Seeing as no-one wants to attack zonal defence at set pieces - I will play devils advocate.

1/If the zonal defence works so well why do the top three sides in the country not use it?

2/ If Zonal defence works so well, why have we conceeded more goals from set-pieces this season than any other prem team.

3/ In the good ol' days we used a zonal defence BUT not from set pieces, we always man marked at set-pieces. We won titles that way so why not now?

4/ Have the rest of the prem caught on to how we defend set -pieces and found ways to beat it? The number of free headers against us this season has been incredible!

Simple, they rely on their team to score goals. We show our entire dependancy on gerrard or torres. If they fail the entire team fails. But make no mistake, ours have been the best defence for a long time. Its going forward we struggle.

Rafa loves zonal because it's more complicated.

Rafa hates the simple stuff, it's just not chess.

  I missed this before. I never thought about Judge when I wrote the thread title. Anyone got a spare biscuit tin lid handy

I saw the title and thought I was going to be treated to some porn for breakfast. It seems I was wrong.
