    It depends if Hylton told Bree to go near post for set pieces today part of the responsibility falls on him if Bree genuinely just couldn’t hit a decent cross to implement his ideas Hylton can’t get the blame. Jones was saying Hylton was responsible for the set piece at Hull so shows he can somewhat do the job 
  • That second half sequence of short corners was atrocious. Needs to rethink his game plan

    Hylton won’t be telling Bree to hit the first man. I don’t think we can put this entirely down to Hylton not being as good as Brayne.
    Granted he’s not orchestrating that, but he will be controlling the fact we have a random player always taking up a weird offside position whilst we constantly lump it to the back post 
    That works if the delivery is correct to the back post, then the offside player is in a great position for the header back across. 

    TC did this against Coventry, ball dropped to him and we scored. It’s a common tactic, even in open play. Have seen Harry Kane do it, stand offside so you’re unmarked, and then when the ball goes wide in behind you are onside as behind the ball and unmarked to score

    Hylton is clearly not the problem, our set pieces have been fine this season. We’ve scored the 3rd most from them in the league this season. Defensively as well we are good at them, conceding the 4th least in the league. Based on goals for and against from set pieces us and Millwall are probably the 2 standout teams in the league 

    Today the problem was blatantly obvious, the set piece taker

    My sons u13 team takes better corners (short and long) than we managed today. Woeful organisation.  
    My old Reliant Robin takes better corners than we saw today.
