getting a corner at 5-a-side. It’s actually counterproductive and puts the opposition in a stronger position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buxtongent Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 In all fairness to the player, and I may be completely wrong, but THAT corner, shown there, could very easily have led to a goal at the near post, and looked like a practised move that didn't come off ,to me That said, I agree with most posters on here that WE BADLY NEED A DEAD BALL KICKER. And that certainly isn't Bannan, who's corners are little better than Pessys. Same with throw-ins. It is a problem NOT with whoever is throwing the ball, but with the fact that he seldom has a player to whom he can throw it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are hardly taking Gerd Muller out of the action here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
