If they’re playing a high press, Izquierdo needs to play right up on the last man and give us the over the top option. Murray, with the best will in the world, won’t catch a long ball.

Very good corner, smart flick on at the near post from a pacy low cross, incredible header by Evans to be fair who has to dive and angle it in. Hands up when a good goal is a good goal.

Agree with this.

Just because a goal is scored from a corner it doesn't mean there was a defensive error.

Sometimes you just have say, "well played, good goal."

Every corner is a real risk for us.
Pathetic at defending .Who is supposed to be picking up their CBs?

We all know Mat Ryan has had a cracking season so far however is it any coincidence that our problems with conceding from set pieces has come with a Keeper that is let’s say on the small side, no confidence in him claiming the ball from corners etc thus putting extra pressure on the defence.

It's a fair question although the lickers will come for you for even asking.

Making a mistake is acceptable.

Making the same mistakes week in, week out is not.

Every team that pushes hard and gives us no time on the ball stands a good chance of beating us. This has been obvious for some time now.

That why we don't want any lack of pace against teams like that, yet he starts with Murray, meaning extra pressure on our midfield hence we have no time to be creative.

Conceding from corners = needless to say that it's tedious seeing this happen repeatedly
