Think the problem with training the team how to defend and attack corners is pretty simple. We don't seem to have anyone that can actually deliver one properly.

I never played to any great level myself, but I do remember one session where we just played a training match and the manager blew a whistle, meaning we all stopped where we were.  He then pointed out where we should be in relation to how the game was developing, both when attacking and defending, so we learnt some good movement from that and improved individually and collectively.

It literally is school boy stuff, but maybe that's what we need - a 'back to basics' approach?

I would have them perfecting there crossing skills so we can have more chances in front of goal.

There are many excellent training methods which would improve us. Sadly, anything that will needs to be done over time, the course of a couple of months at least before we see any improvement.

Not sure I totally agree with the argument that new training methods will take time to improve results on the pitch.

When clubs get a new manager they can often have an instant impact on performances.

Hate to say it, but the sort of thing that O'Neill did when he went to Sunderland or DiCanio at Swindon.

I would concentrate on closing down the opposition when they have the ball and passing from the back.

I still don't understand why we let the opposition have so much time on the ball, instead we just get deeper and deeper until a mistake is bound to happen costing a goal.

Then when we do get the ball at the back at some point  we just hoof it back which starts the whole process again.

You beat me to it. Id get the team to start 10 yards or so further up the pitch.
I know what you mean but with the slowness of our CBs, starting further up the pitch would be an even bigger disaster.

What should Huttton have done at the Training Ground today? -
Well, practised covering the far post better and tracking back with his man: whilst his overall performances have improved since his early-season psycho-tackling phase, he has now decided to stop tracking players coming into the far post from behind him. Gibbs' goal was partly a consequence of that and there have been other, better, examples.

I'm pretty sure earlier on in the season several people on here commented on his poor positioning; and they're right.

We should have given Heskey a banjo and made him practice in front of a cow's arse

Team pressing and fitness training to allow them to do this for 90minutes...

That alongside sight tests as many of them can't distinguish claret from most other colours...

Get Ivanhoe to run through the 3 minute warning drill, so that when Saturday 3pm comes, he is well used to taking himself off to the bunker.   Then padlock the fucker for 90 minutes.
