Did you not see the Maddison corner today that most definitely beat the first man!? .......and the second man, and every other player on the pitch and almost the linesman😆

It really made me laugh today when Maddison went over to take a corner and everyone was shouting as if to say 'come on let's get on with it' and he just put his thumb up and strolled over as if that moment was all about him being near the fans in that section  we're chasing a fcuking game man, just get the ball in!!

The weakness from set pieces has been a glaring weakness for 3 years. Unforgivable 

And yet he claims its only recently been an issue. That delusion is unforgivable and if he carries on with this arrogance and ignorance then he's destined for this slump to continue.

We really do have some thick players! There were a few corners where he was getting his Ben Marshall stroll on …. When we’re frikking losing 2-0!!! Madders …. We’re all waving u towards the fecking corner flag to hurry the feck up, not clapping you!!!!!! Reminded me of Chilwell in a game where he over ran a ball out for a goal kick and then kicked it up into the crowd when we were losing, so so thick!!!

That's bizarre isn't it? Who's he trying to kid? Anyone who watches us regularly and who actually has eyes can see it.

 

Hope your son enjoyed his day despite the shocking opening 20 mins and the result.

This pissed me off, I don’t think he was waving it seemed more like a sarcastic disingenuous clap of the hands because he maybe was annoyed fans was yelling at him to take the corner quicker. We had a corner moments later but he still took his time, this guy’s attitude this game stunk when I felt us fans second half was getting well behind the team. Didn’t understand that behaviour at all.

Just to make a point, if we park the point that Madders was wasting time walking to take

corners … his actual delivery was pretty decent today which made a nice change! The amount of headers Gabriel won and almost unchallenged was infuriating …. We actually

had decent delivery but we can’t attack the ball. It’s the same in our own box!!! We are genuinely pretty poor at set pieces I think.

He's pig ignorant, would never admit to something that questions his methods long term. Denial will keep him doing it as well, brilliant.

Does anybody know if we have a set piece specialist? If we do, I reckon we should be scrambling for a receipt. If we don't, I can't help but wonder why. Brendan alone can't solve this problem and it's clear the rest of the coaching staff aren't equipped to solve it, either. Also, considering his use of analytics to try and improve our game, I'm surprised the issue hasn't been raised with recruitment. With that being said, I'm with others in that we shouldn't be packing our own box with players when instead, we should be leaving a couple on the half way line. That's one simple but effective change, which means we likely won't see it.
