No beers tonight. I'm sipping on a small calvados to steady the nerves. Might poor one more to celebrate.

About time. One of my, and one of yours I think, biggest bugbears over the last couple of years that we didn’t pose much of a threat from the countless corners we get.

Maybe we have a set piece coach now? Certainly has earned his money if so as we also rarely concede from them as well

The ref is a coward. Why blow the whistle before the corner is taken to give a caution. Just let the corner be taken and give the pen for fuck's sake.

Have I missed something? Blows for a foul, gives a yellow but no penalty? How’s that work

At the moment our +/- stats at set pieces is the best in the prem era. Only one goal conceded and 18 scored (before this game).

We definitely do. Heard the commentators last week. I think it's the fella that sits next to Pep

Strange, but I think it’s because the ball isn’t in play.

We are the leading scorers at set pieces in the Prem.
