I don’t have any data, but besides Saliba’s goal vs Burnley I can’t remember when was the last time we scored from set piece. Many times Saka and Martinelli corners are cleared on the first post which is frustrating.
I have heard on some local tv praise for Arsenal’s set pieces and now read Kompany saying something similar about them being the best at it.
Based purely on eye test, I find West Ham way more dangerous. Ward-Prowse is perhaps the best set piece specialist and Soucek, Antonio, Zouma etc are real aerial threat.
Which team you find best in set pieces?
The high number of corners is a byproduct of being dangerous at corners. Being good at corners typically means winning more corners, because the opposition struggle to defend them and clear corners out for more.
Watch the games and you’ll see times where we take multiple corners in a row.
Hmm, I thought it’s more a byproduct of playing attacking football. Typically top 6 teams have more corners than other teams, but historically teams like Stoke and Burnley have been quiet dangerous through set pieces, because that used to be their main weapon.
