Plenty of decent Portugese players he can tap up. Now that's combining both jobs.

Yeah can just imagine Nanny Mac trying to tell Ronaldo and Fernandes how to take free kicks.

Rashford only has one free kick goal in his career.  Something to work on there over the break. 
that's a very surprising stat. Wow.

That's because Man U normally just get awarded penalties.

Without wanting to sound like Gary Neville; the way therse set piece coaches stand on the touchline like a bouncer, it's ridicilious. They soon scurry off when 9 out of 10 corners are shit.

I think we're now top for set piece goals in the PL this season.

Only 2% of corners lead to a goal.  10% of them being good is actually pretty high!

That's pretty good when you consider 10 teams have scored more goals than us.

We are, even if it doesn't feel that way.

It surprised me when I seen that stat pop up.  Even so it shows that McPhee is doing a decent job offensively.  What about defensively from set pieces?

I have always wondered how many touches after a set-piece before it stops being after the set piece. For example the second goal Saturday had a short ball played then laid back to Rashford and then scored from his second ball and 4th touch.

Great stat! We are far from the most physical of teams too.

I hope somebody at BH has noticed who’s third and is targeting the training appropriately for our chaps!
