[Albion] 81 corners

[kevo]

...in the EPL so far this season. Not scored from any of 'em.

Thought this was going to be a thread about the Man U v Leeds game.

What's the average of goals per corner across the division?


I did find myself today rather exasperatedly and rather too loudly saying:-

'Why are you lot cheering and applauding'

As yet another corner was awarded.

Not sure. I would imagine the average must be about 1 in 15, maybe 1 in 20? You'd certainly expect at least 2 or 3 from 81.

We're going for 100

You'd have expected one to have just shinned off someone and ended up in the net somehow.

I thought this. You’d think the chance to whip a ball into the box uncontested would be helpful...

Maybe they should keep a running total at the training ground to try and gee them up a bit

Webster & Dunk miss so many chances from them. Don't think we can blame the crossing.

Dunk used to be a beast in the box. What happened??

It really is extraordinary. It's like they want to miss. I would argue we are finally getting some decent corners put in now but our big defenders have to do better - for me its actually more glaring than the striker problem. If we had scored from just 2 or 3 corners this season would have been very different.

I'd be amazed if your first point I even remotely close.
But I do agree with your second.

The delivery has been terrific in the last three games.

At least 10 clear chances for Webster and Dunk. I think a keeper made a save once.

Not good enough

 

[portlock seagull]

1:50 is typical. However, I’d be interested to see how many have actually tested their keeper

 

[GloryDays]

We’ve been here before. Have been shocking from corners for years.

If a side had 20 corners in a match, you'd expect one to result in a goal.

Probably fair to point out that Dunk's goal against Man U was from a corner.

Solly took it short, It was worked into the middle. Dunk tackled it in.

I know what you're saying though, direct from a corner

 

[dazzer6666]

We were joking during the game about the stats every time we got a corner....actually thought it was higher TBH.....

I found myself groaning today when we got awarded a corner.

That was against Arsenal last season.

Youre thinking of Duffy. Dunk has never been that great as an attacking header of the ball

I know, lets put Webster behind Dunk in a line and just hope for the best...... it hasnt worked the last 80 times surely the law of averages will turn soon!
