Corners!

Why do we even bother taking them?! Never score from them. In fact the opposition are more likely to score from our corners. Clearly highlights the need for a couple of big powerful lads in the the team.

should just take it short every time. Pointless. I think Kos is the only chance from scoring from them these days

Not just corners, even free-kicks. We are simply awful at set-pieces, probably one of the worst teams in the PL.

I agree godfather. We need to take short corners asa we It's just too easy for the opposition.

It's not as easy as saying "get some big, powerful lads in".

Yeah, OK, we could probably do with one in midfield, but aside from that you can't just replace the likes of Ramsey, Wilshere and Cazorla who's ability is derived from having a low centre of gravity making them very quick and sharp on the ball with hulks of players like Fellaini and expect us to keep the same style of play.

Wenger likes to CUT corners, that's the problem.

No point of us having corners.

Either play it short or just pass it back to the keeper

Not probably the worst. We are definantly the worst!

I can't remember the corner stats against Spurs (I think we had 15!), but during that game and indeed subsequent games, it has become abundantly clear that we do not value corner kicks as it is also obvious that we do not practice corner kick routines.

The quality of the corners is also a major concern. I am baffled that professional footballers can't consistently do a corner kick that beats the first man on the post. Wenger's training sessions must be one big jolly up!
