Why didn't we have a man on the Back Post from the corner , if we did he would probably cleared it off the line for their goal.

When they put in swingers in like they did last night , there's always a chance a glancing header will go to the back post , so it's about time we did put one on.

Not commenting on the defending but I think we should leave one player up at corners, unless it’s defending a slender lead in the closing stages of a game.
