Mattock's corners are ok & Maghoma did well at Boro & has hardly taken any since. My point is get in front of the first defender & flick it on. The defenders are all on their heels and our players are ready to race in & score.
Seems like we did this v Ipswich & it worked, Surprise Surprise!
Above in bold is the key statement! Our improvement on set pieces last night seemed to be due to a change in who was taking them!! Maguire has been awful for a while on the whole with set pieces so it was very refreshing to see Mags taking a more prominent role. Now we just need to get the other players in tune with what he can do with a set piece and see them attack the ball and spaces better!! And of course in Nuhiu's case, stay onside!!!!!
