Just knock the fucker into the box and attack it. We are utter shite at corners and we must improve if we are to be successful.

Simple as having a shit. We're usually fucking constipated unfortunately.


Sounds like a basic form of Route 1 that to me or something you would see the Dog and Duck playing.
And I don't think it happens as often as you say.


So crossig the ball is pub football ? Better tell Kaka & Ronaldo, they did it more than the rags yesterday.


Whats the difference between the picture you painted and Joe hoofing out of the box,Edin heading it down and Carlos thumping it in.What I've described is known as Route 1 what you described is the same over a shorter distance

Beckham was pretty good at corners, as was Henry.

there IS an art to corners. A tough one to master for sure - in fact, in my lifetime I can't remember a city player who was great at it.

And sometimes you need to do that to score. Look how many goals United get from set pieces. Champions League final 99?
We are no danger when attacking set pieces and it has to change.

There we go. Cross into the box and a header. EASY EASY EASY. Why don't we do it more often?

Mancini out ;)
In all seriousness though Vieira has proved today if we are in need of a goal he could be agood option as he is very dangerous from set pieces. Not good enough to start though.
