Set Pieces

Thu Apr 12, 2018 6:01 am

Really missing Ralls and we lack a set-piece taker.

Not just the penalty misses the other day but in general we are lacking decent free-kick and corner takers since Ralls has been out.

Also, as someone said, the lack of quality to turn draws into wins and marginal losses into draws is now telling.

Taking nothing away from what we have achieved, but the Madine money looked like it would have been better spent on someone with a bit of guile / flair.

More like missing Whitts free kicks etc.
We’re missing Ralls no doubt but he’s far from a dead ball specialist unfortunately.

You're right but Ralls is the best we have... which is a sad indication of the lack of set-piece quality we have in the squad.

Would have been ideal to come on last 20 in both games

One thing for n Certain is that Bennett shouldnt be taking the free kicks or corners as his delivery is awful sooner Ralls is back the better
