It hard for villa to practise defending corners. We have players who are shite offensively at corners and defenders shite at defending them.

Vicious circle.

Jesus wept. What is wrong with us? How hard can it be to defend corners?

We cant practise defending them coz none of our players can  cross them well enough to practice.

What's really embarrassing, is that they MUST practise corners AND that still can't defend them.
You can practice all you like, if the personnel are inept then it's a waste of time.

A corner against us is like a penalty.

No-one picking shittu up.  There's a gag in there but I'm too depressed to find it.

according to the Radio Lichaj was picking Shittu up..  at least he's qualified for something, he is just not good enough! get rid!  Has Warnock shot someone? he surely be any worse than some of these!

It's probably for the best. I read somewhere that the last two teams to knock Millwall out of the FA Cup got relegated. Did you know that?

I'd love to know why this game isn't being played tomorrow at 3pm though?

A demo about a hospital apparantly, I'm not certain of the full details.

We do practice corners, but we're great at defending Barry Bannans piss poor corners that almost go out for a throw in.

Shittu's first goal of the season. So everyone can defend against him except us

he's only just signed for them.

What? He's played over 20 matches for them.

oh, has he? One of the comms on Talksport said he was a new signing.

You need to have two players attacking the ball and that'll sort us, it's simple.

I imagine that in training the defenders only get to practise against Bannan corners and not someone decent putting the crosses in.
