    The wide men since around game 5 have been absymil and the midfield 3 just don't do enough offensively to make us get up the field and create chances. Don't get me going about the lack of goals and threat from Esteve and the other mon on corners. We literally look like we are going to conceed against the top sides from our own corners, it's embarrassing and needs addressing
    We reportedly brought in a specialist set-piece coach to sort out the defensive and offensive action on corners. I wonder if we are actually paying him?

    You can have the best coaches in the world, but if you don't have the personal to execute the orders, it's a waste of money

    Being able to clear the first man at a corner would help.

    Florentino. Watched him a few times now and he offers little, wins the odd ball and then can't wait to get rid with a simple square short pass. To be successful at this level you have to have far more in your locker. Ugochukwu is another but a far more talented player than Florentino who is wasted at Burnley. Parker doesn't know how to get a tune out of him

    Parker couldn't get a tune out of my harmonica.
