Infact I think statically zonal marking actually has lower goal and chance concession rates than man to man (it's only when it goes wrong with zonal it gets more attention hence people assuming otherwise) so if that trend continues here switching to man to man will only make things worse. If we want to truly improve our set piece woes we have to work on not conceding them in the first place. It cant possibly get worse than what we are seeing now......we are constantly letting goals in that way. At least be close to your man and stop his momentum or something. Whatever it may be, Lamps has to focus on it man. Overall im happy what im seeing, sure as fuck beats the hell we saw under Sarri. We can only grow and get better......but ffs sort this issue out, every bloody team now know we suck at set pieces, they will target it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
