Spurs Should Improve Set Pieces To Help Avoid Results Like West Brom Draw

[FootballWhispers]

Hi All

I noticed some of you guys chatting about whether Spurs need to score more 'ugly goals' via set pieces etc, so I've put together this article looking at Tottenham's record from set pieces this term, where they can improve, and how it will stand them in good stead against Leicester tomorrow.

Hope you enjoy it.

Our delivery from set pieces has been awful for a good year now.

Coincidentally the same amount of time Lamela has been out.

What happened to that corner solution consisting of a short initial pass and then a cross followed by a shot on goal? Am I mistaken in thinking it actually wasn't a total waste? Furthermore, why isn't Eriksen able to score from free kicks anymore?

Our set pieces are dreadful and have been for ages. It's 50/50 if a corner will clear the first man or not.

Maybe Kane should take them...

FOr years our set pieces have been shite. Considering Eriksen can hit such sweet, pinpoint freekicks (when shouting)his corners are ridiculously poor.
Feel we’ve missed Lamela a bit as his delivery was fairly reasonable and we scored a fair few corners and freekicks.
Having said that with the quality we have there really shouldn’t be any excuses for the woeful corners and freekicks into the box we have been seeing recently

Whilst I am not against us improving our set piece organisation and execution, to suggest this would have made much difference against West Brom is folly. The Baggies are probably the best drilled team in the league as far as scoring from and defending set pieces are concerned. For all his faults Pullis is a master of set piece organisation.
