    That is some horrible defending right there.... Every football player has learned since they start playing football, that you need players at the first and last post, at least that's what we always did here in Norway. F**k me, stupid set piece defending that.

      I’ve seen players not do that many times. And if a corner kick resulted in a goal, it was very likely that players were missing from the posts.

          By thar logic every return is lucky, no? We're "lucky" to have players that get goals or assists, whether it's someone like Saliba or someone like Haaland
