Premier League tactics analysis: Why do West Ham keep conceding corners?

In the last seasons, the crosses were preferred by the attacked teams. Chelsea chose the same approach against West Ham.

Teams usually work extra players to close task as a way to prevent dangerous vibrations in this field, so naturally there are fewer players in other places, which includes a distant pole. As a result, some teams deliberately choose to move away from the corners and with good success.

On September 13, he placed more players against the Spurs, West Ham, perhaps as a result of Chelsea’s previous success in that area.

Instead, Spurs targeted Far Post, where West Ham was less. Spurs put two attackers on a defender of West Ham in Far Post, that is, the final striker Pape Matar Sarr remained unmarked.

Spurs did not block the goalkeeper as Delap did for Chelsea, but they used to prevent it in an interesting way.

With a loop ball played on the remote pole, Potter’s West raw players tried to move from the pole to the ball. Spurs’s attackers were placed behind them, while West was able to hold the ground by blocking the path of the raw players. This prevented any West raw defenders from approaching Sarr.

With the number of players in the six yard boxes, Hermanen could not leave his line again.

Sarr headed to the ball before escaping in the celebration and pointed to the set piece coach Andreas Georgson.
