A game like today when we've been generally poor in open play and created nothing, set pieces gives us an opportunity to get something from a game. Time and again the delivery is abysmal.

Evans is an outstanding dead ball taker, and today we simply didn’t have anyone even close to his level to replicate them.

Celina on FK duty, he’s no Evans

Celina's end product ws dire today. He looks so good on the ball sometimes as well. Frustrating.

Even some of his in the past have been of poor quality

They do say % wise it's quite low how successful teams are from corners. But our deliveries drop that % even more, they are just awful. Celina's today weren't great, but I don't who else could have stepped up for them.

Can't remember the last one we scored from.
We really need to find a "playing the percentages" mode for days like today, where virtually nothing we try comes off. There were very few early crosses or shots from distance, very little that we just try and put in the mixer. That's fine if your forward's interplay is clicking or even if the opposition is claiming a lot of the ball and territory and you want a bit more control.

When you've got 65% percentage and all you're doing with it is setting yourself up for a counter attack? Nah, work an angle, get it in the area as quick as you can, force them to defend and face their own goal.

Of course delivery is massively important but it is also our lack of movement and players don't attack the ball with real intent. They are static hoping it might literally hit them!

outstanding is a huge exaggeration - he isn't bad, particularly his angled free kicks into the box, but his corners are definitely not outstanding...

He's the most capable of putting in a decent delivery in the squad but he's far from outstanding.

Just because I don't care doesn't mean I don't understand.
