| Defending corners 11:20 - May 11 with 810 views | britbiker | What has happened to the old style of defending a corner by actually looking at where the ball is being delivered. How many times this season have we had players grabbing attackers around the waist whilst facing away from the ball rather than watching where the ball is going. How on earth are you supposed to defend a second ball in if your not even watching where the ball is going. Won't miss this in the Prem'. Hope we do better next year. |  | | |  |
| Defending corners on 14:03 - May 11 with 622 views | Garv | Surely this isn't a premier league problem? There's obviously a reason teams do it. I don't know how you stop it either, the attackers hold all the cards because they can grapple all they want - the worst case scenario is you give away a free kick, best case is making it look like you've been fouled yourself and you get a penalty. That's why I don't want to see penalties given for it. |  |
