Granted that is most likely because Stoke were sitting deep and had no intention of leaving their box. Against another opposition we might've created more from open play.
Anyways, 3 points, top of the table
Doesnt really matter how the goals come. In fact, im happy that we did score 3 from setpieces, previously this could have ended 0-0 because we couldnt score from a setpiece for ages.
We are scoring headed goals, 1 on 1s, intricate build up goals, defence splitting balls leading to goals, volleys from outside the box etc.
all we really need is a few fks and someone that can take long range shots and weve got the full package.
Its a massive positive that we can turn to setpiece dominance against the likes of stoke when we were stuck before with park the bus tactics.
