That's OK if the ball is played directly into the dummy runner for the Jimmy Ryan-type lurker to then drill it goalwards, but we weren't doing that. The only way our corners today could have been effective was if there was a man coming from way deep to meet the cross, but we didn't do that,either, as all our attackers were going in the opposite direction!
