Maybe it's hard to work out a routine when the personnel likely to be involved keeps changing ? .

we dont see in prem any more the old all players start on edge of box and some run to near some to far post corners any more they used to be very effective.
Most of time now you just see all players in box standing still hoping gerrard can play the ball right onto there little heads.
One wonders how we ever score from corners really if it wasnt for sami i dont think we ever would.

Problem was in those days nobody wanted to head the ball.

Would he get in ahead of Ashley Cole, Patrice Evra or Geal Clichy ? In fact more to the point, would he get in front of Wayne Bridge, Armand Traore or Mikael Silvestre ?
In the cold hard light of day, the answer is sadly no to all of the above, including the second choice players - a sad inditement on lots of areas of our squad.

Here's a name I'll throw into the mix. Nakamura. Takes all the set pieces at Celtic - his corners are always into dangerous areas and he scores a reasonable amount too. I mentioned him on here a year ago when it became apparent that Benayoun might be replacing Garcia here. I suggested Nakamura simply because he's a similar player to those other two, with the added threat of set pieces.
Whether there's room in our squad however for another 'wide player' who isn't really an out-and-out winger I'm not so sure.
