I thought Stroller had invented it - never realised Bertie Mee taught him how to do it in the first place.

    We should keep doing it. I reckon Saliba could learn. Gabby and Jesus at the back post. Granit blocking the 'keeper. Best corner routine ever. {Though that ball for Cedric on the edge of the box last season was quite cool.}
    I don't think the near post corner was ever rocket science. The amazing thing with that side was the frequency with which it worked - much to do with the brilliance of Marwood's set pieces. Think we have scored a goal like this this season but Vardy provided the flick on

    Saka and Martinelli can both take a good corner. Saliba's a big lad. And Gabby has a decent goal return for a CH. I think we should do it more.

    Gutted we didn't invent it. But at least I now know that Stroller used to do the near post flick on himself. Wish my old man was alive to ask him about it.

    Vieira looks like he hasn't a decent corner in. You don't exactly need him in the box either

    BTW, did you hear about the Compton Arms? Some local slag was trying to get it shut down because it was too noisy. And I haven't been there since we watched Barca maul us there!

    Google it, not sure where it got to.

    I did - was getting regular updates. Fortunately sense has prevailed and it has been saved
