    Default Dead ball & set pieces

    If we had decent delivery and put away the opportunities they gave us we would have 6 points. When needed our delivery into the box is appalling.

    That is my only criticism as the team is new and needs a few games.

    lets see what the week brings us

    Any team could say the same thing..... Its so fucking obvious (and has been for years) that you wonder why nobody tries to change it.....as in sign a player who CAN cross the ball or CAN take a decent freekick.

    Takes time to gel. You can't expect the team to be working on set pieces when they have to spend all week introducing themselves to each other.

    They have Sun-Fri all day between games to practice set pieces, chat to their new team mates and train too. They get paid enough man

    Waghorn took some great corners for Liecester. He couldn't even get past the first man on Saturday. It's almost as if they don't want to throw it into the danger area.

    There was only Henderson who put a decent couple of balls in on sat, i.e. whipping them into the danger area all others were either very deep back post floated crosses or hitting the first man, even Zenden was guilty of this (tbf he done a lot when he came on compared to others like)
