Guest WarehamFox Posted 19 January 2019 Posted 19 January 2019 We seem to concede from them (zonal marking?) but cant score from them, how many do we need? It's becoming a joke. What do they do on the training ground? Great game shame about the result.
Tuna Posted 19 January 2019 Posted 19 January 2019 Amazing how England made Maguire such a threat from set pieces at the World Cup but we can't work out how to do it.
funkyrobot Posted 19 January 2019 Posted 19 January 2019 Fkin zonal marking I hate it. It doesn’t work.
Woodsey1727 Posted 19 January 2019 Posted 19 January 2019 With Pearson, Raniari and Shakespeare we used man marking and didn't concede that many from corners now under Puel we have changed to zonal and keeps conceding

Our corner defending all went to shit when Morgan was no longer allowed to pull shirts and wrestle people to the ground.

Leicester_Loyal Posted 19 January 2019 Posted 19 January 2019 To be fair we've hardly conceded from corners all season. Yes we lack threat from our own, but I don't think defending corners is our issue. I'm more worried about our defending from long range shots and when players are dribbling at us 25-30 yards out.

StanSP Posted 19 January 2019 Posted 19 January 2019 Pereira at fault for Bennett's goal. Let him run past him while he ball-watched and left Maguire to mark 2 players. Pereira didn't get the block on him properly and Maguire was left standing against a guy with a running jump. Poor defending.

Babylon Posted 19 January 2019 Posted 19 January 2019 4 hours ago, funkyrobot said: U being serious? Yes, we've barely conceded any since we switched things about. It's been mentioned on here countless times.
Guest Posted 19 January 2019 Posted 19 January 2019 Funny how if a team concedes using zonal marking then it's always the fault of the system. If they concede using man marking you don't start going on about how useless man marking is as a concept, you blame the individual defender. Why's it any different?
evil jack Posted 19 January 2019 Posted 19 January 2019 Under O’Neil we were unstoppable. ah the good old days.

Scored 19 in 16/17, 12 in 17/18 and scored 4 this season... the Mahrez factor perhaps? It's not like much else has changed other than perhaps the delivery?

There are now new rules for the corners preventing thug defending so the likes of Morgan can't do as they please anymore and we had this problem before Puel. We conceded only 5 goals from set pieces this season. Last season 15.

That's a very clear and undeniable improvement. We’re shit at corners. Last season we were (playing zonal) I agree and we will be this year. Standing jump against running jump there’s only one winner.

Standing jump against running jump there’s only one winner. We're far better at corners than we were when just man marking, the stats show that. Now that might be a case of it's also because we bring extra men back. But it's undeniable that there has been a significant improvement in our defending of them since we've made those changes.

We man to manned it 15/16 and I think overall we did ok that season

If we had Huth, Wes and Fuchs 3 or 4 years younger we might not have been in the state we were defending them. But they aren't and we were.

It's not like much else has changed other than perhaps the delivery? I don’t remember him assisting many tbh, maybe our previous routines aren’t as effective or we’re sounding less time on them. If anything we should be spending more time on them as we’re more likely to score from a corner than we are in open play in games like the Southampton one
