I don’t have any data, but besides Saliba’s goal vs Burnley I can’t remember when was the last time we scored from set piece. Many times Saka and Martinelli corners are cleared on the first post which is frustrating.

I have heard on some local tv praise for Arsenal’s set pieces and now read Kompany saying something similar about them being the best at it.

Based purely on eye test, I find West Ham way more dangerous. Ward-Prowse is perhaps the best set piece specialist and Soucek, Antonio, Zouma etc are real aerial threat.

Which team you find best in set pieces?

    Hmm, I thought it’s more a byproduct of playing attacking football. Typically top 6 teams have more corners than other teams, but historically teams like Stoke and Burnley have been quiet dangerous through set pieces, because that used to be their main weapon.
