    Set pieces

    Why are ours so consistently s hit??

    The only time Swansea's defence looked comfortable today was when we had a bloody corner!
    2011-2013, 2 seasons in the Premiership, 76 games, 14 wins........two years of my life I'll never get back!!

    2013/2014 mediocrity topped off with a win at Wembley....

    2014/2015 was pretty much the same as 2011-2013.....

    2015/2016, average at best.....

    2016/2017, same old, same old....

    2017/2018, aim low, avoid disappointment!

    Its the hope that kills you!

    Were at a disadvantage as we always give them away and are then on the defensive.

        Our set pieces are very poor, the amount of these oppurtunities we waste are criminal at this level and something that needs to improve drastically!

          We can't practice set-pieces or crossing.

            We need to be good in taking free kicks as Taarabt will get us fouls near the box

                50% of goals in the Premiership come from a set piece. We have scored one this season. A pen against the filth.

                  Is a penalty a set piece ?

                  I thought set pieces were free kicks and corners.

                    Traore is the the best crosser of the ball by a mile, 90% of the time they're dangerous. I know dead balls are different but how come he never gets to take a corner?

                        A pen is still classed as a set piece. A set piece is from a dead ball.

                          Shame he can't defend!

                            Is the kick off and a goal kick a set piece ?

                              Yep, but very rarely are goals scored from those situations.
