Play for Set Pieces


Recommended Posts

I assume it means they dwell on the ball to encourage the foul and sometimes even hit the ball intentionally against the opponent closing them down for corners, as well as preferring safe passes to chance creation. Can't say I've used it much, although it might combine well with timewasting

I find more crosses go off a defender into touch, probably because the ball carrier takes the ball deeper. If you have a good corner taker it can be useful. I play Birmingham City and spend a fair bit of time on set pieces as we aren't the most gifted team technically, so I use it mainly against stronger (most of them!) teams.
