Big Col Posted December 1, 2013 Report Share Posted December 1, 2013 Since we're struggling to score from open play, set pieces are our only real chance to get a goal, but it looks like there is little imagination at free kicks or corners. From our few corners today we did not win one header. Delivery was poor. Free kicks were honking. Who is meant to be our best bet at set pieces?

Members Willjag Posted December 1, 2013 Members Report Share Posted December 1, 2013 At least the corners were beating the defender at the front post this week. Seemed to drop right in the centre of goal with no Jags players around. Every second ball fell to a Dons player today as well. When your luck's out, your luck's out!

ClydebankJag Posted December 1, 2013 Report Share Posted December 1, 2013 Sadly the lack of aerial presence that causes us problems when defending set pieces is also our undoing when we have attacking set plays. As has been said above the balls in from corners were getting past the first man so it wasn't a delivery problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we don't attack the ball enough in the box. Take a chance. A wee bit more anticipation even if you look foolish as often as not. Just as alarming is the ease our attacking set pieces can end up causing us bother at the other end. Dundee Utd have exploited the counter very effectively but they're far from alone.

p12tfc Posted December 1, 2013 Report Share Posted December 1, 2013 Last year was just a blip . For as long as I can remember we have been terrible at scoring from corners but concede plenty from ones we are defending Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noel Edmonds Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 Forbes has been putting in some excellent set pieces, and did so again today on numerous occasions. We just have no one willing or intelligent enough to attack them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
