We lack height and physicality at set pieces. Been murder in defending and attacking situations. Agree it needs addressing.
Agreed. It seems most goals we concede are easily prevented.Our defending in general is an embarrassment
On the following corner they decided to just not bother marking McGuire and he was completely free in the 6 yard box.Yilmaz marking Harry Maguire for a corner is one of the funniest things I have ever seen on a football pitch.
We also got good contributions from Aribo & Alfie when defending corners.We have a team of wee boys in terms of physicality.
First thing Gerrard did was sign two 6'4 centre halves. Feels like we could do with a similar signing policy just now.
thats the problem mate ,the three you mentioned are constantly sitting in the stand.Watching the highlights back and it's frightening the amount of their chances came from either a corner or a set piece. We lack height and physicality all over the pitch. Guys like Souttar, Sterling and Balogun would help a bit but we need more than that.
But but but statistically you don’t score from them
Arguments to suit people. Only one way eh
Simple dreadful at defending them dreadful at taking them
It’s scary how poor ww are at basic defendingIt's honestly embarrassing, and there should be a couple more where we have got away with soft fouls

When he jumps he is 5’8”! He is weak and they targeted him after his Motherwell error. Shots are also going through him far too often. Add a first choice goalkeeper to our summer list. He needs sold. Kelly for rest of season for me.Hard to believe Butland is 6'5" when you see the state of him at corners.
There's a fine line between anxiety and excitement.
When we win a corner I don't get excited.
When we face a corner I get anxiety.
He needs punted that's if there are any takers.It feels like we've been all over the place since December, even when we haven't been conceding. Butland is like a spasmodic tarantula when the ball is put on top of him.
Absolutely crazy.Yilmaz marking Harry Maguire for a corner is one of the funniest things I have ever seen on a football pitch.
This is a lot of the problems, when you have Raskin, Barron and Ridvan defending them you're going to have problems, ffs they look like wee boys in amongst giantsWe lack height and physicality at set pieces. Been murder in defending and attacking situations. Agree it needs addressing.
Not just that, against Hibs they put one of their thugs right in friend of Kelly, with no intent to play the ball or jump - just to stop Kelly moving. And it worked, Kelly couldn’t get to it properly and they scored. It’s obstruction, of course, not that Scottish refs are interested. No doubt other teams will do same.We defend these things with zero aggression. And it absolutely blows my mind that we allow attackers to physically get right up against and push around our goalkeeper every single time.
honestly baffling how much of a bomb scare he is at crosses now. I can remember the first few games after he joined, I was delighted that after mcgregor's decline we had a keeper that could actually move off his line and dominate his 6 yard box at crosses. I'm wondering if I just imagined it, because it's hard to believe how much he's regressed.Hard to believe Butland is 6'5" when you see the state of him at corners.

Clement, speaking at a news conference in quotes reported by the Rangers Review, said when asked if he would employ a set-piece coach: “No, because I love set pieces and that is a thing of the past but is also a reason, I think I played a lot of games as I scored a lot of goals from set pieces so I will not give away that part.”
