Well let’s hope the article is correct, that the Villa result being the nadir, and it’s all positive from here onwards.

Well lets see how we defend against Richie's corners/free kicks.

 

 

No surprise to see we don't make the list.

Oh well, at least we top 2 of the tables, second in the other. Impressive!

So 16 goals have come from crosses!!! I wonder how many of those 16 were headers. Seriously have some soft lads in this team.

Form in all competitions since 18th February (Leicester’s second to last European knockout game - A 0-0 draw at Slavia Prague)

43 games.

71 goals scored.

67 conceded.

18 wins.

10 draws.

15 defeats.

8 clean sheets in 43 games.

21 of these 43 games we conceded 2+ goals a game.

I think it comes down to aggression and desire to block that cross, head that ball out and beat the attacked and we just don't have that anymore for some reason.

[AKCJ]

Wonder if they're counting goals like those Southampton scored against us as set piece goals.

Really interesting read. But I’m quite alarmed that he basically says we don’t have time to train properly, because of fixture congestion the onus is on recovery.

 

I’m not sure our woes can be remedied by showing the players video footage either.
