Talk about quality set pieces.

The deliver of the dead ball was superb coupled with some excellent and varied movement before delivery - very very hard to defend but moreover, proving extremely good for goals.

Call their bluff and stick 4 players on the halfway line.

Would have thought the way to counteract what Arsenal were doing is to put a block of an equal amount to Arsenal against the far post preventing them from running towards goal. The goalkeeper should deal with anything swinging into the goalmouth. I would think that they would rethink their corner taking therefore it would mean adapting to their changes.

Yeah, by my addled memory, Arse could have scored another 2 or 3 from near misses at corners too. Fingers crossed they take the title this year.

From what I've seen, majority of Keepers have been stood on their line, surely you would get your keeper to come out to the edge of the 6 yrd box, so any floating balls can be easily reclaimed.

Would imagine Muric would have no issues with doing this.

I was at the Emirates last night and whilst the movement was very impressive the defending from United was comedic.

Every corner they all stood in allocated areas of the six yard box regardless of what the Arsenal players did. After the 5th time it didn't work you would assume the manager would tell them to try man to man if something.

They could easily have conceded 4 from corners in just the second half.

I feel like our set pieces (offensive) have actually been poorer this season, despite employing a dedicated set piece coach.

We're playing teams levels above now though, so difficult to measure objectively.

If you did this Saka would just bang it in the net at the far post direct from the corner.

Arsenal are clearly good at these set pieces and have decent players to attack the ball.

But Man Utd's zonal marking was atrocious. so easy for Arsenal to get their "blocks" in to leave certain players free. LEts hope we learn something from that.

I think I remember Lambert doing it with three players.

The delivery is great but they also seem to have several players that know how to attack the ball properly. Sounds really basic but simply being big doesn't necessarily mean you are an attacking threat. Burgess is case in point for me, seems to have the defensive art of heading nailed but looks pretty hopeless in an attacking sense. Gabriel is an absolute beast, attacks the ball with such conviction.
