How many goals have we conceded from corners/set pieces? It seems like a lot, but i could be wrong

Today, QPR, Spuds at least.

Is our defence communicating, or is it summat else?
 
What a kick in the teeth that is, free kick for the winner looked a bit soft to me but all big Jan has to do is attack the ****ing ball from the cross and he clears it, doesn't attack it and benteke has a free header then we'd be complaining about throwing 2 points away instead of all 3.
 
So.....

City and Saints v unlucky to concede
'Boro, just generally ****
Everton, Spuds and Palace a lack of focus/comms at the back, mostly from crosses/corners. ****ing sloppy.

Seems We don't have a talker/leader at the back to organise and keep shape or focus
 
First: Van Anholt sticks out a lazy leg which guides the ball perfectly through a defenders legs and into the side of the net opposite Pickford's dive.
Second: Manquillo's increasingly apparent lack of athleticism, particularly in the 2nd half of matches, fails to bother Freyers as he guides an excellent cross into the box.
Third: Manquillo gives up an cheap and unnecessary freekick as the clock winds down. Benteke overpowers Kirchoff for the winner.
 
of all out bad starts over the years, this one feels a little more permanent. The squad we have is woefully short of any quality. We can't can't add to this squad in January by which time I feel we will be cut adrift. can't remember feeling so low after a game.

McNair gave the freekick away fella.

It's ok. Moyes will be out by November, by which time Tony Pulis will be available. Bring it on.
