We just stand still. No one attacks the keeper, and our delivery is generally really bad. Need a Beckham like corner specialist. Eriksen is not it.

We should sign Peter Whittingham from Cardiff........his delivery from corners is spot on........I know its the same for both sides but have you noticed how restrictive the space players have when taking corners at the Lane and how the pitch slopes down to the corner ,Eriksen needs a rugby tee of sorts to get any sort of flight on the ball and power because his corners hit the first man nearly all the time.
You wonder sometimes why don't they practice corners and free kicks at the staduim rather than at the training ground.

In my life time we have never been any good at taking or defending corners. Barring the odd goal once in a blue moon, most of the corners don't clear the near post, and those that do are generally headed away unchallenged. For the sheer number of technically gifted players we've had over the years, it is simply staggering how inept the majority have been at taking corners. It is equally staggering how many giant players we've had who don't get anywhere near winning a header from a corner. When we get a corner we may as well kick it behind to let their keeper have a goal kick so we can regroup and not get hit on the break

Exactly. For those who have never taken a corner, do you appreciate how difficult it is to put it on someone's head when there is no movement and our players are standing on the six yard line? Damn near impossible to get it between the goalie and defenders, if they are set up right. Clever movement is essential.

Usually always does. Sorry that he isn't perfect.

i demand perfection goddammit, how hard can it be, if Levy just gave him more money he'd practice harder, its all AVB's fault

Levy appointed AVB, so isn't it technically his fault?

From what I've seen at Spurs that is a really, really, really hard thing to do. Sometimes they are mean and jump and stop the ball going into the penalty area.

Hopefully we can score a 3rd goal from a corner before the end of the season so that our conversion rate gets up above 1%...

Yeah there's been some discussion on other threads about the stark contrast in quality between Eriksen's FKs and his corners.
Both Lamela and Paulinho seem to strike a better corner so you'd think our Christian could instead be assigned to stand somewhere around the edge of the box for the chance to put away any scraps that might come his way.
