its a big pet hate for me in recent weeks.
i know CL might be anxious at set pieces and want more back to defend but i dont see any sort of benefit to united tbh!

if mikkelson is on bring him back for height but if we're bringing back guys like mcmullan, smith or king, do they really want to defend? unlikely. ICT goal from a corner came from Smith marking someone who wanted to win the header more than him. so whats the point in bringing these guys back if they aren't committed to defending?

the one thing i liked that jackie mac done was leave 2 guys up at corners (normally guys like dow and gms). it seems to make more sense. means the other team will need to leave 3 back instead of having only 1 back the way we play just now. Thats 2 extra players in and around our box?!?! it just invites pressure.

leaving king/mcmullan/smith up gives us an out ball if the keeper gets the ball or if the ball is cleared. also means he could put pressure straight away from our cleared ball.
